I have decocked the CZ thousands of times using two fingers without any issues. A decocker is not needed.

When the spo1 compact exists it makes cz Shadow 2 compact purely a aesthetic buy but kimber raising the price of a gun $400 just to have a rail is just upsetting

I see what you mean, I have both the P-01 Omega and P-01 standard I have upgraded both with milled for red dot RMSC foot print.. I will be buying the Shadow 2 compact because there is a trigger upgrade for a flat trigger unlike everything else I've found for the P-01. I have CGW pro kit with hammer and "flat" faced trigger upgrades..... can't hold a candle to my competition CZ shadow 2 flat face trigger and CGW internals.... i just need it in a carry size now

CZ shadow 2 compact is the way to go. For the $500 difference, you can buy a Holosun 507comp and two extra mecgar magazines.

love the content guys about to buy my first pistol for my 21st birthday I've binged a lot of your videos and the information is top notch keep it up

We really appreciate the support! Let us know what you end up getting!

I'm 76 and my eyes do not like 3 dot white sights, I prefer blacked out rear and fiber front. Fiber front and rear are OK but need to be a contrast like green rear and red front. I love shooting with a dot, but my EDC does not have an optic, personal preference. I would like the S2 to have a decocker, bit I would choose the CZ over the Kimber. For me, that's a no brainer. A few months back I bought a CZ 75 and choose it over the sp01.

You should compare the DWX compact to the KDS9C. I think that’s a better comparison. Nice video guys.

Nice! I've been looking for a good comparison video on these since I do have the CZ, but found that the Kimber was spec'd so similarly. It looks great!

I own a CZ Shadow 2 compact. The trigger on it is way too light for carrying, and Cajun Gun works will tell you the same! The safety is way too mushy and much too easy to knock off safe. It needs extended safeties like the Shadow 2 full size. Anything that will fit the Shadow 2 full size internally will fit the compact. About the only thing that won't fit are the grips... If it had about a 4 to 5 lb trigger in single action it would be much better. Nobody will say they have springs to fix the mushiness of the safety. You can buy the extended safety levers that are the same ones that the Shadow 2 full size use if you can find them... CZ WILL TELL YOU THE GUN WAS BUILT TO FIT IN THE IPSC BOX. But they also want to sell them for concealed carry.

Great video, lots of detail. thanks for the review.

Thanks for watching!

Both are awesome options, currently carry the KDS9C and absolutely love it.

Great video. Literally 2 of my dream pistol's that I'd love to have in my stable.

2 good guns. Great review!

Great video. I have been considering the P01 and sending it out to get a slide cut or just going with the CZ Shadow 2 compact. Since you have both with do you like for carry?

If you are fine not having a decocker on your Cz then there is no doubt the shadow 2 is a better gun.

. I would say that You can throw extended safeties, and a CGW increased Pressure Dentent spring, on the CZ and the secure safety problem is ended. I carry it Cocked & Locked No Problems, and I'm used to carrying 1911's for years.... The CZ is just so much lighter, and shoots so much better than anything in its class... I cal it a competition carry gun. The Bottom line is if you shoot better with the CZ, then that's what you should carry... It could mean the difference between coming home or not.... Just Sayin'

Damn this is a hard choice. When I added a bigger safety to th CZ it cured the deficient safety it comes with. That KDC is freeking AMAZING, I shoot them the same. Just too darn hard to choose!!

One point to consider is that extended safeties are available for the CZ if that is your biggest problem with carrying it.

S2C ALL DAY! Only thing i want done is night sights. I dnt like red dots on all my pistols. I dnt use the safety. So that dnt bother me.

I prefer the kimber but 5he price is ridiculous,and the grip is pretty thick.

Same. Got to hold it today and it's definitely a tad thicker than my S2C. I got medium hands and I felt that the s2c I could grip it firmer and wraps around better on my hands. Kimber looks Great in person and it'll light as heck.

Answer this for me. I see a cheaper version of the kds9c rail pistol but it is a 10 rounder. If i get the 18 round magazine i should be good right. Its like 1325. The barrel length is 4 inches tho. I live in GA so capacity is not an issue here.

I would think you should be good.

I have both. Have not added an optics to the CZ but do have a Holosun on the Kimber. I bought a kit from Kimber that has the optics plate and co-witness sights! How cool is that! A thing to take in consideration is that the Kimber is noticeably to me lighter to carry. Neither gun has failed after hundreds of rounds.. The video mentioned the CZ had less recoil but might be because the Kimber is lighter? Both are excellent guns!! FYI, I have a number of KImbers and a CZ Tactical Sport.

So basically put on some Lok palm grips CZ and problem solved. lol 😂

I am a CZ guy, but the Kimber has a firing pin block (drop safe) where the Shadow does not. I would carry the Kimber over the Sahdow, and I hate myself for saying it.
