Just Picked Up My SP-01...

Those tough Ruger revolvers are definitely meant to be shot, blast away, carry it, fingerbang it...etc

Something about people bringing up Ruger in a CZ thread is cracking me up!

But back on track, don't you dare sentence that CZ to a life in prison as a safe queen! Shoot it, enjoy it, and you will end up making it your EDC or your nightstand gun. I've got a Phantom with a TLR-1s by the bed and a CZ Rami as my EDC. They are beat up and worn, but they work every time.

the picture says phantom - not tactical

The SP-01 Phantom only existed as a tactical from what I recall. Tactical in CZ nomenclature means decocker. The Phantom has a decocker.

The SP-01 Tactical is a metal framed decocker. The SP-01 Phantom is the polymer framed decocker.

Yes, but the Phantom only exists in one variant. It is an anomaly in the CZ line. My point was that any decocker model sans the Omega versions which you can swap from decocker to da/sa are known as tactical versions in the CZ circles.

The SP-01 and SP-01 tactical are all full metal. The Phantom was always only a decocker poly framed railed full size CZ gun before it was retired in 2012.

I have never heard of the de-cocker models referred to as "tactical". They are generally referred to as "BD" models. Rami BD, CZ 75 BD, CZ 97BD as indicated on CZ's website: http://cz-usa.com/products/by-category/handguns/

At any rate, I was unaware that CZ discontinued the Phantom. It is by far my favorite handgun and I'm glad that it didn't sell when I posted it up on here last year. I guess they replaced it with the P-09.

Pretty sure he is talking about a CZ.

Ooooooooh, the CZ-75! i saw SP and 01 and instantly thought of the ruger revolver!

Shoot it anyway.

Yea, it's kind of sad the Phantom was discontinued since the only other full size polymer is the P-09, but that uses an Omega trigger which isn't bad, just not as good as a standard da/sa.

Woops !! I saw SP -01 and thought Ruger to. Lol

CZs are addicting...

Mine is only the Tactical model though but wow. Everything just fits perfect and the weight is amazing.

It is the Tactical. It went straight into the safe when i got home from work and had chores to do so i just used Google Images for the Ruger guys.
