P-01. CZ ergonomics and such are very hard to beat.

Unless you are a Glock grip angle fan, in which case the G19 may be preferable . . .
 
glock has such a rep for reliability, but the CZ does fit and feel a little better in my hand. Maybe I otta get 'em both. Or go with the Kahr or XD...so many guns so little money!!
 
I love the CZ, but there is a lot to be said for the reduced weight, increased capacity, readily available parts and consistant trigger pull from beginning to end on the Glock.

We can talk guns for weeks, and keep starting threads about This Gun Verses That Gun. Bottom line is, buy what feels good in your hand! And In the Cal. you want. What you think is a good value for the money. Will the gun you buy, be a desent investment? Can you re-coop any buy money if you totaly HATE it after buying it ETC. (AKA not a BIG Looser). Most Kimbers SELL REAL GOOD USED! XD's DON'T! Glocks sell CHEAP when Used! Colt's have a real GOOD Used Resale Market, Springers are only OK! That kind of thing!

Go to a Large Gun retailer, or a LARGE Local Gun Show, handle a half dozen of your top picks. ASK QUESTIONS THERE! Then cut the field of choices to 2-3 and look up on the net EVERYTHING you can find about those models. Check to see if the Company/Manf. stands behind thier products. If you have to, Call the Manf. AND ASK QUESTIONS There! Find out is Factory Parts are easy to get, find out about add on or if aftermarket stuff can be Found (extra Mag.'s? maybe grips, sights, ECT?) THEN ASK QUESTIONS about your now norrowed down 1-2 favorites on 2-3 forums, ask about known problems and THEN make a choice.
 
Both guns point really well But I am partial to the Glock 19 as I carry a 22 on duty and score really well at our twice a year quals ( never under 245 out of 250). Can't beat them IMHO
 
One thing I noticed about the Glock is that the reset of the trigger is shorter than most firearms I have used. Double tapping is easier. I tried it with my BHP and the group was larger.

+1 on the Glock being lighter and spares being readily available. It is the first pistol that I had that I was able to disassemble completely without going to a gunsmith.
 
I find CZ's are easier to shoot and Glocks are easier to get a holster for. Both of the models you have mentioned are on my to buy list.
 
I chose the Cz-PO1 since it fits my hand well, shoots well with it, and I can use reloads all the time. I am also more at ease with the DA trigger and decocker function sort of giving me peace of mind versus the Glock's safe action trigger. I used to be a Glock holder though.
 
Glock 19 vs CZ P01

I've owned both. I don't like the Glock trigger and grip angle. CZ pistols fit me like a glove. So it easy for me, CZ all the way.

However, you should shoot them both to see which one fits you best.

Best regards.
 
I would go with the P-01 (and maybe get the glock later). But, if you are interested in it for a carry piece, then you may want to look at the PCR. Same gun sans the rail (for a thinner overall profile).
 
We own both...my wife loves her CZ, and I'm partial to the Glock :p
 
There is not much to add to S&W10mm's post but of your particular choices the Kahr is the least reliable and the most expensive. It might be prettier but you don't seem concerned about its smaller size so it is a choice between P-01 and G19. Both are exceptionally reliable. The bore line of the G19 is a little lower so rapid fire will be a little better if you can learn the trigger. Aimed fire with the single action P-01 sould be more precise but you need to be able to adapt to the double action first shot and then single action for SD. This probably mean that you get back on target faster with the G19 but might loose that time again to the slower trigger action. The CZ grip shape is very nice but there are projecting controls which make it harder to carry. If you want it for SD then shooting lots of accurate shots quickly, probably at close range, is very important.

So, think about how you react to the differences but above all find which fits your hand best.

Both the P-01 and the G 19 are medium sized duty type pistols.

The Kahr is a compact concealed carry type pistol.

For shooting, the CZ and the Glock are better. For concealed carry the Kahr, which is considerably flatter. I've got a S&W Sigma 9VE in a similar size to the CZ and Glock, my wife annexed it. I did get my SP-101 .22 Revolver back. :D

Who always needs more practice.
 
G19 or CZ75 P01

I owned/shot the G19 for almost two years, I couldn't shoot it well, others had no problems with it. I got a P01 and never looked back, but still held on to the G19. Recently I bought a CZ75BD, a CZ75 Kadet 22 adapter, and a CZ75B in satin finish and traded in the G19.

I believe that the CZ75 handguns are incredible values. They are solid, well-built, accurate guns. Beware of CZitis!

Both. Really. I own both, and I love both. Right now, I'm more on a Glock swing, but I was really into my CZ's for a while. The pendulum will prolly swing back when I get my SP-01 back from Matt Mink, but my G17 and G19 are freakin' awesome guns.

Ditto the Kadet kit. Have one for my 75b Tactical, and it's very well made and accurate.
 
IMO Glock's 9mm line up is their shining glory...26, 19, 17 and 34 are really nice guns. For me, the 19 is the nicest in the line up...so imho, go w/ the 19 :D
