Yes! That's the name that for the life of me, I could not remember. Thank you! It was driving me nuts and then I just forgot about it. haha

@@SquireSCA Yeah,.. I know how the older we get,.. The easier to forget things!😄

I respect everyone's opinion,but I'm taking my 75s over my 1911s

Better trigger pull, but the hammer is one of the things that slows the slide down during recoil. The slide stop will get more abuse and probably break sooner.

I like the P07 a lot, but this was to round out my military pistol collection...

it just fits the hand like a glove, and the ergos are better than any Glock I have ever held...

Yeah, they are popular here now, but for many years during the cold war, they were hard to get in the US. So the rest of the world got to enjoy them and we got to read about them... Once the cold war ended and relations with eastern bloc countries normalized, we started importing more of their guns and their popularity here exploded. Some folks think they are new, but they are one of the world's oldest arms manufacturers...

It's a P01, as the title and number on the side of the gun imply. haha

@@SquireSCA I meant which would you choose

Never tried the 229 Legion, so honestly can't compare...

I do hear a lot of the same things, but have not tried any of their parts or services myself. I tend to not modify guns, especially if its something I might carry for defense. If a gun "needs work" to make it shoot well, then I won't buy the gun to begin with...

Either way, it works. :-)

No worries, I don't script these out and so sometimes I make "verbal typos" and don't catch it till later... haha

Clearly, it borrowed a lot of things from the BHP. It also had similarities to the Sig as you mentioned... But it had a lot in common with the BHP: Both are chambered for 9mm. (Later versions of both are also chambered in .40 S&W.) Both were conceptualized for military use. Both are similar in size & weight, with the CZ being slightly larger. Both have a 1:10 twist. Both utilize barrels with locking lugs, which is straight from John M. Browning. Both are recoil operated. Both have the mainspring below the barrel. Neither uses a detachable barrel bushing. Both pistols' grip panels are secured with one screw each. Both have external hammers. Both have thumb safeties. Both are capable of cocked-and-locked carry. Both use detachable double-stack magazines. Both use external pivoting spring-loaded extractors, although the early Hi Powers used an internal one. Both use pivoting triggers. Both have a relatively few number of internal parts compared to some other designs. Both guns have lightening cuts on the front of the slide. (Later versions of the CZ-75 do not.) Both guns (CZ-75 Pre-B) use a slide stop retaining plate to secure the firing pin and spring. Both guns use a push-button magazine release located at the rear of the trigger guard. Both guns originally came with ring hammers. (The Hi Power and CZ-75 were produced with spur hammers for a number of years. CZ went back to an abbreviated ring hammer. The Hi Power used the old factory ring hammer in the Practical model.) Both use a one-piece feed ramp. Both have been copied and used outside of their respective nations of origin. So far it would seem that the Hi Power and the CZ-75 are like peas in a pod, but let's take a look at differences.

Cajun Gun Works seems to have the best stuff for the CZ

Correct.

I mean, I wear a XL or 2XL glove, depending on the brand, and you can see how the gun fits in my hand if that gives you an idea. I feel like it's perfect, and there are aftermarket grip panels that can be thicker or thinner, depending on what you want.

@@SquireSCA awesome that helps. Thanks

Grip is about same as a P229, height & width wise.

No, because the slide fits inside the frame, its narrow and has less material to get a grip on, and the recoil spring is fairly stout.

Damn right. haha

Go Dawgs!

P01

@@SquireSCAThanks for the recommendation. Why would you choose the 01 over the PCR?

@@stephen562 honestly, it's just what they had in stock that day. Haha

@@SquireSCA Haha, that’s probably what I’ll do. Whichever I see first is what I’ll get. I think they are essentially the same pistol minus the dust cover/rail aesthetics.

It was the same for me when I ordered mine. I wound up choosing the P-01 for the squared off nose alone. It is my Bedside/Farm Carry so I also have a Streamlight TLR-9 on it. They are both excellent options and you will not be disappointed by either. It really comes down to whether you need a light or like the the looks of one better than the other. Enjoy!

I get to the range when I can. I stocked up and hoarded ammo and now I am hesitant to burn it up. Haha

Your screen name... What does it mean?

@@SquireSCA Nothing in particular.

I can relate but life is too short not to shoot and enjoy these classic handguns. I do evaluate my self-defense guns differently than my "range toys" in that I extensively test each self-defense gun for ammo (especially hollowpoint) reliability, especially after any modifications. And I am definitely a Cajun Gun Works fanboy!

@@Sirgromulus The name made me think of the SCA. I know a Sir Romulus, but the G in between was throwing me off. haha

Yeah, why not? It's designed for withstanding shearing down from gears, extreme heat, etc... If it holds up in a motor at 16,000rpm why wouldn't it work for lubing a gun between range sessions?

