Choosing the right sight is important. The selection of sights should not be underestimated. By choosing the right sights, you can improve your shooting accuracy and the speed at which you aim. With sights that fit you well, you won’t miss your target.

There is a wide variety of sights for CZ Shadow 2 Compact models. Most of them focus on sport shooting, as competition shooters have really come to love the CZ Shadow 2 Compact. Thanks to this focus, the sights are fully adjustable in height and laterally, allowing them to adapt to a wide range of conditions and specific firearms.
Competition sights feature fiber optics that help you quickly aim at the target with great accuracy even in good lighting conditions.
What to clarify before choosing the right sight
When selecting sights, consider the following factors:
Replace the entire sight set or just the rear sight?
It depends on whether you are satisfied with the factory front sight. If you are, you can simply replace the rear sight. CZ Shadow 2 Compact models utilize the same height for factory front sights as aftermarket sights. This is a significant advantage of the CZ Shadow 2 Compact over many other CZ models.
If you are happy with the front sight, you only need to look for a rear sight and do not need to change the entire sight set.
What sights to choose?
If you are not looking for a specific type of sight, we recommend choosing full fiber optic sights – both in the rear and front sights.
From our experience and customer feedback, the color contrast between the fibers of the front sight and rear sight, as well as different fiber diameters, are highly appreciated. A combination of 1mm fiber in the rear sight, which is closer to your eye, and 1.5mm fiber in the front sight, which is further away, represents the ideal difference for comfortable aiming.
If you prefer the option with fiber optics only in the front sight, a fiber with a diameter of 1mm will suffice.
Everything depends on your personal preference and experience.
What about the front sight when I install a red dot plate?
The popularity of red dots among shooters is growing due to their convenience in aiming.
Once you install the red dot plate for the CZ Shadow 2 Compact, you can no longer use the rear sight for aiming.
But what about the front sight, which loses its function? A front sight filler elegantly replaces the unnecessary front sight.
