I have two BHP's and a CZ 85B. I have bought my son a CZ 75B and my son in law a CZ 75 Compact. Sorry, my youngest daughter is 14 so if you think you want a free CZ you will have to wait several years.  ::)

I noticed someone posted a picture of mine where the BHP and the CZ are on a towel.  :)

My point about telling you what I got my children is this, when money is a determining factor and they don't have any handgun, I go directly to the CZ. I even showed a neighbor some of my handguns and recommended the CZ and he went and got a CZ 75B. He had to take a handgun for official training (he is the prosecuting attorney for the county) and the trainers were very impressed with the CZ and hadn't had anyone show up before with one.

Yes the triggers are different between the two firearms, but to me the trigger doesn't matter unless it causes unacceptable practical accuracy. For people with smaller hands the BHP is an option when the CZ is just too large. That is the reason I have the CZ 85B that I purchased, a local kid had bought it and found that his hands were just too small. His mistake saved me $75.00.  8)

The CZ 85B is my range gun and ready for defense if needed. My BHP's are the primary home defense setup, each ready to go and ready to go into a 72 hour kit in case of evacuation.

I am saving up to get a custom CZ pistol soon. That will be a treat.

My advice is if you want a BHP then get one. I wouldn't sell mine unless I had too, and since I have two of them I would actually sell the CZ first because the having two pistols the same means you can use one for parts if something breaks on it.

I find their practical accuracy the same. I do not find the triggers to be of an consequence, but maybe I am better than some for trigger control. Even though I just turned 51 I still lift weights four times a week, jog, and play some rough basketball games, so I have good hand and wrist strength. Not bragging, just saying that the difference in the triggers don't matter to me and I think those are the reasons why.