Depends on the type of competition. if more of a defensive type with carry guns like IDPA, then yes. If you are talking more like IPSC or 3 gun competition, folks tend to go for the larger guns like the CZ Shadow 2, or something like that...

Check out the new Shadow 2 compact ;)

Yeah, its sorta my curse... My brain is always a few sentences ahead of my mouth, so sometimes words run together, or I say the wrong one when I meant the other one... a sorta "verbal typo"...

Not even sure what you are talking about?

@@SquireSCA CZ cases have a little push tab in the handle area. Your box opened right up so the tab broke. To open a CZ case you have to flip up the clips and press in the handle area to release and open it

@@Baymore8 Ahh... To be honest, I wouldn't have noticed nor cared about that. It's a tab on a case. The main tabs work, the gun is sublime, that's what I focused on. haha

I pick up my P01 in a couple weeks. For sure i'm betting the shop will tear that box open. I know it doesnt matter in the end but fingers crossed...

Yup, couldn't remember till after I posted the video.

@@SquireSCA Yeah, sorry about that. I took a look through the comments to make sure someone hadn't already said it. I DID find the comment you pinned afterward, just didn't delete mine.

@@occamsrazor1285 Yeah, no worries...

California is whack. Amazing geography, but the people are insane. GA isn't racist, any more than any other state. They just say that, so that they can dismiss anything coming out of GA without having to actually debate it. Eg. Our new election laws, that protect voter integrity... The laws we enacted, have already been on the books in NY and Delaware, Biden's home state. But when we enacted them, suddenly we are racist and they are not? They claimed our new laws would prevent minorities from voting, meanwhile, since our new laws took effect, we have seen massive increases in voter turn out, early voting, etc... There is nothing racist about making sure that the votes being cast, are from legal residents and that they only get to vote once. lol There is a reason why millions of people have fled CA and moved to TX and GA, among other red states... I wonder if the guy you talked to, understands that its was the Democrat Party that fought to KEEP slaves, and that founded the KKK, wrote Jim Crowe laws, etc...?

@@SquireSCA I didn't bite. Not my place but part of your last point was on the tip of my tongue. I probably know a lot more about US history than the average American. Cali? Done that, got the T-Shirt, won't be back. It's drained my bank account on taxes & fees!

@@SigmaJAD And that is a shame, because in many ways, it's an amazing state... But it's insanely expensive, the regulations are oppressive and the average person is so out of touch with reality because they live in this ideological echo chamber... GA is a fantastic state, with a lot of similar geography, but more level headed and cheaper to live, hence why half of the film industry has moved to GA. Ever watch Ozarch on Netflix? It's filmed literally down the street from me. Avenger's movies, all sorts of tv shows, Walking Dead, the list goes on. And we have riding areas equal to anything in California... And the southern accent here, is largely based on the large settlement of Scotch and Irish that came to the early colonies.... When I was in Scotland, I immediately realized where the accent around here came from, it was obvious... It's changed over the years, but the roots are there, clearly...

@@SquireSCA cheers Dave. Not the platform to convo, too much to chew over. Myself & Mrs planning anorhet Eastern US trip maybe in a couple of years (6th US visit if it comes off). Maybe I'm wrong but to form a conclusive opinion on something, you have to experience it. To be fair Cali people from San Fran to San Diego have been super friendly. Maybe it's cos I'm a scotch git?

@@SigmaJAD It's not that most of them aren't friendly... It's that most of them politically, have no ties to reality. They tend to put feelings and intentions above all else, and they completely ignore the cost of things, or whether they actually work or not. I can be friends with Liberals, because my politics are mostly based on facts, logic and the rule of law. As such, I can compartmentalize people from their beliefs. Most Liberals, ARE Liberals because they feel rather than think. Their politics are based on emotions, and so they are too intertwined to separate the person from the belief. Hence why they say stupid things like "Republicans want to make black people slaves again", when it was the Republicans that freed the slaves and Democrats who continue to crush the black community with their policies in all these big blue cities... Anyway, hope you make it back! I think you would love this part of the country.

Where in the 30k rounds did they occur? If its the first 100 rounds while it is breaking in and loosening up, not a big deal... If its towards the end of 30k when springs and things are wearing out, then also not a big deal, right?

It's hard to know these days, as it says Bainebridge GA on some guns, but not on others... My taurus 856 Executive, is made here in GA

@@SquireSCA Yes very tough to tell with them. The gx4 has a sticker that says built in the USA but it's made in brazil and assembled here. I hope the plan is to do more in the states but I don't think so due to costs. I am not positive but I think it is an ATF requirement that the importer has to have their address such as Bainbridge GA stamped on the firearm.
