About This Firearm

The CZ P-07 is a compact polymer-framed double-action/single-action 9mm built for concealed carry and home defense. It has an MSRP of $489, and the parts to run it as a decocker pistol or as a cocked-and-locked pistol with a manual safety both come in the box.

Fifteen rounds sit behind a 3.75-inch barrel in a pistol 7.2 inches long, and three interchangeable backstraps set the grip size. The Omega trigger is CZ's simplified fire control for this family, and the company gives its single-action pull as a 3.3 to 5.5 lb range instead of a figure. The slide has no optic cut, and the frame is 1.46 inches across, which is wide for a 15-round compact.

If you're cross-shopping, the CZ P-09 C Nocturne is the hammer-fired compact CZ sells for a dot, 26.1 oz on a 3.7-inch barrel with the same 15 rounds, at an MSRP of $649. The CZ P-10 C undercuts the P-07 at an MSRP of $449 and is striker-fired, on a 4.02-inch barrel in a 1.26-inch frame, so it is longer in the barrel and narrower in the hand at the cost of the hammer and the swappable controls.

Best For

GOOD
Home Defense
The external hammer can be seen and felt, so a pistol that has sat in a drawer for a year can be checked without racking the slide. A long first pull is a deliberate press under stress.
GOOD
Concealed Carry
The grip is stippled polymer and the frame is 5.3 inches tall, short enough that the butt does not push a shirt out behind the hip.
GOOD
Range/Target
The barrel is cold hammer forged, and it and the slide both carry a black nitride finish, which is a hard surface for a pistol that gets shot and cleaned a lot.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths
  • Both the decocker and the manual safety levers are ambidextrous, so a left-handed shooter works them without buying parts.
  • The hammer has a safety notch and a firing pin block sits behind it, so a loaded pistol with the hammer down has two mechanical stops in the way.
  • Two magazines, three backstraps and the conversion parts are all in the box at this price.
Limitations
  • There is no optics-ready P-07 in CZ's line, so a dot means the P-09 Nocturne or a milled slide.
  • The first shot is double action and the rest single action, so the trigger changes under the finger and takes dry practice to shoot evenly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should the decocker or the manual safety be fitted?

It ships with the decocker, and the parts to convert it are in the box. The decocker drops the hammer on a loaded chamber for a long first pull; the safety lets the pistol ride hammer back with the lever up. Either can be swapped back later at the kitchen table.

What is the Omega trigger system?

CZ's name for the fire control in the P-07 and P-09. The user-swappable decocker and safety levers are part of that design, and the CZ 75 action it replaced in this size class had neither.

What is the rifling twist?

1 in 9.84, in a cold hammer forged barrel finished in black nitride like the slide.

Where is it made?

The Czech Republic, at CZ's Uhersky Brod plant.
