Special ed compacts, P01’s etc?
« on: November 11, 2021, 08:04:10 AM »

Just ran across a compact “L” model, and realized there are probably a bunch of special made models, add to the list if know of any. The ones that come to mind: SDP, Protek1, Protek 2, Shadowline, steel frame?


I wish CZ would give us more P01s like they do with the bigger guns. I just picked up a SP01 comp red amd thought a P01 version would be awesome!

Agree.  Would like to see a aluminum frame SP-01 Tactical.  Shot  a Phantom (polymer frame) and it just did not feel right.

Hope CZ is listening to both of us.

The closest I’ve found is a Canik 75B clone with alloy frame, model L-120. Guess it didn’t sell they discontinued it. Too bad really it’s a great handling gun.

My favorite “special” model was the P01 with the NATO number stamp. Just a standard P01 with the NATO inventory number on it and people spending ++$$$ to buy it. WOW.

I have an old(2000 model) 75D Compact with a PCR slide, slanted front and rear serrations, and the light groove in the rail doesn’t go all the way across….VERY cool oddball.

Is this simply marked different or is it enhanced in anyway?

I have one of those, too. Just Cajunized it back in September. Mine is still in "original" condition, black with lots of wear.
