Tz-99

[Don357]

I don't know if anyone has heard of this gun, but I want to tell you about one of the best deals and guns around. The TZ began life as a Yugoslavian (not Checkz) CZ99 9mm, then after "Slick Willie" Clinton, it went to South Africa as the TZ99 9mm, then on to Israel to become the Golan and grow to
.40 S&W. Then back to Yugo now Serbia and was imported by Charles Daly as the ZDA in 9 mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP. Then EAA started importing it as the Zastava EZ05 and added a rail. The gun resembles the Sig 226 from which the design was taken, but was improved on, and sells for about half or less the price of a Sig. For more info check out www.cz999.org. Here is some pics of mine.

The Last time I checked Florida Gun Works had some with 2 15rd mags for $389. Check out, www.floridagunworks.com . Go to "handguns" then "other brands". They were in the second column toward the bottom of the page.

Mine has a "V" or "heart shaped" mark on the left rear side of the slide, the right side of the trigger guard, and the right side of the locking lug of the barrel. Does anyone know what it signifies?

I got mine from AIM in 01 for $269. I don't know how but it came with two hi cap magazines.

It's a nice gun but a big handfull for a 9mm.

Knowing what a good gun it is, today I'd order a half dozen for $269.

I saw one go for $250 about a month ago at auctionarms!!! I kick myself for not buying it!

How do they shoot?

Anyone own a SIG 9mm and compare?

I don't know about a Sig, but my TZ is the sweetest thing. 15 rds into the X-ring at 30 ft as fast as I can pull the trigger. The trigger is cool, rather heavy for the first round in double action, but the rest in single action is light, almost touchy. I love it !!!! So far I've had no FTF and only two stove pipes due to being dirty. Those were during my pre-purchase test fire. Since I've cleaned it, no more problems. That was 400 rds ago.
This gun also comes in .40, .45, and I think 10mm, but not as a TZ.
Check out, www.eaacorp.com, and /or, www.zastava-arms.com. The new EZ05 even comes with an accessory rail.

Seems like getting parts, if something breaks, may be a problem for these guns... Except for that, they have a pretty good reputation.

My bad Zamboxl,
Try this site, www.zastava-arms.co.tu/english/civilni.htm. The CZ99 (which is the same gun, just Serbian made) comes in 9mm and .40 s&w. They have a contact number there and should be able to tell you where to get one.
