I have an SP-01 Tactical (with the night sights), and it's one of the most accurate, low-recoil, low muzzle flip 9 mm's I've ever fired. A tack driver, it points very naturally, and it's great fun to shoot. The ergonomics and the feel of it in the hand are incredible, and when you fire, the slide seems to come straight back like a push, and in line with the bullet's trajectory. It's a keeper.
@Tin Man That was my first ever CZ. I have the Shadow 2 etc and I still find myself shooting it a lot for all the reasons you said! Thanks for watching, greatly appreciated!
I just fired this gun for the first time yesterday, and I loved it. Extremely accurate, well balanced, very little muzzle flip. I love this gun so much, it just exudes quality, I can’t imagine a better quality gun existing, especially for that price. 5 stars, two thumbs up, I couldn’t recommend it more.

@@KeanonGilliamSlang369 You must have forgotten about the SP-01 Shadow, the CZ 75 SP-01 made for competition. The Shadow 2 is a completely different animal.
@@xithappens Oh yes, I have thr SP-01 Shadow Target II, it's discontinued a couple of years the reason why I didn't think of it. You're correct, trigger upgrade etc. BTW the SP-01 in this video I sent it to Cajun Gunworks, converted it to SAO etc in my videos.
@Kevin Derynck Thanks! I had my SP-01 Urban Grey Tactical Cajunized and just sent my P-01 for the same treatment. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!
SP 01 or SP01 tactical. I can’t decide. And can’t find one to try on before ordering. I did try the Shadow in target is what they said! It was an out of worldly experience in single action pull. : ))))
For information the SIG P210 from the Swiss army dating from 1949 has the same kind of slide running inside the frame. And 70 years later they are still perfect and very accurate .
@DANIEL STAINIER Thanks for the information, didn't know it at the time I did this video.. I knew Sig started producing a newer version. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!
I picked up a CZ 75 P-01 recently and was pleasantly surprised of how good it felt in my hand. Not to mention that it is a great shooter and good backup carry gun. (I prefer carrying a 1911 chambered in .45acp or .38 Super over 9mm.)
You know what they say, once you get one, you'll get more. CZs are that addictive. I've upgraded some of my CZs with Cajun Gunworks upgrades etc. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!
I know that you made this three years ago, but it is still relevant today during the plandemic. Fell in love with my recently purchased cz 2075 rami and a sp 01 may be my next purchase? Like metal guns so maybe the shadow. Also you do a very nice job with all your videos. SE MI
@Will William Thank you! The Rami is a nice firearm. I fired one couple of times. The SP-01 is my first CZ and I still shoot it a lot. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciate it!
@calderon2091 This was my first CZ, this is the one that started me buying Czs. Hope you enjoy yours when you get it! Thanks for watching, greatly appreciated@
I really enjoyed listening to and watching your presentation. I am on the fence between the CZ 75 SP01 and a Desert Eagle 1911 and your narrative filled in a lot of the gaps for me. Thanks.
@Hardy Birch Glad I could help. Unfortunately I never come across the Desert Eagle 1911 in my area to give you an opinion. I love the SP-01 and I bought other variants of it. Good luck with your decision. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciated.
@EDDIE PAKBAYRAM Thanks, this was the first CZ I bought. I have other higher end CZs but this is still a favorite. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciated!
@@vincitomniaveritas9300 Both firearms a good I just prefer the SP-01 because of the full dust cover and rail for a light or lazer. Also the dust cover adds a little more weight helping flatter shooting.
@mheath717 Nice, I'm kinda old school so I leave everything stock. I hear people who upgraded really love their SP-01. Might have to try it in the future. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciated.
@Wayne T I may have mistakenly said that but it is a cold hammer forged barrel per CZ website. Sorry for the mix up. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciated!
@@waynet8327 The SP-01 is a very good firearm. Very accurate, combat ready and you can upgrade springs etc if you want to in the future. Once you get this one you'll want more CZs lol.
What about the SP01 Shadow? It looks like your gun, but has fiber front and Novak type rear sight, longer mag button, wider ambi safety. Longer barrel as well here in Oz. I think there may even be more versions.
You're absolutely right. There is a CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow Target 2 and also there is the CZ Shadow 2 (I have that one check out my video) CZ make very fine pistols. Thanks for viewing.
There are 4 modelsof this gun..sory, you missed to mention the cz75 sp01 SHADOW...which is firing pin block free and because of that has better trigger! But, it's ok man!! 🍻🍻
@Alex The Beast That was my very first CZ a while back lol. Since then I have a Shadow 2, SP-01 Shadow Target 2, and the Bull Shadow. I've been addicted the CZ. Thanks for watching, greatly appreciated! 👍 #CZLIFE
I agree with you. I'm a 1911 guy and this beats the decocker version for sure. Although I might add, I find my SP-01's single action pull has way too much creep. Sort of squishy, and with a long reset. But with an attached weapon light it's a great nightstand sidearm.
Muna I've been using DA/SA pistols since 1985, those and 1911's were the only thing available at the time before Glocks and others striker fire pistols. I use a variety of pistols now. You have to be proficient in the pistol (s) you want to shoot or carry.
man i got the p09 so far its my best shooter but i also have a grand power k100 i havent shot yet but my p09 makes me look good at the range i mean the range oficers was like wow he a great shot lol im not that good its the gun its very accurate, it puts rounds on target so easily, next im going to put in the cgw pro package in my p09 i cant imagine it shooting any better but i havent shot a shawdow thats my next purchase its should be even better im getting hooked on the cz pistols i just cajunized my pcr thats the reason i havent shot the grand power yet lol
like my p09 is stock and the da is 8 pounds and the sa is 3.5 pounds i told david of cgw over the phone that my trigger was already great but he said that his parts would make it better like a smoother action, so im going to get the pro package for it, my birthday is coming up in June, so thats gonna be my birthday present to myself lol
if they had more than one at store would have bought them all...hard to find the tactical one is a pos decocker hits your right hand and if you can't decock a gun like a revolver maybe you should stick to air soft

