I don't know yet; I'm picking up my first CZ (an SP01) in about a week. Already ordered a flat trigger to convert it to SA only, and a larger safety lever on the right (I'm a lefty). I shot my friend's before deciding to pick one up myself and those were the two items I wanted to change.

I JUST picked that SA up at Budsgunshop through price match feature. $493! I wanted the beefier slide, beavertail and the option to change to DA/SA if I like. No use for the rail, I have that on my compact where I may actually use it.

FUNNY YOU SHOULD ASK! I have been jonesing for a DA/SA to compliment my beloved but bloated Beretta 92G-SD. I considered getting a P07 but I know in my heart I don't like plastic guns. So I picked up this baby today...reports to follow...

Good choice. I have had two p-07s and i've liked neither one really.

My CZ75 BD Police however is excellent.

I'm a Glock guy but decided to get the CZ SP-01 to see what the fuss is about. This past Sunday, I shot it for the first time on a firearms training course, and I am in love with it. My SP-01 is stock except for the thin LOK Bogie grips, but I felt like I was more accurate with the CZ than my Glock 17. The only thing I don't like is that my short thumb sometimes has a hard time getting to the safety so I plan on getting an extended safety. I'm probably going to shoot 500 or 1,000 more rounds though it then get a CGW Pro-Package installed.

I have a bad case of P07/9, love. My business partner, who still works in a certain place in Israel also has CZ love. Due to small gun market in Israel the P07/09 is just starting to get into the market place, so he hasn't shot them yet. He was just in the USA with me for a business trip, but due to wearing a suit the whole time I took my P7.

Next trip I will bring my CGW P07, and watch him become a P07/09 fan.

If you have the cash it pays off in a quality trigger if you go ahead and replace the sear and hammer with something like a Cajun Gunworks adjustable sear and race hammer combo ($125). With the stock sear and hammer the trigger pull actually cams the hammer back a bit...the whole thing feels like a huge creep. If you have it apart to SA it and c/o the safety lever, it saves time. I did it to mine and it made a big difference in trigger pull and quality. I'm also waiting for a 15 lb. hammer and 12 lb. recoil spring.

Thanks for the tip. I was considering that exact hammer/sear, but decided to replace parts in steps, lol. I'm sure I'll probably end up going that route, knowing me...

Of course.

I have an SP01 with threaded barrel and a near marching P01 also with threaded barrel.

I would also have a very hot looking SS P01, model number 91197, or at least a non stainless steel framed PO1 with non thread barrel,
But nobody has them.

Ive said in the past that I thought people that bought CZ's couldn't afford a top tier gun. I had no idea how much love there is out their until recently, but I do believe they have upped their game in recent years. And they have had a following long before I knew. The pistol competition I shoot are filled with CZ fodder. I love my Legion DA/SA and my Berretta as well, so CZ may well get in my pocket someday.

Lots of love. Converted a glock lover in to buying a shadow 2 after shooting my sp01 phantom at a match. I have p07 .40, p07 9mm, p09 9mm with RMR and phantom 9mm. Love me some cz. All fully cajunized and polished internals by myself. After trigger jobing his shadow 2, I now have an itch for an all steel safetied cz. They do offer a really nice LEO/MIL discount on lots of their firearms and parts.

I would have a lot more CZ love, if all 9mm mags were interchangeable.

I would own probably 4 steel framed CZ's to go with my 4 P0/09.

joedirt199
01-31-19, 20:38
Looks like they are using a universal mag body for the polymer p-series guns with the new p10s coming out. The new 07/09 guns will come with mags that have about 10 extra slots and holes to fit all the different mag catch locations of the p10/07/09 grips. Sucks they can't just stick with one mag body through most of their product line. Atleast the newer p-series mag prices are coming down from their previous $40+ price tag.

My P07.

I’ve been carrying the P07 all weekend, and I’ve come to a conclusion. This thing’s too big compared to my 19. Shrug.

And that P7 is too damned heavy, and, frankly, too valuable to beat up. But a really great pistol.
In these times, magazines are a pain. Hate to change platforms, because then there is the need to stock up with proprietary mags, fearing some future ban.
Gotta love the Gummint.

And that`s why I went with the P01 .... weight and size. Also , fit me better and was more concealable . Put 500 rounds through it and then sent it off to CGW for their workover . Now have a little over 800 rounds downrange and am really liking this gun . I`ve carried/shot my PPQ`s for over 3 years and have literally thousands of rounds through each and about the same in dry fire ..... the P01 is now my EDC . I don`t dislike the PPQ`s , just liking the P01 more .
Two things I really miss though are the paddle mag releases and the slide drop lever of the PPQ . I never had to change grip to drop a mag or slide with the PPQ , but have to shift grip slightly to drop the slide and the mag now ..... maybe just more practice is needed.
As mentioned , mags are a problem , but found some reasonably priced ones through Greg Cotes .

I don't know yet; I'm picking up my first CZ (an SP01) in about a week. Already ordered a flat trigger to convert it to SA only, and a larger safety lever on the right (I'm a lefty). I shot my friend's before deciding to pick one up myself and those were the two items I wanted to change.

