PCR Trigger
« on: November 23, 2014, 08:53:50 PM »
I'm thinking about adding to the cz collection with the PCR Compact and was curious if the trigger was any cleaner than the CZ 75D or RAMI. Also are there any night sights to add to this piece.
thanks,

FWIW, I just bought a PCR but due to California requirements, I wont get it in my hands until December 10.

With that said, I have shot a P-01 (just a PCR with rails) and a 75D.  I paid extra-careful attention to trigger pull on both using Blazer Brass 124GR (if that matters) because if there was one issue I read about over and over, its that a de-cocker makes the trigger pull less smooth then if there was only a safety (this is w/o any gunsmith improvements).  I put 25 rounds through the P-01 and the trigger felt fine.  I then put 25 rounds through the 75D and I thought the trigger was smoother....but juuust barely.

I concluded as in life, its what you get accustomed to and subconsciously, you make adjustments. For me, the PCR will be for range use and it may replace my Beretta 92FS for home defense (can't ccw in L.A.). I went and put another 50 rounds through the P-01 and shot it as well as my 92FS that has hundreds upon hundreds of rounds through it.  The trigger on the P-01 didn't detour me from choosing the PCR over the 75D.

These are mass produced pistols.  There will be variations in trigger feel from pistol to pistol even within the same model simply due to allowable part to part variation and dimensional tolerance stackups that are a fact of life in mass produced items.

Your question can't be answered in any accurate way.  I would just buy the pistol, shoot it enough to know whether the trigger is to your liking, and if it isn't either sell it or work the fire control parts over until you like it.

Same parts inside, same trigger. Stock CZ's triggers can vary a bit due to manufacturing but not by to much. The PCR comes stock with a wide serrated trigger that some people do not like the feel of. I am holding off judgement until i pick mine up.
Will work for CZ pics! (including but not limited to all CZ clones)

The trigger bars I have dealt with seem to have soon rough areas where they were machined.  Use of some fine jewelers files and polishing takes the grittiness away.  They will also smooth out after shooting several thousand rounds.
