Glock 19 vs CZ 75D Compact PCR for Concealed Carry 🔰 Which gun is better?

- Which gun do I prefer for concealed carry, the Glock 19 or the CZ 75D Compact PCR?
➡️ For me there are a number of points to consider and it is definitely a subjective opinion, but I think you can take a lot of facts from it and apply them to your own. This is not a review about which gun is better!
While the Glock is the most common pistol in America the CZ might be better if you are just starting off.
A detailed comparison of these two guns, specifically for CCW.

#RTKSurplus #Glock19 #CZ75DCompact
Thank you for (1) no heavy metal head banger music intro and (2) cameos of you blowing away milk cartons, targets at 5 feet, and small animals or large insects that last half the video and (3) saying, "what's up, TH-cam?"
But mainly, thanks for getting right to it and listing the differences and moving on!
As someone who can't stand that stuff, I appreciate the feedback! I deliberately try to do these videos in the way I wish most reviews were done.
DA/SA with a decocker is the only 9mm semi-auto I want to own, & nothing else can trump that.
I have both. For some reason the PCR feels better. It may be the holsters I use for each. The PCR is def the gun I like more all around.
Just got my new CZ 75 D PCR 2 weeks ago. Took 6 months to find one. Most accurate and best shooting 9mm I have ever shot. It feels like CZ custom built it for my hand. Put my Glock away after shooting the CZ.
@ D B; BRAVO 👍👍
Your searches for a better Fire arm are over. No more press checks no plastic. I'll bet good money that any future buying will be for hobby sake. No
The only thing these two have in common is size, other than that it’s personal preference. And my preference is the CZ 75D PCR!
For me the CZ is way easier to shoot than the G19
Good review. Balanced. I am a PCR fan but understand the merits of the Glock But...the PCR is better lookin and is overall a great gun for multiple purposes
Yep its both better looking and, in my opinion, easier for most people to shoot accurately. The only reason I carry the glock now is only because it's a little more concealable. Otherwise, the PCR gets the nod.
@@b0men how is it more concealable when it has a much bigger slide and even grip?
I responded to your other comment with why. Check there.
I started with a PCR as my very first gun, moved to Glocks for a while and have now come back into CZ’s.
Glocks are great guns. They are super utilitarian, incredibly simple and I can have every single spring and part taken out of a Glock in about a minute and a half, conservatively. CZ’s, especially the decockers, take significantly more time, work and attention to fully take apart and put back together. There are more parts that could potentially break and the parts aren’t quite as easy to get as Glock parts are.
Basically, if we’re talking about a pure duty use handgun, something which needs to be so simple that even a grunt can fix it, it’s really hard to beat a Glock. However, if we’re talking about guns which come with a little more pride of ownership, that take a little more know-how and care to work on and can even be considered heirloom guns that’ll stay in the family for many years, CZ’s really are great. In my experience, they have been every bit as reliable as any of my Glocks but they just offer a little something more to me and my shooting experience. It’s a little hard to quantify - I just get more out of shooting CZ’s.
All handguns are tools but not all handguns are *just* tools. A Glock to me is a really great tool but its still *just* a tool.
Kyle Stewart totally agree..
well said
If you've shot one Glock, you've shot most of them, which makes the manual of arms for each virtually the same. I personally own a CZ-75D PCR as I prefer DA/SA over striker fired handguns. And the CZ just plain looks sexy.
You got it.
@ Kyle Stewart; $100. bucks says you didn't have to fix your PCR at all
It is a tool, and a very reliable at that, they all are.
Plastic Glocks are Toys for boys that like to brag about them.
That’s not even a fair contest....CZ 75 all day!!!
10 ounces is a lot heavier when carrying all day however.
The CZ is my EDC. Replaced the guide rod with stainless, the firing pin (CGW extended firing pin), the pin block spring (lightened it up) and the firing pin retaining pin (DO NOT get the solid pin replacement, get the rolled pin). It’s a real gun, not a ballistic tic tac box...and even as a compact, it’s the most accurate (for me) gun I own (two Beretta’s, a Colt 1911 and two S&W). Only drawback for me - and it’s based on an actual advantage overall - is the low sight radius (because of the internal rail system). Makes the gun more level and balanced, and accurate, but also lowers the profile of the slide so lobster claw is better than over the top if your hand gets sweaty. I have a Vedder holster for tac classes and an Urban Carry lockleather for my day to day EDC. The gun is a dream. The Glock is a lot easier to find, but in my mind there’s just no comparison. If I crave the Glock experience, I’ve always got my nephew’s NERF gun to play with.