Following up on my previous post (above), I finally got my first CZ; an SP01. I had shot friend's CZ75's before a long time ago (like, more than 20 years), and while I really liked the classic design and feel (it reminded me of a BHP); I just didn't get around to buying one. I had also shot another buddy's CZ Shadow 2 a year ago, and while it was nice, it wasn't cheap (and I am), so I didn't get around to buying one either.

I've been shooting my 1911's lately in .45, and my compensated G19, so it got me thinking about getting a 1911 in 9mm. However, I felt the urge to get something I didn't already have, and narrowed it down to the CZ SP01, which was a heavy steel pistol in 9mm. It was a lot cheaper than a Shadow 2, and with a few aftermarket parts, I could probably make it my 'cheap man's Shadow 2'.

Here's my SP01 bone stock, after I picked it up. I took it to the range as I was waiting on parts, shot it, and confirmed that I was on the right track as far as the parts I had ordered. This was to be a range-only fun gun. After hearing mixed reviews on the SP01 DA/SA trigger pull, I was actually surprised at how smooth the DA pull was, and how good the stock SA trigger pull was (I measured it at around 5-6 lbs). But, I still wanted to convert it to SAO. It was very pleasant to shoot, as I had expected, due to its weight and a nice change from the snappier Glocks. It certainly did feel similar to a 1911 in 9mm, which was what I was looking for.

https://i.imgur.com/s8YRbWk.jpg

Here's the list of parts I purchased - all were from Cajun Gun Works except the grips:


Lok Grips Thin Bogies in black G10
Hammer spring plug without the lanyard loop. Not a fan of lanyard loops that stick down past the mag well, especially when used with thin base plates.
Extended RH safety lever. I'm a lefty and I have small hands so the stock SP01 safety didn't give me much purchase.
Floating trigger pin (easier to remove and replace than the OEM pin if you work on your gun a lot)
11# recoil spring
Single Action flat aluminum trigger with pre/overtravel screws
OEM hammer strut (I didn't want to bother transferring it from the old hammer), and new strut hammer pin (no need to stake)
Manual safety hammer kit - race hammer and adjustable sear. I wanted the more angular profile for an SA pistol as I like the look and it gives me better thumb purchase when lowering the hammer than the ring style. I went ahead and ordered it after TomMcC's recommendation.
Sear spacer (fills up the space in the sear cage when I removed the firing pin block lifter arm)



I had watched a lot of videos on CZ disassembly etc, and was prepared to do a lot of clean up of machining marks etc, but was again pleasantly surprised to see very little need for it. The trigger bar was nice and smooth; not what I had expected from the videos and photos on the net. I did study all the parts and how they worked with each other and did some minor stoning and polishing of engagement surfaces. Probably more important when wanting to produce a very smooth double-action pull; probably less so when converting to single-action only.

Overall, the quality of the pistol (inside) was better than I had expected. I had never worked on a CZ before, but have worked on everything else that I've owned for the past 30 years, but was a bit intimidated by some of the issues that others have run into with assembly/disassembly. It actually wasn't that bad; and I was able to take it apart completely and reassemble it without issues, thanks to the plethora of great instructional videos and material online. Didn't lose any springs or small parts, scratch the gun or draw blood - always a good thing. I also removed the firing pin block in the slide and associated parts in the sear cage.

I haven't shot it with the modifications yet since I just did them today, but I'm very pleased with how it turned out. The Lok grips are thinner than the OEM rubber ones, and feel really good. Both the hammer and safety feel just like I wanted them to; the extended RH lever make it easier for me to sweep it up or down with my stubby thumb. I'm also happy with the conversion to SAO. I'm measuring a trigger pull weight of around 3lbs 2 oz to 3lbs 5 oz depending on where the electronic trigger pull gauge is placed. With the pre and overtravel screws adjusted, the trigger doesn't move much. The break is nice and crisp - I didn't do any mods to the CGW race hammer or adjustable sear. The adjustment on the sear is a set screw for safety engagement. I'm very pleased with the quality of the CGW parts and how quickly they were shipped out. Here's a pic of the pistol with mods:

https://i.imgur.com/nEeq8cy.jpg

Thanks again for the advice/recommendations I received here!

Edited to add: I installed a set of Dawson sights a couple of days ago with the fiber optic front and took it to the range yesterday and shot it for the first time with all the mods. It's a really nice shooter and I'm happy with it. Put about 450 rounds through it total so far and not a single issue. The flat SAO trigger is 1911-like. I much prefer the sight picture (and aesthetics) of the Dawson sights to the ones that came in it. That's it for the mods (I hope) - here's a couple of final pics. This pistol is really growing on me.

Nice going. I didn't remove the firing pin block...still thinking that over. Your take up and reset should be better than mine . Last Saturday I replaced the hammer spring with a 15 lb. number. It dropped the pull a quarter oz to about 2.75 lbs. I'll get back to you after reliability testing.

