CZ P01 Sight setup: Best CZ75 Defensive Sights EVER?

[@supertruckertom]

This will be going on my Stainless P-01. Thanks for the part numbers.

[@jimtravis8829]

SuperTruckerTom what was part #?

[@williamrandolph1566]

I buy practically ALL of my sights for various platforms and have gotten excellent customer service from them in every single case.

[@MrWilfork75]

"3 dot sights are not optimal for shooting" That is your opinion. When it comes to sights it's all personal preference.

[@workthetrigger]

Talk to any instructor about sight usage, and they will not talk about lining up 3 dots. It's not preference, it's proper usage.

[@paunchouspilot6757]

Well, after a lengthy search as many of you have done, I bought this setup. Hopefully it's worth the $. CZ custom told me the 10701 was out of stock and refunded my $ . Was considering CZ custom 10703 tactical rear no dot. Can't tell if the notch is the same though. 11.06.19 CZ custom said the 10703 rear sight is same as 10701 but no tritium dot.

[@cameronbillings7312]

Any update on how your set up turned out?

[@IRISHMAN2234]

Hey, quick question.. is the front sight a 5.5mm? Just curious. Wanting a different rear sight that needs a 5.5mm and this one you put in the description it might be it!

[@workthetrigger]

Yep, most CZ stock front sights are 5.5mm

[@Mrandher83]

It’s just the Meprolight tru dot front sight. You can get them from many places. That’s what comes on the SPO1 tactical. The ones Cz custom sells are the very small trijicon bright and tough.

[@jasonc2733]

Do you like it?

[@workthetrigger]

The tiny ones from CZ custom are frustratingly small.

[@jasonc2733]

I'll have to put my hands on the Meprolight sight and see how big it is.

[@jimtravis8829]

Love the Meprolights that came on my Spo1 but my P01 came with Big Dots and it shoots low.

[@workthetrigger]

Ditch the big dots. I'm just not a fan of those. Meprolight front, cz custom rear, you're set.

Thanks for the heads up about Night Fusion. Also would those sights that you have on your P01 work on my PCR ?

I dont think so, pretty sure the PCR rear is different.

OK. Thanks for the information bro.

Night fission is NOT making sights for the CZ75 line. Why? Idk. Cause they're idiots. They only make them for the CZ p10c line

[@-o-The-Duke-o-]

Thank you for this video. Sight is on order!

[@DIYDad1]

Looks like I’ll be going to cz custom for my new p01, I really like this sight setup! Are you still running it like this, or have you made any changes? I have the Dawson’s on my Walther and it’s great but no tritium for low light and that sort of burned me in a low light shoot. As much as I LOVE fiber optic…is the txf pros just a little too wide in the front?

[@workthetrigger]

I actually swapped to night fision for the front sight. I have a video on modifying it to run, and it turned out great. Then I put a dot on it 🤣🤣

Sweet p01. My preferred set up on my edcs are the hackathorns from ameriglo. Of course they don’t make one for a cz. The orange is where it’s at.

[@Patrick.Weightman]

Is your rear sight the "short" version? I got the regular "tactical" version and it sweeps back so far _past_ the slide it leaves a major gap underneath and looks absurdly goofy - but these ones are PERFECT I figured "short" meant not as tall but I'm starting to think it meant length too

[@workthetrigger]

I am really not 100% sure. It's been so long, I don't think those were both options when I did this setup. Sorry

[@Patrick.Weightman]

@@workthetrigger It's alright, I'm gonna assume so because the one I bought is the one you said you didn't care for

[@Patrick.Weightman]

@@workthetrigger Well in case you were curious the answer is both! The "tactical" requires a 6.5mm sight and is 1/4in longer than the "short" as well

Not trolling and being honest. I have idot pros on my G19 and love them . I shoot every week. I bought these for my P01 from this video. Im in the process of changing to something else after 2 range sessions. The rear dot is too bright and close to the gap to differentiate the front from the rear sight. For slow fire where you can find the front with time it’s great. For quick shots it’s really bad. I’m hitting all over because I can’t find the front sight quickly. They’re also not serrated so you get glare. I’ve had a few others try my pistol in case it’s me, they had the same problem. I do not recommend this setup. The idot pro rear tritium dot is low enough to see black above it. Not with these, that’s the flaw. I shot better with the factory sites.

Your sight has serrations for anti-glare correct? That part # shows a plain flat sight w/o serrations. Emailed CZ about it and they confirmed just a plain flat sight.

[@orionfixr7713]

Good on you !! These companies are in business for one thing. That's to take your money. The one thing we can do to show our displeasure with how they do business is to withhold our funds. Good job and also a great work around on the sights. KZbin will also learn a lesson when we find a work around to replace them too. Peace.

