The safeties on my CZs never bothered me. I don’t get what all the fuss is about. It might be that of the many different rifles I own and hunt with, there are several different types of safeties. Cross bolt safeties on Marlins, trigger guard safety on a 7600, push safety on 700s, swing/wing safeties on Kimbers, Winchesters and Mauser. I suppose if you ran a 700 your whole life and nothing else, a CZ might give you some trouble.
