CZ Shadow 2 Compact Review | Ported and Customized by United Firearms with Vytal Grips

My CZ Shadow 2 Compact has been fully customized by United Firearms with their famous In-Line Grenade Ports and a Custom Cerakote, topped off with some of the amazing Solid Copper Kraken Palm Swell Grips in the gorgeous Antique patina from Vytal Manufacturing. In this video I review the CZ Shadow 2 Compact, the quality and performance of the barrel porting and cerakote by United Firearms, and the Copper Kraken Vytal Grips.

My original CZ Shadow 2 is one of my favorite guns of all time, so naturally I was excited when the Shadow 2 Compact (S2C) was announced. However, I was really hoping for a steel frame, because I love how well my heavy steel framed CZs shoot. Regardless I decided to give it a shot, and boy am I glad I did. Customizing my Shadow 2 Compact with the amazing work from United Firearms in addition to the Vytal Grips, Trijicon RMR, Impact Machine plate, Dawson Precision front sight, Cajun Gun Works parts and LOK Grips magazine release really made this gun a truly special piece in my collection.

I have a TON of handgun reviews on the way, including more custom work from United Firearms, as well as more PCCs, ARs, AKs and Shotguns - so make sure to like and subscribe so you don't miss any upcoming videos!
