Ok here's the update. To start with, I got my CGW FP today and put it in. Did the pencil test and the gun is now g2g. I also got a response from CZ confirming that the firing pin was cut to be used as a display. The retailer I purchased it from simply made a mistake and shipped it thinking it was stock and a working firearm. Here's the quote which will also answer members questions about the release date. "The P-09 that you purchased from Riflegear was one of only 6 that we have actually shipped. The reason that it slipped out with the cut firing pin was because they were intended for display. I apologize for the inconvenience. I can ship you a new firing pin, and in the near future get you your backstraps. You are very lucky to have this item, as the flow of these new models is very delayed and will not see them in any number until May."
