Best if you would try both of them. They are both superb 9mm's....both high capacity. The XD holds 17+1 and the CZ SP-01 holds 19 +1. It is heavier than the XD because it has a steel frame. The CZ has rubber grips and great sights, and it is a fine target and defense gun, but a little heavy for CCW. The CZ SP-01 is another improvement over the original CZ 75, which, in itself, is a great gun. The XD-9 is light, compact, and rugged, as well. You won't find many negative things said about either one. Remember, this is an XD forum and most guys don't have a clue about a CZ or SP-O1, but will vote anyway. I would suggest that you ask about the SP-01 over at czshooters.com if you are interested in it. As I said, the XD-9 is a fine weapon, and I would never sell mine, nor would I sell my CZ's.

Get both, you forgot to ask what you wanted to use it for.

Just got SP-01 to accompany my XD, range report and pics forthcoming....

You didn't suggest in your post that this was going to be your purchase, so I will give you my opinion as to what I would buy.
High capacity isn't my priority, rather I opt for balance and handling.
With this in mind, I would get a Browning Hi-Power, as this would meet or exceed my expectations for a great 9mm semi-auto.
One can never go wrong with a John Browning classic.

I have a P-01 and a couple XD's. Tough choice if you are looking at the XD9 Service. I really like my CZ.

If I had to choose on accuracy I think the CZ has a slight edge.

I just bought a CZ75 for the wife , while it isnt as well finished as the Commie 75 I had in the 80's it is still one hell of a pistol. But I would be hard pressed to chose between the 2. The main selling point for the wife was the external safety on the CZ and it is her gun so.

I have both + 2 CZ 75B's. I love them all. These guns will last and last...totally reliable........no need to spend more.

CZ definitly .I have a CZ-75B and a CZ-83 . Geat gun for the money. I had a XD but couldnt get the grip safety to engage half the time with the web of my hand. I figured that was dangerous, so i sold it .

I had that problem at first with my XD 45 because I was too anxious to shoot it, but I cleaned it good and sprayed it with light oil and wiped it good. It's been a different gun...no problems whatsoever.
