CZ question
« on: February 09, 2015, 08:20:20 PM »
I know a few of you forum lurkers ;D are CZ owners or fans.  Specifically, anyone familiar with the CZ 75BD?

I have one too, along with a few others...   ;)


What is the question?

I got a couple.  They come in pairs you know.  Like Lays potato chips, can't have just one.

The BD is the decocker version of the B, which has a safety.  Takes a little more finagling to get a really good trigger.  Cajun Gun Works is your friend if you're into CZ's.

Same here, but I'm about 10 minutes NW of Bennington . 

You're welcome to try out any of the following:
CZ75 BD (decocker)
CZ SP01 Tactical (decocker)
CZ P01 (decocker)
CZ75 SA Kadet (safety)
CZ75 RAMI P (safety)
CZ100 (glock-style trigger safety)

Canik55 Shark-C (safety)
EAA Witness in either .45ACP, 9mm, or .22lr. (safety)

I also have a blued transitional CZ75b and a chrome Swiss AT-84s, but both are unfired and they will stay that way...  ;)

 I am very interested in getting the P06, does anyone have one? I can't find one locally to even hold.
Thanks

How does the trigger rate with a Glock standard trigger?  Glock does have one consistent trigger.

Do the magazines release freely when the release is pressed?

It seems to me in every CZ review in Gun Tests, the main complaint is about the trigger.  It seems to be all types of their guns.  Something about " a trip to a competent gunsmith should solve the problem" isn't what I have in mind.

Can you rack the slide on the 75B when the safety is engaged, or does it lock the slide like a 1911?

Probably won't be the best help when it comes to questions but what I can tell you is that I absolutely LOVE my 75 Shadow and so far have yet to find anything disappointing with it.
