How practical is condition 1 carry with this? Is the safety ergonomic enough for that?
I was thinking if trading my PPQ for something new, this looks like it would fit the bill.

The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. - Ayn Rand
I actually liked the older p series beaver tail but the newer one is more carry friendly. Anyway nice to cz to makes some ergonomic changes to the p07/09!
I shot it a bit this past weekend. Having practiced draws a lot at home during dry-fire practice I found I was able to draw and be on target very quickly, I didn't feel slower than with irons. As many here have discovered the CZs are very easy to control, and even when shooting quickly I never lost the dot during recoil. Of course accurate fire at longer distance was helped as well by the dot. I was plinking with some friends, so I didn't do a walkback drill or shoot at a whole bunch of different distances but both myself and a buddy were shooting 30-40% on a 1/4scale TacStrike target from 100 yards (standing, unsupported.) Much closer than that and I'm sure misses would get rarer and rarer.
One thing the dot really does lay bare is trigger control, and I found that when I was shooting with irons I was certain I wanted the small backstrap. Now, with the dot, I'm not so sure of that. While the grip feels good in my hand I noticed that the trigger reach is shorter than I'd prefer and it took more concentration than I expected to not move the dot as I curled my trigger finger ever further rearward to break the shot.
I use the large backstraps for that very reason.
The grip size itself is pretty good any way you slice the pie, whether it be small, medium or large but the CZ series of pistols tends to favor a single action break that has a relatively short reach overall.
I went to the large backstrap to stretch the trigger reach just a bit and it is much better. Not perfect, but much better. Ive somewhat resigned myself to the fact that a proper trigger reach will never be achieved for ME with the CZ platform of pistols.
You are a genuine toolbag if you have your EDC "loadout" in your signature line...
I've tried one, very nice pistol out of the box. I prefer P01/02 frame though
Why do you say that, splittime?
I've been very much eyeing the p07 as a replacement for my g19 because I love czs and my first love is a 75bd
That said I recently saw a pcr that called to me due to the same ergonomics and trigger....
I am conflicted, and would love to hear your opinion
