- So you want to buy a CZ pistol but if you started doing some research you noticed that there are a million different models for this gun and their naming is also not super intuitive.
➡️ CZ pistols can be confusing, with variations between them and differences that aren’t always clear.
In this video I’ll help you out with the common models, how they compare in handling, components, functionality, shape and more.
🔹 CZ 75 BD POLICE
🔹 SP01 Tactical
🔹 SP01 Shadow
🔹 CZ 75 D PCR
Most importantly I’ll explain how the naming refers to the special features of each.

"As short of a review as possible. No bullshit shooting videos. No stories.
All these guns are cleared, I'm not going to clear 4 guns on camera."
Just the way I like it, thanks for making this video.
The fact that people do that actually irritates me.
"Yeah, I HAVE to clear it because even if I were to ND, the show must go on and I WILL post it on TH-cam for literally everybody to laugh at me."
I know right?😍
The antithesis of Demolition Ranch. Love it. Subbed.
I didn't see him clear them, I thought he might shoot me through the internet!
Said no one ever. Good job, good info.
😂🤣😂🤣
Sold my Glock 19 to buy my first CZ, a PCR, now I own a SP-01 Phantom, and a P-07. The guns allow me to be a better shooter! (Nice Video)
PCR is a breeze to carry and very accurate. I've converted 1 or 2 Glock owners. I have had more than a few shooters at the range see target results and ask what I was shooting. Got some comments in classes I've taken about the PCR and all say the same, wow that is an accurate pistol. Have 2 full size 75B Omega pistols 1 swappable (home defense/ winter carry) and a standard pistol with a Kadet 22 conversion to teach with, love the platform without a doubt, second only to my Colt 1911 and TRP. CZ makes excellent pistols and rifles
You sound like a cool dude. I traded my glock for a p10F. Love that p07. May get me one in the future.
@@b-2466 Thanks! I love my CZ firearms… I have added a CZ Omega to my stable 😎
I've been shooting for 40 years, competed on a national level, a computer network engineer, Certified Information Systems Security Professional (not a technologically challenged senior citizen) and this is the best firearms-related video I have ever seen. Kudos to you and keep up the good work.
thank you sir!

CISSP is a beast of a exam
Love my CZ 75 SP 01 Shadow (could not have a longer name) Great gun, pounded the crap out of it, not one failure, ever. 10,000 rounds, not one failure. 😎
But yet it can have a longer name… “CZ 75 SP-01 Tactical Suppressor Ready”… that’s what mine is.
Greetings from Czech republic.
Nice video. And some informations to history. CZ 75 BD Police was new police carry gun since 1992. Before 1989 police had CZ 50/70 in 7,65 mm Browning and CZ 82 in 9 mm Makarov. CZ 82 is same as CZ 83 (7,65 and 9 mm Browning). Now (since 2000 I think) is standard police carry gun CZ 75 Compact PCR - and you have 100% right - PCR means - Policie České republiky - Police of Czech republic.
Thanks for the history!
Thanks for the perspective from Czechoslovakia. Midwesterns love CZ guns, there's a facility in Kansas. Motivate
Thanks!
Great history lesson, thanks for sharing.
I love the PCR shoots great carries very well, have the upgraded Mec-Gar 15 rd mags. Personally I feel a better gun than the Glock 19, that being said the 19 gets the kudos for best carry pistol, but the PCR for more accurate and a safer option. Agreed a learning curve for DA/SA but once learned its no problem. Ever have a light primer strike or hard primer in a 19? Well no problem for the PCR, squeeze trigger again and bang it goes. Had that problem on the range at a class with supplied ammo, (Legend FMJ), some ranges you must use their ammo! But I had no problem. Kinda a plus for DA/SA guns. Outside of that class I've never seen that in other classes I've been too or have been an RSO at. My 2 cents YMMV.
This is the DEFINITIVE video on CZ pistols.
Agreed!!!!!!
I found a pcr at my local gun store. They had 3 CZs come through there and I bought two of them.
I used to have CZ-75 Compact, I was given it, at my work, as security. It had no rail, it had no rail and it's full name was Cz-75 Compact B. I loved that gun! It had an amazing trigger!
I gotta say, my first gun was a CZ 75 BD recommended to me by the clerk at a store in San Leandro, way back in the early 2k’s. I had asked for a Browning HP, but they had to order one, so, I order the Hi-Power and took home the CZ. Was not disappointed.
I still laugh my ass off with the de cocker joke
that's because you're a boy.
I bought the SPO1 2 months ago and kept it stock so far. Best handgun I've owned to date.
I just got my first cz freaking love it😍😍😍
Sid Enjoy brother.
Welcome to Valhalla my friend. Feel free to feel free amongst us.
which one you get?
