I found one with a rail for 1913. Picking her up in 9 days. Backstory : I wanted a 45 full size for home protection. My first firearm was a Glock 17 3rd gen but I really wanted a 45, so I went to a little town and shopped around and found the famous CZ 97b 😍😍. All steel , breaks like glass and shoots accurate and soft. I love it. It seemed natural to get a P01 for CCW. I opted for the decocker

I've carried this pistol for 7 years, just a tip for reloads. If you slam the mag home the slide auto closes and racks the round in. Highly recommend looking into Cajun Gun Works. Takes about an hour or 2 to install their pro defensive kit. They also have great after market sight options.

I never thought anything of the CZ either. went with some friends to a range and buddy brought a CZ P01 with an upgraded trigger kit. Agreed to buy it from him that night. Literal tack driver for me. I have lots of other handguns and was super fond of my ported Springfield 45 but this little guy is hands down the best shooting and consistently working weapon I own.

Your friend didn’t “upgrade” from his PCR to P-01, it’s really just a slightly different feature set. My PCR, is my ideal EDC. I don’t carry with a light, too bulky for my taste. So the slimmed down frame is a plus in my opinion. Snag-less sights, another plus for the PCR. Add the round in chamber indicator, which I use as a tactile “press check”. Both have the forged aluminum frame and the same trigger group. My home defense is a full size P-09 Duty, that has tritiums and a light mounted.

Thanks for the thorough review. As a guy with small hands, pistol ergonomics are among the most important considerations. The CZs I've tried have just sort of locked into my hands. I've been eyeing up the P01 for a while, and you might have pushed me over the edge.

I am glad you came over to the hipster side. 😎

The P-01 and the PCR rubberized grips are by far the greatest right out of the box. I have to agree that this weapon feels the best that I have personally felt. Workhorse of a weapon. Great video.

The CZ 75B has been my EDC for the last year or so, before that I had a S&W 9. The CZ is heavier- a LOT heavier- but my God what a pleasure it is to shoot! And accuracy is far better too, it makes me feel like my shooting ability has dramatically increased; but it's just the gun, it goes right where I point it. So yeah, I'm a CZ fanboy! Now I've got the P01 on layby, pick it up in a week, and I'm sure looking forward to trying it out. If all goes as planned, it'll become my EDC and I'll use its bigger brother as my range gun. It feels so good in my hand! Thanks for an excellent video, I just subscribed!

I’ve had this gun, with NATO numbers and De-cocker, for many years and I absolutely love it! I own several others handguns, and carry them all throughout the year, but this my “go to gun” and my number 1 gun if I could only have one. I’ve lost the round count to date, but I’ve never had one issue! If you have a chance to get one, do it! The only change I have made to it is replaced the factory sights with TruGlo.

Awesome pistol, agree with you, I have a cz PCR, as I didn’t need a rail, and I liked the lighter weight of no rail and the aluminum frame. I have had excellent luck with the Czech guns!

Outside of something bad happening(loss or breakage of the gun) this is my last pistol to buy. I've carried four different varieties: Beretta Px4 Storm, some Turkish junk(I know they have good stuff, this one wasn't one of them), S&W M&P Shield, and finally the CZ 75 P01. It's what I've wanted for years, and it is what I carry everyday. Love this pistol.

Great job. Subscribed. I am saving my pennies for a Cajun Gun Works P-01. Right now the only CZ I have is a 97B .45 and both my son and grandson are IN LOVE with it. My son, having never fired it before, put 20 rounds through a 2" hole at 10 yards... first 2 mags with it. There's just something about a CZ... and this is from a 1911 guy.

I got a cz p01 (upgraded with Mcarbo trigger kid) . Love it 😍. The feeling I get holding the cz after shooting 100 rounds on a glock is like enjoying an oasis in a desert

i recently got back into da sa guns. all of the striker fired polymer pistols i have, have just got boring to me. i bought a cz p07 & sp01 tactical. i put the mcarbo spring kit in my p07. it reduced the da sa trigger pulls by 40 %. i sent the slide for my p07 off to have milled for a holosun 507 k. once i get it back & get the 507k mounted, i think it will be the perfect gun for me. something about the cz ergos, i can just shoot them more accurately than any of my other pistols. thanks for the awesome review. i would love to find a green p01.

@@okboomer1340 LOL, yes indeed he would. That's why he's Meathead. :)

There is a detail about CZs that I noticed on my 97bd that might have something to do with how smooth they shoot. It also explains why the rear sight is so much higher than the front: When the barrel is locked (ready to fire), it isn’t parallel to the slide. It is actually pointing slightly down. When the shot goes off, the slide begins to travel rearward, and when the barrel unlocks - it drops down to parallel. In a typical Browning action, the locked barrel sits parallel to the slide, and as the slide moves rearward it tips the barrel upward as it travels. This contributes to muzzle flip. The CZ design is amazing.

