| Is the trigger on the BD worse than the B? I want a CZ-75, mainly for target shooting but the decocker sounded like a nifty feature for occasional carry. |

if you want it for target hooting I suggest forget both and get an SA trigger. Plus the SA trigger looks cooler too  Nah I want to be able to carry it hammer down without having to cock the hammer when I draw it. Once again, is there any difference between the B and BD trigger? |

As far as the trigger question, I agree, no difference really. But personally I recommend going with a standard 75B over the decocker version. You can still manually decock the 75B, so there's really not much you can do with a 75BD that you can't do with a 75B. And if you're target shooting a lot, you might like the ability to put the pistol on safe with hammer back, rather than decocking and firing DA next shot. I also don't like the position of the decocker, but that's because I shoot with my firing hand thumb resting on the safety, just like I would with a 1911. If occasional carry is the only thought driving you towards the decocker, just consider it only takes a moment to manually decock a 75B. |

I have the BD.
I don't think there's all that much difference in the trigger performance from the factory, but the BD is more difficult/expensive to do a trigger job on. The BD is much more difficult to strip down at the gunsmithing level. I prefer decocker-only handguns. At the moment of truth i don't have a safety in my way. I own decocker-only Sigs a 75BD and a Beretta 92G. The only pistol I own that has a safety is my BHP. Sig knew what they were doing when they went with decocker-only designs. |

I own a CZ75b and CZ75bd, and a CZ75 P01. I prefer to carry the decocker models. I shoot the 75b in IDPA, it is really easy to safely decock the 75b, though it does take two hands. I believe you will be happy with either of the models as they will do what you required in your post. I do prefer to carry the decocker models though. Using the decocker in a stressful (non-competition) situation would be safer/easier for me than manually lowering the hammer. Good luck with your decision.

Good luck with your decision. best regards, Luis Leon In reference to the part in red, I agree, that lowering the hammer in a stressful situation would be much simpler with a decocker. However, if you're carrying with the hammer down and you find yourself with the hammer back in a self defense situation, chances are that means you've already fired at least one round. When it's time to stop shooting, I'm fine with flipping on the safe and leaving the hammer back. JMHO |