Hey george evans --- my pcr is edc since 2017. Check out Tommy Theis holsters. His leather/kydex IWB still has great retention and performance --- have G10 grips on it, Tru-Glo sights, ss guide rod. Good Luck!
@ George Evans; 👍👍
I've been impressed, but not favorably, and oh so tired of the stories I hear of ( I got Glock ) and so on..
Folks seem so proud of them- selves, they can't hardly wait to inform that, as if to say some how owning one or three gives them some sort of completion to their lives. Even their reasons for on going bla bla bla, have never convinced me to invest in a GLOCK. After having the a PCR, it begs the question (why the hell) a NERF gun. 😳😉 2A 🇺🇸
@@710p5 yes Glock owners carry a reputation, and for good reason. They will lecture you for 20 minutes on why you're a moron if you don't get a Glock, but a lot of the ones I've mrt have never tried anything but Glocks all their lives
You are one funny dude... lmao "I can decock it" picture of bruce Jenner in the corner lmao
DwightG haha yeah that one took me a second
Yeah --- PCR is my EDC. Got it in a Theis hybrid IWB holster. Best rig for IWB I ever had. Did swap out the factory sights for tru-glo tfx --- the factory grips felt great --- but I went for some thinner G10 grips --- love this gun. ---
To avoid the controversy i have them both... Excellent guns!
Thanks for the excellent review, I went with the PCR.
I don't mind the extra weight of the PCR. Target re-aquisition is extremely important. The extra weight isn't objectionable at all. And the CZ is much better looking. :-)
I actually find the pcr's extra weight doesn't help a ton in recoil or target re-acquisition speed. The funky glock grip angle allows me to get my hand up much higher on the gun which eats recoil pretty well, so I've found it shoots a little flatter despite being lighter. Really a marginal difference though.
The Glock 19 is my oldest gun and I’ve never had any issues with recoil. Especially given I first shot a Glock 43. Only gun I own that preforms noticeably better with recoil is the Shadow 2. I bet the regular 75 compact would be a nice shooter through with its steel frame.
Nice review, but the PCR is what I decided to carry. It just feels better in my hands and I shoot it better than the Glock. I even tried the 43 but wanted more capacity. No disrespect to Glock, they are fine guns, just that the PCR does it for me. I shot several pistols before I decided on my EDCC and PCR won it for me.
This 5yr old video gave me the precise info i was looking for .. great video and still very relevant today. thank you
Thank you sir! Glad it helped. Appreciate the view.
PCR for me put on thin grips and CZ custom "8" style night sights my EDC nothing wrong with Glocks But I shoot the CZ better and have had ZERO hiccups with the weapon. But no hiccups with the 19 either. Just pick what feels good and practice till you are comfortable with it cannot go wrong with either
All my CZ's are dead on accurate, also love CZ rifles.
CZ = Porsche. Glock = Honda.
Meg-Gar mags for the PCR are excellent and cost about the same as Glock mags. Pretty sure that's where CZ gets them from. They look and feel identical except one is way more expensive because it has CZ stamped on it instead of Mec-Gar.
I carried all kinds of Glocks for so many years. I recently fell in love with this exact CZ. I’ve been trying to find a PCR for a while now. Not easy to come by in my experience. Also I’m going to appendix mainly because 4 o,clock iwb has been destroying every pair of pants I own. And I do want the hammer and longer first pull. Neat Glock modification. Maybe I’ll consider that.
@ MrLooseSkrews; How about ?
Consider that Glock has not and will not build a better gun because it has a captive fan base of "Saps" that are happy to spend $80. + on a $2.00 plastic "Glock"Gadget" to install so they can brag about it.
I used to edc glock 19. After tearing my bicep I found the glock grip angle painful to shoot. I switched to a CZ p01. My biggest only complaint with the cz would be unavailability of certain sights. I have the SDP version and a cajunized p01. Both triggers are great but SDP is unreal.
Yeah lack of aftermarket support is one one of the drawbacks of a niche brand like CZ. And yeah the SDP is legit.
Definitely the CZ PCR over the Glock. The Glock is so over rated, there are other guns from other manufactures that are just as good if not better. CZ being one of them.