Looking forward to getting my P-01 back. Did the CGW protection package, stainless guide rod with new spring, Tru glo pro sights, LOK grips and forest green cerakote. It was shooting great before so I imagine when I get it back it will be a real dream. Great video.

I also switched from g19 to P01. I went with the omega though. I am aware of the slightly better trigger on the non omega versions but needing no tools to fully break it down is worth the trade off for me. If it were a target pistol then it would be different.

I carried a Glock 19 for 22 yrs and absolutely loved it, still do’ it’s a fine pistol and 100% reliable’ when a CZ-75 full size model came into the shop and I handled it…….it never even made into the case, bought it right then and there and immediately called and ordered a P-01 for concealed carry’ the grips on these are one of if not the best feeling grips on a stock firearm I have handled’ the accuracy is unreal as well’ if your already a good shooter you will be an even better shooter with this’ it is well refined and thought out’ look at the NATO tests on it! If that doesn’t convert you then you are a lost cause.

Great review here, as I just purchased a used P 01 I've been learning about it what I like an dislike. I like it ! I found this pistol in a LPS and after some days of consideration I adopted my new pet , it needed a home. Now I own a SIG P210 which uses the same slide design which is a iconic feature for solid accuracy and lockup, just eats up ammo like a pig. I just couldn't pass up this pistol and like you it took a while to warm up to CZ , this is my first CZ and I'm glad I took it home, I had an itch to scratch. To explain this pistol it's a solid shooter, a classic that's going to make some history, this is a tough as hell gun that's going to take a beating. The slide takes some training but overall chambering a round is not constant nor will you experience a need to clear jams enough for this to be a problem. The grips on mine are rubber and are good but not pretty so there are options Lok grips can enhance it's somewhat boring suit. The sights were the least impressive part so that will be a definite swap for something much more visible, then there's the trigger it's DA so if you can live with it fine or you can upgrade with a Cajon Gun Works trigger kit , I understand it's a nice upgrade. The decocker is a welcome feature I like as on my P220 SIG. And last I find nothing bad about o light it's a fine light and maybe the brightest on the current market. Enjoyed your review 💪🇺🇸

Was never a fan of CZ, until I held one and shot it. Now I’m a huge fan! But I like the CZ 75 B and BD models the best and carried on my hip, or on the nightstand. The P-01 while a fine gun, is just too heavy to EDC for me in AIWB carry. I even dread my Glock 19 carried there, so I can’t imagine anything heavier than that. The P-01 is a whopping 5 ounces heavier than the G19. I carried a Beretta 92FS for years AIWB and was glad to give it up due to its length and weight. The Glock 19 felt better. Going to the P-01 or PCR alloy version is still too heavy for me in my older age. These days, I want comfort. G43X, G48 or G27 plus two spare magazines is how I usually roll with ANY gun that I carry.

When you say its "a lot" heavier than a glock 19, I just looked up the numbers. glock 19 is 23.9 ounces. The cz p01 is 28.1. With both of them being only .1 away from an even number, I think its fair to call the glock 19 at 24 ounces, and the p01 at 28 ounces. Only a 4 ounce difference. I've never carried a glock, but I couldn't see 4 ounces feeling that noticeably different when carrying in a holster on your belt. If we are talking about a pocket sized subcompact gun, then yes, 4 ounces is a pretty big difference imo. But that's not so not much difference for iwb carry.

There is a huge difference, even between a g17. My edc for years was the original CZ75 Compact, which is about 10 oz more. Now I’m sporting the new 75 compact that no longer comes with 15 round mags and has a polymer lower..

I love my P01 and feel it’s one of my smoothest shooting handguns. Compared to most others it feels like the slide is on ball bearings and gives a pleasant recoil impulse. With that said I went back to carrying striker fired guns, particularly the Walther pdp compact 5” with holosun 507c. I feel 5” compact handguns that are optics ready are cream of the crop and offer more than regular compact handguns. Add the sweet trigger that walthers are known for and it’s a no brainer. My P01 isn’t going anywhere but it’s probably already seen it’s carry glory days.

Your p01 would be far superior to that pdp if you sent it to Cajun Gun Works or did the job yourself. Pro defensive carry package. Trigger will be better and far safer, especially for appendix carry. You can also get it cut for the holosun or whatever optic you want for like 250 bucks. I also recommend the 15 round pro mags with cz custom 10 spring follower kit. 16 +1 in a flush mag the size of a glock 19. It's about the same weight, 1 Oz more, slimmer, slightly shorter in height and length, more streamlined, faster on the draw, and I think the ergos are better. While I love the PDP I think the cz p01/ d compact pcr are the best do everything pistol ever made with just a little work.

