Yeah, I'm going to get a quality, model specific IWB holster with a slide guard for it to give it a go. It's not really any thicker than my G26, just bigger and HEAVY. I've got a quality belt, and I'm built to be able to carry full size so why not try? The SP-01 is just so damn shootable, if I ever need a gun, that would be the one I would want to have on me.

Nurse, NURSE!! It happened again!
That's right.
Not having learnt from my first near infidelity, I went back for more.
This time I decided to take the time to handle two guns that caught my eye as I bought gun care liquids of various types: The Steyr S-A1 Compact in 9mm, and a very solid feeling CZ 2075 Rami B.
The Steyr, despite being a near favourite when I was first looking for a pistol, now feels a little underwhelming: similar grip angling to the G19 I had and a trigger reset that was very close to the break, but just too faint, meaning it was very easy to go past it even in a simple shop environment.
The Rami was a different story: What a great little pistol! Good size, but with weight a more accessible trigger than my SP. A lighter trigger pull too. Less camming of the hammer, a good reset and with less subsequent take-up to reach a nice crisp break. As with the other CZs I've held, a nice natural point of aim too. Feels a bit chunky got IWB, but then it is probably slimmer than a .38 at the cylinder.
The controls are more low-profile than the SP, for obvious reasons, as is the beaver-tail, all of which would make it more comfortable than the SP-01, but then a cordless drill, with a bit spinning, would be more comfortable IWB than the SP-01.
I'd personally prefer the BD version that also comes with tritiums as standard but as a first impression, it scored really well, and it can take full-size CZ75 variant mags.
Better be careful around the SP-01: there's nothing more dangerous than sibling rivalry!

I feel/share your pain Pond, I mean Mr. James Pond.
So much that I don't even pay attention to my own thing. All I did is added a new grip to my 226, so I don't have to trow it away. Put them next to each other just to see how they get along. Life is kind of difficult.
I think I go make some good Hungarian sausage......

I too will surely catch an earful upon my return home from my CZ's (the CZ 100 is giving me the Evil Eye as I type this), as I've three new adoptions coming into my home for wayward, lost pistols. Strangely enough, all are named "HK".
I just don't yet know how I'm going to explain to the RAMI BD that he's been adopted by a loving family in Minnesota, and that several families have been looking for a well-behaved, disciplined P-07 with superb manners. How to do this? They've been such great children!
