The CZ P-09 C Nocturne is an optics-ready update to the P-07, featuring an RMSc footprint and improved grip texture. It offers good ergonomics and accuracy for its price point, comparable to higher-end models. However, it retains known legacy issues like a fragile firing pin block roll pin and a wear-prone trigger return spring.
The LTT Beretta PX4 Storm Compact Carry 2 offers significant performance advantages, particularly its trigger and DA/SA safety features, justifying its bulk for dedicated shooters. While it conceals well with specific holster clips like DCC, its thickness and weight make it less ideal for deep concealment or tailored suits compared to micro-compacts. Holster 'wing' attachments are often deemed unnecessary.
