CZ Addiction

Postby gimmefuel on Tue Jul 05, 2011 9:58 pm

So I bought this last fall.
CZ75B Cold War Commemorative Edition

Now I realize its sub-$500 gun, but it is a limited edition and I couldn't bring myself to shoot it so I ordered this:
CZ75 SP-01

Image
I put 250 rounds of WWB through it this weekend and it was absolutely flawless. So nice to have a gun that's more accurate than I am.
I will say that after 250 rounds through that, picking up and shooting my Glock 26(my daily carry) felt like a feather.
So yeah, I have CZ addiction, I suppose there's worse things...

I keep trying to sell them and rehab myself but seem to sell one and buy two. Back up to 7. CZs multiply like rabbits.

You could gets a Browning high power and a Tangifold witness so you can have the original, the copy and the copy of a copy.

Speaking of Cold War, I was just standing at Checkpoint Charlie yesterday in Berlin. Early in '61, they didn't have the wall up yet, and there had been some rioting on the American side, and a demonstrator got shot by the East Germans, and then 10 American Tanks showed up in the street, and shortly after that 10 Soviet tanks showed up 50 yards on the other side. Then there was a 16 hour standoff, and Kennedy has the presence on mind to withdraw the US tanks, and Kruschev followed suit. If one of those tanks on either side had fired a round, it would have been the start of WWIII. Made the Cuban missle crisis look like tea party. Weekend after next I'll be in Prague for 3 days.

I wouldn't mind adding a CZ to the collection one day. Fine firearms!

12 CZs here and counting. Yes, they are rather addictive.

I haven't got a lot of space for them to procreate in, but they seem to breed.

I would really like to pick one up. Or at least shoot one for now. Have shot the 92fs and would like to shoot a 75b to compare. From what I read people prefer the 75 but I would still like to personally compare.

CZ Kadet .22 with fake silencer (for weight). As accurate as my previous S&W 41 for less than half the money. The Kadet kit fits all the 75 series CZ's if you want to switch back and forth. I bought an extra CZ7b, sold the upper for what I paid for the gun and now just grab the gun instead of messing around. Not that it takes that long at about 2 minutes.

Should have labeled. Top left going down:
SP01
75B
Canik 100C Alloy frame like the PCR but with safety
75B with CT grips

Top right:
25th Anniversary
PCR (75 compact D) alloy frame with decocker
Kadet

All are 9mm except the Kadet.

ANYONE HAPPEN TO HAVE CZ COMPACT, PCR OR P01 GRIPS THEY WANT TO SELL??

Nice collection Larry! My addiction started 2 years ago when I got a PCR, and I've since added a SP-01 Phantom and an alloy RAMI. I want to add a Shadow sometime this year and am trying to decide between the SP-01 Shadow and the 75 Shadow.

ANYONE HAPPEN TO HAVE CZ COMPACT, PCR OR P01 GRIPS THEY WANT TO SELL??


Maybe, I put wood grips on my PCR and love them. But I think I want to hang on to the stock rubber ones incase i want to go back
