Decipher, do you know if the TruGlo TFX Pro sights would also work with the P-07 2nd generation?

I use those sights on my Ruger's and love them; would like to use it on my new SD carry CZ P-07 as well.

Would hate to spend the $120 if not.

Sorry for the delay!  I see no reason why they wouldn't.  The only thing I question is if your Point of Aim will be the same as Point of Impact since the later generations where using varying sizes of front post sight to adjust for elevation.  Did you pull your front sight post and check the number on it?

just wanted to say thanks for the info you have provided so far!

I'm hoping you have a micrometer, could you measure the front post from the bottom of the sight to the top of your truglow?

I can then measure the number 3 and 4 sights I got from CZ and we can figure out some more info!

I think im going to bite on a set too but I needed to check this first for myself and everyone.

That's frustrating. The P07 is such a great gun that it's entirely discouraging that not even CZ is supporting night sights for the platform. To answer your question, I don't know. I wanted to originally order CZ sights but they didn't even offer anything for the P07.  This is why I'm stoked about this TruGlo option.

CGW will be releasing some night sights for the P-07/P-09 very soon...

Has anyone else had luck with the TFX sights on the gen 2 P-07?

Hello there.

What gun did you purchase the TFX sights for? I don't think TruGlo makes sights specifically for the CZ, so I was curious which make and model you based your choice on. I have an 07 myself and looking to buy new sights.

Thanks.

I just joined this forum to answer this question once and for all.  I have been in pursuit of night sights for my Gen 1 P07 for a long time and I keep getting conflicting information regarding your exact question...does the CZ 75 sight fit the P07?  The answer is YES, they do in fact fit the P07, but with a few things to note.

I decided I'd go out on a limb and ordered the TruGlo TFX sights from Amazon. I just fitted them up yesterday (2/14/16) and I can confirm that both the front and rear drifted beautifully into place on my Gen 1 P07 with minimal efforts and ZERO shaving or modifications of the sights. That being said, there are two things to note. First, you must pull your factory front post and note the number under it. Being a first gen, my factory sight post is #1, meaning it is the lowest factory sight setting. This may be an issue as my factory sight post measures at 5mm (#1) and the Truglo sights are 5.5mm. Secondly, the rear sight sits slightly taller and rests just above my slide instead of sitting flush on the slide. It's not enough to snag on anything and it's not a lot, but it doesn't sit flush. This variance may actually level out my Point of Impact with the slightly taller front sight. I'm also confident this will not stress the sight, as they are machined metal and high quality. The only question is how this will effect my point of aim and point of impact. I will be going to the range this week to see what impact this change has. There's a good chance it has altered POI, but I won't know for sure until I run some rounds through it. I will post back with my experience. For what it's worth, I have TFO sights on my M&P Shield and they have been flawless through thousands of rounds. Best sights out there as far as I'm concerned. That's why I was willing to give this a try. Worst case scenario is if my POI is grossly off, I can always put my factory rear sights back on and leave the very awesome, very bright front post in place with only a slight change in POI.  Again, I WILL post back this week with my results. 

I know there are other options out there, but there are literally none that I could find for my #1 front sight.  I am a huge fan and believer in the TruGlo system.  The fiber optic inserts are very bright for daylight shooting and the Tritium is superb for night visibility.  It's literally the best of both worlds.  Provided I am within an inch or two of POA and POI at defensive distances, I would consider these a viable option.  I am not doing competition shooting with my P07.  I am not trying to stretch the distance, though I will measure distance shots and variance with POI.  I will also post pictures as well.  I use my P07 for CCW and home defense.  I'm simply not reaching out to even 30 yards with it, but for this test, I will measure out 3, 5, 7, 10, 15, and 20 yards, though that is pushing it for precision firing.  Any other requests?

Decipher, never mind, I have just found your comment on Amazon regarding the sights. Just as I thought, they are the CZ75 sights. How long did it take them to arrive?

Decipher,
Thanks a ton for posting this.  There are a lot of questions on this forum about this specific item.

It's nice to have actual feedback instead of speculation. 

This is why these forums are so useful!
