CZ 75 -good first pistol??

[GIXXER]

Shopping for my first pistol
Love the 1911 but thought 9mm might be better for the first one
Any thoughts good/ bad gun / piece of crap
Thanks

My first pistol was a CZ 75B and I have no regrets about choosing it. A 22 would be less expensive to shoot, but 9mm isn't overly pricey. CZs have a good reputation as being good value for the money.

Love mine (CZ75, likely from the mid 80s). Got it used in the summer and have not had any problems. Ergonomic design, nice trigger, shoots great. Had wanted one for a long time after seeing an older one with wooden grips that a friend had. Very pleased so far and likely will never part with it.

Lots of people like them, a good choice

There is always the option to get a 1911 in 9mm, but CZ is a good choice too.

good gun, but the stock trigger kind of sucks

It was my first centrefire pistol (after a few .22's).
I love the gun and find the trigger quite smooth (though mine is an original model and I did buy it used).

It's a nice gun, smooth SA trigger but a heavy heavy DA pull.

wonderful first handgun. It's my favourite still.
mine has now close to 17000 rounds. no hiccup.

Excellent choice. I have an old CZ 85 with the smoothest D/A trigger you can imagine. Check with Freedom Ventures on the Combat Sport. Personally I think the Tanfoglios are finished off just a bit nicer and come with adjustable sights. Same design with a few extras priced the same.

Take Care

Great guns! But the Baby eagle says "Desert Eagle" down the side!

I have an older CZ85 and although it wasn't my first pistol, it was my first center fire pistol. I still have it, still shoot it and I still like it. The only part I ever added was a new recoil spring.

It's OK to sell a gun as long as you replace it with two or more.

Bought my CZ75 new in 1981. Still in mint condition and one of my favorite pistols. Have never had a problem with it.

I got a CZ75 Kadet is on the way, factory built not a kit, with all matching
serial # ....... damn ATT is taking too long already ....

Get a CZ85 Combat if you want a 9mm. It has adjustable sites and full ambli-safety & slide release. And it's cheaper than the Tanfoglio clones!

Can't go wrong with a high quaility 1911 if you have your heart set on a .45ACP also.

One of the most sweet pistol. I love mine, a satin nickel 75B.
