Help me decide - 75 Compact or P-07

[AZ_CZ]

Compact.

All the full size mags will work and you can add a spacer for a fullsize grip. Why buy a gun that requires a whole different set of mags. Down the road when other vendors can enter the market and we start to see some competition and the price per drops then I will get on board. Maybe that's just me, I'm a mag hoarder.

Don't get me wrong I love me some P09 FDE and wouldn't pass on a gen 2 P07 deal, but I would love them a whole lot more at ~$25/mag.

Are you talking about a spacer for the mag or the SP-01 baseplate?

The SP01 mag base plate is the spacer that covers the extended mag body and provides the additional grip area.




How it's hanging: 14, 16, 18, 26 rnd mags.

Buy the compact and start saving for that 97B you will not be disappointed.

Ok.  I have some of the SP-01 base plates on a few of my 16 round mags for my PCR.  I was just thinking of a spacer as some that is independent slides between "this and that".

Know exactly what you mean. The little "part" that would between the frame and a standard SP01 mag! The 19 rnd Compact mag!

There are several companies that make a sleeve for the Glock 22 mag to fit the 23 the attach with a set screw ( they don't fit, tried it). You would think someone with a 3D printer would knock some out and sell them on flea bay.

For carry, the thinner slide where the gun goes in your pants is welcome.  My 75 compact is the most comfortable carry gun I have tried (9c, shield, 19, 17, XD, govt 1911).  It's somewhat heavy, but just the right size. It also takes recoil like a boss, for any gun, let alone one that size

Well I'm headed down this morning to check out the 75 Compact. If it's in the condition they say it's in I'll be making it mine.

Let us know how it looked today and if you are now a new owner.

[Westy]

Well it looked brand new - in fact after taking the slide apart I'm not sure it's ever been fired beside the factory test round. I'm happy to say it's mine. I just have to play the waiting game now - 3 day wait here in Illinois. The gun was located about 100 miles south of me so it might actually be next Friday before I can get it picked up, we will see how work goes this week.

Today was the first day getting the Compact in my hands and I liked the way it felt. Looking forward to some range time with it in the near future.

I snapped a couple quick pictures at the shop - more to come once I officially get it in my hands!!



Was it made in 2015 (assuming that's what the 15 stamped into the slide is)?

Congrats!

[viking499]

Congrats.  Yep, it's a 2105 model.

[AZ_CZ]

Nice!

Congratulations! Shoot it in good health and enjoy. A truly fine pistol.

Cheers

Are those the hard plastic or the rubber grips?

If they are the hard plastic, do yourself a favor while you are waiting and order a set of the factory rubber grips from CZ-USA. Best $30 you'll ever spend.
