CZ 75 De-cocker or Not?
« on: January 10, 2012, 03:28:27 AM »
I am considering purchasing a 9mm CZ 75 pistol.  I am not sure about getting the model with the de-cocking feature.  None of my other pistols have this feature and work well enough.  What do you think?  Is the de-cocking feature worth having?

Rev -  I have a CZ75B and had the same dilemma when I first bought it; and it is one of the most accurate 9mm's I've ever owned.  I found that the "decocker" was just one more feature I would have to get "used" to in its operation. Using a decocker, for me, is not natural and would take a lot of practice to make it "instinctive".  If it's not a problem for you, it will be a great feature; as for me, I try to keep the safeties and operation of the various types of my "defense" firearms as similar as possible. My .02.

Thanks, Jager.  I have been thinking the same thing about the de-cocking feature.  I can't think of any important ned for it.

I owned Sigs and HKs before I bought my CZ 75B and missed the decocker at first. Now I don't miss it at all. De-cocking to half cock is very easy with the 75. Love the gun and the Kadet kit.

Have had my CZ75B about 10 yrs, and never found a need for a decocker on it. It is my everyday carry gun. Couple of LEO's (retired type) that I shoot with sold their smiths and bought 75's. so they could keep up with me on target shooting.

I have several autos with decockers but to tell the truth I like my 1911a and CZ 75 B that do not have them.  I do not have any problem lowering the hammer safely and it always bothers me that I am trusting some mechanical doda to keep the gun from firing when using a decocker.

I have a CZ85DB in 9mm luger and i never use the decocker.  The CZ75 in 9mm luger in polished stainless looks awesome, i want one too.
