CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow models: Specifically developed for sport shooting
While CZ SP-01 models find versatile use in both self-defense and competitions, the Shadow models are designed specifically for sport shooting. Compared to the CZ SP-01, they are lighter, and their ergonomics allow for easy and quick handling.
Considering the specific focus of CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow models, sights available are primarily of competition nature. This means they typically feature fiber optics and are fully adjustable for both windage and elevation.
You can choose according to your needs and preferences between sights with fiber optics in both the front and rear sights, with white dots, or with fiber optics only in the front sight.
What to consider before choosing sights
Before making a final decision on which sights to upgrade your CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow model with, consider the following points.
Fiber optics, white dots, or classic sights?
If you are not specifically looking for a certain type of sight, we recommend selecting full fiber optic sights – both in the rear sight and the front sight.
From our experience and customer feedback, you will appreciate the color contrast between the fibers of the front sight and rear sight, as well as the different fiber diameters. A combination of 1mm fiber in the rear sight, which is closer to your eye, and 1.5mm fiber in the front sight, which is further away, provides the ideal difference for comfortable aiming.
If you prefer the option with fiber optic only in the front sight, acquiring a 1mm fiber optic rod for the front sight is sufficient.
Everything depends on your personal preference and experience.
Can I install a red dot on my CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow?
Absolutely yes! Even though CZ 75 SP-01 models come from production as classic models without a slide cut for optics.
To install a red dot, you only need the appropriate red dot mount compatible with your model.
These mounts work as a direct replacement for the rear sight in the dovetail cut. With the wide variety of mounts available, you can install almost any red dot on the market to your CZ model.
What about the front sight when I Install a red dot?
Once you install a red dot mount in place of the rear sight, you can no longer use the rear sight for aiming. But what should you do with the front sight, which then loses its function? A front sight filler will elegantly solve this issue.
Watch for compatibility with the model
Be careful and make sure you select the proper sights for your firearm.
There are different sights for CZ 75 SP-01 models [and CZ 75 Compact] and for CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow models [CZ 75 Compact Shadow Line].
The term "Shadow" in the name means – among many other things – that the dovetail cut for the rear sight belongs to the "Shadow" line of CZ models, not from the "CZ 75" line of CZ models.
