CZ 75B or Jericho 941 in 9mm - take your pick

If you like the slightly lighter gun and don't care for the full length dustcover a CZ 85 Combat would be my choice over the 75B. Ambi controls and no firing pin block.

"Firing pin block", what exactly is this? What are the pros and cons of having this firing pin block? Is this something like the 1911 trigger safety between a series 70 and series 80?
CZ Shadow, CZ 75 and CZ 85C has no FPB. Allows for a nicer trigger pull & shorter trigger reset. The CZ 75B has the FPB (firing pin block). The FPB is a extra safety like the 80 series 1911's. The FPB is not necessary unless used as a duty gun, IMHO.
I really like my Jericho. Better trigger than any cz I've tried including the shadow. Everyone should own a cz style gun, and even though the finish is crap on the Jericho it is just as reliable as any cz, and being 2-300$ cheaper than a cz I will put up with the slide safety.
What about the Omega Trigger? I saw a 75B-9 with Omega trigger. Is this better than the original 75B?
Grip for both seems to fit smaller hands.
Who has the best deal for either pistol?
Jericho is around $ 600
75B seems to be in the $ 650s

ask your question in the action shooting section. Everyone here is a gun nutz, however only a couple that responded are ipsc production nutz.
my two cents.

I have to agree with the CZ lovers. I had my heart set on a Jericho for months now after handling a "Baby Eagle" a while back. I actually went to buy one at wholesale sports only to discover that the new Jericho's have a terrible "parkerized type" finish on them. I also found the decocker to be on a strange angle or something.
Looking at the cz SP-01 atm.

I've shot a couple of the Jerichos and it IS a nice gun.
But the ease of getting parts and accessories for the CZ is a HUGE plus. There's more holsters to choose from and magazines are easier to find.
If you look around I think you'll find that the Omega action isn't as nice as the old original style. And certainly there's more "trigger job" write ups for the oringinal action if you're a DIY type.
So all in all for all these reasons I'd say stay with CZ.

Magazines are the same
Holsters, that's a different issue but you can get decent ones for the Jericho from Zahal
