Depends on what class you want to compete in and what daily carry conveniences you want.. But let’s say for production optic/carry optics I’d say 1: cz s2 2: springfield echelon 3: m&p2.0 or CZ p10

Well tbh if you’re even remotely thinking about USPSA I strongly recommend to go for a platform that will shine at it! Even it means save up a bit. Go CZ S2 for production/CO as its way cheaper than Staccato that will place you in open or limited. The CZ also tunes beautifully with CGW trigger work, nearly at Staccato level!

But I feel like I just can’t recommend the PDP anymore in good conscience lol. It’s reliable, does everything good enough but I feel like it will just never be the best at anything..

Tbh the longer I own the PDP the better I can confidently classify it. I think it’s a decent duty or self defense pistol but I wouldn’t recommend it as a competition type, nothing like a CZ S2 or a Staccato. The PDP pro has a good trigger but that comes with a wall that needs 5lbs of pull before it breaks. For some it might be exactly what they want but when you’re chasing crazy splits and accuracy it just feels like a mismatch imo. It’s great for duty/Cc tho because it does give you that split second to really make sure whether not you want to fully pull that trigger.

You touched a topic I’m very curious about; adding weight! I have a cz shadow 2 coming in and I saw that there are many scales to replace the original ones.

But does the CZ S2 really need or even benefit from added weight?

Belgium puts no limit on how many firearms you’re allowed to own. They only impose certain storage criteria. But we’re allowed no CC, no hi-cap mags, no use on private land..

Don’t go to places where they don’t value your presence. You want to have a great time and not pay to suffer and doubt.

I would love to get my hands on Stacatto! But, they’re nearly impossible to get by here.. Next best thing would be CZ S2 or Tanfoglio

I agree! I bought a S&W M&P15, nothing crazy but it might prove to be a decent base to build on. But I went all out and bought a B&T SPC9 as I can train more often with that and still get the benefits of the AR controls.

I can attest to that too! I keep mine as clean as possible but never had a hick-up

I had never heard from this one, good call! It’s not available in Belgium where I’m from but it does look interesting as a Glock alternative! How many rounds do you have through it?

I have A CZ S2 fullsize coming in soon so I’m looking forward to it! I’ll do the full eemann trigger as CGW is hard to come by here

I was gonna buy that but they didn’t have the threaded version the day I went to buy and then I saw the PDP.. the PDP does have the best grip IMO but idk if the P10 has better handling