Oh, yea BIG CZ guy now. I always wanted an 07 and held one several years ago and the finally bought one maybe 4+ years ago,, great gun great size and feel is right up there with some of the best! Any CZ I have ever shot has always been some of the most accurate handguns I have ever shot for "factory" guns,,just very good if I do my part. I don't carry everyday but when I do I carry my 07,fits me great,I am a big guy so it blends very nicely with my Crossbreed IWB holster. I have bought a few CZs now though the years and I am very happy with them.Just because I plan on getting a G19x or a G45 in the Spring because I have tons of Glock mags,parts,holsters etc but its just hard to beat the feel and accuracy of a CZ. Here are a few of my toys. I have a all Steel P-01 that I bought last year through CGW and that think is a tank and a real gem,,just awesome. I'll get some pics of that up also when I can !

Still regardless of how he got shot it is called Karma ;) !! He got what he had coming ! Yea I hear ya, my SP-01 is a dam fine pistol and now even better after I sent it along with my 07 out to CGW last year & now they are really bad-ass, LOL! I love that darn thing (SP-01) but it just seems I shoot my 07 the most because it is the one I carry ! I'll use the SP-01 for matches and messing around mostly. I will say my all steel P0-1 is pretty awesome in its own right with complete CGW kit. My last one is the Shadow-Line Compact,,bone stock & I think I will keep it that way,it does rezide on my nightstand @ night, its a dam fine pistol also. Ah,,so many guns,,so little $$$ !

Since we're on the topic of CZ's: Have any of you ever put a round in the chamber by hand and dropped the slide?

I've done this on dozens and dozens of other pistols (Rounds off the ground that fall and my friends don't bother to pick up). Apparently if you do this on a CZ you can break the extractor quite easily. Have you guys heard of that before?

Never heard of that, but I've never tried it either, I know Glocks for example will not chamber a round dropped in by hand, about the only 9mm that I've tried this with sucessfully, is a Beretta 92, in fact that was used as a selling point when they were ptiching it to the military. The idea being if you lost the mag for whatever reason, you could still use it by dropping rounds in the chamber, I've actually done this with my M92, and it works..I'd venture to guess that there may be some pistols you can do this with, and I'd also guess that you're risking chipping, or otherwise damaging the extractor of you do it alot, exception here being the Beretta 92, as it was designed for it.

Dang, that's a real beauty! I have an S2 also but she is bone stock and traditional color from the factory but yours has me intrigued for sure! My trouble is I have too many CZs (Hmmm,is that really a problem) and it is always a tough choice to decide which one I should take to the range! Ya can't go wrong with the 07, I love mine,also considering its almost the least expensive CZ for me it just feels the best in my hand,its a great gun !

That you! Honestly i did it on a whim. I am good friends with the owner and he doesn't mind me using his Cerakote booth when he isn't so I just decided to do it one day since I hate that light grey that CZ uses.

And let me tell you. That original finish is hard. I wasn't able to get all the way through it with the Sand Blaster so I settled for roughing it up. But the end result turned out really well.

Went to the indoor range with my modified SP-01. Ran it with a 12 lb recoil and 15 lb hammer spring. Worked like a champ. Used Winchester primers, not a hint of light strikes. The 12 lb recoil spring made a substantial difference in the recoil impulse. The gun actually felt softer and flatter in the hand and slightly less harsh in operation.

That's right - you did mention that in a previous post. I'm getting old and forgetful, lol.

Ordered and received one of these today - a CZ SP-01 Kadet .22 LR kit. It's different from the earlier Kadet kits as it doesn't taper in front, and the whole back part of the slide behind the front sight reciprocates; not just a 'cutout' portion. Comes with two 10-round polymer magazines, and seems to be a good quality accessory. I'll be taking my kid to the range to try it out this weekend.

2/24 - Took the Kadet kit to the range for the first time with CCI Mini-mags and Federal American Eagle. Had a couple of failures to feed of Federal after inserting a full mag and dropping the slide using the slide stop. Slingshotting the slide instead of using the slide stop worked. The Federal had a slightly flatter bullet profile (38gr HP). No issues at all with CCI Mini-mags using the slide stop to drop the slide as they have a sharper nose. Other than that, no failures to fire, feed or eject. Fired 200 rounds of CCI and 160 rounds of Federal. No adjustment needed on the sights, they were dead on for me. Accuracy was very good - on par with my Browning Buck Mark (which is more accurate than my Walther P22 and Advantage Arms Glock .22 LR conversion). The Kadet on my SP01 is now officially my new favourite .22 LR pistol to shoot.

I just jumped in to the steel framed cz's by getting an sp01 shadow cz custom duo-tone on gunbroker thanks to the government holding on to my money for last year then giving me the extra back. Pretty excited after doing a trigger job on my buddy's shadow 2 and how easy it was compared to my decocker phantom. Will be my 5th cz in probably 4 years. They are growing and taking over my safe. Excellent competiton guns and just added a trijicon rmr to my p09 and shooting some of the smallest groups while testing powders and bullets. My dan wesson 1911 can shoot tighter but my cz's are not far behind.

The p07 prices have been coming down well under $400 if you hunt around. Depending on your budget and hunting abilities, you may be able to get both. Watch czfirearms.us and brian enos classifieds for used cz's.
