How do you get a round in the chamber without cocking the hammer? Do you have to lower the hammer manually and hope your thumb doesn't slip? Use the decocker? That's what I'd do. === Does the CZ have a decocker? |

The one I had did but when I bought it customized, the decocker was swapped for a traditional SAO safety. If you're afraid of totally missing a target with the DA, then spending extra money to remove the decocker so you can search for the SA safety makes great sense. |
