Wait I see all the parts they replaced :/ It?s so hard to keep this gun at this point.

I really wish I would have seen this thread earlier. I just bought an Omega P-01 on Thursday.

Go shoot some 124 gr through it and report back

I try to get there later today. If not, tomorrow for sure. I just happen to have some 1124gr.

That?s just the weight bullet that did it the easiest on my gun

1.  Is yours a 2016 or 2017 model?  Should be a number, right in front of the ejection port that tells you what year it was made.  I don't think anyone's had an issue with the 2016 made Omega P01's.

2.  Are you going to run the decocker levers?  Or the safety levers?  I'm not sure if anyone with a 2017 pistol has had this issue while running the safeties (but my mind may be slipping).
I just keep wasting time and money on other brands trying to find/make one shoot like my P07 and P09.  What is wrong with me?

I have a 2014 75B Omega (non conversion (no decocker option)) The extractor appears to be the same style. It can be pushed down with the same ease as the P01. (travel seems to be equal as well) I'd like to take the P-01 to the range before pulling it apart to measure the extractor cut out on the decocker to compare it to that of the 75B. I suppose I can pull the P-01 safety out of the box and compare the 75B to that one. Since my 75B is safety only, I wonder why it doesn't fall out the same as the P-01.

****I have tried to get my decocker to fall out by turning to the left and pushing down on the extractor. I was unable to duplicate the same outcome.****

I have a 2017 P01 Omega in which I can re-create the malfunction with the decocker levers and the slide fully back with the recoil spring removed as demo-ed in the video on page 1 of the thread.  I doesn't happen with the safety levers. 

From what I can see and others have alluded to (forgive me if I'm being redundant...I haven't read all 16 pages of this thread so far), the decocker spring tends to put some lateral pressure to the left on the left decocker lever so that if the ejector is depressed with the slide fully back and the hammer under tension from the slide, the left lever tends to move laterally to the left enough that the detent in the left lever disengages from the frame allowing the lever to rotate upwards and lock up the pistol.

I only plan on using the safety levers anyway, but I am interested in seeing what becomes of the issue.

I have bought the CZ 75 Omega a week ago.
With about 300 rounds, no malfunctions, but I can't swap from decocker to safety. The safety will not seat in its assign place.
Contacted CZ twice, with no answer back from them.

Correct, when I run safties in mine, they will drop free of the firearm if the failure mode is recreated. Reference the fix video, around 2:50 in.

Mine did the same thing. It looks like CZ filed/ polished my safety to get it to seat, but now I have the issue shown above. Dimpling is the only way to actually solve this.

Well I only ran 150 rounds through it. I did not have an issue with the decocker. I feel like an idiot though. When I purchased the gun, I didn't realize it was used. I should have known by the blue price tag. New tags are yellow. Anyhow, I noticed the decocker spring is from the P-07. So someone has been in it already. What I did find wrong is, there's no trigger reset until you let the trigger all the way out. As you pull the trigger back, the reset "clicks" then I can fire the next round. I'm going to hang on to this one until there is a recall or Cajun Gun Works comes up with a solution. This pistol is dead nuts on.

I have to take my finger completely off the trigger, then pull back to feel the reset. (Approximately 1/8") I will try to post a vid tonight. I had to scrap my photobucket account due to pop ups and the high cost of their upgrade. I will open an imgur account tonight.

That?s weird . I?d take it apart and see if something is put in wrong .. shouldn?t have to release the trigger all the way
