My P-07 broke
« on: September 30, 2018, 03:08:23 PM »
Bought it used. I am sure it has had trigger work but I have no idea by whom. Recently purchased it and after cleaning put 120 rds through it. Shot great. So great that I ordered a Wright Leather carry holster. After cleaning it I was dry firing it about two weeks ago using a snap cap. After about 12 pulls the trigger failed to rebound. I can cock it back to single action and pull the trigger. It works. Will not pull in DA. I took it to a local gunsmith a week ago so now I am waiting. Very frustrating. Never seen anything like it.  >:( :(

Sounds like the dreaded trigger return spring that everyone can get to break but me. They are not hard to change. I'd get it back from the smith and fix it myself.

I agree, this is a pretty easy fix.

I had a trigger return spring break in my P-09 sent it to back to CZ  . They fixed it pretty quickly . My gun was like new old stock but they fixed it anyways . They paid shipping both ways .

Definitely nothing worth sending back to CZ or bringing to a gunsmith for. 2 minutes and it's swapped.

I never had the return spring break in either the 07 or the 09...hmm, that bites.

None of mine ever broke, but awhile back I installed the CGW reduced power trigger return springs anyway, just in case.  The CGW parts have a better reputation (for not breaking + slightly reducing trigger pull weights).
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?

It?s the only must replace part in the CZ.  It?s a shame but it?s a notorious QC problem for CZ.  I broke 7-8 in about a year many years ago.

Also, if CGW didn?t exist, CZ would have a MUCH harder time selling pistols in the US.

Gee I wish I could have one break and join this elite club. Sadly in tens of thousands of rounds fired through 7 different CZ's I've yet to break one.
As much as I like CGW I do have some of the CZ Custom enhanced springs on hand just in case,not interested in the reduced power version.
CZ would likely survive even without the US market.

Seems like I remember reading, here, that there was a batch of bad springs CZ used several years ago.  They went through a spell of broken trigger return springs, CGW started having better quality springs made and the CZ issue pretty much went away.

I remember a guy on another forum who bought a P09 9MM.  He loved it.  Shot great.  Trigger return spring broke.  He called CZ USA and they had him ship it back for repairs.  He got it back and he was happy, for two weeks till the replacement broke.  He got it fixed again and sold it.

Very true but not as well.

I believe it was a bad batch and I never had a gun from that batch. My 1997 vintage 75BD has north of 20,000 rounds fired and it's got it's original trs in place.

As I recall, it only took me an hour or so to change mine out. Did it as preventive maintenance. Don't want to try it again. Watched the youtube videos, none of them worked for me. Probably just the way I held my mouth.

Dude, we get it, you haven't had the problem; however, it exists.
