[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Yet another CZ thread! (Page 1 of 3)
Posted: 3/21/2015 1:37:42 PM EDT
Seems like we are doing these a lot lately so I had to have my own. My SP01 finally arrived along with a set of VZ grips. Here it is with its baby brother that I got for like 420.00 back in the day from Top Gun supply, man they were a bargain back then. Going to shoot it a bit and probably send it to CZ custom for trigger work/replacement as I did with the P01.

Great firearms. By CZ custom, do you mean the shop on Mesa, AZ? I have heard a lot of good things about Cajun Gun Works also. Take a look at Automatic Accuracy.net Great cz smith. Shoots for team CZ. Thank you. Will do. |

I have also heard good things about Cajun Gun Works, but having used CZ Custom in the past I will likely go with them again. |

If you need help finding which one, use the CZ forum in handguns, you won't find the only hurr durr answer is Glock douchebaggery GD antics in there like you would in the discussion area.. Quoted:

I need a CZ Funny you say that, since you can't help talking about Glocks. In the S&W forum: Quoted:
So easy to install even a Glock armorer can do it 
Or the HK forum... Quoted:
A major selling to whom?Already people have mentioned they do not mind, and already many Glock users made the switch. And lol, HK got it done by seeing a reliability issue and went with their engineering degrees versus the arf degree of chest thumping and mouth breathing. You get the idea. Let it go, man. Let it go.

Overpriced? I am confused. Are you asking if I think they are overpriced or are you stating that they are in your opinion? I paid 420 for my alloy P01 though admittedly that was 4 or 5 years ago and they have sadly gone up in price since then. I just paid 585 shipped for the SP01. That is 86.00 more (499.00) than I regularly see third gen glock 19s and 17s advertised for not including shipping. I am sure those can be found for a bit cheaper but in my opinion 85.00 more (including shipping) for an all steel 18rnd hand gun WITH night sights, (forgot about that) seems like a ok deal to me. |

Quoted:
I'd probably own one if I didn't have to grip the tiny slide serrations the same way I pick up a tooth pick. Due to the slide riding inside the lower frame instead of outside? Allows you to hold the gun high in your hands. Rack it once, then operate it from slide lock for the rest of its life. |

Yes that was a question. Looks like they go for about $650. Seems like a lot for a CZ |

I load and reload my semi-autos using what I call the overhand method seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVGQQhkjzec It's the same reason I like all of my guns to point naturally. No need to turn my wrist to align the sights or grab a slide differently just for one type of firearm when 99% of the rest out there are the same. |

Like I said before though for 85.00 more than a poly Glock WITH night sites and shipping it really wasn't terrible. |

I got my P09 this morning.
Love it so far, except when I went to change out the decocker for the safety... the safety lever is apparently missing the spring loaded detent... so it engages, but doesn't click into place. I verified what the part SHOULD be like, checked the box, the baggie the safety was in... that little bugger is GONE. Gotta get one from CZ soon. My impressions are that it is of course a big handgun. The slide is wider than I expected. I had hoped it would be slender like the 75b, but that doesn't matter much, I'm not going to try to conceal it! The grip is still very narrow feeling. The trigger is light in SA, but kinda mushy feeling, and the reset is a bit long.. but it's light! I'll likely look into some CGW parts to help resolve the simple issues there. |

I had a 75B I bought new in about 03 at an Academy in Round Rock TX... $385. They were underpriced then. Now they're priced more close to what they are worth. I do think that the $511 I paid (shipping included) for my suppressor ready P09 was a pretty good deal. I'll probably end up getting an SP01 someday as well... I think the SP01 is just a beautiful handgun. |

Took my die set and cleaned up the threads , I didn't send it back to CZ. On my barrel the thread peaks where a little tall. Plus side is the 09 is a great host for my Ti Rant 45 |

Ok. Talk to me about the P 07. That is a slick looking gun and reminds me of an HK. This is one of the first guns I've seen in a while that has caught my eye. And Go. Love it, carried in a crossbreed super tuck, it conceals remarkably well and shoot competitively with its bigger brother. I started with the P-07 and picked up the P-09 later, love them both. All my CZs shoot better than I can. |

I carry a P07 daily and I love it. . It shoots great! I would love to try the custom stuff from Cajun Gun Works but I don't want to change anything about the piston because I really like it as is. I may buy a second one to send off for customization.

I have a chance for one of the Australian limited edition guns. Msrp is like 1,200$ I can get it for 850$.
A big range toy and I would head over the CZ custom and add some stuff. But what do you guys think? I bet a decent machinist could put some threads on the end of that barrel.

I did the CGW SRT and spring kit and it made it shoot like a completely different handgun. Before that it was dead accurate, it would shoot a cloverleaf at 20 yards. Now I can still do that, but much faster. One thing I have to say is that I can't believe how easy it is to take apart. There is very little pounding and hammer necessary and the parts fit together with a lot of engagement. You can do the CGW parts with basically just punches. The hardest part is reinstalling the decocker. |

Anyone that doesn't run out and buy one of those P-07s for under $400 has brain damage. The smooth trigger on that thing gives me wood every time I pull it. Where can I find a P-07 at that price? |
