The CZ goes....plastic!...again. I personally have no problem with polymer framed pistols as, to date, my Walther P-99 has had yet to fail on me past break in where even my all metal P-01 has had one major failure putting it out of commission for the shooting day....but I digress

Here is the info that is posted thus far on their website with more to come. Hope this is not a double post.

The CZ P-07 Duty is the next generation of the CZ handgun family. The Duty features the ergonomics and accuracy of the CZ 75 with a totally new trigger system. The new Omega trigger system simplifies the CZ 75 trigger system, uses fewer parts and improves the trigger pull. In addition, it allows users to choose between using the handgun with a decocking lever(installed) or a manual safety (included) by a simple parts change. The polymer frame design of the Duty and a new sleek slide profile (fully machined from bar stock) reduce weight, making the P-07 Duty a great choice for concealed carry.

I do really like that they allow the user to chose between decocker and manual safety. Trigger guard is lacking IMO as well as frame design compared to the P-01. Hopefully the finished product will be a bit more aesthetically pleasing. And before someone says function is all that matters, its a CZ! Whats everyone elses thoughts?
