I'm eyeballing a CZ75B with a safety, not a decocker. I don't care for ambi safeties, but that's not a deal-breaker by itself. I also am of the firm opinion that having a consistent trigger pull is important, but I am hesitant to give up a potentially useful feature.

The question is this: what advantages does a CZ-75B SA have over a regular no-decocker CZ-75B? How many parts are interchangeable (will finding spares for the SA models be difficult, etc.)? Is the trigger significantly better (or any better after having a skilled gunsmith smooth the internals out)?

Primary advantage for CZ 75B: available in stainless steel.
Primary advantage for CZ 75B SA: single-action, adjustable (better?) trigger.
 
Thanks - missed that when I ran a search.

After further reading, it looks as though the best option is to get the stainless CZ75B, send it to a smith with the proper jigs for an action job (if needed), and just treat the thing as a SA if I want a consistant trigger pull.

CZ75B-SAs may not fit all holsters due to slightly changed frames and/or slides, ambi safeties may interfere with custom grips (e.g. crimson trace, etc.), and are allegedly more prone to hammer bite.

Danke.
 
I think everything you said is correct, except that SAs are prone to hammer bite; SAs (and SP-01s) have the extended beavertail which helps prevent bite.
