The CZ Shadow 2 Compact PBJ is a Taylor Customs Edition of the lighter, carry-friendly CZ Shadow 2, chambered in 9mm with a 4-inch barrel (brand part no. 91252-PBJ). CZ-USA built the Compact to keep the competition-proven handling of the Shadow 2 in a slightly smaller footprint with a noticeable reduction in weight. A forged aluminum frame holds the weight down, the slide is optic ready, and a manual safety rounds out the controls. Fiber optic front and checkered rear sights give a quick, clear sight picture in varied light. For range days, competition practice and everyday carry, it bridges the gap between sport and self-defense.
