Title: How to carry the CZ70?
Post by: CzechLord on May 17, 2023, 08:26:33 PM

Hello,

I got the CZ 70 a while ago. I like it and I want to make it my CCW. What condition do I carry it in? I stripped it and saw that there's a firing pin block, you can't really move the firing pin unless the the trigger is pulled. So condition 1 seems natural. My holster's retention strap also goes between the hammer when it's pulled back and the firing pin, and it's not going to get through that. But is there anything else that might go wrong with carrying cocked and locked with a round in the chamber?

Cheers

Another thing that I've considered was

• round in chamber
• hammer decocked
• safety off

so I'd carry it like a revolver. Even though there's nothing between the hammer and the firing pin now, the pin is blocked. Should be fine, and the DA pull is tough. Would eliminate fumbling with the safety, but would make the first shot less accurate. Thoughts?
