Hi all! 
I am a senior with an additional slight grip strength impairment of my left hand, so I have to be careful of buying semi-auto's that I don't have the opportunity to work the slide on beforehand. I am pretty settled on either the 01 or the 07 (considering their reliability and features) but cannot find one of either to see if the slide action is easy enough for me. I just purchased a Shield EZ 9mm and that IS "EZ" to rack even for me, as a possible yardstick, however, I also own a XD .45acp which I can't even BUDGE and have to use a Brass Stacker pull ring to work it.
I know the fact that the two CZ's are DA/SA and 9mm should make them pretty easy to charge, but I'm wondering whether the fact that the slides ride inside the frame rail make it more difficult?
How would you compare both to each other, and also both to other manufacturer's DA/SA hammer strike 9mm's?
Thanks
