Those are aftermarket mags for the same price as factory mags.  I prefer factory gear.

Mec-Gar makes the factory mags for CZ.  (And a bunch of other gun makers).

Really?  I had no idea.  Do you guys use Mec-Gar mags in your CZ 75's?

Have you had good luck with them?

Sorry for my earlier terse reply. Greg Cotel has a great selection, but prices seem to be average. The Mec-Gar mags are great. I like the finish on them. Just wanted to present options (and kinda sorta say, hey for the same price you can get 19 rounds from Mec-Gar   )

I recently bought three more 14 rounders for my compact, and rubber base plates for them. I bought the mags and plates from different places, but I don't think Greg Cotel was one of them. I think I found the base plates somewhere else cheaper. 

If you want to save a dollar, you might find deals elsewhere. Again, I think Greg's prices are just average (not a complaint), but the selection is decent.

Honestly, I'm not sure if saving a single buck is worth to hassle to shop around. But I'm pleased with the Mec-Gar mags, so that's my first stop. 

 

Edit: Since I was curious myself, so I checked. I did buy the rubber base pads from CZ for $9/ea (vs Greg Cotel $8.95/ea) simply because I was going to order other stuff from CZ anyways, and was consolidation shipping costs. Can't find the invoice for the mags though, so can't say for sure where I bought them.

I'll need to check out base pads for the compact. 

I have one on order.  Or actually sitting at CZ Custom since the end of February waiting to get a "Shadow - esque" work over.

I need to just buy comp ready guns.  I don't have the patience to wait on custom work!

This CZ thing has become an obsession for me.

I love my SP-01 Shadow.  It shoots far better than I do!  I'm working on remedying that.

Yup. I've been warning people, but some just don't listen. Once you get the CZ fever, there's no turning back. 

(For me, that started with a stainless steel 75B. Then a RAMI 2075B. Then a 75D PCR. Then a Scorpion Evo (waiting on two stamps). Now I'm holding out for a Bren carbine in FDE (they should arrive any week now...  ). And while I don't even have that one yet, I'm already eyeing a vz.58. HELP!

Rami is the next on my list. 

Seriously considering that anniversary model for a safe queen.  That's a sweet looking gun.

Seeing as how we have two things in common, I'll give this a try...

"YOU WANT TO GIVE ME THE SCORPION EVO"  

OK, so you feeling the urge to give me the EVO now?

[Obiwan]

From my cold, dead hands!

[Monkeybat]

Yeah I'll pass.

I have 2 factory and 2 aftermarket for my 75b.

None are marked, so I couldn't tell you which was which.

All 4 work flawlessly in both my 75b and P01.

I have used Mec-Gar mags for quite awhile now and find them to work extremely well. They do make many OEM magazines.

For those that qualify, CZ-USA does have a first responder (LEO/EMS/FF) and military, "blue label" type program.
