Keeping pace with the growing trend of polymer-frame pistols, CZ's P-07 is a compact, 9 mm Luger double-action pistol with the fundamental mechanics inherited from its older CZ75 sibling. Rendered in black, the steel slide features a three-dot, drift-adjustable sighting system. The company’s Omega trigger is included with the P-07 and easily removes from the polymer frame without specialized tools. Due to the trigger's design, CZ offers a convertible bilateral decocker/safety system. Adding to the versatility of the P-07 are the included backstraps that are easily changed to tailor the gun’s fit to its user. The magazine release button coverts to right- or left-handed shooters as well.