[@workthetrigger]

Yeah, it's quite frustrating with the web links. in some videos i'll post the links in the video, but these specific links ended up being so long and tedious with nonsense letters and numbers i figured it'd just be best to have people search for them... but i highly suggest they do. i friggin love this setup!

[@workthetrigger]

Yeah, I'm really enjoying the setup. Had it to the range a couple times now and it's extremely quick with a really good sight picture... almost better than the Dawsons on the SP01. You were right about them, that front blade is almost too thin.

[@glenncoles3141]

Quick question. I'm looking at the same set up and wondering why you chose the 10701 over the 10704 with more rounded edges? Seems the 10704 would be slightly better for concealed carry and are a little lower profile.

[@workthetrigger]

I like a full ledge on top of my sights for an easier sight picture. Not as worried about "snagging" when drawing, as with this gun, if something's gonna snag, it's probably going to be the grippy Coolhand grips or the hammer.

[@ert-7112]

[@azriel169]

Hey. Did you notice that the front sight isn’t level with the rear two dot sights ? In order to shoot accurate and line up all three dots The top of the front site needs to be a little bit above the rear saint having all three dots in a line. Is that normal or am I missing something.

[@workthetrigger]

The centers of the dots are lined up on mine. Also, dont use the dots to shoot. It's a misconception in the firearms industry that you use dots to line anything up, unless it's night sights in the dark where you cant see the outlines. use the sight profile, Equal Height, Equal Light. Line up the profile of the front blade in the notch of the back, level off the top, and center the blade in the front so you have equal amounts of space on either side. but if you already knew that, but your dots dont line up, i'm not sure. Mine lined up fine. i've shot it both ways and it's the same POA/POI.

[@avjeeper7006]

I found the front sight at CZ USA. The name of the rear sight, is it: "CZC Trijicon® Tritium Rear Sight Tactical 1 DOT Fits Low Mount Cut 0.365"? Or is it the one with "short" in the description name? Update: I received the front sight today. It does not have the slot for the roll pin.

You hyped those new sights sooo much.. Lol now you're out. Wonder many pre orders you're responsible for?

[@workthetrigger]

Because when they bring them out they will be a good aftermarket sight, but their lack of communication has been absolutely insane. Not something i could foresee, as their initial communication was positive and prompt. But to wait, and then need to modify them in hopes that they'd fit the P01 (as my goal was to find the best sights for the 75 series, which the NF sights are not coming out for), i think the pairing i've found works better for the 75s. IF they end up shipping these sights by the end of the month, i still suggest looking into them if you're looking for something for the P10 or P07/09, but it just wasn't worth it just to possibly get the same results i got with what i used. Plus, if it kept anyone from purchasing TFX Pros, i'd do it all over again. lol

[@bobvagene]

Work lol.. I definitely understand. That's why I didn't bother pre ordering them. Figured I'd wait to see what happened. I still have have the tfx pro's on my edc p01.. I want to just go with a stock set of sp01 night sights but I haven't got around to it. My interests have taken a detour into building aks and my cz funds are depleted.

[@workthetrigger]

aint it a b***h when toy funds have to be split! lol. i'd really still like to try a set of NF sights... but another company got me something pretty cool for you guys, and i acturally already have these on the bench, so this one i KNOW people can get. lol

[@jimmymassie8420]

I ordered both these sights after watching this video. The rear tritium vial is now surrounded by a white ring. Same part number you listed. So they must have changed it.

[@MikeM4729]

I bought these based on this video. Not a fan. The sights sit very low. They’re hard to pick out. The rear tritium is bright. During a quick shot it’s hard to tell when the front comes into view because of the rear brightness. I wound up blacking out the rear with craft paint. I regret buying these.

[@avjeeper7006]

Aren't the stock sights very low? How much height difference is there by comparison?

[@workthetrigger]

Zero. These are the same height as stock sights. Heck, the front sight is stock, just from a different 75 series

[@MikeM4729]

The tritium in the rear is centered high in the notch and bright. The front is the same color and low. It blends into the high, centered bright rear. There’s no contrast. Raise the pistol quickly and you play a game of is that the front sight? until you raise the front too high for proper aiming and see it. Then settle the sights down. I find I shoot low on a quick shot because I think I’m seeing the front but I’m not. I have IDot Pros with the same setup and love them. That’s why I bought these. The difference with the IDot is they’re taller and the rear tritium is lower in the center and not as bright.

[@Advanceauto999]

I think while shooting on a target with white back ground it might be difficult to sight.

[@workthetrigger]

It's really not. The dot is big enough to be easily seen, but small enough that there's plenty of post around it. But if you want a different color, check out my video on night fision sights on the cz75
