The short-recoil, DA/SA action features a curved trigger and built-in safety mechanisms, including a firing pin block (drop safety). A skeletonized ring hammer contributes to the Carry submodel’s fast, decisive trigger feel while retaining the proven Shadow 2 operating system.
The 4-inch cold hammer-forged barrel is paired with a slide that has front and rear cocking serrations and a longitudinal top rib. Iron sights include a dovetailed front post with a dot and a rear notch set in a screw-secured base for a crisp, consistent sight picture.
The forged 7075‑T6 aluminum alloy frame keeps weight manageable and durability high. Aggressively checkered Duralumin grip panels marked "CZ SHADOW 2" with the "2" logo provide secure purchase. The beveled magazine well speeds reloads, and the integral three-slot Picatinny-style rail on the dust cover supports common accessories.
Dimensionally compact at approximately 7.5 in L × 1.5 in W × 5.4 in H and about 30.7 oz unloaded, this Shadow 2 Carry balances control with concealability. It offers a 15+1 capacity using factory steel double-stack magazines and includes matching serial numbers on major components for cohesive provenance.
Origin and markings matter here: Made in Czech Republic, this pistol bears the Czech C.I.P. proof triangle with the "25" date code indicating 2025 proofing, along with the CZ‑USA, Hartford, CT. import mark.
