Awesome pistol

I use mine for IPSC and love it! Don't be surprised if at first it stovepipes or fails to eject. Mine did until break in was complete and since then has run marvelously.
 
There are four club members with them; I am one of them. I love the way it fits my hands, the trigger, and the accuracy with the right load. I outshot 3 Sig X5's at 35meters this summer which is saying quite a bit since the three shooters are usually much better than I am (got my butt wooped at 10m thought :)).
 
If you like it now, order a new lighter main spring and recoil spring from CeeZer (on this forum). The dual action trigger pull gets much better and the already good single action pull is even better. And it's a cheap upgrade + easy to install.

I think I got a #13 main and a #15 recoil spring. Makes an already amazing gun even better.
 
thanks guys, can you recommend the best ammo to put through this :)

CZ says it was made for the 124gr, but will also fire the 115 and 147. I load my own, and use 124gr plated bullets. The CamPro's are great, but I'm trying Berry's next, as they're cheaper.

Cerendrad is absolutely correct. I left the recoil spring alone, just did the mainspring swap, but it was the best deal I've made in years. Ridiculously cheap, easy, and effective.

If you try the 147 grain bullets and load them to the same power factor you will notice a significant reduction in noticeable recoil... Its quite dramatic... In combination with a powder like titegroup will give you an advantage in the time it takes to acquire your second site picture... I didnt believe it but have moved to 147 grain bullets it does make a difference...
