CZ-70 for ccw?

[sevenbridges]

I have a CZ-70 and just started utilizing it for daily concealed carry.

They are a little large for a .32 ACP but the gun shoots and points very well.

There seems to be allot of people carrying .32 ACP mouse guns.

Does anyone else carry this pistol regularly?

Can't say I carry a CZ 70, but I do carry a CZ 75D, PCR. If your 70 is as reliable and accurate as the one's I'm familiar with it should be a great carry piece. I have never shot a .32 auto, about the only caliber from .22 to .480 Ruger, I have not had any trigger time with. If your CZ is not too large or heavy and is accurate and reliable, then it is a good choice. After all caliber is secondary to reliability and accuracy, .32 will get it done IMHO.

CZ70's have been great pistols for me. I still have a couple and really like to shoot them although I have not carried them as a CC pistol. A lot is said about the lack of power in the 32 for SD but if you can hit with it then it will do more than a 45 that you can not hit with or find too large to even carry.

CZ-70 is great little gun, but it is not a CZ-UB product. This is a Cold War era police gun. It has some neat features not found on more expensive pocket guns, like loaded chamber indicator, decocker safety, 1911 style mag release, DA/SA. The CZ-50s, the earlier version, had soft steel, while I believe the later CZ-70 had better manufacture.
The only problems I ever had with my CZ-70s, two of which were used as BUG and primary CCWs, were caliber, (.32 IS a bit light, but they were wicked accurate with Hydrashoks, fed and fired just fine), and that TERRIBLE trigger pull. All the way back, the gun was asking, "Do ya really want to shoot? Are you sure? Really sure?"
I would love to have another one, still have one lonely 32 Hydrashok laying around, too.