Nope I have a CZ 75 not as reliable as my Glock . I’m not impressed with CZ 75
Glock is not overrated you keyboard soldier. They're known for being comfortable, reliable, decent shooting, and decent pricing. And they are all that.
@@bobyjones3905Yea right you don’t own CZ stop BSing lol.
When I was working in Afg as a TL, on the 3rd or 4th day of weapons issue (what??no weapons) I let all my guys pick away it was funny all went for Glocks/ and the M4s ( DD, Colt) well as typical in the PMC world I was left with a CZ75 and an absolutely shitty Egyptian AK. I came to love that CZ it fit my hand so well, was way more accurate for me then a G19, was a bitch to find a holster for and of course it didn't come with a holster so I modified a leather one. latter my pop sent me a kydex. After a couple more days of Attrition I picked up a decent primary gun, but wouldn't release that CZ.
Just got a Vedder holster for my CZ 75D PCR. It’s literally perfect, save for the fact that, as you pointed out, it does take about 4 weeks to get it custom made.
@ George Evans; Can't get past the cheap plastic sound of Kydex,
Notice an abundance of plastic striker fire guns displayed in plastic holsters, what a crying shame. Leather for my PCR.
@@710p5 just curious - what leather holster did you go with ? i went with a versacarry OWB but only carry it in winter clothes - hoodies mostly - summer, i carry a taurus or kimber - easier to conceal with shorts and t shirt -
3:03 - 3:04, I see what you did there, LoL!
I have a leather holster and both guns fit in the same holster. I'm not worried about it falling out.Ok retention the cz is a bit tighter. I'm not doing any running, jumping. I'm old guy. Not fond of kydex.
Cajun Gun Works has every upgrade imaginable for the CZ 75 series of pistols. Kydex holster a also readily available. I carry a modified Glock 19 on occasion, but my go to carry gun is the CZ 80 % of the time. I shoot the CZway better. The sweat problem is the biggest reason I carry the glock. I carry both in the 4 oclock position. Good video, good comparison. Thank you sir. God bless.
Picking up CZ 75D manana.. love your channel!
Thank you sir - enjoy the blaster!
I own Both
Thanks for this very balanced presentation. Really interesting about the device that acts as a pseudo-safety for the glock. My natural inclination is to feel more secure with a DA first-strike and hammer, but with a good bit of holster training, who knows what's possible...
Yep. I came from DA/SA to the glocks, so having the Striker Control Device (aka "The Gadget") is a must for me.
if you are prone to accidentally limp wristing it can cause the glock to jam where as the cz75 is immune to this
Held one at the gun store today. Felt so much better and more concealable than my glock. Same price as my glock Ima have to pick it up
The glock actually conceals better in a holster. Shorter grip and flat slide release so the holster will be slimmer.
Great review! I actually looked at both of them recently. The Glock fit a little better in my very large hands, the CZPCR & Compact are just too small for my hands. I actually liked all 3 of them, but they all are too small for my hands and I did not feel comfortable any of with them.
Yup I get that. Glocks aren't as ergonomic but, in my opinion, they still fit pretty well and allow for a nice high grip.
I agree the 19 had the best fit and feel. I am 6’-2” and can carry a full size. I am going to give up on compacts. It just does not work for me. I was laughing after I looked at them because it reminded me of the time that I bought a jacket that was a size small on a 85% clearance figuring that I could stretch it out. A month later it was in the Salvation Army bin....LOL!
@@PaulJersey the Glock 19 is considered a compact firearm.
I noticed this just trying to downgrade from a 19 to a single stack Glock. Wasn’t comfortable.
You can get wider grips, I have pretty long fingers so I use the LOK Palmswell grips and they fit my larger hands perfectly.
Great video. Thank you for the side by side comparison. I wanted to ask you the brand of sights on both guns. I like to keep them stock as much as I can, but do like having good and brightly visible sights. Thank you.
Nice video. I just purchased a PCR a few weeks ago. It’s already getting the Cajun treatment with Trijicon night sights.
I also ordered a JM Wing Claw 2.5 holster.
I see you have the new style LOK grips. How do you like those? I went with Armory Craft aluminum grips, but I wouldn’t mind having a set of G10 grips on the side.
Nice, you'll love it! I carried mine in a Wing Claw 2.5 as well. JM cant be beat. On grips: G10 is absolutely better if you carry it, particularly if you carry somewhere humid/sweaty. The aluminums are nice but they get too slippery whereas the LOK g10s are much grippier even when moisture is intense. I used to rock the aluminums.
