Anyone have a problem with CZ guns and the slide release location?

Dammit! You owe me another keyboard 'cause I just spit coffee all over mine.

Which would you choose for a first CZ? I think it'll just be a range gun.

If a range gun I’d go with the SP-01, it’s outstanding. The weight of the gun and the round are perfect for each other. It has great balance and points naturally – for me anyway. It’s a nice, big, heavy 9mm. And, again, for me accessing the slide stop is not an issue. As they say, however, YMMV.

I decided on the 75 B SA because of the single action. I want a SP-01 also but ill wait for the Shadow.

Problem?? What problem? Maybe I've been shooting CZs too long to notice...

I always diciplinise myself sling shot releasing the slide of any semiauto to standardise the procedure regardless of the desing features.

Bingo!

The only CZ I have ever had a problem with the slide release on is my 2075 Rami. The problem is not the placement but that there is not enough meat for my thumb to push down on. On my SP01s there is no problem.

I got the CZ 75B SA yesterday. Here is what im talking about. On my SIG, the slide stop is where the safety is on this pistol. Im taking it out on Sunday and will see how she shoots.

Slide Release...

JOHNSON... I have several CZs (w/ decocker) and like you, a Sig P229R... You CAN release the 'slide release' on the P229 very easily with the SAME HAND (ie. right thump while still holding the gun)... You really CAN'T do this 'comfortably' with a CZ (SP-01, 75B) its a L-O-N-G stretch... So for me, while holding the gun (w/ right hand) I release the slide-release with the LEFT THUMB... Different, but for me, absolutely NO PROBLEM!... If this is what you're referring to.
