Gun safety, Gun thoughts and Gun Control and my shiny new CZ-75B!

ajrimmer42 · 01-07-10, 01:01 PM

any pics of your CZ???

Not quite the same I know, but I've just ordered a Tokyo Marui Glock 26 Advance GBB airsoft pistol, damn I can't wait!!!

That's about as close as most of us Brits get.

@ Tribsman and XabbaRus You both have quite valid points. I thought about leaving out those embarrassing facts but I'm too honest for my own good.

The X-wife was not a drug addict when I married her. 6 months into the relationship she decided that sitting at home was boring while I was hard at work so she took up using Meth with her old high school friends. I had put her through rehab and she was cured (LOL) but she still had some strange people showing up at our apt. even in the middle of the night so I bought a gun. One day I went out and she wanted to stay home and do laundry. She pleaded I leave my gun for her safety. I argued against it at first but she thought that one of her addict acquaintances would show up and do her harm so I finally relented. A half an hour later she was gone and so was my pistol. I cannot confirm what happened to it but since I didnt see her for a week and she came home all cracked out and without my firearm it seemed pretty obvious to me. I packed and left her and let her know that the Gun was reported stolen and last seen in her possession. 12 months and it was finally over.

The second situation I was actually going to go to a pawn store but my roommate was like Ill give you the money and since we work together you can pay me back next week. His official story was that he needed money for car insurance and sold it to his dad but again he was a pot head so my assumptions are probably dead on.

From now on my gun stays in my safe or if I have it out its to the range and back.

I have learned when it comes to firearms not to trust anybody.
Call it learning from past mistakes at least I learned.

Those CZ-75's look like sweet weapons.

Freiwillige · 01-07-10, 09:09 PM

Its a great weapon, Ergonomics are top notch, realiability is read to be top notch as well and it is Nato qualified if that tells you anything.

Its really influanced by the Browning Hi Power but ads some of its own unique features as well such as a slide that rides on the inside of the frame as opposed to the outside which makes it a tighter and more accurate weapon.

And acourding to CZ-usa's website more Military, Police and governments use the CZ-75 than any other sidearm in the world.

The prices are good and Col. Jeff Cooper considered it the finest firearm in that calibre in the world. That says alot coming from a Colt M1911 guy.

I couldn't be more pleased and cant wait until Saturday to head out to the Range.....Ill let you all know how it turns out

Wow to get Cooper to say anything nice about a 9mm is noteworthy!

Went to the Range today! It was a beautiful day, Bright and sunny with temps in the Mid 70's.

Pulled out the a couple .22 handguns to teach my Girl a bit of gun safety and we target shot some good groups at 10 yards.

Then the CZ came out and performed better than I had expected pulling tighter groupings than either of the Glock's my sister and mother were shooting.

I only put forty rounds through her but she handled them nicely and left a big smile on my Girls face when she had her chance.

CZ-75B gets

Yeah, very nice looking weapon.

How many rounds does it hold?

I was shooting at the indoor range last week. Bought some reload .40 cal ammo for my Ruger P-94; had my first jam, could not work the slide, had to use a screwdriver to work the round loose. That was unsettling. Not sure if it was the gun or the ammo, I went with factory loads from then on and did not have any more problems.