I've got 3 already and I'm sure I'll buy more hahag
This helped me make my decision of which model I want, and I love the editing btw lol.
By far the best breakdown video on the line up I’ve watched. Thank you
A no BS video, I like that.
Thank you sir!
My first CZ (or I should say CZs as I bought two at the same time) was a RAMI BD and a P01, and I love them both. The P01 I gave to CZ Custom for a trigger job and various other upgrades, and put on TFX Pro sights (a must have). It's now one of my favorite handguns.
Great video. I had a Cajunized PCR a while back but I sold it to a friend because I came into some hard times and needed the money. I’ve been looking around for a P-01 decocker for a while and finally found one the other day and immediately ordered the CGW pro package for it. I cannot wait for the Cajun kit to arrive. A couple hours of TLC and I’ll have that P-01 singing.
Thank you for this video... Exactly what I needed - all these models and variants were quite confusing to someone new CZs.
Assisting new buyers was the goal of this so I'm glad it helped!
This is a great video. Made me chuckle, and I learned something. Thanks!
Next purchase is a suppressor-ready P10C for the bedside, but that PCR looks like the right choice for concealed carry, whenever I start doing that. Thanks for the video 👍
Oh my Lord. I was laughing so hard at the images of a “decocker”! Absolutely hilarious! You made my day!
Excellent video for the CZ newb (me).
That decocker joke was really Hillaryous
Best gun description video ive seen to date, thx
Just picked up a Shadow 2 from the local gun shop. All I can say is wow, what a piece of machinery.
Nice attempt at clarifying the CZ model differences. Learning the models is half the fun of becoming a new CZ addict.
I almost died laughing at the pic of Bruce Jenner when you said decocker
Spoiler alert, damn lol. I need to stop reading comments before the video.
Nevermind. I still cracked up.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Me too!! Hilarious
Meh ... I thought the pics were stupid. To each their own, I guess.
Good video and info, just purchased my first CZ 75,P01 can’t wait to get it.
I just got a 75bd how are you doing with yours? Mine is heavy as a house but i love it all the same.
Good video. You answered a lot of the questions I had.
Awesome video, thank you! I got my first CZ (P01 omega) and now I have the itch to get more!
I got so lucky with mine. I saw it for like 2 months in this gun-hunting store. I was sure I was gonna miss out, but they kept saying I was the only one watching it. I was able to buy! Love my PCR
Thank you!!!!!!!!!! This has been such an informative comparison.
Thanks for making this video. I plan on buyung my first CZ this spring, and this really explains a lot.
No problem!
I don’t usually comment, but I feel obligated to say that your review is hands down one of the best reviews I’ve ever seen for any product. You did an excellent job.
Thank you sir! Glad it helped.
Exactly the video I was looking for. Wish someone would do this for sig, fn, and hk pistols. Thanks so much
hey man, I liked your review! ... haha, as a Czech guy, I would recommend you to go and visit czech republic. It is very nice place and you may actually see, we are not bad people. At least not all of us. Also, there is not that much drunk Ivans, as you may think. There is more drunk people, than Ivans. Ivan is more russian name than czech. I'm glad, you like product from country of my origin. Something what makes me to be proud of. I'm shooting SP-01 tac. and hope, you can give us more specific video how to make upgrades on those guns, in the near future. Keep up your GOOD JOB. thnx.
I've never been there but I love the Czech people. My limited experiences with them have been great and your country's stance on self-defense and making badass guns always seemed good to me.
It was a lovely country with lovely people even in 1962, when I was there. The Russian and Czech communist operatives were not lovely, though.
I’ve had a love for the Czech Republic since I was a kid (1000 years ago, plus or minus....) it’s on my bucket list to go. The Czech people I’ve met have been tremendous ambassadors for the country. Wonderful people.
Nice review thank you.
Great video, one of the best about CZ-75b. Straight to the points and pros & cons. Very informative. Google knows I bought a CZ-75B SP-O1 recently.
I say always go with a light and/or laser. Technology with LEDs and lasers are sooooo good nowadays, like why not. Batteries hold for a decent amount of time. Tons of choices out there now.
This is the single best video I've seen comparing these handguns. Thank you for the heightened detail. That was badass. The difference between the 75D's and PCR was super fucking helpful. Rock on.
appreciate that!
@@b0men I actually found a PCR and a 75 compact by me in the same store. I picked the compact with safety based on this info. Off to shoot all the ammo. Thank you.
@@Powerhauz haha you better buy a lottery ticket! Let us know what you think of it
Great video! I like them all! I saw a black 97B with black aluminum grips the other day. What a beauty!
Very,very informative.good video man,thanks😁
Nice presentation. I saw a PCR in my local gun shop a week ago. I went out of town for a week and thought about it. Came back and walked back in and it was still there. I bought it. I was lucky.
