This video review discusses the CZ P-09c Nocturne pistol, highlighting its concept of updating the P-09 and P-07 models with modern features. However, the reviewer expresses disappointment due to significant failures experienced during testing, including failure to go into battery and slide lock issues with full magazines. The reviewer notes that these issues were not isolated to their experience, as other YouTubers encountered similar problems, suggesting a potential production flaw. While CZ honored the warranty and fixed the issues on the tested pistol, the reviewer cannot recommend it for carry or home defense due to these concerns, despite their fondness for the original P-09.

Avoid 'riding the charging handle' on an AR-15, as this operator error prevents the bolt from fully seating, causing a failure to go into battery. Always pull the charging handle fully to the rear and release it completely to allow spring tension to seat the bolt properly. If the rifle fails to go into battery, use the forward assist or re-rack the charging handle to clear the malfunction.

The test highlights the SKS's susceptibility to debris interfering with its bolt.
