It was at Indy Trading Post. They had several CZs, they said they just started stocking them. I believe they had a 75, and two P07's, one 9mm and one 40. I think I may just pick up the 9mm tomorrow if it's still there.
I have one in 9mm. It is an excellent value. I wouldn't sell or trade it for more than I paid, so I'm stuck with it - even though I want to thin out the 9mm herd here.
I'd read up on the model at "The Original CZ Forum" before you buy one. They are an econo version of the CZ line. And while mine has been great, others have had a few problems.
Like: a slight bulge in the polymer frame (mine has developed this and it doesn't impact reliability, but if I were to know about the common fault beforehand, I might have not bought it).
Also, some magazines were not dropping freely through a certain run of serial numbers, I believe. My P07 ejects empty and full mags - it didn't at first, over time it became more consistent and reliable.
.40's seemed temperamental from things I've read - but I'd still want to try one.
Check those things out - maybe they'd let you shoot one at the range if you make clear you're intending to buy it.

Thanks for the heads up! I've been looking to get back into 9mm ever since my M&P 9c was stolen in 2008... I've gone from .45GAP to .380 for the last year and I'm ready to go back to 9mm. I went to 4 stores today and looked at a TON of 9mm, and after holding a M&P again I didn't feel like it fit my hand the way it used to. I loved the feel of the CZ even though in DA mode the trigger pull was pretty long for me. Overall I was pretty impressed and I definitely felt the most comfortable with it in my hand.
After spending the last couple of hours researching the p07 I'm becoming a little more hesitant to commit to it... It seems that there are quite a few issues that people have had and I want to know that my CC gun is reliable...
I personally went through the same delima when I was looking into getting another CZ. YES I said ANOTHER. I liked the P-07 but endend up getting the P-01. The P-01 is NATO approved and If you dont know what that means then you should look up the NATO trials for a pistol. Its pretty grueling and the P-01 not only passed but it did so with flying colors. It out preformed almost every other platform thats ever been tested by NATO including the Glock and the Beretta. The P-01 is more expensive and harder to find but imho its well worth the money and is one of my personal favorite carry/HD guns. Infact its in the night stand right now with my Streamlight TLR-1 mounted on it.

We just got in a P07 the other day; it struck me as being the Glock 19 of the CZ lineup. 
I'm a CZ guy and think if you're going to look at a CZ go get a steel gun. The P-01 is great, the SP-01 and 75's are rock solid. I owned a Phantom before trading it away and didn't care for a polymer gun. I own a SP-01 Shadow and a 75BD is on it's way to me.
I traded my CZ75BD for the P07. Why? for my wife.
I was a little concerned about bulging issues, but CZ is always good about fixing their guns and one trip to range was enough to make me believe it's a great gun.
How does it stack up against the CZ75?
- It's lighter (much)
- Better controls (decocker or safety)
- Slightly less accurate
- Different sights, Glock style
- Better trigger

How much is it at bradis? I may just have to make a trip out there...
Changed my mind. Went into Bradis today and got to handle a 2075 Rami and I was in love. Fit my hand perfectly and all the controls were easily accessible for me being a lefty. Put it on layaway and I'll be back in in a couple days to pick it up!
from my understanding the new line of production have had these issues fixed
