Design and Control

The IWI JERICHO ENHANCED MID-IZE retains the short recoil system derived from the CZ-75 family—a platform known for its durable lockup and consistent lock-breech timing. That heritage delivers predictable recoil impulse and solid accuracy for follow-up shots. The new tactical-style polymer frame reduces weight and improves corrosion resistance while offering an integral accessory rail for lights and laser aiming devices.

Ergonomics and controls

Ergonomic improvements include an updated trigger, hammer and safety profile informed by decades of real-world feedback. The extended grip on the Mid-Size model improves purchase and recoil management compared to compact alternatives, and the all-black finish keeps visual signature low for professional use.

Size, Caliber, and Capacity

The Mid-Size model sports a shorter barrel for easier concealment and maneuverability but retains the extended grip for improved control—an effective compromise for shooters who want concealability without sacrificing grip length. Chambered in 9mm Luger, the pistol benefits from readily available ammunition, manageable recoil, and effective terminal performance for defensive and duty applications. Two 16-round magazines are included, giving strong capacity out of the box for duty or range sessions. Price is $552.99, offering modern upgrades at a competitive price point.

Range Performance and Practical Use

On the range, the short recoil CZ-75-derived action and improved ergonomics translate to tight groups and fast, controlled follow-ups. The polymer frame lowers overall carry weight without sacrificing frame rigidity, and the accessory rail expands mission profiles from low-light home defense to duty configurations with weapon lights or lasers.

Who should consider it

Operators seeking a reliable mid-size 9mm with modern ergonomics, shooters who value extended grip control for competitive or defensive use, and anyone needing a cost-effective upgraded Jericho platform will find this model compelling.