I carry both - primarily my G19. Finding a good holster for the PCR is a pain in the butt, however once you find one it's not a big deal to carry it.
yep finding good holsters for guns like a PCR is def a pain
3:03 killed me 😂
i personally more comfortable around gun that have safety lock or in this case DE cocker over the Glock that is load and lock ready to go but i was wishing CZ had DE cocker and safety like my Beretta M9 that i love . but hay still has some safety and its looks good that why i sold my Glock19 to buy CZ PCR instead.
I appreciate how you threw in the short version.
I would pick the CZ 75D compact 100% of the time much much more accurate the D Cocker is a great idea and if you just get the MCARBO spring kit for it it’s smooth out the trigger pull like butter it’s not even close the CZ 75D compact every time over that blockySquare G 19
CZ 75 D First 👌❤
You couldn't pay me to carry a Glock. I've carried a CZ 75 clone for several years and much prefer that platform. I definitely like the double action hammer fired over striker fired.
Totally awesome video. I live in CA and we are very limited on thg he handguns we can purchase. The CZ 75 PCR is 1st on my list. I have tried to like the Glock but it doesn't fit me well in the hand, plus i would need alot of changes to make it mine. My wife tried the G19 and digs it.
I am wondering if you could detail the upgrades you did to the CZ or do you have a link to a video for that already. Good job on the vid. New sub here
Look at Cajun gun works or CZ custom shop.
I resisted and resisted Glock. But, every time I picked one up I couldn't deny that it fit me well and I was very accurate with it. So i found a great deal on a 19. The Glock 19 is my home protection go to, but I have others for carry due to size and comfort. I'm a little pudgier now and my shield is just better for me. Now....... I have lusted over CZ for years. Ive rented the P01 and it was absolutely amazing and super accurate for me. Either a PCR or P01 will be my next purchase. I just can't afford to add to the arsenal right now and I have more than enough for my everyday needs.
Great video but I’m still torn between a G19 or the cz 75 pcr. I’m not a skinny guy and I live in Deep South Texas where it’s always hot and humid. So I sweat. But to be honest I just might get both. I got a G23 Gen5 so I don’t know from this video both are great firearms lol. Have a good one
@@Rex-bo1rf they’re both good. I live in the Deep South too and the Glock is the easier carry in the heat
Great comparison! Thanks
I got enough belly to be quite decided that I will never appendix an SAO or DA/SA. The smooth rear end of the Glock is nice.
I own two Glocks but I prefer CZ. But my P 365 has been flawless and it's what I carry because both the 19 and 75 compact print on my small frame.
I have the PCR and just ordered those same grips four days ago should get them soon great gun and I really like it
I carry a PCR, but considering the G19 for one reason: It's easier to replace when stolen or confiscated.
Yep. PCR is kind of a unicorn. I could get a new g19 in 30 minutes.
@@b0men Actually, I just bought The Unicorn CZ. P01 steel frame. Model 99041. Sweetest shooting P01 on the planet. Makes obtaining a PCR look like finding one on every street corner. Took me years to find one.
@@b0men The 99041 is hardest of the three most difficult CZ pistols to find. The other two lesser unicorns are the CZ SP01 Tactical in .40 cal and the 97BD. All I need to complete the trifecta is the 97BD. Wish me luck!
@@Greenmachine305 haha good luck! I think they're just now releasing the Shadow 2 Orange though. Go big or go home man...
I actually saw a 99041 behind the glass in one of my local gun stores once. I was shocked and had to do a triple take. Couldn't believe it.
@@b0men Thanks, bro. Not gonna put an orange in my collection. I'm a practical shooter, not a compettition shooter. I dig it, but just gravitate toward pistols that can be used for ccw or home defense which is why I like rails. I already have an Accu Shadow 2. Gonna scrape up the cash for a 97BD (for when I find one) and I think my collection is complete. Cheers.
I've been a CZ fan since I found them, but I have had a G26, and now am in the process of getting a G19 finally. I think it will be good, though I purposely waited until I found the CZ's I wanted before getting the G19. I do like my PCR and P01!
Glocks are bulky and their triggers are terrible. CZ is comfortable in the had the trigger is incredible out the box and accurate
Good video, enjoyed it but with the CZ PCR having an aluminum frame and not steel wouldn’t rust be equal on these two pistols?
