P-07 retired from Bullseye service, now a SD trainer, with CGW night sights

[Joe L]

I retired my P-07 from bullseye competition, removed the Burris FF3 3moa and Springer Precision mount, trimmed the beavertail of Sugru, put the medium grip on, trimmed the JB-Weld from the trigger a little.  Here is what it looks like now.



With the night sights, which are excellent,



I am out of Atlanta Arms 115 JHP so I tried a handfull of various 115 JHP while checking the rear sight position for a 25 yard zero with good results as shown below.  I also shot some Rem UMC 115 gr practice and gun class ammo from Academy Sports.  Best I could do was about a 4" group at 25 yards with the UMC. 



The Rem 115 UMC simply doesn't seem to do well in these CZ pistols, compared to how they shoot in a SIG.   The zero is certainly different between the rounds.  Looks to me like a 115 JHP should be just fine.  I moved the rear sight over about .020" after this group and called it good. 

I only used the magazines with the standard base plates, no problems at all.  I'll try the extended ones and some magazine springs from a 75B next. 

I understand now why so many people like the P-07 pistols--not too big, not too small, just right...and still excellent mechanically.

I like mine even more than I thought I would. I think a magazine extension would make it nearly perfect.

IMO it absolutely does... The CZ +2 base pads are great. Time will tell how durable they prove to be but they are pretty inexpensive regardless.

Just curious, what is purpose of JB weld on trigger??

[Joe L]

JB Weld on the trigger--to increase the trigger reach for my long skinny fingers.  I did it on the P-09's and it worked well.  Most folks don't need it.  I only do it on the guns I shoot in bullseye matches or long distances.

My extensions were delivered today. I was right, nearly perfect
