Which is your favorite and why. I’ve been putting these off too long and would like to give them a try. I’m not sure yet if I’d be carrying one, G19 is my current favorite for that role...so for now I’m just looking at them in general terms. Also, if you swapped out sights, what are you using?
I’ve owned both and the P07 was obviously the preferred carry between the two as The grip on the P09 is as big the Florida panhandle. I kept both stock and didn’t flip the sights. They both are good performers but no better than their competitors. The big downside for me was the prices of their mags. I was actually getting better deals on HK P30 mags at the time so whoa. I found I was better with the Hk’s & M&P Compacts so the Cz’s went to fund other ventures...

I have both. Like the P-07 better since it's easier to conceal. Never have any problem. Replaced my Sig P239 for EDC on occasion due to mag capacity. Never changed the sights as they were spot on. Mine is the grey threaded barrel. Bought a second Grey and have one in black also. Accurate and reliable as all CZs.

To echo the above the only difference is the ability to carry the 07 more concealed. Of course, if its just a range gun the 09 easily wins with it's larger grip and 19+1 capacity! Sights are factory as well...
The P07 due to its size and the P09 for capacity and slight edge in accuracy at least for me. I would assume due to the longer sight length.
My 09 has the factory suppressor sights which will stay and 07 now has a swapped fiber optic front with stock rear.
Maybe look at the P09 first due to the fact you already have the Glock. The P07 is similar G19ish in size.
As stated in other threads triggers are not great, limited sights, holsters selection. But I think they are great guns for the money. Do you have any other DA/SA pistols ?

They pivot at the back and sweep down from the front, yes, a little like a 1911 safety, but they spring back up after the hammer de-cocks. Parts are also included with the gun to make it a manual safety.

At one time, I owned both at the same time. I think the CZ PO7 was my favorite as I could easily conceal like a G19, low recoil, fun to shoot. The P09 was same in many ways, just not so easy to conceal but a great home defense day.