I already own a 75b with many CGW upgrades and it is a smooth accurate shooter! I plan to leave my PCR more stock as it’ll be a CCW only.
yeah you better buy a lottery ticket haha
One of the best overviews I've ever seen.
You know your shit when it comes to CZ pistols and you do it with humor. You just got a subscriber.
Excellent review, THANK YOU 👏👍
I purchased a cz p07 two weeks ago and ordered a cz Shadow 2 black and blue. Pick it up 08/16/19. I'm pumped.
Thanks! Hilarious. Refreshing. Helpful. I subscribed.
Totally loved those little, nearly sub-liminal image projections throughout.
Finally a straight shooter of a video. Wish more content creators made videos like this
Appreciate it!
Just picked up my first CZ to, a 75D Compact. Awesome pistol!
Nice choice man!
Great video! Very thorough. Thank you very much.
No problem!
Thanks so much for this video. I was confused about some of the models and now I am less confused and pretty much know the next CZ I want.
Glad it helped! It's definitely confusing. What CZ did you decide on?
@@b0men have 97B & P10C - want SP01 tactical or the shadow. Maybe like you said, I'll just save up and get the shadow.
I love it. Great video and funny pictures. Us CZ lovers are some real smart fellers.
You nailed it. Great job!
Awesome review man! I can relate to having troubles finding a particular cz that I want. I've got a deposit down at my local shop for a pcr as soon as it comes in!
that was exactly what I was looking for, thanks for the video.
Greetings from switzerland
Thank you sir!
Good video. There are so many different variations.
I love the CZ 75 single action only.
Some come with night sights.
But very hard to find.
The PCR is my first CZ pistol, I wanted a SIG but CZ are more affordable. I have three CZ pistols now and love them all because they make me a better shooter.
Just picked up my PCR from Oakhill and my ffl yesterday. Awesome gun right out of the box for me. Very pleased with the quality and ergonomics.
You'll love it!
Great video. A year ago I picked up my first CZ. A CZ75D Compact with a steel frame and no rail. An amazing shooter.
Thanks Jim! They are fantastic guns. I highly recommend installing some Cajun Gun Works parts in yours. Then it will REALLY sing!

I'm thinking of getting the cz75d I really want a cz75b tho
Great Video. Found my 75-BD at my local gun shop. It was being used a loaner that hardly anyone ever picked up. The owner let it go sub $400... LOVE IT.
< $400 for a 75BD is a nice find!
Explaining the differences between the compacts is always a challenge. Well done. Best video explanation I’ve seen.
Thank you sir! Appreciate it. Which one did you go with?
@@b0men I have a Shadow 2, SP01 Tactical and a P07. I carry both of the latter two.
Nice! All great blasters. @@InSightFreedom
@@b0men #czlife
awesome explanation of the differences!
I bought the display model CZ 75b at Scheels the other day... Sales guy was shocked I specifically asked for that, then talked for 30 minutes about how great it is and that other people just don't realize it... Best gun I've ever shot... Had to have it as my first own...
A great video, thanks for the explanation ☺️
I have the CZ 75 B full size & the original all steel CZ 75 B compact, which I carry a lot. One thing no one ever mentions about the B's with the safety, which only works in the cocked & locked position, which unlike my 1911's I don't like to carry the CZ that way. But what's never mentioned is that they are safe to carry in the 1/2 cocked position, which takes up a ton of the double single action weight off of the trigger. Plus what I like about carrying mine in 1/2 cock is there is a small amount of take up till you hit the wall, then a nice straight pull for a much crisper first shot, much easier to stage without actually pulling the trigger,..then the single action pull is wonderful after that. The curved trigger on the originals too are just way better felling than most triggers on say a Glock Block. Love my CZ'S, might be the best kept secret out there for folks that don't study or participate in shooting. CZ'S flat out rock, might have to get a third one after the Civil War is over. We win by the way.
Totally man. The 1/2 cocked position is awesome. I thought about doing another CZ project too but now is just too crazy to be buying anything.
you have a real good way of explaining and just talking in general, i hit the subscribe button so that i will be around to hear you flap your gums.
I went from a makarov, to a cz83 in mak, to an old glock 17. Sold all 3 and bought a cz75 sp-01. Awesome weapon. Nice video, great job.
thank you sir!
Very informative. Thank you.
