If it's a DA/SA, why would you have to rack the slide to cock it? The idea behind a decocker is that it gives you a longer first pull since it's sitting with the hammer down at the half cock notch. I cannot imagine why someone would make a SA only pistol with a decocker. My favorite CZs are decocker models and with a bit of trigger work, the DA pull is right around 6lbs and is smooth. That's how I carry and practice with them too. Practice the draw with a DA first and SA follow up shots.I don't have one, but I've been looking at the TP9 V2 as it's DA/SA instead of SA only. Is yours a range toy or self-defense? The idea of having one loaded without a safety freaks me out, but, if you decock it, then you have to work the slide to recock the pistol. Just curious if these entered into your decision to buy it?

I use mine at the range and as a carry gun, depending on where I am going. I break the rules of carrying by NOT having one in the chamber, so no safety was not my concern. I have 11 young grandchildren, and I'll take the extra second to rack and shoot before I risk having one in the pipe. I know it goes against most others, but that's my decision. Still better than no gun, and I can un-holster and rack pretty quick. I saw numerous videos on You Tube before I made the purchase, and those were the deciding factor.

I'm sorry, but if you don't trust yourself to carry with a round in the chamber then why carry at all? You are carrying a empty gun. And if you think you "can un-holster and rack pretty quick" you have another thing coming. Not unless you are Jerry Miculek quick. If you don't trust your gun, equipment or yourself, then leave the gun at home.
I have the TP9SA, & it shoots like a champ, got about 500 round through it. It is a great pistol for the money.
Excellent trigger out of box. I have tried several different ammo through it not a single malfunction, to me the Canik line of pistol are well worth what you pay for them.
I just got a PPQ for carry & at this time it's just setting in my cabinet, thinking about selling it. I am the type of gun owner that cannot see the reasoning having 2 firearms of the same caliber.

Not trying to start an argument, but my families safety comes first. I would never keep one in the pipe just for the fact that in a one in a million chances, one of my grandchildren get to my gun for whatever reason....have a heart attack, passed out , whatever and I'm the only adult with them? 'll take that chance of having to rack and shoot. Still better than no gun. I'm 56 and have never had to draw on somebody. I have heard all the reasons, and a lot of my family is in law enforcement, so I've heard every reason to carry one in the pipe. Still won't do it.
