awesome! I'm waiting for the funds to buy a CZ75B myself. I saw a Tactical like yours at the local gunshow last weekend. They wanted $425 for it. How does that compare to what you paid?

I plan on getting the plain black 75B, but didn't see any at the show. The local Academy has a couple for $389, which might not be a BAD price since CZ prices are going up!

Let us know how she shoots!

I figured Academy's price might be OK with what CZs are going for now. The cat is coming out of the bag!!

I DID see an EAA Witness for $340 at the show. I'd be pretty tempted to get that instead, but it has the slide rails that go all the way to the muzzle. It seems to me that would attract dirt and dust.

I'll likely end up getting that CZ 75B from Academy. Gotta call one local gunstore first and check their price.

CZ marketed the gun with PCR or LowMount style rear sights initially.
Its interesting that your gun has the uprights on it........very nice gun, BTW.
Let us know how it shoots.
Shoot well

Shooter,

If you can, check out some of that Walmart WInchester white box 100rd packs. I heard the CZ75 extractor doesn't like the rim shape in those. Seems the 100rd packs' extractor groove is different than the other Win white box.

Just curious, cuz the 100rd pack is probably the best value on locally purchased ammo.

Nice gun. I like it. I do remember reading that they were to come with the low mount sites too.
I have never had any issues with the Wally World value packs and my CZ's. I shoot that stuff most of the time.

I wish I had the money for a CZ-75 myself... they sure are pretty.

Never had a problem with this ammo in my 1999 vintage 75B.

Saw one of these at a local gun shop (I think ~$420) and I liked the way it looked. Is it just like the standard black polycoat model, but with a green polycoat frame?

Hey, nobody's going to accuse you of having an evil 'black gun!'

Seems like it has 'character' built in. It looks like it's 'been there, done that' even though it is new!

A little bit of loving holster wear and it'll really look good.

Hope it gives you many years of fun.

Is the green/tactical model new? I don't see it listed on the CZ-USA site.

You people and your CZ-75s are doing bad things to my budget. :p :D

That is one sweeet lookin' pistol. Now I have to decide if I want a straight black, or a OD green/black. :uhoh:

ed dixon,

It is a limited Edition Pistol and from what I was told they only made 1,000 of them. Not sure though. Better get one quick. Before there gone..

ARGH!!!!

More CZ stuff near the top!! You guys are driving me nuts! Only TWO MORE DAYS and I'll have one in my hot little hands.

Not gonna get the tactical... just straight black. I'm really starting to think black things are better.... black = tactical...

shooter: What kind of price bump are we talking about for the tactical?

September 10, 2003, 08:41 PM
ed dixon,

I paid 430.00 for it was a little high I thought but I really like the finish and the knife is kind of cool too that it came with...

Thanks, shooter. If I go CZ green before they run out, I'll post early impressions. Adding a pistol to the 452 and 550 I've brought home recently will definitely start looking like a trend. Something about them Czech ladies.

Ok sounds good. And good luck with whatever finish you get! You will love it either way. :D

I couldn't resist. I picked it up along with some factory normal capacity magazines from Ray's Hardware. I like it, but could do wiithout the cheesy Chinese knife. This is my first CZ, I think it spretty cooll that they even include snap caps for thing. All details covered.

Doesn't anyone in the Czech Repub. make a decent liner lock?

Made my first inquiry today at a good size dealer. He'd never heard of it and couldn't bring it up on his computer. Is it possible they've all shipped, and if you don't find one in a store, the store won't be able to find one at a distributor?

I'll check a couple more places, but I wonder if the gouging will begin as the supply dwindles. $430 sounds better than $500+, especially when I was quoted $385 for a standard model. Favorite color, crappy Chinese knife, added mystique...