Nah, even with the aluminum frame there's still more metal parts on the CZ that are prone to rust. Grip screws, for example, can rust pretty easily. And some internals if you carry somewhere really humid. Its not the end of the world but I've found that I can sweat all over the glock and I just haven't had any rust at all. BUT very small issue, in my opinion. Tools sometimes rust! No biggie. Easy to remove.
Aluminum doesn't rust. Great review tho
Newsflash: aluminum (frame of the CZ Compact) does not rust either
I am very new to firearms. I have a Glock 19 and I hear a lot about dry fire practice. I’ve had several lessons, been to the range several times, but want to understand what I can do at home to get better. Any videos etc that you recommend to get the best dry fire training?
Great question man! Here is the routine that changed the game for me:
PRE REQ: watch this video first. Dry fire is useless without this concept: th-cam.com/video/li0rGtXh23I/w-d-xo.html
Once you've got this concept down...
1. Buy Steve Anderson's "Refinement and Repetition" book. This is a book of drills with explanations on how to get the most out of every drill.
2. Get a shot timer. Dry firing without one is half as valuable. You want to be able to track par times, etc.
3. Buy or make some scaled down dry fire targets, to use for the drills. You can either cut your own out of cardboard or order some from Ben Stoeger Pro Shop. You want scaled down USPSA targets.
good luck man!
CZ any day over Glock. I don't buy a pistol to Gucci it up or have to buy extra parts to make it safer or work the way I want it to work. I buy it to meet a need and CZ works fine for me right out of the box. Have no problem finding holsters for my CZs. CZ is usually less expensive than the Glock too. I have a Gen 5 Glock 19 with >1000 rounds through it and I still don't care for it. But that's why they make chocolate and vanilla.
I think the Glocks are totally fine out of the box, but since they're so EASY to modify, people buy all sorts of crap they dont need for them. Instead of just learning to shoot. Both great guns
I got PCR and Glock 29SF for switching from time to time. PCR is a beauty and fun to shoot, while Glock 29SF is a smaller package but powerful cannon.
CZ ALL DAY
This is isn't even close the CZ far superior in every way! I own both and would never carry the Glock if the CZ is there. Better built; better shooter CZ all the way!!
Really depends. CZ is definitely the *nicer* gun, but the g19 carries better.
Do you carry without a mag inside the Glock? Becasue they are the exact same length once you put the mags in. The CZ mag sits flush and the glock mag sticks out negating that difference completely. As far as me the PCR conceals better because of the smaller slide and rounded grip. Where as the Glock grip looks like I have a 2x4 under my shirt. Also the PCR is an aluminum alloy frame that has a finish on it. You really don't have to worry about it rusting. The only rust I have on mine is the grip screw that comes in contact with my body in humid ass Florida.
For one thing, everybody's body and mode of carry is not going to be the same. I'm talking explicitly about AIWB carry. Your experience will be different if you carry some other way, or are shaped differently.
My Glock disappears on me in the appendix position. My CZ does not. It's also not about length it's about angle. If you stack them on top of each other, the CZ grip absolutely protrudes more because it has a traditional grip angle (curved, as you said). Whereas the Glock grip has the "Glocky" grip angle which conceals a little bit better in my experience. I carried the PCR for about 2-3 years and still own/love it. The 19 absolutely carries better for ME, however.
For reference, here's a demo in the first 10 seconds of this. th-cam.com/video/TC6V1BWNssA/w-d-xo.html
I agree with the Glock grip angle concealing better which is funny because it is something I noticed and have never heard anybody mention it until now. Sorry if I came off as a dick. But I also own both of these pistols and compared them extensively. I carry strong side so that may be a factor as well. Stay safe!
No worries. And yup carry position matters a TON here. If you carry strong side I can absolutely see them being almost identical to carry, with the PCR being even a little better perhaps. I'm specifically talking about appendix carry in this vid, however. I don't carry strong side anymore since switching.
Correction @ 6:00 - CZ 75D PCR has an aluminum alloy frame. Aluminum doesn't rust. So that one should be a tie (both having steel slides only).
True, but I've almost never had a gun rust and I carry somewhere pretty humid. I've had sights rust, but never a slide or frame.
@rtksurplus Just curious, why did you take the stock cc sights off the PCR? Not a Block fan but not gonna hate on them. People love them for a reason.
I think the CZ is more concealable. The curve in the grip makes the shirt flow around it.
