It followed me home, honest!

I went to the gun show today. My expectations were low since I didn't get there until 1 pm and it closed at 4. I was hoping to find a bigger range bag, and a small pistol rug for the Kahr. I figured any good buys on ammo would be gone. (Actually, I don't think there were any.) I saw a bag of 100 9mm. JHP no name for $34. When I can buy WWB for $19 it's hard to justify that for range ammo.
Anyway, one dealer had a CZ-SP-01 Tactical (decocker and night sights) that I have been researching for $589 and I went for it. That's about what I could buy it online for and I'd have to get it shipped to my FFL. I wanted an all steel gun for the range and these get great reviews. I'll let you know how it shoots when I get it to the range. It felt good in my hand and the single action trigger felt good. Double action was a long reach, but at the range, I don't think that's an issue.

Oh, I did buy a range bag and pistol rug too. No ammo.

Welcome to the CZ owners brotherhood

I joined 3 months ago getting a blued 75B - it's sillly
accurate 715 rds so far, 100% reliable - very simple to
field strip and put back together You're going to enjoy
your SP-01 FYI - CZ 9MMx19 barrel twist is 1 in 9.7" said
to handle the heavy 9MM bullets better than the usual slower
twist. Careful with that decocker model at the range no safety
to put on if you want to set it down to do something yah know?

The decocker brings the hammer almost all the way down. I guess they'd say half cocked, but it's beyond that. At that point it can be fired D/A but it's a long pull. (just like my H&K). It appears that the hammer is blocked from the firing pin so an accidental blow won't discharge the gun either. When I'm at the range I never lay a gun down unless it's pointed downrange anyway. I felt it was safer in this respect than the standard safety model. Am I wrong?

Guns and more,
Same feelings here about the safety vs decocker. Neither of my other pistols have safeties, and thats the way I prefer. I just bought a SP-01 Tactical yesterday myself, for $530. Several models of CZs come from the factory with the night sights. Its in the manual which models.
I fired 50rds through it this afternoon at 10yds and its a great shooter. Im definitely impressed.
