Hello friends and neighbors// Received my CZ 75B .40s&w DA/SA today. I need opinons on what to do, or not do before shooting tomorrow.
This is my first factory new handgun and also my first full size semi-auto. I have a CZ2075RAMI in .40s&w and a Stoger Luger in .22,both are fine handguns.
I have applied :
--White lithium grease to the exposed areas of the slide and worked it many times.
--A drop of oil to the hammer/trigger mechanisms
--Ran a dry patch down the barrel then a patch with hoppes 9 lube oil then another dry patch.
And that is it.
Looking through the ejection port the inside of the slide appears to have a thin brownish residue, probably old lube. I left it alone for now, is this normal?
Factory mag 1 is loaded with :
10 Federal 180gr. FMJ
Factory mag 2 is loaded with:
3 Winchester Supreme Elite bonded PDX1 180gr.JHP
3 Corbon 165gr. JHP
4 Hornady 155gr. Tap FPD
Both mags 1 and 2 have numbered round indicator holes located in the back(10rd ).
Mag 3 CZSP01 40:
Numbered round indicator holes in the side(12rd)
Works in my RAMI so it "should" work in the 75B
Loaded with:
7 PMC Bronze 165gr. FMJ-FP
5 Federal 180gr FMJ-FN
Mag 4 no name, round indicator holes in the side, no numbers (10rd)
A mix of all 5 different round previously mentioned, I have the order in my note book.
I will make note of ammo accuracy and any FTF/FTE.
Do you have other 40s&w ammo preferences?
If my search -fu is weak and there is a link to breaking in a new autoloader please share it.
Thanks folks, content