Love the CZ's..... Had the P-01 and just picked up the SP-01.

My CZ manual wasn't in English. Also, my foam cut-out came as if it were made for a lefty, with the handle on the left and the barrel facing right.
@Kevin M Really, that's the first I've heard of that. Might have been intended to go to another country.
I suggest u return the pistol just for datto! Or, b smartOh! n flip the foam. Play

Thanks for the sub
People don’t know how to explain simply and clearly what double action is and how it works.
single action does one thing. (shoots) double action does two things.( releases the safety and shoots)
do you have just the P-01. I wanna see if it compared to this
great review,
awesome firearm, I see you have a beautiful collection.
in your opinion what company do you think makes the best 1911.
Frank Colletti I'm partial to Kimber but Springfield is the best for the money.
Keanon Gilliam Thank you Keanon,
love your videos and love your awesome collection.
iammo, $539 for this model, CZ 91152
@William Putnam That's a great price, I paid $610 at the time I bought mine. 👍
That method of going double action is very dangerous. It's just too delicate to be using on a regular basis.
Muna I've been using DA/SA pistols since 1985, those and 1911's were the only thing available at the time before Glocks and others striker fire pistols. I use a variety of pistols now. You have to be proficient in the pistol (s) you want to shoot or carry.
Muna Safety is the most important thing with "all" firearms regardless of type of trigger action, carry method etc
"Tired of the polymer guns"........... HALELUJA!!! now try the shadow 2.
PE J Read my mind been looking to get a Shadow 2. Thanks for viewing.
looking forward to the same review of the Shadow 2. There aren´t that many reviews of it yet.
I will take my cz 85 b any day
@Jon Boss CZ makes great firearms. I just recently customized this firearm with Cajun Gunworks. Check out the video.
