Just ordered a CZ 75b in stainless....

[meanmrmustard]

Paid for it on 12/20 and my FFL and I did the transfer on 12/26.




I have had one problem with them that really got to me, but......I have purchased around 30 "items" from them in the past 5 years, so 1 time out of 30 ain't bad in my book. And for me to get the CZ in 6 days during Christmas is unbelievable - IMHO.

I will also add (and I have witnesses ) that my first shot at 15 yards went dead center bullseye. All follow-up shots were close to the first.

It is the smoothest shooting 9 I have ever owned, and I've owned a few. I let 2 friends at the range shoot it and they have been on a conquest for any CZ 75 they can find.

YMMV

I'm glad it worked out for you, with the gun AND Buds.

I will, however, don't trust nor use them. Nor will I ever. I can find competitive prices anywhere where they treat a paying customer correctly. Auctioning items that have been overbought is not only ridiculous, it's probably criminal somewhere.

But, you don't have THAT problem. You are going to have buyers remorse! You'll want more!

Love those CZ's. For those who think they might not like to own one, like one of my friends used to say,may I suggest you never pick one up. He now owns two.

I have bought a dozen or so guns from Buds. Never had any issues. Competitive and they have the guns that are non existant in my LGS. With a $10 transfer and free shipping I save a lot not paying local and state taxes.
Only problem you will have now days is the shortage caused by Obama. All firearms are drying up and going up $.

Consider yourself lucky.

Like I said, shady.

They're awesome, as a most CZs.

Be wary of Buds though, they are shady to do business with. I'd hound them near daily, as they sell guns they don't have in stock (as in we take your money, even though we don't have the gun for awhile, auction back ordered guns, and have crappy CS and sales reps) and wouldn't want to have them pull a fast one. For every good review they get, there's at least one or two horror stories behind that. Be careful.

Do you really believe that for every positive transaction with Buds there is 1-2 bad ones? Sorry but you are way off. Their growth and success is proof that that is just not true. Also simple forum reading will show you the vast majority of customer are happy with Bud's and their transactions. I have bought at least 15 guns from them over the last few years. Zero problems. As a matter of fact 2 times in particular they went beyond what was required of them.

This thread alone has close to 30 positive transactions. By your math I would expect to see 30 -60 negative ones. I don't see them. They do a lot of transactions and, BY FAR, the majority go well

The 75B in stainless is one of my favorite guns. Good choice.

There's a guy on the CZ Forum website who sells stainless baseplates for CZ magazines. He makes them in both a matte finish or a polished finish to match your gun. It's a nice touch on an already pretty gun.

60K on a plain jane 75B with lots of custom options. Still shoots outstandingly.

The 15# hammer spring ($7-ish) will be a very noticeable improvement in the DA trigger. It will fire virtually all commercial ammo reliably with this spring.
500-1000rds of dry and live fire will also smooth it out and seat everything nicely.

Good to know....probably order a few for show & tell.

Yeah, I thought I had ordered one - but I got my order from Wolff today and I only received a 14# recoil spring and extractor spring......I guess I forgot to order a new mainspring.

Then you aren't searching well. Also, look at the nature of negative reviews, then get back to me. My experience, along with many others, is in the neighborhood of horrible. So your majority seems quite a bit off.

Also, because a company does shady dealings or has poor CS doesn't mean they can't grow. I've wondered why their prices were low...makes sense.

As for me, I use J&G.

We will just have to agree to disagree on Bud's then. But for what it is worth, I put a Glock G4 19 on layaway with them last month. Paid it off Monday (yesterday) morning. It shipped today and will be at my FFL by end of day Thursday. Less than 4 days from payment to recieving, in this crazy enviroment is impressive. 4 days

I know what you mean. This is my very first magazine. The first round is the one touching the orange at the bottom...

useless signiture

That is good. I'm glad it worked out. You're fortunate to have found a G19 to begin with!

I've never dealt with bud's, but I have heard opinions both good and bad. Were I in the market for a new CZ, I would go through these fine fellows http://www.damascusgunshop.com/shop/
