  • So you want to buy a CZ pistol but if you started doing some research you noticed that there are a million different models for this gun and their naming is also not super intuitive.
    ➡️ CZ pistols can be confusing, with variations between them and differences that aren’t always clear.
    In this video I’ll help you out with the common models, how they compare in handling, components, functionality, shape and more.
    🔹 CZ 75 BD POLICE
    🔹 SP01 Tactical
    🔹 SP01 Shadow
    🔹 CZ 75 D PCR
    Most importantly I’ll explain how the naming refers to the special features of each.

      PCR is a breeze to carry and very accurate. I've converted 1 or 2 Glock owners. I have had more than a few shooters at the range see target results and ask what I was shooting. Got some comments in classes I've taken about the PCR and all say the same, wow that is an accurate pistol. Have 2 full size 75B Omega pistols 1 swappable (home defense/ winter carry) and a standard pistol with a Kadet 22 conversion to teach with, love the platform without a doubt, second only to my Colt 1911 and TRP. CZ makes excellent pistols and rifles

    Greetings from Czech republic.
    Nice video. And some informations to history. CZ 75 BD Police was new police carry gun since 1992. Before 1989 police had CZ 50/70 in 7,65 mm Browning and CZ 82 in 9 mm Makarov. CZ 82 is same as CZ 83 (7,65 and 9 mm Browning). Now (since 2000 I think) is standard police carry gun CZ 75 Compact PCR - and you have 100% right - PCR means - Policie České republiky - Police of Czech republic.

      I love the PCR shoots great carries very well, have the upgraded Mec-Gar 15 rd mags. Personally I feel a better gun than the Glock 19, that being said the 19 gets the kudos for best carry pistol, but the PCR for more accurate and a safer option. Agreed a learning curve for DA/SA but once learned its no problem. Ever have a light primer strike or hard primer in a 19? Well no problem for the PCR, squeeze trigger again and bang it goes. Had that problem on the range at a class with supplied ammo, (Legend FMJ), some ranges you must use their ammo! But I had no problem. Kinda a plus for DA/SA guns. Outside of that class I've never seen that in other classes I've been too or have been an RSO at. My 2 cents YMMV.

    I gotta say, my first gun was a CZ 75 BD recommended to me by the clerk at a store in San Leandro, way back in the early 2k’s. I had asked for a Browning HP, but they had to order one, so, I order the Hi-Power and took home the CZ. Was not disappointed.

    My first CZ (or I should say CZs as I bought two at the same time) was a RAMI BD and a P01, and I love them both. The P01 I gave to CZ Custom for a trigger job and various other upgrades, and put on TFX Pro sights (a must have). It's now one of my favorite handguns.

I’ve been looking around for a P-01 decocker for a while and finally found one the other day and immediately ordered the CGW pro package for it. I cannot wait for the Cajun kit to arrive. A couple hours of TLC and I’ll have that P-01 singing.

I'm glad, you like product from country of my origin. Something what makes me to be proud of.

    I have the CZ 75 B full size & the original all steel CZ 75 B compact, which I carry a lot. One thing no one ever mentions about the B's with the safety, which only works in the cocked & locked position, which unlike my 1911's I don't like to carry the CZ that way. But what's never mentioned is that they are safe to carry in the 1/2 cocked position, which takes up a ton of the double single action weight off of the trigger. Plus what I like about carrying mine in 1/2 cock is there is a small amount of take up till you hit the wall, then a nice straight pull for a much crisper first shot, much easier to stage without actually pulling the trigger,..then the single action pull is wonderful after that. The curved trigger on the originals too are just way better felling than most triggers on say a Glock Block. Love my CZ'S, might be the best kept secret out there for folks that don't study or participate in shooting. CZ'S flat out rock, might have to get a third one after the Civil War is over. We win by the way.

    Nice review. I own 3 of the 4 pistols you reviewed and CZ produces great firearms, especially rifles. I added the TruGlo TFX Pro sights to all my CZ pistols and they are easy to install and provided the best of both worlds, for both the range and low light environments. Also consider Cajun Gun Works for trigger upgrades. My CZ 75 and PCR now feel like my Shadow target after the Pro Package. Not cheap, but well worth the price for the enhanced trigger. Once you own a CZ, I guarantee it won’t be your last.