The CZ 75 spawned one of the most incredible line of pistols _ever,_ I bought a P10F a couple years ago and loved it (still love it) so I took a chance and went for something more expensive from CZ, my guy at my favorite gunstore talked me into buying an SP-01 Competition, which is a hand-fit CZ Customs SP-01 manual safety with special attention to the trigger and springs. I loved it immediately, but then started looking at all the things people were doing to improve their SP-01's for competition, and eventually got pretty nit-picky lol. At this point, I've got close to $1500 worth of upgrades into it, it shoots as well as any Shadow 2, TSO, TS2, or any of the other higher end CZ Customs line, with a 1.8lb trigger which has only .050" thousandths of travel (.033" take-up to the wall, less than .002" creep, and .017" over-travel) making it a speed demon in the hands of even the most mediocre shooter like me😂. At first I converted it to SAO and replaced almost all the internals with CGW parts, then I got into the weeds and precision mirror polished _everything_ that moves (including all the CGW parts, along with a slight trim to the hammer hook height), I removed the firing pin block -because screw that huge reset- by cutting the leg off the lifter arm and removed the spring and plunger. Later I added a Shield RMS red dot on a dovetail mount, I replaced the barrel with a CGW fluted and threaded barrel with a TTS compensator on it, I installed a DPM Systems 3-stage recoil buffer mainspring with a CZ frame buffer pad, I replaced the grip with short grips to install a CZC flared magwell, and then finally installed a Cross Armory thumb rest/gas pedal with a nice big custom molded thumb rest (I had a tablesaw accident, it's the only way I can properly maintain grip😢). I suppose if I had actually known how much I would throw into this pistol I probably would have just saved some more and got a CZ Czechmate, but hindsight is 20/20 as they say. Either way I adore this pistol, it's my best shooter by leaps and bounds. CZ rocks!
Great video short and informative
I was confused, so I bought two!
They also made a 75D compact with a steel frame AND a decocker. It also has a lanyard ring on the left bottom grip.
You are funny with those inserts 🤣 ! Thank you, for great 👍 info!!
Great review! I own the PCR but now I gotta have a SHADOW!
Pretty excited about my pcr on the way. Neat pistols
The beginning was on point 👌. So. Many. Variants.
CZ's are just awesome. Get one if your a gun guy. If you don't like it you'll sell it no problem. Chances are you'll end up with a bunch more. They used to be an absolutely silly value. Nearly free for what you get. Still a great deal. For people new to shooting, you'll likely get introduced to all the plastic guns first. Not a bad thing, but you should experience a hammer fired gun made of metal with a nice trigger. A true pleasure and something you feel happy to own for a long time. Author here makes a great point. The gun store will likely give you a blank stare if you ask about a CZ. Find a shop that sells them or just mail to your FFL. 90% of the guys at the gun counter belong at the cellphone store.
This is all very true
brother your videos and content are excellent i enjoy all your stuff!
Thank you sir! Really appreciate it.
Carried a CZ75BD as an EDC in South Africa for many years, never let me down.
Ha funny you mention it, I called up my local gun shop when I was first looking to CZ and they had only one CZ 75 PCR they had ordered. I picked it up that day. I should've gotten a lottery ticket.
Yeah you lucked out man
I've got the PCR and love it!!! What are the grips on your PCR?
Thanks for the info!
This was helpful. Thanks
Excellent, straight forward video. I am picking up my PCR from my FFL in two days. Can't wait! I'm pretty sure, BTW, the "BD" stands for firing pin Block/Decocker. Really dig your sense of humor, too. Sub'd.
Thank you sir!
Just bought a CZ Shadow 2. Hands down best gun I’ve ever shot
I'm rocking a p10c, it's so accurate and soft; not even thinking about any other pistol
I have that exact PCR, ootb it was really great, very accurate, but you're right the triggers were a little stiff. Once I get it back from Cajun Gun Works I'm looking forward to it being much smoother.
Great Info. Thanks!!
Great review, and also funny. :)
My gun shop stocks a good amount of CZs and had the PCRs in stock along with the Rami bd. I now am the proud owner of a PCR
Which one is better for ccw
I love all my cz pistols never had a problem with any of them, they are made of very high quality.
Walked into a gun shop a week ago. Shelves we're mostly empty, they had maybe 7 different guns total. Happened to have the PCR on display, I bought it. Now I'm omw to get my lotto ticket
Cool video. I have the P-01 Omega with threaded barrel that you quickly had a picture pop up of.
This was a damn good review
great video thanks for the info
Great video. Thanks 👍
Great video straight to the point no BS thank you
Thank you sir!
Best review I’ve ever watched, hands down.
Thanks man really appreciate it
CZ 75 B Buy it.never mind the rest.it's that clear. Awesome weapon. It will never let you down.
What a breath of fresh air review. Just the facts as you see them.
Thank you!
Just bought my first two CZs. P-01 Omega that came into my local shop and then had them order my Shadow 2 that same day. I'm hooked and not looking back. I am however going to take some time and get used to the S2 before it becomes my dedicated USPSA production gun.
