Does anybody find CZ pistols in their local gunshops?

I've been looking around for a compact or .40S&W CZ-75 and can't find any local gunshops that carry CZs. Whenever I inquire, I get faint name recognition or "Had some CZ rifles.", but nobody ever stocks pistols. :banghead:

I had to buy my CZ-75 via the Internet, got my CZ-40B about 100 miles away, and bought my CZ-70 at a gunshow, although I've never seen another CZ at a gunshow again.

Do you any of you guys ever see them locally?
 
Academy Sports in the austin area stores carries CZ75s in 9mm and .40

McBride's Guns has a big selection of CZ firearms (of course, they have an impressive selection period)

Flip side - big Houston gun show two weeks ago barely had a CZ in the whole place - one of the big dealers had 4 CZs, and I saw one used 75B for $350 without a hi-cap :rolleyes:

They're not as prevalent as the Ruger P series, Berettas, Glocks, etc., but you can find them (at least around here) without much trouble.
 
Yeah, what Dorrin said.

I live in North Austin (I could throw a rock and it would land in Round Rock), and found my 75B (9mm) at Academy. They had one in .40S&W. They also had a compact. A couple Glocks, Berettas, Rugers, Springfield Armorys, and Taurus'. Got a better deal that at the local gunstore (McBride's. The guy I talked to on the phone said they wanted $449 for it. Academy's price was $389)
 
Yes.

Of the places I check regularly, MC Sports has the CZ-100 on display. Another (probably the best within easy reach) usually has a CZ-75 on display. A third place (which mostly caters to hunters) has a EAA Witness pistol on display (almost a CZ).
 
I know of one store that is a "factory authorized" dealer by me.
But their prices are ridiculous! About $500.00 for a CZ 75B.
However, there is another store that can order them for me. Last time I checked, I can pick one up for about $400.00 through them.
There's always the gun shows though...:D
Saw a PO1 for $429.00 .
 
DMK, in NC I know 2 shops that stocks CZs regulary.

Ed's Gun Shop in Vass, NC and Firepower Inc. in Matthews, NC. I don't remember what CZs run at Firepower, but Ed's has really good prices on CZs.
 
I don't see too many CZ's in stock at the shops around here. I did see one new P01 at a gun shop today. Most shops will order CZ's though.
 
I don't know of any around here that keep them in stock,but I know of one shop that will order them for you. I saw a compact Witness today at a pawn shop. It was a polymer .45 and was nice gun for the price. He was asking $249 for it I'm sure he would have came down of that some. If I wasn't a poor college student I would have bought it.
 
The shop I occaisionally work at used to have a CZ-75 on the shelf... it took 6 months and two "sales" to get rid of it. The owner isn't in any hurry to stock more.

The other local shop has a CZ-75B... its been on the shelf now for at least 3 months.

The CZs just don't sell well around here... I don't much care for them, so I guess I'm (regionally at least) average. :D
 
Specialty Sports, the best gunshop in Colorado Springs, carried a few when I lived there. I also thought I saw them at Gilberts here in Virginia.
 
I think IDAHO is worst of all. I finally felt sorry for the Dealer and bought
a 75B. It has been in the display case for 3 years. That and a CZ70 (used)
are the only CZs that I have seen here in 9 nine years. You never see any SIGs or H&Ks in my area. Most people here buy cheap..Rugers or even Hi-Points.

Thats is, if they still have jobs. Our area is so depressed that the
pawnshop won't even buy guns.

Thanks, NAFTA *)*(&^(*)!!

drive 30 miles and can find more than I can buy

Several dealers in the metro area. I bought mine at a local gunshow though. 10 minutes from my house.

They are all over. But the guy I bought mine from said he would never carry them again because it took him too long to get rid of them.
