I asked the following questions:
MIM present in the CZ handguns?
What steel are the barrels?
Can civilians preorder full cap mags for September 14 delivery?
Any info on the CZ-SP01?
ANSWERS by Mike Eagleshield
>1.The barrels are hammer forged from carbon steel, slides are forged from
bar stock and frames are investment cast.(no mim)
>> 2.Retail price on 75 16 rd magazines will be $48.00. (no pre-orders)
>> 3 Info on the SP 01 is unavailble, at this time.
My interpretations:
1. CZ doesn't use MIM (duh).
2. Barrels are ordnance steel and not chrome lined or anything special.
3. Full caps will probably settle in at $30.00-35.00 on the internet, especially if Mec-Gar is geared up.
4. The SP-01 is not going to be talked about, but it is the worst kept CZ secret of the year. They are probably waiting for the AWB to be definitively dirt napping.
For those not in the know, this is the SP-01: (Yes, it has my least favorite word--tactical, but I am buying one upon announcement):
CZ SP-01=18+1 rail equipped steel over alloy frame CZ-75 with a beavertail and ambi safeties.
