The CZ P-09 F Nocturne 9mm pistol is the service-size, hammer-fired CZ with an optics-ready slide (CZ-USA part no. 91670). It uses the OMEGA single-action/double-action trigger mechanism and a full-size, cold hammer forged barrel, with controls placed for intuitive operation and a manual safety/decocker that users can swap. CZ-USA adds fixed luminescent sights and new texturing on the grip and other strategic areas for traction. Those traits make it a capable choice for range sessions, duty-style carry and home defense for shooters who like a traditional DA/SA pistol.
