Hello,
I own a CZ P07 manufactured year 2022. Is this pistol centerfire?
Does it have a Firing pin block?
If yes, that means I may dryfire with a totally empty chamber without a snapcap, and this will not cause any damage onto my pistol ?
Looking forward to hear from you soon,
Kind regards,
MICHEL

Hi -
We see you posted your identical question in 6 different threads within this forum. Not only is this NOT necessary, it's fairly bad form. Please don't do that again.
Thank you.

Sounds like you're new to guns.
If it's stamped 9MM it is a centerfire.
I would not dry fire without a snapcap or o-ring. Some pistols can damage the firing pin retaining pin pretty quickly. That's the roll pin (pin with a hole in the center) you can see if you look at either side of the slide between the ejection port and rear sight. It holds the firing pin in place in side the slide. Dry firing smacks the notch in the firing pin into the back of the firing pin retaining pin pretty hard if you don't use either a snap cap or "rubber" o-ring to control the forward movement of the firing pin when the hammer strikes it. If you do a search on the forum here you can find lots of posts about the o-rings. What to get, places to get them, reminders to remove them when done with your dry fire session.
Yes, the P07 has a firing pin block to keep the firing pin from moving forward to strike the primer unless the trigger is pulled.
The P07 can be an awesome pistol. I'm still carrying mine (old DUTY model bought 12 years ago or so). Between buying it and today I've bought SIG, M&P, FNS, XD and other CZ pistols and those are in safes while the old P07 keeps getting carried/used several times a week.

Funny how that works! I like the P-07 so much, I got me a second.

Me, too. Bought a 9MM P07 and it didn't compare (trigger or group size) to the older .40. Then I found another DUTY model .40 a couple years older than mine and bought it, too.
