Just got this yesterday. Zero rounds yet. DA is little bit heavy, but smooth. SA is just perfect for me.

Congrats.
By simple lowering hammer spring # you may find DA ok for you. If more needed switch DA roller and Trigger Return Spring for CGW ones.
Enjoy the pistol.

What hammer spring did you use in yours?

I used #13lb main spring. But it was 2 years ago, I was a rookie and was told to replace DA roller and Trigger Return Spring the same time, so I did it.
The final result was amazing. DA pull was light and smooth. I've been using this setup with laser cartridge for dry firing and all my students love it.

If you don't want to spend extra money, just start with main spring, perhaps that will be enough for you.
CGW says Trigger Return Spring will lower 0.5 lb only from DA pull. DA roller just make it smoother. But if you apply all 3 parts - you will feel difference for sure.

You only replaced the hammer spring with the 13# spring and did not replace the firing pin spring and the firing block plunger spring? No misfires?

That is correct.
In first handgun I replaced firing pin as well, because I wasn't sure and few people told me to do so.
But for the next one I didn't touch firing pin. I found few posts (there is thread about it, somewhere on this Forum as well) with info that you have to play with firing pin, whenever you go with mainspring #11.5 or lower.
However in both I replaced plunger's spring with "RP-FPBS Reduced Power Plunger Spring". I've just checked the invoices form CGW  ;)

I wrote that mainspring would be enough for start... and that seems to be true. I use my CZs mostly for dry firing practice, but I can feel that the handgun with all parts replaced has gotten a little better trigger pull (lighter and smoother).
And no misfires. But I shoot branded ammo only.

I'm a little late to the party but as a new P-01 owner I thought I'd jump in. This is my 5th CZ. I have 2 DA/SA 75 B, 2 SAO 75 B and a PCR. I did GCW packages to all the former and just did a CGW spring pkg and ext Firing pin replacement on the P-01. I haven't yet replaced the trigger return spring. I want a floating pin when I'm replacing that spring. Mine is an Omega NIB. It came with a horrible trigger, 12.5 DA and 9.5 SA and gritty. The worst I've felt to date. I but 100 rds thru it completely stock. A noticeable amount of grittiness was gone. So I installed the spring pkg and w/o shooting it I saw the DA pull drop to 9.5 lb and the SA went to 4.5. Yesterday I put about 150 rds thru it and it was sweet, sweet, sweet! The first 15 were all in the black at 10 yds. (3") Granted that target wasn't shooting back me at so I took my time. I would trust my life to that pistol and that's the highest praise there is. My PCR is the the same and I've carried that for almost 5 years. I just ordered Dawson Tritium sights for it and put VZ panels on it. I sold a Sig m18 with a Wilson grip module to buy the P-01 and lost money on the Sig but I'm a happy camper with the P-01 and the older PCR.
