Beretta M92FS or CZ 75B

[corsara]

Considering the Baretta M92FS and the CZ 75B. I haven't tried any of them, nor I have the means to try them right now. My only option for the moment---order through Internet, then wait for the LTATT, and only then try at the range.

I don't have big hands, but don't want a small and tiny pistol that looks like a toy. Which one of the two would you recommend?

 

[cbabes]

The rule goes, shoot them first and then decide because the right gun isn't the same for everyone. My opinion is I have shot both and prefer the feel and accuracy of the CZ. The CZ feels good in big or small hands. Also, I find it's more common for Berettas to jam up during shoots. I am sure if you keep the Beretta well oiled and take care to clean it you will be fine but it's just so much nicer to know you can skip a cleaning if you like.

You would be hard pressed to find a pistol that has a better shaped grip than a CZ. Unless you have the hands of a sasquatch, you will probably find the grip of the Beretta quite large.

I have both. Flip a coin, you can't go wrong.

Go for the CZ 75 shadow best factory trigger I've ever pulled.

Both good guns.
I voted for the CZ. Less moving parts and I personally find the Beretta grip to be very thick.

100% my vote goes to Beretta 92 FS Inox and believe me I have both...
my CZ 75 SS is for sale, have to admit CZ has to much market adv for NOTHING!
Beretta Inox will stay with me, it's a keeper !

The beretta does have a fairly fat grip. I have normal sized hands (I take a large sized glove) and find it too big.

Had both a 92 and a 75. Sold them both, but I preferred the 75. 92 was just too clunky. - dan

Depends on the size of your hands. A lot of people with smaller hands have a hard time with the Beretta's. Both are great guns.

 

[Milsparro]

I have the 75B, and I like it. Good first pistol.

I have a CZ75b in .40S&W and like it a lot ,BUT, want a Beretta 92fs or M9, both are good service size autos, tough choice, I didn't vote, you have to make you own choice.

 

[olansky]

get a beretta i have small hands and i still love it

 

[DOOK]

I have a stainless 75b and an sp01. Love them both. Hit a 50 yd gong with the sp01 first time i shot a handgun.
I sold all my berettas because i didn't like the change in trigger pull from da to sa. My one and only nd was because of that.

I have not fired the CZ........yet! I am in love with the Beretta, though I can appreciate the CZ in stainless.

 

[graydog]

I have four CZ pistols and get to use a beretta anytime I want to. I say go for the CZ but that is just mt preference.

CZ pistols just look to werid fo me...but nothing actually "wrong" with them.

So, one of my gripes about the CZ is the small slide, [those big back sights come in handy for racking the slide when your hands are cold or wet], but just looking at some side by side pictures of the 75 and the 92 the serration part of the slide looks to be about the same, yes I know the slide on the 92 is bigger, but the serration area looks about the same size, anyone have both that they can do a good side by side with?

I have a discontinued Beretta 92FS Compact Made in Italy and a CZ SHadow.

I have not fired the Beretta in a very long time but the Shadow is more accurate than I can shoot.

Hands down IMO... my Italy 92FS Compact's fit, finish and build quality is a thousand times better than my CZ Shadow. As for comfort... right now my CZ fits my hands better. The trigger action... in stock form I feel the Beretta is better but after changing some springs in my Shadow, the Shadow's trigger is nice and light both single and double action.

Not sure about the USA made Beretta but the Italy made is sweet!
