Welcome to the PCR Club

[Radom]

This section of the CZ Forum is dedicated to discussion of the second 75/85 series compact pistol, the CZ 75D PCR Compact. There are also separate Clubs for the other 75/85 series compacts. The PCR was the first CZ to feature alloy, rather than all-steel, construction. Ceska Zbrojovka designed this model for the  Police of the Czech  Republic.

In Europe, this pistol is often called the CZ 75D Compact, which is somewhat confusing, since the P-01 has also been marked with this model name for Europe.  The Novak-style sights are a give-away that the model is indeed a "PCR."

I knew I should have checked here first to answer this question.    Huge thanks for this tidbit of information. I was just asking a seller on Gunbroker about a listed P-01 that had "CZ 75 D Compact" stamped on the slide. I'd never seen that before and questioned the authenticity of the pistol. This helps out a ton.

Does anyone know what year the PCR was first introduced?  Accordingly to my slide marking, i have an 2002.

Hi everyone!  I purchased several handguns over the last year and have to say... This CZ is my absolute favorite!
