The CZ Scorpion 3+ Carbine transforms the proven pistol caliber carbine platform with enhanced ergonomics and modular design flexibility. This 9mm carbine delivers rapid follow-up shots and exceptional handling in a compact package that excels across multiple shooting disciplines.
What Makes This Different
The Scorpion 3+ features CZ's refined operating system with ambidextrous controls and improved trigger geometry compared to earlier generations. The factory-threaded 16.3-inch barrel accepts suppressors and muzzle devices without modification, while the Magpul folding stock reduces overall length for transport and storage. Cold hammer-forged barrel construction ensures consistent accuracy and extended service life beyond standard carbine barrels.
