Guide to Cleaning the CZ P01
The CZ P01 is a popular compact handgun known for its reliability, accuracy, and ergonomic design. Proper cleaning and maintenance are essential to ensure that your CZ P01 operates smoothly and lasts for years. This guide provides step-by-step instructions on how to clean your CZ P01 effectively.
Materials Needed (links to gun cleaning supplies at: skullcrush.com)
Cleaning Kit: Includes a cleaning rod, brushes, patches, and a jag.
Gun Cleaning Solvent: For breaking down fouling and residue.
Gun Oil: For lubricating moving parts.
Rags or Paper Towels: For wiping surfaces.
Toothbrush or Cleaning Brush: For scrubbing.
Soft Cloth: For applying oil and polishing.
Safety Glasses: Recommended for eye protection.
Bore Snake (optional): For quick barrel cleaning.
Step-by-Step Cleaning Process
1. Ensure Safety
Check for Ammunition: Ensure the handgun is unloaded. Remove the magazine and visually inspect the chamber to confirm it is empty.
Engage the Safety: Engage the manual safety and keep the firearm pointed in a safe direction during the cleaning process.
2. Disassemble the Handgun
Remove the Magazine: Press the magazine release button and remove the magazine from the grip.
Check the Chamber: Again, verify that the chamber is empty.
Field Strip the P01:
Pull the slide back slightly and lock it in the open position using the slide stop lever.
Rotate the slide stop lever down and release the slide forward to remove it from the frame.
To remove the recoil spring and guide rod, simply pull it out from the slide.
Tilt the barrel upward to remove it from the slide.
3. Clean the Barrel
Use a Cleaning Rod: Attach a patch soaked in gun cleaning solvent to a cleaning jag and run it through the barrel from the chamber to the muzzle.
Scrub the Bore: Use a bronze or nylon brush on the cleaning rod to scrub the inside of the barrel, focusing on carbon buildup and residue.
Dry the Barrel: Run clean, dry patches through the barrel until they come out clean.
Oil the Bore: Apply a light coat of gun oil to a clean patch and run it through the barrel for protection against corrosion.
4. Clean the Slide and Frame
Use a Brush and Solvent: Dip a toothbrush or cleaning brush into gun cleaning solvent and scrub the inside of the slide and frame, focusing on areas where fouling accumulates.
Wipe Down Surfaces: Use rags or paper towels to wipe down the inside of the slide and frame, removing dirt and debris.
Clean the Firing Pin: Use a brush or patch soaked in solvent to clean around the firing pin, ensuring it is free of fouling.
5. Clean the Recoil Spring and Guide Rod
Wipe Down: Use a cloth or paper towel to clean the recoil spring and guide rod, removing any residue.
6. Clean the Exterior
Wipe Down the Grip and Frame: Use a cloth or paper towel dampened with solvent to wipe down the grip and frame of the handgun, removing fingerprints and dirt.
Inspect for Damage: Check for any signs of wear, cracks, or damage that may require attention.
7. Reassemble the Handgun
Insert the Barrel: Place the barrel back into the slide, tilting it slightly downward to secure it in place.
Reinsert the Recoil Spring and Guide Rod: Position the recoil spring and guide rod back into the slide.
Attach the Slide to the Frame: Align the slide with the frame and carefully slide it back into place until it locks securely.
8. Final Lubrication and Inspection
Apply Lubrication: Use a small amount of gun oil on a clean patch or cloth to lubricate the moving parts, such as the slide rails and locking lugs.
Wipe Down the Exterior: Use a soft cloth to wipe down the exterior surfaces of the handgun to remove any fingerprints or excess oil.
9. Store Properly
Final Inspection: Check to ensure everything is properly reassembled and functioning correctly.
Store in a Safe Place: Place the handgun in a secure and dry location, preferably in a gun safe, to protect it from damage.
Additional Tips
Frequency of Cleaning: Clean your CZ P01 after each use or at least every few months, depending on how often you shoot.
Avoid Over-lubrication: Excess oil can attract dirt and debris, so use it sparingly.
Use Quality Products: Invest in a good-quality cleaning kit and solvents for the best results.
By following these steps, you can keep your CZ P01 in excellent condition, ensuring it performs reliably when you need it most. Regular maintenance not only extends the life of your handgun but also enhances its accuracy and functionality.

This video is still useful 3 years later. Just picked mine up yesterday and put rounds through it today for the first time and I'm about to clean it! Thanks for the video!
You’re welcome!
Got my fist cz and this video helped a lot thank you
@@yemxgrunt7327 You’re welcome and thanks for watching.
Great video, Just want to mention to every one I have found that if you put the hammer in the half cocked position when the slid touches the hammer the take down notches a lined up.
Thank you so much for making this video. I found it helpful and informative without overwhelming me with information I did not need. I also like the low-key matter-of-fact style.
Great Vid , another great tip is old school WW2 cleaning tips. If it slides grease it, if it rotates oil it 👍
Awesome video, felt comfortable field stripping for the first time. Straightforward video.
Thank you!
very helpful as a new cz po1 owner
The voice helped me sleep. Great vocal
Excellent video, helpful, straightforward, well spoken and clear. Perfect!!
Thank for the help. I just picked up my CZ this morning. I love it
Congratulations!
Very simple and straightforward
Ty. A Cz is the first pistol I’ve owned and I had no idea how to care for it. Ty for your video appreciate it a lot
I just bought one of these bad boys yesterday. The factory doesn't seem to oil the slide, so it's a probably good idea to proactively lubricate key components before firing a round. Very impressed with the overall quality, and specifically the internal rail system on the slide. I wonder why more brands aren't using this type of construction; perhaps CZ has the patent? Anyway, thanks for the helpful video, @Skull Crush Inc. +1 Like
This is extremely similar to the Browning Hi-Power. I have a P01 Omega and love it.