I only wish they weren't a Chinese company, but it is what it is. As for my P01, well... we're in the middle of an ammo crisis that rivals the southern border crisis. So I can't say I've put many rounds through it. I concur with your experience with it's accuracy, my first box of ammo through it at 10 yards I put a racketball sized hole in the center of the target. I changed out the grips to lokgrips frag pattern as I hated the feel of the rubber grips. But I have to admit, when my hands were sweating, the frag pattern wasn't offering as much grip. They do look amazing though. I guess I'll be buying another set of their more aggressive textured grips.

Great pistols, however every single hammer fired CZ I've owned as well as my P10C has broken it's trigger return spring within the first couple months. I do ALOT of dry fire and IMO the oem TRS isn't durable enough for that kind of routine. After installing a Cajun Gun Works spring that issue is resolved and is the first upgrade I make. I've had in order, SP01 Tactical, P07, P09 SR, P10C SR and currently have a P10F SR. Out of all of them only the P10C had a breakage that stopped it..broken firing pin. CZ was absolutely fantastic to deal with and had the FP to me in two business days. I look back and have some regrets about selling the SP01, but I could've replaced it if I'd really wanted too and I haven't. Next on the CZ list is a Shadow 2.

Need another that I shoot & practice with. I was on the fence, you just made my day. ❤

I bought my first CZ because I loved my warmed over DA/SA Sig P226 RX Legion so much. I found a new CZ RAMI BD that I sent off to Cajun Gun Works and had a trigger job & Romeo X installed (Pierce mag plate allows full grip on short mags). It is a great Sub-compact. Now for the compact, I am torn between the P-01 that I will certainly modify or the Shadow 2 Compact that comes optics ready (once the price settles down)?

CZ's make some of the finest guns!

I think the reason for recessing the rail has less to do with reducing the reciprocating mass and more to do with lowering the bore axis. By bringing the axis of the slide path in recoil closer to the shooters's hands, you should reduce the torque and therefore felt recoil.

@Subtlenimbus

Жыл бұрын

CZs don’t really have a lower bore axis than most semi autos. It only seems that way because of the way they do the rails. The slide is shorter, and the frame is taller, but the barrel just sits in the middle at about the same place as other guns.

If you have ever got a case of hard primers in range ammo especially reman the double action is essential and makes it possible to actually use that ammo.

I got a used P01 late last year and really liked it...but heard about Cajun Gun works so I wanted to give them a try because the DA/SA stock trigger seemed a little heavy...got it back from Cajun last week and shot it to day for the first time. WOW!!!! Add the Pro Package trigger kit, a metal guide rod and barrel bushing......I don't think I have any desire to get a Shadow 2 Compact now. My Shadow 2 will also being to Cajun at some point. NO question.

CZ used to have aluminum or G10 grips, both of which were much thinner than factory rubber. I have medium hands and love the aluminum. On my 75B, I have G10 plastic and love those much better than original rubber. Rubber makes the grip thicker and I don't need that.

I carry apendex as well. Good choice deciding to stay center massed.

Love my p-01!!! They use the photo luminescent because they are not allowed to have the “nuclear” tritium sites in Europe I believe! What holsters have you had experience with?

CZ is top notch for the price point!

Nice review. I was looking for this gun at my LGS, and they did not have it. However, they had the fraternal twin -PCR. Like you, I ignored CZs for years.

Great/detailed review! I've heard some say on YT this tool was snappy.

Even saw another YT reviewer compare his upgraded PO1 to an WBC EDX 9..hmm, 'it seemed' to compare fairly against WCB "IF" internals are upgraded. If so, maybe I found that cheat code item...? Is it really a soft shooter?

Lol... Bro I KNOW EXACTLY what your meant when you said CZs kinda just flew in one ear and out the other... But I kept hearing "clone of the CZ 75..." over and over and over... Simple reasoning and logic required me to ask myself, "how could I view a firearm and it's maker on straight prejudice? Especially when it's being cloned so much, they must be doing something right." I joke but I always say "after I shot a CZ, i damn near proposed at the range" because the nuances were noticeable for someone who knows jack about firearms (myself)... Now my EDC is my Rami and it's difficult to own other firearms lol

The great design before 1975 ,,, unbelievable ,,,it is my amazing gun CZ P01

Olight is great! Lithium batteries catch fire. It's just part of using them. In flash lights or Tesla's. Not the light at all...

