    CZ SP01 Manual...

    I always read the manual of every firearm I ever buy, front to back (if it came with one, even if I can get my hands on something off the internet for a C&R items). You often find interesting things you would not suspect.

    However, reading the manual to the CZ SP01 was interesting. First, I don't recall the manuals to my CZ-97B and CZ-40B being as detailed or technical. Nor are they this technical from Glock, Smith, Ruger, or Colt either. A little more from HK and SIG, but I think CZ goes a bit further.

    While it was loaded with grammatical and typographical errors, the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS section is more thorough than many other manufacturers' recommendations. It had some great bits that I've seen, but that you don't see too often, yet make sense - like:

    "Never fire your pistol near an animal unless it is trained to accept the noise."

    Also, it has a lengthy elaborate explanation of the RULES OF THE SAFE HANDLING TRITIUM SIGHTS and DUTIES OF THE TRITIUM SIGHTS OWNER which are extremely detailed. My favorite part was this:

    "In case of its inspiration (sic) it is recommended to increase the intake of liquids and eventually to take some diuretic (beer with low content of alcohol) for acceleration of the body water exchange. "

    It has a breakdown in chart form of every model of the CZ75 and what is different for each. And later it has a TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS for each model in the same way that is more detailed than you typically see in a manual.

    Just interesting... Yeah, I know - cool story bro.

    If some level of government had that information, what would they do with it? How would having that info benefit public safety? How would it benefit law enforcement?

    They do make a good manual. I remember reading the parts about the tritium in the night sights.

        I knew a health physicist who worked a great deal with tritium and indeed beer was acknowledged as a good flushing agent although he never mentioned anything about low alcohol content.

          I assume that glowing in the dark could be an asset to one who is intoxicated.

            It's like an actual small book with a hard, squared-off professional binding; not some flimsy stapled pamphlet you get from some manufacturers.

                Interestingly, "inspiration" can also mean to breathe something in.

                  Beer is a well known chelation agent for tritium exposure. That's funny it's in the manual.
