Cz 75 kadet (the pistol not the conversion)

[chemarl]

Hello everyone
An other question, I have in mind buying two more .22 LR pistols, one revolver and the other a semiauto.

I am interested on the semiauto side by the CZ Kadet pistol, I will like to know how reliable it is, I hade heard good things and bad things about older models, have CZ fixed the firing pin FTF Issues, double feedeng Issues and ejecting Issues from this model.
What I like about this pistol is that is all solid steel, size as a real one and all features and controls as a real one.
How good are thety?
are they picky about ammo?
what are the experiences with this pístol and its reputation?
The other thing I like is the price, half of the price of a new S&W M41.

ON the revolver side I am interested in the S&W 617 6" full underlug barrell, is it all stanless steel??
How good is it?
Do they have any Issue with their firing pin to provoke constants failures to fire???
what are your axperinces also with this one????

My best regards to all of you and many thanks in advance.

Is the Kadet pisto better quality and performance than a Buckmark????

Two recent additions: 617-5 6", 6-shot and 617-6 4", 10-shot. Putting 'em through their paces right now.... trying to decide which one stays.
Both were purchased used, neither has had a single FTF in approx. 500 rounds each, so far. Very high-quality and I'm very satisfied with both.

Yep, they are all stainless steel and heavy. The 4" handles and balances better, the 6" is muzzle-heavy in comparison...
Not uncomfortably so, but it had better continue to prove to be more accurate at 25 & 50 yards (both with and without scope)
or the 4" will get the nod.
