You know that saying about a fool and his money? I think that Gunbroker sale was a prime example of it...  8)

3K wow... crazy.   I'm kicking myself for not buying 4 of the polished stainless that were available, I kept looking at them for about 3 days, almost ready to buy more. I knew I should have.   And then boom.. gone.  I only got one.   They are fantastic looking.

    Hiya, think everyone should have at least one PO-1, so I'd say yes you should.I've never bought or sold off gun broker. No bites on trying to sell my Evo,Bren,97b,or M4 here, so any info on if I can advertise them on their site? Good or not so good stories to tell. Be well.

I have a P01 Omega and a PCR. Both have been to the Cajun spa. I?ve used them both successfully in IDPA and depending on my dress and the weather, carry them.

I find they are the best balance between size, ergos, caliber, weight, and capacity. 

If I could have only 1 gun (God forbid) it would likely be one of these two. Other carry guns compromise too much to be an all around capable gun IMO.
Question.  Is the trigger reach the same in DA on the PCR and the Omega?

Apologies for not responding sooner. The two guns do have different triggers, I prefer the omega trigger shape. My PCR has CGWs 85 series trigger vs the stock serrated PCR trigger.  That said, the trigger reach is about the same for me, not much discernable difference for me.

See post 4 in link below for my PCR and P01 Omega

Thanks for that info.  Local CZ dealer has the P01 Omega but not the PCR.  Really liked the feel of the P01 but not the looks so much.  Hoping to see if PCR looks as good as in pics and I can make a side by side comparison.  The 75 Compact gonna have to go as it just doesn?t fit my hand comfortably.

I just purchased a 2019 production run P01 Omega. The trigger reach is shorter than that of a (non-Omega) P01.  While not straight, the Omega trigger is definitely less curved than the "normal" P01.

If you look on CZ's website, the regular P01 (https://cz-usa.com/product/cz-p-01-9mm-black-alloy-14-rd-mags/) and PCR (https://cz-usa.com/product/cz-75-d-pcr-compact-black-alloy-9mm-14-rd-mags/) definitely have a more forward-curved trigger than the Omega (https://cz-usa.com/product/cz-p-01-%CF%89-convertible-omega/) has.

I have short fingers and had issues getting a good trigger placement in DA with the normal P01.

Had no such issues with the Omega, which played a large part in my purchase decision.

    I strongly considered the P-01 but went with a PCR (stock sights and dust cover). I think they're both great pistols. I thought I'd throw a question for the faithful out there as it relates to the thread.
...the "NATO" certification? Am I correct in that the P-01 (not Omega) is the CZ that has met the criteria? Is it all or some P-01s that have a NATO number? Is there any difference? Forgive me if this has been covered, I didn't see it directly addressed anywhere.

Duner,

Congrats on the pickup! You?re going to love that pistol.

Mark,

I?m not sure on the Omegas, but my non-omega P01 carries NATO certification
I’ve got a few CZ’s...

My first handgun purchase was a brand new P-01 in 2011 and I have used it as my main carry / nightstand gun since then. I carry it IWB at 3:30 with a flush fit mag and have thin aluminum grips on it.

If you like CZs, you should get one or a PCR. They're a couple of the best compact carry guns ever made in my opinion.
