Understanding the Engineering of CZ P10C Compensators and How They Enhance the Shooting Experience

The advent of polymer-frame striker-fired handguns has turned the world of firearms on its head. Today, even the more traditional bastions of hammer-operated and metal-frame pistols are joining the striker bandwagon. The venerated CZ is no exception to the trend. In fact, their CZ P10 series offerings are a whole new take on the striker concept. 

In terms of ergonomics and sheer pointability, there are hardly any weapons that are equal to CZ’s trend-setting P10 series. What truly sets this weapon apart is its reliability. Unlike many other polymer pistols, the P10 and its smaller counterpart, the P10C, are extremely reliable weapons right out of the box! They don’t require any sustained break-in periods, nor do they need to be fired a few hundred times to get rid of any kinks in their internal operation. However, the weapon’s high bore axis makes the gun somewhat jumpy. In other words, the muzzle flip is quite pronounced after every shot. 

The gun’s tilt barrel mechanism flips its slide upward from the muzzle end every time a round is fired. The higher the weapon jumps in the hand, the longer the period between shots as you re-align the sights and barrel toward the target. New shooters facing this problem usually develop a flinch, and the longer it goes unchecked, the more noticeable this issue will become over time. 

Fortunately, there is a perfect solution to this problem—Herrington Arms’ HC10 3.0 Compensator! As the gasses of the firing sequence propel the round, they also push the barrel upward. Here, your HC10 compensator, with its strategically placed venting ports, pushes the barrel down, thereby counteracting and ultimately mitigating the pistol’s recoil impulse. 

By canceling out the upward flipping action of the muzzle, your compensator ensures you remain on target faster and longer. It also leads to a more pleasant and user-friendly shooting experience. In fact, even full power +P 9x19 loads may feel as mild as .380 ACP rounds!

Herrington Arms is a byword for quality accessories, and their CZ P10C compensator is one of their best products yet. You can rely on it to substantially reduce both felt recoil as well as the overall recoil impulse. It can seamlessly fit suppressor-ready threaded barrels from Primary Machine and Killer Innovations. Best of all, you won’t have to change the internals of your EDC weapon since it works well with stock springs and guide rods. 

It is built to last from time-tested and proven 6061 aluminum material. Apart from being highly durable, it’s also very light, so you won't need to fear upsetting the balance of your weapon or making it front-heavy. It has been precision manufactured for a long service life and will last as long as your CZ.
