I bought this gun a couple months ago, it is my first handgun. I chose it mostly based on the price, and the reputation CZ has for quality. However, after reading these forums I'm a bit worried. My mags drop just fine, loaded or empty. Trigger feels decent. But one thing I do notice is "the bulge" many of you are complaining about. I can also foresee my guide rod falling apart in the future. My serial number does start with a 5. Is this a sign of bad things to come? Did I buy the wrong gun?
I originally wanted an XD 9, but the CZ was $100 less, and the guy behind the counter had nothing but good things to say about CZ. I also really like the decocker, and DA/SA trigger. Plus, this gun just feels great in the hand. I think I picked up every gun on the market right now when I was looking for one, and the PO7 definitely fits me the best.
Maybe the forums are just making me paranoid, and making me look for problems that are hopefully just cosmetic...