Love my P-01, I did do a number of upgrades. The Cajun GW "old style" trigger by itself made the trigger pull feel lighter and completely relieved the trigger bite I personally was dealing with. As my EDC I also replaced the sites with TruGlo night sights just wanting to be able to pick up that front sight as quickly as possible in need. MCarbo spring kit, very nice, replaced the cheap plastic guide rod with steel, and the cheap factory roll pin because it is a noted issue. LOK grips. With all that, what holster are you running?

Drew Evans i noticed in your reply to this video you mentioned using Mcarbo springs and Cajun parts together. I have also looked at that combo. Have you been pleased with that set up?

​Yes, very, but I did all of the work myself. If you go that route, be sure to watch videos from multiple sources on KZread. The spring kit company is not important, the videos are. The MCARBO videos were not enough for the PO1 specifically. The firing pin block spring process does not match the video and they refer to the dome side of the decocker pin which they get wrong from my perspective. To me the domed end is the round end. What they are referring to is a chamfered end. This is a potentially critical misnomer as you may punch the pin through the aluminum frame trying to set the tine washer. I had to combine research videos on the spring kit upgrade using both MCARBO and I think Apex as both had key points and clues about the upgrade (especially seer cage) that were better to know than from one source alone. Good luck.

Enjoyed the video very much. Great learning experience for me and you earned a new subscriber!

Im not sure which cz i have all it says on the slide is CZ75 compact it has a safety no decocker it does have a rail and its all steel i changed the sights to truglo tfx which made a big difference its a tack driver i love it

A lot more people are doing AIWB and pointing it at their junk. That makes DA-SA a lot more attractive. I also think people are seeing that there’s a middle ground in weight where the gun is smoother to shoot than all these featherweights, but with a good rig, just as easy to carry. We’re going to continue to see thinner frame metal guns that weigh nearly what the polymers do and have similar capacity. 2011 grips showed us that the grip can even be a separate piece from the frame and handle stress well. The future is bright!

Love my po1 Omega and 75b Omega---to dryfire these czs use a rubber o ring on top of firing pin and save wear and tear on the firing pin roll pin...

I’ve had/have many guns but just got this one. Gladly like your knowledge, thanks

I cannot for the life of me understand why but this dude activates my spidey sense

This is a super random pro-tip but if you have a mechanical watch you don't want to be shooting with it on as the concussion can damage it. If you're rocking a Casio it's probably not a consideration but if you have a Rolex or a Jeager-LeCoultre you may want to consider taking it off first. If you have a quartz watch, don't worry about it.

Yeah, it's discouraged although the watch can endure it. Mine for example, the website specifies to avoid shock such as from playing golf, and I like to keep it clean from shooting dust, so I just remove it for more comfort.

Does anyone use the lanyard loop, and what for? I guess you could hang your keys from it, or a P-38.

I despise the rubber grips they come with. I also don’t care for the stock half moon or whatever trigger it has. DA pull was brutal to get used to on my first range trip especially past 10 yards. Overall pretty sweet shooter though. I’m kicking around going with Cajun pro package or the apex tactical kit. Haven’t decided yet.

Great review, and the P-01 is my favorite firearm. As for the Olight, I wouldn't use one if they gave it to me for free. The fact that they pay shills...I mean people... to give positive reviews is a deal breaker. Integrity matters!!!

Great review and video. Thanks for laying out both the pros and cons. What holster were you running in this video? Do you recommend it?

I love this thorough review. I’ve recently been shooting different CZ’s at the range. And almost all of them were so impressive. The comfort of their grips is pretty crazy. It’s that swell that most of them come with that makes it so comfortable to hold. And the recoil was so minimal. Even for me! A new shooter and all lol. And also, not to make it awkward but I’m gonna make it awkward. Every time your shirt got caught and your belly showed when you shot…😬🥴🥵 Sorry. Not sorry.

Just sent mine out to primary machine to have a 407k mounted on it. Going to get the CGW omega kit and adjustable trigger. I'll bring it by so you can check it out when I'm finished with it

If we get another green one, I’ll let you know

0:57 yup, good idea to clear that runny nose before the close up shots

Thanks for making this video. What kind of appendix holster do you recommend for the P01 ?

I just bought a shadow 2 and it shoots like a dream.

I have yet to find a polymer 9mm that shoots as well as this gun without a red dot

I’ve owned the CZ75 b in .40, sold it, then in Jan 2018 bought the CZ75 PCR, still have it, I wanted the P01, but it was not there, so I got the PCR, I wonder if it’s as good as the P01?

I don't get the whole "Never use the slide stop." doctrine. If it's a quality pistol, the slide stop shouldn't be an issue at all, plus it's faster.
