The CZ P-09 F Nocturne delivers enhanced performance for serious shooters who demand reliability and versatility in a full-size service pistol. This optics-ready variant features a milled slide cut that accepts popular red dot sights without requiring additional mounting plates. The Nocturne's aggressive slide serrations and textured polymer grip provide superior control during rapid fire sequences.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard P-09 models, the Nocturne comes factory-equipped with an optics cut machined directly into the slide. The serrated slide surfaces extend further forward than traditional designs, offering multiple grip positions for press checks and malfunction clearing. CZ's Omega trigger system provides both double-action and single-action capability with a crisp break that measures consistently under 5 pounds in SA mode.