Which website did you buy from?
Great video. I love my CZ 75 P-01!!
Very informative and easy to understand. Thanks, appreciate it!
Great cleaning instructions thanks
Thank you for the compliment sir.
Excellent video!! Very well done and informative. I learned better ways to clean my CZ and mistakes I had been making to it. Thanks very much!
Thanks for the help with my P-01!!!
Thanks so much. outstanding video
@@tdt5927 you’re welcome and thank you for watching!
Thanks that was a very Thorough cleaning job great video
Thank you so much for this video… this was just what I needed!!! Excellent instructions.
Great video buddy , you did good job. I love my czpo1
Thanks bro!
Thanks for the cleaning video
Great video. Concise and to the point. Thank you very much.
How often do you recommend cleaning the P-01? Also, would you recommend cleaning and lubricating before using for the first time? I just bought one recently and taking to the range next week, thx for the awesome detailed video 👍
Yes, clean when new to get the factory grease out of it. Clean after every use, regardless of round count. This will make sure it’s always 100% good to go at anytime.
SAMEEE
Thank you! Very clear!
Thank Man much appreciated
Very helpful thanks so much!
Great Video.Would you mind sharing where you purchased your Grips? Thk you.
First time gun owner here! I have Hoppe's bore cleaner and a bottle of Hoppe's lubricating oil. I do not have any CLP. I noticed you used the CLP to clean the inside of the barrel(bore). If I get some CLP, should I use it to clean the whole gun like you did and then use the bore cleaner for the bore? Silly question, I know. I appreciate it!
You can clean everything with CLP. Bore cleaner is for the bore. You can use bore cleaner if that’s what you have. Just use the lubricant to go back and lube the dry metal surfaces and friction areas. Just try to not leak any fluids into that hole on the breach face (where the firing pin comes out to strike the primer).
Okay gotcha. Thank you fo rthe information! I'm looking to get some CLP. I like how its a "combination". This video has helped me a ton! Thank you sir. @@SkullCrushInc
If you decock it and move the slide back till it touches the hammer, the two lines lignup perfectly.
Well done
Thank you!
Thanks for the posting,
How often should you clean? Some have told me after each use, others don't. Great video.
Clean after every use to keep it in perfect operating condition.
those are sone great grips, where did you get them? Thanks
The link is in the show notes.
Great video Thanks! What kind of magazine are you using? The stock ones are hella stiff and hard to load.
I use stock mags. If they’re hard to load, use a mag loader.
Great video! What grips are those?
Here’s the link to the grips Joshua: amzn.to/3bc6vL5
Great video...
Very nice looking grips, care to share where you picked them up ?
Yes, here’s the Amazon link: amzn.to/3FEHOrn
I have reman rounds that are failing to chamber.. the slide gets stuck and the road will not sit. I did a barrel check with the gun disassembled and rounds seem to be fine in length. Any ideas on what the issue is? Would cleaning resolve?
Try cleaning and use a different type of ammo. If it still has issues, sent it back to CZ. They’ll get it fixed.
We only need to wipe off clp with a cloth the parts exposed to the outside right? The rest should have a thin coat of clp for lube?
Yes.
Thank you for the video, is the recoil spring guide rod polymer?
The stock one is, you can also buy an all-metal one from CGW if thats an issue for you
Do you need to do this when you first get your gun?
I do, but it will be fine as long as you clean after every use.
Do you guys make holsters for the IWI Masada?
Not yet sir. Hopefully very soon. The IWI Masada is fantastic.
Nice gun
I hope you can give an opinion on this, or anyone else that can chime in. I bought a CZ75 Compact and a CZ75 P-01. Both are great guns. My issue is with the plastic guide rod. It seems to be cheapish. It is getting marred up with some deep scrapes and such. I have ordered two SS guide rods for these guns from NDZ. Was / is this a good move ???
I never had a problem with my plastic guide rod but there’s nothing wrong with upgrading to metal.
@@SkullCrushInc Thank you for your reply. My plastic guide rods are really getting buggered up. I will try the ss rods.
I got the pin out, but the slide is still catching and won't slide off the front. Is there a catch you're pressing with your thumb to get the slide off?
Thanks.
Make sure you pull the trigger to get the hammer forward first.
watching this video is similar to staring into the sun
My Slide Stop absolutely refuses to budge, it's just COMPLETELY stuck. It takes the force of my entire hand to drop the slide, is there something going on with my P01 Omega?
Hard to diagnose without seeing it. Probably need to take it by your local gun store and have them take a look.
My double action is smooth but my single action is gritty, any advice?
Clean all moving parts thoroughly and see how it goes. It shouldn’t be gritty.
@@SkullCrushInc thanks I'll give it a shot
I wish CZ would move the take down marks to the right side.
If you set the gun at half-cock, the slide automatically stops at the matching lines, slide removal position.
TY, Is that grip rubber? if so where did u get it?
It’s G10 grips. Here’s the link: amzn.to/3IxCrIN
🔥
What are the grips on your gun?
G10 grips: amzn.to/45BVvBI
👍👍👍
didn't he say the brush was a 357? Isn't this a 9mm?
.357, .380, 38, 9mm are same diameter.
Why is the frame inside all white mine is like that also
That’s just the way CZ does it. Not sure if there is a good reason for it or maybe they just wanted to save a little money on the finish. Either way, it’s still a very good pistol.
Which sights are those?
Standard stock sights.
@@SkullCrushInc Really? Every other P01 I've seen has more of a ramp shaped rear sight that extends all the way to the rear of the slide.
