The CZ 75 SP-01 is a full-size, all-steel evolution of the classic CZ 75 B. Developed specifically for military and law enforcement use (and currently serving with multiple security forces worldwide), it has also become a dominant force in the competition world. It takes the "Wonder Nine" formula and adds modern tactical necessities like an accessory rail and improved ergonomics.
Full-Length Accessory Rail: The most distinctive feature is the MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail on the dust cover. This provides extra weight at the muzzle, which, combined with the all-steel frame, makes the SP-01 one of the flatest-shooting 9mm pistols available.
Improved Ergonomics: Borrowing from the P-01, the SP-01 features an extended, "upswept" beavertail that allows the shooter to get a higher, more secure grip without fearing "hammer bite." It also includes checkering on the front and back straps for better traction.
High Capacity: The SP-01 usually ships with 18 or 19-round magazines (featuring an extended base pad), offering a significant fire-power advantage over the standard 16-round CZ 75 B.
Night Sights: Unlike the standard glow-in-the-dark sights on the 75 B, the SP-01 typically comes factory-equipped with tritium night sights for low-light engagements.
Robust Finish: The entire gun is finished in a corrosion-resistant black polycoat, designed to withstand the rigors of daily duty carry and harsh environments.
When looking at the SP-01, you must choose between the manual safety and the "Tactical" decocker:
