CZ38

Looks to be somewhat rare and based on gunbroker auctions, it should be worth over $1,000.

it's a little larger than the compact, I find it a little easier to carry since it doesn't have the light rail.


The 75 Compact doesn't have a light rail. They made some like that for a while, but I've only seen a few used in .40 S&W since becoming CZ-aware in 2012.

Your brown-on-black color scheme looks good. Do you know the brand and model of your grips?

I, too, would like a large safety lever, but am concerned about how it will carry. How does yours carry? Holster?

Well that's interesting to say the least. I hope it stays together for you but peening a spring in place that can be considered a wear item is a rather curious repair. I know how they would have handled it years ago but well that was years ago.
Report back on how the gun functions when you get it back. If at all possible maybe you could get some pics of what they did?

Yeah, the "repair" worries me some. Sounds like something I could have done myself but we'll see when it arrives Monday. I'll be sure to snap some pics and post them.

CZ emailed me today to let me know what they did. I pasted it below. My P07 should be shipping back to me soon.
Case Notes:Disassembled firearm completely and inspected all components. Replaced trigger bar spring and peened into place. Reassembled firearm and function tested; no issues. Test fired 15 rounds CCI Blazer 115gr FMJ. Zero malfunctions, good ejection. Cleaned, oiled, and inspected firearm. All OK. NOTE: If trigger bar spring continues to fall out, please contact CZ-USA.

The bar tip was "peened" or the plastic around the hole was "peened?"

I know, I know, the reply from CZ USA didn't specify.  Years ago I had an issue with two plastic pins holding the trigger assembly in the frame of a 10/22 coming out.  Falling out really, when I was trying to clean the rifle.  I installed them, laid the rifle down on a solid surface to support the left side of the pins.  Then I used a center punch and small hammer to swell the right sight of the pins.  Then I flipped it over and did the same for the left side of the pins .  Zero issues with the pins falling out after that.

So, I've wondered about using a punch to mash the area around a hole in the frame.  I haven't done it.  Just wondered about it.  Of course, the other side of that is putting some rough surfaces on the ends of pins that hold parts in the frame if you're having an issue with them moving.  Haven't had to do that yet.

OP, hope it works and keeps working for you.

You can also install a heavier sear spring or a heavier trigger return spring as well.

You may also just want to just try out the CGW package.  It may grow on you and is 100% safe and reliable.

Cheers,