Hi, Which of the 2 has a more comfortable better grip for medium size hand ? the CZ P-01 or a Glock 19
Ya know,? It's a dam shame to buy the perfect gorgeous CZ gun and then "rash it cheap" with a plastic CRAP Kydex holster.
Look @ the condition of that PCR!
What a shame. Plastic holsters + plastic G guns. Glock offers so many options because no body likes the Glock guns as they are. Never met a Glock owner that doesn't brag about how they dumped money into their plastic guns.
lol okay boomer
There's one factor you've apparently not considered, probably because you're so experienced. As a newbie, I want to have the same kind of action on my guns so that practice on one doesn't undermine carrying another. I have 2 guns, both CZs, both decocker models. If I am in a dangerous situation I want my actions to be programmed. That means, clearly, no mix of safety and decocker. But it also means that the triggers should be similar. So, DA/SA, not a mix of DA/SA and striker.
I remind myself regularly how bad I am overall, even though my aim and control are much better than they should be given my inexperience. Every time out I make some mortifying error. I want to keep things as consistent as possible.
I 100% agree with consistency of platform for a new shooter (or any shooter really who wants to get better versus just collect guns). In this video I am not advocating both, but rather I am comparing the two. All of dry fire is with Glocks currently. As well as all of my competitions. That being said. I’ve dry fired enough with DA/SA that if I were to run my Shadow in a match I’d be fine, provided I get some dry reps in prior (every now and then I do this because the Shadow is just so much fun). Whether one goes for DA/SA or Striker, dry firing regularly is the key to success. "It’s the Indian, not the arrow." That sort of thing.
i agree with most of what you are saying - i do not understand when/where a decocker would come into play in a stressful situation -----
@@lonnieberkheimer7575 I was just saying that I find it safer for all guns to have the same action. Boy, this is an old post!
CZ all day, no contest.
I see you went for the race hammer and fiber optic PCR sights on the CZ from Cajun Gun Works. I went with the Trijicon PCR sights myself. I like that upgrade on the Glock 19 too, in my mind, that mitigates much of my skepticism of carrying appendix for it. Only potential downside is that 4.5 pound trigger. Still though, it's nice.
How do you like the Trijicons on the PCR? I was on the fence about which to get for a while.
b0men I like them. I like the large white for in the front. The rear has tritium inserts too but they're not white dots, but stainless steel inserts. They still pick up fantastically though day or night.
I went with the Trijicon night sights as well. I pretty much require night sights for a carry gun.
Those fiber optic sights look great though.
Great informative video, well done...
Hi OP,
Why'd you feel the need to hop up a lot of internal parts on the CZ? I remember cheap plastic guide rods, but other than that?
I shoot USPSA and IDPA, so every improvement to the trigger helps. And if you ever have the chance to dry fire or shoot an upgraded CZ, like this one, you will understand why :) Plus, I do the work myself so it didn't really cost me much to do it.
I've never tried competition. Have fun.
b0men Trigger return springs, firing pin roll pin, and slide stops, are sometimes the things that break on CZ75s, did you ever have any issues?
3:04 i almost spit my fucking coffee out LMAO
Imo..the cz's are so much slimmer in the slide. They slide into a waistband much easier..the glocks are lighter, but the slide is a giant squared off block, and is much thicker to try to slide into a waistband
Although the CZ slide is slimmer, they are still larger in a KYDEX holster than a Glock. This is because the slide release control protrudes a lot from both sides, which requires additional clearance in a holster. The Glock is still slimmer when carrying in a kydex holster (not hybrid/leather etc) than the CZ, because of this. The controls are flat.
The Glock grip angle is also much better for AIWB carry because it angles up towards you as opposed to out to your side.
This comes from a very long time carrying both in the exact same way.
@@b0men thanks for reply. I have also owned and carried both (full size cz75) and for me, the volume/size of the slide is so much smaller than the giant rectangular block of the glock slide, it effortlessly slid into the waistband much easier than the glock 19 (or the 26). The controls def poked out more like you said tho, while the glocks are smooth on the sides. The glocks are also vastly lighter, which helps. But to me in terms of overall comfort, the glock's thick, blocky slide makes it worse than the more natural, slimmer shape of the cz
@@b0men as far as the grip angle goes, wouldn't that depend on the cant? I've never owned a Glock or CZ to date, but EDC carry various guns AIWB exclusively and grips never bother me. It's the barrel digging into my groin (while sitting only) on most compacts that bother me because I actually prefer a cant slightly backward or straight up as opposed to forward like they often teach.
