The O.Z-9C X Combat combines the compact O.Z-9C receiver and windowless Citadel slide with a full-size X grip to create a pistol that is easier to control and handle than the O.Z-9C Compact without added weight or length. Built with ZEVs PRO match barrel and PRO Curved Face Trigger, the O.Z-9C X Combat is tailored to meet the stringent requirements of the discerning professional user. The O.Z-9C was designed and created for balance. At the heart of the O.Z-9C is our patented Steel Receiver. This solid steel frame runs the length of the entire pistol allowing the locking block to be fully integrated. The extended rails in the steel receiver help provide more than double the surface area of contact to the slide. Additional benefits include channels that clear out debris while also acting as lubricating reservoirs for high friction areas.
