Are there any gun instructors carrying CZs?

[Irfan]

Has anyone ever seen a gun instructor carrying a CZ-75/85? I mean this pistol really looks like a 1911 and there are many gun expert using some kind of the 1911 so why not this pistol? BTW Does anyone of you carry a full-size CZ? I do.

I'm an instructor and I use a CZ 75 for my instructor demo gun and also when I take classes as a student. That same gun is my home defense pistol.

But, I don't carry the CZ on a regular basis as I found the large, all steel, gun is just too heavy for every day carry for me. I have carried it a few times, and I'm sure I will again some time, but it's not my EDC.

I usually carry either a S&W Model 65 with a 3" barrel or a lately a Sig 239 9mm.

I'd use the S&W as my "demo gun," except the vast majority of the drills I need to demo are pistol drills, not revolver drills. When I do demo a revolver, I use that S&W.

I have been an instructor for 4 places, and I carry a CZ P01 every day. I don't do it right now, though.

Can't imagine it not being very popular with instructors.

CZ 75/85 are great pistols, but fairly large for carry.

The PO1 and others are more likely to be 'used' by instructors for carry and SD instruction.

Trebor, that Model 65 would be great for demonstrating recoil control techniques with a hot snortin' .357 round.

Or at least show off what good grips do for a revolver.
