Kidneyboy :
When I first saw that Bright Blue grip (small iphone image) I actually thought for a second that it was a Giant Blue Insect in the Amazon Jungle. I looked for the insect’s wings. Not kidding.
It’s interesting that you partly ‘defected’ from a Glock. Most people with them seem to never consider a possible substitute, including my gun guru.
The CZ PCR has the best ergos of my four 9mm handguns (ie Sig P225, Walther P99, S&W 908).
Upon thoughtful reflection , the blue now seems a lot more attractive than normal black grips.

I had a couple of CZ's over the years and the ones I had beat the heck out of the inside of my trigger finger. My hands have changes since retiring from stonecarving/stonemasonry.
On the other hand I used to like how a G19 fit my hand, and now not so much.
Ok, that's frikkin funny......

I’m still waiting.
Once in awhile a PCR or SP-01 does get me looking a little closer.

handle a P07, I can carry that in shorts in the summer time. Very positive decocker, and the slide is grippy enough. but, that is a downfall of the CZ75 design, not much slide surface to rack.
For a long time, I wondered what all the fuss about CZ was about. Then I shot one . . . . Now I get it.

I recently bought a clone CZ75 design. A EAA all metal 10mm, and they don’t feel the same as a CZ. Fit and finish was not as good. trigger is good

Got one a couple of years ago for Christmas. Really loved the overall ergonomics and the solid heft of the gun. The grip angle was great; sort of reminded me of a Colt Commander in it's shape and height. I also liked that I could replace the decocker with a thumb safety with very easy to follow directions.

As @kidneyboy states, a CZ97B. Here’s my post on it:

Ain't that the truth. I had bought a CZ-75-B Omega "Convertable" a few months ago.
I liked it so much I went back and bought a 75-D PCR to have a carry gun like it.
While I was waiting on the background check to come back, I saw this one in the case, threw out an offer and somewhat to my surprise, they took it. CZ-82, 9X18.
So far I've been resisting those ones with the blue and orange grip panels. I'm afraid to ask to even hold one.
And I'm supposed to be a revolver guy.

Good advice to yourself. Be very, very careful you don’t shoot one. My other CZ’s don’t see much use now.

It's funny, but as much as I like the bigger CZ's, I really like that little CZ-82. I haven't fired this particular one, but I had one some years ago that was a shooting little trick. It was just lights out with Wolf ammo, back when Wolf ammo was cheap. I eventually sold it off when some other bright shiny thing caught my eye, and I don't think I was back home before I was kicking myself.
I dug around in my "Box O Holsters" and found a no name IWB leather holster that fits it like it was made for it. Much better than it does the Kimber Micro 9 it was sold as being for. I've got a couple hundred rounds of 9x18 split between Norma (FMJ) and Silver Bear (JHP) that I need to get to the range to see if it works as well as the other one did.

Yesterday I picked up a FNX 45 Tactical to fill this gap. When I fix the camera situation here another thread will be started.

A PO-1 had at least 10,000 rds. through it when I was told that I needed something larger than a .380–my commercial Russian Makarov.
The former Memphis native/owner who now is an Israeli security agent (has a YT channel in Israel) sold me that used CZ for a really low price.
Excellent gun- as reliable as my much newer PCR.
