There seems to have been a groundswell of interest in CZ pistols and rifles recently. Show us your hardware!
Here's my CZ 453 varmint in .17HMR and my CZ 75 SP-01.

2This is my post WWII Czech 8mm build mounted in a Maple stock finished with pine tar. Leupold. Shoots very nicely.
The pine tar somehow pulled my beard, so I shaved to a goatee. Problem solved.

4Someone at the Austin Meeting had a Model 75 or 85 in stainless. A smart looking thing and I wish I had stopped long enough to shoot it.

7I have had the pleasure of shooting a CZ75 in 9mm; just about the most ergonomically well-designed handgun I have ever shot.

12I don't think so. I have short fingers and manage it, but I'm not that versed in all other pistol variants to say. But, the next time we have a meet up you can check for yourself.Simmer down wrote:On the 75B, is the DA pull outrageously long?sikacz wrote:http://www.theliberalgunclub.com/phpBB3 ... =3&t=26108

I may just have a crush on this model due to seeing it at the Austin meeting and the halo effect. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo_effect
I won't know for sure until I can take one for a spin.

Re: Show off your CZs
15This is by far my favorite. It started out as a Israeli .22 training made by CZ. It represents a collaborative effort between my friend Fred Bowen and myself. At the time Fred was an amateur engraver. I gave him the stamped trigger guard and trigger plate to see if he could improve its looks with some engraving.
Not only did Fred engrave it, he created a whole new (apparently milled) trigger plate and guard. The only tools Fred has besides those he uses to engrave are files, a hand electric drill and a hacksaw. With those he made this from "scrap steel" around his shop.
The following year I did an article for Gun Digest on a Fraser single shot rifle that Fred, Dave Norin and Bill Schultz combined to do for me. As a result Fred and Dave now work together on custom rifles, while Bill, who was retired, and still is, continues to do wonderful work for me.

Re: Show off your CZs
16Nice engraving work on the CZ .22.
Below we find a VZ24 Mauser. The blade on the bayonet goes up. Nasty.
The wood has a purplish tint to it.
The design included side swivels, presumably for horseback, motorcycle use, or cool factor six.
The bolt does not match. All the parts are CZ marked, however. Nice trigger.
It's quite heavy, and the stock is very robust. Even with Turkish surplus, the 8mm recoil is comparatively tame.
The hand guard clips to the barrel via a spring inside. Nice Mauser, the smoothest action of all the ones I have.