    I got lucky, the day I looked for a PCR locally it was there, brand new. It is my edc and as he said the 75 series are tanks but like many designs there are stress points that one should be aware of when considering it for carry.
    1: If you have a model with a firing pin block, that pin (it's firing pin retaining pin) in the slide can eventually be damaged and even broken by dry fire, primarily due to the shape of the standard firing pin. There is a sharp edge on it where the two meet. However, the physical resistance of hitting an actual primer will absorb enough of the forward energy of the firing pin that live fire will cause negligible wear. Using snap caps (rotate and replace them eventually, the rubber/plastic in the fake primer will eventually no longer contact the firing pin, thus now doing nothing. Unless you got a fancy one with springs instead.) or placing a little rubber O-ring in front of the firing pin where the hammer meets (Don't forget to take it out when done!) when dry firing will prevent this. Cajun Gun Works makes a much stronger replacement pin that is like $5 and is easy to install, although I managed to break this one too after thousands and thousands of dry fires because I had not thought of the snap cap primers wearing down. Shooting is a continuous learning experience. Cajun Gun Works also makes an extended firing pin that isn't quite as sharp where it hits the retaining pin.
    2: The factory trigger return spring does not like dry fires in double action and can snap from doing this over and over and over a lot, like I do. Dry fire is important! Another (relatively) easy replacement with one that will stand up to this better. I know Cajun Gun Works makes a replacement and I believe CZ Custom does as well.
    3: The slide stop has a life of about 15,000-20,000 rounds on steel frame ones, I haven't heard of this breaking on alloy frames like the PCR (the alloy frames are a bit wider, thus the stop is as well)or P-01. Another easy replacement.

    The CZ 75 spawned one of the most incredible line of pistols _ever,_ I bought a P10F a couple years ago and loved it (still love it) so I took a chance and went for something more expensive from CZ, my guy at my favorite gunstore talked me into buying an SP-01 Competition, which is a hand-fit CZ Customs SP-01 manual safety with special attention to the trigger and springs. I loved it immediately, but then started looking at all the things people were doing to improve their SP-01's for competition, and eventually got pretty nit-picky lol. At this point, I've got close to $1500 worth of upgrades into it, it shoots as well as any Shadow 2, TSO, TS2, or any of the other higher end CZ Customs line, with a 1.8lb trigger which has only .050" thousandths of travel (.033" take-up to the wall, less than .002" creep, and .017" over-travel) making it a speed demon in the hands of even the most mediocre shooter like me😂. At first I converted it to SAO and replaced almost all the internals with CGW parts, then I got into the weeds and precision mirror polished _everything_ that moves (including all the CGW parts, along with a slight trim to the hammer hook height), I removed the firing pin block -because screw that huge reset- by cutting the leg off the lifter arm and removed the spring and plunger. Later I added a Shield RMS red dot on a dovetail mount, I replaced the barrel with a CGW fluted and threaded barrel with a TTS compensator on it, I installed a DPM Systems 3-stage recoil buffer mainspring with a CZ frame buffer pad, I replaced the grip with short grips to install a CZC flared magwell, and then finally installed a Cross Armory thumb rest/gas pedal with a nice big custom molded thumb rest (I had a tablesaw accident, it's the only way I can properly maintain grip😢). I suppose if I had actually known how much I would throw into this pistol I probably would have just saved some more and got a CZ Czechmate, but hindsight is 20/20 as they say. Either way I adore this pistol, it's my best shooter by leaps and bounds. CZ rocks!

    CZ's are just awesome. Get one if your a gun guy. If you don't like it you'll sell it no problem. Chances are you'll end up with a bunch more. They used to be an absolutely silly value. Nearly free for what you get. Still a great deal. For people new to shooting, you'll likely get introduced to all the plastic guns first. Not a bad thing, but you should experience a hammer fired gun made of metal with a nice trigger. A true pleasure and something you feel happy to own for a long time. Author here makes a great point. The gun store will likely give you a blank stare if you ask about a CZ. Find a shop that sells them or just mail to your FFL. 90% of the guys at the gun counter belong at the cellphone store.

    • @b0men

      +1. As far as 97 vs Shadow 2, I'd say it really depends on your goals, how much you shoot, and whether or not you reload. I shoot USPSA and Steel Challenge, so the Shadow 2 would be the obvious choice for me. Although I currently run a Shadow 1.

      Im still not sure if the Shadow frame differences are real. If you are Cajunizing a safety model CZ, I highly recommend doing it yourself. They are VERY easy to work on, compared to the decocker models. I am not mechanically inclined and I was able to do 3 of them using RUclips. Takes about 2 hours, if you don't hand-polish anything.

    I have the steel frame safety equipped SPO1. I did not like the DA trigger pull weight. Instead of paying the high cost for a Cajin or CZ Custom trigger I Bought for approx $30 the mcarbo 5 spring kit and installed them. Whala! Made a big difference in DA and also a noticeable difference in the SA pull weight. Probably 3.5 lbs in SA mode.