On a side note: I really liked the video, but you dwelled on ADs a lot. The best thing to do when re-holstering, is to simply remove the holster, follow the cardinal safety rules, re-holster, then put the unit (holster and gun) back into/onto your pants. I really like that Glock gadget though and appreciate you mentioning it! Never being a Glock fan, I don't think I've ever heard about that nifty guy and will definitely be going that route when the day I finally become a Glock owner comes. I'll for sure own a CZ some day too BTW.
@@brentreeve7554 Unfortunately I have to mention ADs because, if not, there will be a million comments from people who hate AIWB talking about that :) So it's best to just shut that down pre-emptively.
As far as your question, I don't have any issues with holsters jabbing me in the groin because I only carry in very long holsters. I carry my glock in a g34 length holster. It clears my pelvic bone, is more comfortable when sitting, and acts as a rudder to tuck the gun in, offering better concealment.
When it comes to grip cant, I really dont know. I just know the CZ grip angle didnt conceal as well as the glocks. It's longer and tends to hang out more.
The aluminum frame of the PCR doesn’t rust either so I’m not sure why frame goes to the Glock because of “rusting”. I think the frame of the PCR is miles superior to the Glock. I mean you have the under cut filed out of the grip as well as filed out a 2nd finger groove in the trigger guard. You also have grip tape on it. How can you say the frame is better when you’ve obviously had to take a file and sanding to it to make it fit your hands better and be more grippy? I used to carry a G19 but it’s the PCR all the way now. Feels and shoots much better IMO. I’m more accurate as well.
It's simple - the glock just carries better.
Aluminum doesn't rust!! :)
Technically it does, but aluminum oxide forms a surface layer around the metal that doesn't allow oxidation to further penetrate into the structure.
i bought glock19 because every body was taking about it and i got good deal on it and the place i bought the glock 19 dont had cz 75 compact to i try it after month or so i become across CZ 75 PCR in gun store and hold it in my hand and i become in love with it in first look and love how fit perfectly in my hand then i sold my glock19 and bought that beauty and take it home and we lived happy after .
what holster are you using for it?
Is there anyone alive that would actually pick that crappy glock over that cz masterpiece?
king bibibear yes.. that crappy Glock is the gold standard you troll
I have both. But let's see. The Glock is lighter, has fewer parts, is easier to completely disassemble, can be run with 33 round factory mags, parts are cheaper, more holster options,...
Bottom line, I wouldn't own a pistol that looks like a piece of wood scrap.👎
CZ is a design masterpiece 👍
Guns are tools. I don't really care what my hammer looks like as long as it gets the job done, is easily used, and can take a beating.
@b0men - thanks for the video. Just purchased a P01 and love it. Looking to replace the grips with Lok grips. How do you like the pattern that you show on this video? Many thanks!
You'll love the P01. The parttern is called Matrix texture. For concealed carry, I think it's the best one they offer because it offers a good grip but wont chew you up underneath your shirt, assuming you carry IWB without an undershirt.
If you DONT plan to carry it IWB ever, I'd get their more aggressive texture, like the Bogies.
@@b0men thank you! I contacted LOK grips a couple days ago regarding custom colors so I’m still waiting for their reply.
I have both like them very much but I hate the fact that it's hard to rack the slide on the CZ. I tend to sling shot it. No rails for a weapon light on the CZ so that is why my Glock is my edc. Still love my CZ though!
CZ 75D Compact has under frame rail for light
P-01, not the Compact.

Is there a flock with a non polymer frame? Handguns with polymer frames feel like toys to me. Just my humblest opinion
I'll take the cz on this one.
*glock. Not "flock". Auto-correct...
The polymer guns tend to carry better, which is the only reason I opt for the Glock for EDC. Noticeably lighter and flatter controls, making it smaller in a holster.
b0men yeah. The glock is more tactical in a scenario where you need to draw your weapon faster than the other guy. And it's lighter. But if I'm going to buy a handgun, I want it to have some weight and a little bit more durability. A cz or 1911 just feels like a real gun to me.
To each their own, though.
I have both a CZ P-01 (Cajunized) and a Gen 5 G19. I love both of these guns and have carried both. As far as shooting a series of accurate shots, the CZ is better. But where the G19 beats the CZ is with the first shot. I'm faster and more accurate with the G19 on the first shot. For that reason I carry the G19.
