CZ DUTY 4.0 F MS
About this product
One box with the frame, both rails, the jig, drill bits and end mill is how kits ship from this store. The CZ DUTY 4.0 is the other kind of one box: the pistol is finished when CZ closes the lid. It is a striker-fired 9x19mm with the serial number on an internal chassis, which makes the fiberglass-reinforced polymer grip frame modular. Expect a 4-inch non-threaded barrel, fixed sights and a slide ready for a direct-mounted red dot.
Choose the C compact for 15+1 rounds (17+1 with the extended base plate), 770 g and 135 mm in height, or the F full-size for 17+1 (19+1 extended), 780 g and 143 mm. Either way the pistol is 188 mm long and 33 mm wide. The refined SFDA trigger pulls about 5.6 lbs with a 4 mm reset. On MS models a manual thumb safety backs up the firing pin block, trigger safety and trigger bar safety. CZ's MSRP is $729 and the line is a new release.
Where the P-10 had a serial-numbered polymer frame, the DUTY 4.0 moves the serial number to an internal modular chassis. That is the headline. The rest follows the modern service-pistol formula done carefully: a striker SFDA trigger at 25 ± 4 N (5.6 ± 0.9 lbs) (0.16 in (4 mm) reset, 9 ± 1 mm (0.4 ± 0.04 in) travel), a 7.4 in (188 mm) long slide with direct-mount optics cuts, fixed sights and a four-inch barrel without a thread.
Capacity on the full-size is 17+1 standard and 19+1 with the longer base plate. Height 5.6 in (143 mm), empty weight 27.7 oz (780 g). It is the duty-belt, range and home-defense version of the line, and the one most owners find easiest to shoot well.
The MS model carries a frame-mounted manual safety on top of the firing pin block, trigger safety and drawbar safety. Everything else, chassis, trigger, slide and optics cut, is the same as the version without the lever.
Best fit: home defense, duty use, competition and long range sessions where the extra grip and two more rounds matter. Shooters coming from a CZ 75 will recognize the grip angle; owners coming from any other striker gun will notice the trigger first.
Kits ship to your door, but the DUTY 4.0 cannot, since it is a serialized complete pistol. Name the FFL dealer who should receive it when you check out, and the dealer takes care of the transfer paperwork and applies your state's rules at pickup. Check with the dealer before ordering so the package is expected.
