The P-01 and SP-01 are pretty similar in regards to the rear of the frame.  The "P" is a touch shorter though, and has slightly less capacity in the magazine. 

This will be replacing an old Glock 19 that I've had for the last twenty-ish years, and I'm not really committed to either "size", as they're both smaller than my 1911s or 220.  I almost think I'd like the smaller length of of the P, but don't like the fact that it's decock only.  The CZ custom shop makes a special one that has a dual trigger/safety set up, but it uses a few of the plastic parts of the Duty series, and won't allow the installation of the "custom" trigger/hammer combo.
And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

There are gunsmiths out there that make some really nice trigger/hammer parts for the decocker models

Cool, thanks.  I still like the "safety" model better, as I like to carry in C&L.

That 1911/Hi-Power cocked and locked feature is nice. One of the things that made me like the CZ75 years ago.
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

Sounds like you want an SP.

Another CZ 'quirk' is a really long DA reach.

That guy also has a reach reduction kit that I may add to mine.

I'd disagree about the beaver tails being similar on the P and SP models.

The SP and SA models have a beavertail like a 1911.

The other CZ models have a flatter angle.

I agree. They do have a long DA trigger pull. Nothing you can't get over. That's why the cocked and lock feature is a plus.

At the price point they are all good choices IMO.

Another consideration is ammo.

CZ's have a very short leade to the rifling and some hp or fp ammo won't function correctly.

AH!  The rifling/ammo bit is news to me.  What sort of rounds have you had success with through your CZ?  Do you mostly run FMJ trough it?

Yes...

I run fmj or plated Berry's RN.

I don't carry, but the word is Speer GDHP work well as do several others including Federal Hydra Shock.

It's really an ogive/bullet shape thing.

The Czechs don't use HP ammo so almost all RN will chamber and function at Saami max.

Any HP without a sharp ogive should work too

I run 99% ball through my CZ75s. No issues. I am a fan of Hydra Shock in all calibers. My CZs are plinkers not carry guns but I have run Hydra Shocks and Cor-Bons through mine without issue.

CorBon rounds have a perfect bullet for guns that have problems feeding HP rounds.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Either The CorBon Pow'R'Ball (polymer tipped hollow point) or Glaser Safety Slug (polymer tipped frangible round)...

I carried the Pow'R'Ball in 9mm and .380 for a long time, and will go back once I get rid of these free Hornadys I got. Great, great little round.

It isn't always a feed problem.

Depending on bullet shape, sometimes they'll feed, but the pistol won't go into battery.

I've been eyeing a Husqvarna 3100 Crown Grade in my local shop.  It is a 30.06 in really quite nice condition for its age.  I'd love to take it home with me, but will just have to wait and see if the price drops a bit more.  Very nice classic rifle with a silky smooth (Mauser based) action.  I'm certain that it has many more hunts left in it if I can just convince the CFO that it needs to come to our house.  Each time I go and look at a new rifle in that price range, it just doesn't do it for me.  Sure, a $1-2k rifle would, but this thing just feels solid and is much cheaper.
