I already own a CZ P-01 and a CZ P-07 Duty. The P-01 (excellent pistol) I bought a few years ago and that is a keeper for sure (accurate, great carry weapon, love the feel of it in my hand). The P-07 Duty I bought maybe a year ago, but I'm not sure I really into it that much (both how it looks and how it feels, it is pretty accurate though). My P-01 does everything it does but better. I'm thinking of selling or trading in the P-07 Duty towards getting a CZ 75B in stainless. I hear very good thing about the full-size CZ 75B line-up and I really like the looks of the 75B in stainless. Do most of you 75B owners out there, prefer the stainless or the black or nickel finishes? Also, is the stainless model a little more heavier than the black and/or nickel finished ones? Any negative things about the stainless 75B that I should be aware of? Thanks in advance.:)

The only negative thing about the stainless is that it's a tad slick feeling in hand. I remedied that with a couple of very carefully and tastefully placed pieces of grip tape. My stainless 75b is gorgeous and ridiculously accurate to boot.

This is 100 rounds at 25 - 30 feet.

I haven't had mine very long. Bought it because I have had some CZ's before, and wanted a real looker this time. Have run about 200 rounds without any problems. As accurate as any 9mm I have ever owned. Seems to be the same weight as any other full size CZ75.

I bought a stainless 75B ... when I got it home, I noticed some bozo at the factory decided to serrate my slide rails while putting the serrations on the rear of the slide.

Perhaps a CNC misfire, perhaps someone needs to put the crack pipe down.

It's been at CZ-USA for a month so far. I've yet to even shoot it.
 
Thanks for all the info and pics everyone. Great looking pistols.

stevemis, Sorry to hear that. I would be a little ticked myself. Hope you get your pistol back soon and maybe they will throw in a free mag or hat or something for your troubles.
 
Hmm. the jury is out for me.

I cant tell if its classy or gaudy.

I.. just dont know. I guess I will have to buy one to find out.
 
I think the matte stainless is classy. The one CZF posted is REALLY nice.
 
I have the CZ75B blued and haven't been happier. The gun is accurate straight out of the box. My first time I shot it, I thought the 2nd shot missed the paper completely. It actaully made a ragged hole from the first. yes, I agree that the grip may be a little fat but I have gotten use to it. With a good holster, I could carry it very comfortably during winter.
 
I have the polished stainless version, but I didn't choose it for the finish, or even for the fact that it was stainless. I got it because it's put together with the more curved trigger than the standard blued version. I didn't feel like buying a trigger and modifying the standard version.

The one thing I don't like about the polished stainless version is that it's slippery. No serrations on grip or trigger. It's a great range gun, works fine with the Kadet kit, but I'd have to have a gunsmith do some work on it before I considered it as a regular carry.

I took out my CZ P-07 Duty out of the safe this morning, held it and looked it over, now I'm having second thoughts of selling/trading it in. I really want the stainless 75B though. My wife will kill me if I get another firearm right now, without getting rid of another first, especially since I recently bought a NIB Beretta Inox 92FS from Buds Gunshop. Looks like I might wait about 6-8 months or so before getting the CZ 75B, that way I also end up keeping all my current firearms:D.;)
 
I have the black one, and that stainless finish is so pretty I regret to inform that I want the same gun but in stainless. That's something to do to surely upset every woman in the house and is somewhat unwise with the money.

now if only they made a kadet in stainless...
 
I've had two black 75B's for some time. One has been a dedicated 22, via a Kadet kit, for years. When I saw my first mat stainless 75B I bought it on the spot. It was just too darn pretty not to. Now I have three, but they go well with the two PCR's and the 97B.

I like the CZ's, because they are the only non-SA autos my 1911's and BHP's don't kick out of the safe.

Stainless CZ 75 with a dull like finish with some rosewood grips is probably the sexiest gun ever made!... Right up there with a 92 INOX sporting the same grips IMO... BEAUTIFUL. If i could find one, id buy it right away.

Stop, just stop!

I thought my next CZ was going to be a 97B, now not only do I want an SP-01 to add to my growing CZ collection, but a Stainless 75B. Beautiful, just beautiful.
 
My wife and I went to the pistol range a couple of weeks ago and swung by the gun shop when we got there. I wanted to "look at" a CZ75b matte stainless and a Beretta 92FS Inox. I quickly found out it's impossible to just "look at" these two pistols. We bought the Inox, only because the trigger reach was a little long on the CZ for the wife. The Inox is great, and if the 75B is anywhere near as good as my CZ 83 then I'll probably break down sometime this year and add it to my growing collection. From what I've read you won't go wrong with the CZ. Oh and I put a set of Hogue rubber grips with finger groves on the Inox today. SWEET! If you get the CZ, get the Hogue grips too, you'll love em! Enjoy!
 
If you like the PO1 you'll like the 75B. It is egronomic, well balanced, sexy, reliable and accurate. The stainless is a bronzish or goldish tint. I like mine a lot, but the handle developed some sort of stain (despite stainless material) from seemingly powder residue on my hand that didn't get cleaned off properly. It is a great pistol and I recommend it. I cannot comment on the blued model.
