I am looking into getting a new pistol around the middle of January.
I have a few possibilities already, Beretta 96, K-100, maybe a Glock.
However I saw the new CZ-USA catalog this week, and the CZ-97B in 45 caught my eye.
Has anyone here had any experience with this gun?
 
As per Deckard... The 97B is typical CZ... good handling, superior fit and
finish... handles the 45ACP cartridge well. Not for the small of grip though.
I had a chance to handle the Ruger 345 yesterday... long, heavy double action
with a long, fairly crisp single action trigger.
Decent grip size and angle.. awkward frame mounted decocker... seemed like
a decent deal at $540 used...

It is beefy. Best for medium to large hands. Larger than 75 in all dimensions. Fit and finish superior.

Of all of these, the K100 has the best ergonomics. I am very interested in the Ruger 345. Look into that as well.

yup, except I would say give the K100 about a year to see if any major problems develop.

As far as the CZ goes, any CZ is pretty damn good(If you dont mind slightly beefier gun which weighs abit more..)

if you get a Beretta I'd recommend one in 9mm or if really want a .40 get an Brigadier or Elite model (heavier slide)

as for CZ97 I heven't had a chance to play with one yet, but if I'll ever get a CZ it will either be a 97B or 75-sp-01.... I wish 97b was available in 10mm... :/
 
the 97b is a great pistol, it does have a large grip,which suits people with larger hands, wholesale sports sells tem for around 819
