Need it in a .40 ...

[Steelharp]

Because you have a thing for high priced, heavy, exceptional handguns with oversized dust covers?

 

Just my guess... ;)

Never owned a CZ but this one is calling my name.

I bet that BigK is giving you subliminal messages about how good CZs are...

[keeterbird]

b/c CZs arethe most comfortable handguns, I could shoot mine all day. You will find your own reason to love them. They do multiply.

[BigK]

The only explanation for why you want that gun so bad is simple...impeccably good taste.

I traded in that superpower for some 2 boxes of .223 ammo.

Those are great pistols. A friend of mine recently won a local 10 round plate shoot series with his TS in 9mm.

I'm jealous of that gun...but at the same time love my SP-01 to death.

[BigK]

I did get to hold one of these in 9mm at a gun show once. I was instantly smitten, myself.

The sights are just so clean and simple and the grip...ohhhh. I think I spasm'd a lil when the guy told me to go ahead and dry-fire it. The slide just glided backwards like it was on ball bearings and that trigger made the sweetest lil "tick" as it engaged. It just hung there like it was balanced on a pin head waiting for my finger to give it the slightest urge rearward. It barely moved under almost no pressure at all and had the cleanest, most positive break I ever felt. Keeping the trigger pressed, I racked the slide slowly and hardly recall moving my finger forward at all when I felt that satisfying lil "tick" again as the trigger reset.

Only a high-end 1911 can even come close to that feeling.

It did feel like I was writing a Penthouse Letter, now that you mention it. I almost changed the opening sentence to "This kind of thing doesn't usually happen to me, but..."

There was a VW Micro bus full of 18 year old cheerleaders driven by an FFL Holder who stocked a full line of CZ's in the trunk!

And where can I find this van ?

Cool, I accept cash for that impeccably good taste of yours!

i have a 75B in 40,great shooter - I actually have 6 CZs and all are great shooters :)

[itchytriggerfinger]

I have been trying to find a Tactical Sport locally in 9mm for years.  Hasn't happened yet, but when it does, I will buy it.  I got a chance to shoot one about 6 years ago and had to wipe the drool off off it before handing it back to the guy.

[timthetoolman]

Because you have instinctively great taste.  I bought a surplus PreB CZ75 from a friend in 9mm as a beat around pistol.  I has become my favorite 9mm of the several I own. I cant find a bad thing to say about it with the exception of finding mags.  I am know looking into re-doing the gun to clean it up a bit, maybe some coating or something just to pretty it up a bit.  The trigger is great, great accuracy, good balance, just a great all around pistol.

[itchytriggerfinger]

Now that I have a Shadow Target I'm thinking about sending my 75B to CZ Custom and have them work it over.

[Guest Lester Weevils]

If I was to put a cz custom single action trigger kit in my two tone CZ 85 Combat then it would look exactly like that. Except mine has the ultra-slim black aluminum grips rather than wood grips as in the picture.

 

CZ Custom just charges "a little too much" for me to send em my gun, and the CZ85 contains so many parts I'm afraid if I tried to install the SA trigger parts, that the pistol would go "sproing" and spray tiny  parts all over the room and I'd never get it put back together even if I could find all the parts. :)

 

Have thought about buying one new from CZ Custom, and last year at the gun show IIRC Volunteer Arms had one of those babies fer sale in the flesh. But I keep getting scared off by the price. Its not a crazy expensive price, but still...

[Fourtyfive]

Found a used one for $900 , and new for $1,300.

[BigK]

There's another really good CZ gunsmithing outfit down in West Monroe, Louisiana called Cajun Gun Works. The owner goes by smecky on www.CZFirearms.us.

He even has some improvements that CZ Custom doesn't offer.

[itchytriggerfinger]

While the CZ 85 is a fine pistol, even with a trigger job, it's not a TS.

After that, I think I need a napkin....
