If you're a Hi Power and 1911 guy, keep an eye out for the CZ 75 SA. Extended beaver tail, extended ambi safeties, SAO trigger. They're nice stock, but you can put in a flat SAO trigger from CGW that makes an amazing shooter when combined with their hammer and springs. This is probably my favorite gun I've ever owned.

I'm very new to CZ, but we have two. My wife's is a P-01 and mine is a Compact PCR. Both have decockers and I much prefer a safety. That's probably because I've carried a 1911 cocked & locked for decades. I've considered getting an Omega, but I'm not sure they can compare with a CZ with all CajunGunWorks parts installed. CGW doesn't list much, if anything, for the Omega. It may be that the Omega can be polished and achieve the same results as a gun with CGW parts, but I'd be surprised. The CGW Pro Kit makes the CZ75 a different gun.

Re: CZ 75

I forgot about this thread. I bought a CZ75 P01 for my wife as her new EDC. Arthritis in her hands is making it unpleasant to shoot her Kimber Ultra Carry in 45 ACP. Thankfully, a diet change is making it much better, but the CZ is so much easier for her to shoot that she'll stick with it. It's only about 1/2" longer in the slide and about 2 ounces heavier than the Ultra Carry.

Re: CZ 75

Those are beautiful guns QB. Do the Trijicon rear sights require any milling of the slide?

Re: CZ 75

Since I have a CZ tutor, what's the story on the CZ 85? It looks much like the 75 in terms of size and weight. It looks like the differences are ambi safety and slide stop, a reversible mag release, and a firing pin block. Is that it? How are they viewed in the CZ community?

Re: CZ 75

Is the CZ P-01 still being manufactured and/or imported? I can't find any on Budsgunshop.com, unless I'm just missing them in the vast list of various models. There is an SP-01, but it's a full size gun with a rail. They have the CZ 75 Compact, but it's an all steel gun and I think the P-01 has an alloy frame.

Charles,

One thing I'd like to warn you about, despite the fact that I love my SA: Holster availability isn't as good for it as other CZs, IIRC because it uses the .40 cal slide profile instead of the 9mm profile so it won't fit into most traditional CZ 75 holsters.

There are plenty of kydex options for both concealed carry and shooting sports available for it, but leather and hybrid holsters might be harder to find. I don't know, all of mine for it are kydex and that works just fine for me.

You can always get a more traditional CZ and convert it to SAO, but I really like the SA because in addition to already being SAO, it has the extended beavertail and extended ambi safety that the traditional model lacks, and that was more important to me than holster availability.
Thanks for the heads-up. I may go with the B model then, but I too like the extended ambi safety. I plan to use it in competition and although I can make holsters, I'd prefer not to. It has the "drop free" magazine, but I'm not at all sure what that means. I would hope that the mags will drop from any CZ75, unlike the early days of Glocks.

I found this video impressive. He upgraded a 75 B trigger to get something pretty close to a 1911 trigger.
