About This Firearm
The CZ P-07 is the only compact 9mm shipping with both a decocker and a manual safety in the box. The Omega trigger system lets owners swap between configurations in about ten minutes using included parts. No other polymer compact offers that choice. The DA/SA action fires a heavy double-action first shot, then drops to a 4.2 lb single-action pull for everything after. That SA pull is lighter than most factory striker triggers, which typically run 5-6 lbs.
At 27.7 oz, the P-07 is heavier than most polymer compacts. That weight comes from the hammer-fired internals and the cold hammer-forged barrel with 6 grooves. The trade-off is real: carrying 27.7 oz all day is noticeably different from carrying a 23 oz striker gun. But the extra mass absorbs recoil, and owners consistently report the P-07 shoots flatter than lighter alternatives during extended range sessions. The 15+1 capacity matches the Walther PDP Compact and HK VP9, so you give up nothing in rounds carried.
If you have never run a DA/SA trigger, expect a learning curve. The double-action first pull runs 10-12 lbs. Transition training between the heavy first pull and the light follow-ups takes deliberate practice. Once that transition becomes automatic, the 4.2 lb SA pull rewards the effort with accuracy that striker guns struggle to match from the factory.

Strengths & Limitations
- The 4.2 lb single-action trigger is lighter than most factory striker guns, which typically run 5-6 lbs. That 1+ lb difference is easy to feel during accuracy-focused shooting.
- Omega system lets owners swap between decocker and manual safety configurations using included parts. No other compact 9mm ships with both options in the box.
- At 27.7 oz, the heavier frame absorbs recoil better than 23 oz polymer striker compacts. Reviewers note the P-07 tracks noticeably flatter during rapid strings.
- The 27.7 oz weight is 4 oz heavier than the Walther PDP Compact. That gap is noticeable during all-day concealed carry, especially in warm weather with lighter cover garments.
- No optic mounting option on this model. The HK VP9 ships optic-ready in its OR variant while the P-07 has no factory solution for red dot mounting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I run the decocker or the manual safety?
The gun ships with both parts, so you choose which to install. Most defensive shooters run the decocker because it is faster to deploy. Pull through the heavy DA first shot without disengaging anything. The manual safety adds a step to the draw but gives a visible safety lever. You can switch between them whenever you want, so start with the decocker and change later if you prefer it.
Does the P-07 take the same magazines as other CZ models?
No. The P-07 uses its own magazines that will not fit the CZ 75, SP-01, or P-01. The P-07 and P-09 share magazines though, so P-09 mags work as a higher-capacity option. The P-09's 19-round magazines fit the P-07 with some baseplate overhang below the grip.
How does the DA/SA trigger compare to a striker trigger for a new shooter?
The double-action pull weighs 10-12 lbs versus 5-6 lbs on most striker guns. It is a deliberate pull but manageable. After that first shot, the 4.2 lb SA pull is lighter than most factory strikers. The learning curve is real but not steep. Training the DA-to-SA transition takes a few hundred rounds of deliberate practice before it becomes automatic.