Yup I'd agree with that. I've thought about dropping in the DA pull reduction kit from CZC because of the pull length on the DA shot. Slows me down a ton in matches when trying to get A-zone hits at speed. CGW makes a good RRK as well but there's a visible set screw, which causes issues in some divisions.
Can The PCR work in a P01 holster? I ask because PCR holsters are hard for me to find anywhere, but the P01 holsters are all over the place.
Cominnolli makes a great aftermarket safety for the Glock.
Also, unless you’ve replaced the firing pin retaining pin on the CZ 75, you shouldn’t be dry firing it.
LOL you can use a snapcap dude. Guns are tools, not fine china. Run the gun.
I have both, but I prefer the CZ 75D PCR.
The PCR is a great pistol.
CZ USA way better, real gun
Own and love both but each serves a different purpose.
What is difference between cz p 10c and cz p 75 c?
Actually very helpful..last simi auto I carried regularly was a gen 3 glock 33.didn't like the gun.got into revolver.picked up a sig 3-5 xl don't own one yet but felt nice.like metal but not here too.1..gadget for sig?2 s/d action equivalent of 365 xl ..dimensionally?exist?thx
What have you done to your PCR? I hate the trigger on my PCR I think I might go with one of those flat triggers that are being used on CZs. I also have a PO7 and i feel like it blows the PCR out the water, but that’s probably bc of the Omega system.
I've done everything listed in the Cajun Gun Works pro package EXCEPT the reach reduction kit. The trigger on my PCR is incredibly smooth/crisp now and I've even shot matches with it. Do you hate the trigger itself or the pull weight/travel? The answer to this is what determines the right fix.
Simply swapping out serrated trigger for CGW “old style” trigger is a big plus without an overhaul of all parts. Look it up on CGW website. Start there. (Also get reusable trigger pin while at it) I also went with 15 pound hammer spring and 16 pound recoil spring ( both slightly lighter than stock). Soften but don’t go too soft without doing the full defensive package. I would not do the pro package on PCR as it includes short reset which is simple too light for carry
I'm actually one of those weirdos who LIKES the serrated trigger. I find if you shoot outside somewhere humid and sweaty, it helps keep things consistent.
Video fails to mention the greatest feature of all, unique to the PCR.
The nub chamber indicator on pop of the slide. Also the unique characteristic of the slide itself,, as it side the frame rather the over the frame. CZ 75D PCR. by far is superior to the Plastic Glock.
If 7oz. Is a trouble; man up.
if you shoot the pcr enough (which you haven't) you would learn that the chamber indicator gets stuck over time and is no longer reliable. That's why I don't even mention it here. It's not worth using.
But for you this would not be an issue, because your gun rarely gets shot.
Dude try the Hogue grip for that Glock. They are Awesome!
Is the frame width/ slide width on the PCR the same as an SP01? Haven't been able to find a PCR locally to measure, but I could compare to my wife's SP01. Thanks
about the same but the SP01 obviously weighs more. both double stack. SP01 mags work in a PCR, for reference.
I got the CZ75 compact I’m not impressed I’ve twice to have the slide not going all the way forward and it hard to eject the round . Plus it’s hard to rack because the slide is so thin . I trust my Glocks much more never had a failure and I have 4 Glocks
prob riding the slide
@@b0men no
The point of people telling you to take their word for a weapon being unloaded is that you shouldn’t take their word for it and should STILL check it. Discipline. Show them empty. No exceptions.
Nah on youtube its just annoying. Would you want everyone in the movies to stop, look at the camera, and show you that their gun is a prop?
Any holsters y’all would recommend for a small guy that’s 5’5 like me? Tryna carry the CZ concealed and this is my fav model of it
Hoop that shit
BTW what sights are those on the Glock19?
I sold my Glock 19 gen 4 so I could buy my CZ PCR, I also own a CZ SP-01 and I am getting ready to purchase a CZ P-07. I sold my soul and belong to the CZ cult.
You will love the CZ P-07!! I have the tactical in urban grey and it is dead on!!
I sold my glocks yesterday and just bought the pcr . i think I'm finally liberated
The p07 will make you fall in love every time you shoot it
Kibito Kai I sold my CZ to buy Glock. No regrets.
@@foreverjericho I'm not saying you're a liar but I definitely don't believe you
Which do you feel is most ergonomic for smaller hands?
The CZ is more ergonomic but I get a better grip with the glock, and I have small hands.
Ergos does not always equal optimal grip.
