Hey guys, I have never owned a gun, planning on getting one, I have an option of CZ P10C, visually it looks just fine, but the slide is not FIRM, it is shaky when you try to move it. Store owner told me that its fine, that as soon as ammo is fed to it the slide will get firm. But the empty Glock 17 had its slide FIRM like concrete, without any bit of shaking. PLEASE tell me what you think guys, do you think the gun owner is BSing me or it might be true? The gun is not used as he claims too.

THANK YOU

I am not exactly sure what you mean by shaky. Do you mean left to right slop?
In my experience shaky or sloppy are not words that describe a CZ.

As an added thought, the slide on my CZ P07 is rock solid and firm.

 

[Slick6]

Excuse me if I could not describe properly, the slide is moving VERY SUBTLY be it back and forth (by about 1-2 mm) or side to side. The Glocks slide does not move at all.

 

[AgedWarrior]

I would not expect the CZ to do that either. Like I indicated earlier, my P07 does not have any slop or left to right play at all. I have not really looked the P10 much, but I don’t like a sloppy slide that wiggles back and forth...I would avoid it personally.

So I have a choice of either Glock 17 or CZ p10c, no Glock 19 awailAble, I assume then Glock 17 would be a better decision, but the thing is kinda big unfortunately

I am not what you would consider a Glock fan, but you gotta get what makes you happy. Have you tried any of them? Do you have the opportunity to try them?
Personally I would lean towards the CZ but for the sloppy slide. Nothing else is an option for you?

 

[Slick6]

Thank you for your advice Sir, its either Glock 17 Gen 4, CZ P10C with a shaky slide, Sig2022 or CZ 2075 Remi. Probably will still ho for CZ p10 or Glock 17, might just toss a coin.

PS Need it for home defense, SHTF situation to be honest

 

[AgedWarrior]

Good luck with that coin toss! Welcome to NGF!

 

[AgedWarrior]

So, did you make a purchase?

 

[Slick6]

Yes, Glock 19 Gen 4, my first gun ever, although ppl say its ugly, I cant see why ))

 

[AgedWarrior]

Congratulations! Give us a range report when you get a chance to shoot it some.

Like I said earlier, I am not a Glock fan, but lots of folks love em! Enjoy!

Buy a 9x19 Glock.
Oh, you already got G19.4! Congrats!
Now it's time for 20/20 brace!

Seeing that this is your first gun, you might entertain the idea of an NRA safety course, unless of course you have some experience and just have not purchased until now.

Where have you been? Have not seen much of you posting for a while. Hope all is well with you.

Thanks guys, unfortunately its not allowed to take your own damn gun to the range, its not allowed to take it anywhere out of your property, they just let you shoot a Glock which has shot (in good case) 4-5 thousand rounds - a range owned gun. This is the law here, but you can at least buy carbine and take it to the range.
Will shoot at the range until I figure something else out, at some other location.

The irony is that the Glock is made in USA, and has NRA invitations, brochures and 2nd amendment info in it, would gladly join the NRA if only I lived in the country I love so much, my second homeland USA, but of course I will take safety course at the range, both me and my family members who might have to use it.

Oh! And now I just noticed that it looks like you are living in Georgia? Yes, I guess they have much stricter laws concerning firearms. Sorry I did not pick up on that earlier!

In that case I am very excited for you being an owner now!

Hey guys, can it be a problem if slide is bit forward and is not perfectly aligned with the back of the gun? Like in this picture
