not really. they're standard tags. when you're making a post or a reply, look at the bottom left of your screen - scroll down if you have to. there's a box there that says "Posting Rules" and there's a link called "IMG code is On" - click on the IMG link and it shows how the various tags are used.
 
Hey thanx for helpin' out. I don't think I would have ever mustered the patience to figure that out. Hope the pics are usefull to anyone concidering one of these pistols.

As a follow up to my review. The trigger as stated is heavy like a tiger tank in DA. Sometimes when firing an empty gun in DA the trigger fails to "reset" completely, that is, I have to nudge it forward ever so slightly for it to "click" into place to refire the gun. This has never happened in SA, nor has it happened when firing live. I suspect the trigger sring is a little weak. Another reason to get a trigger job.

"Solid build, tight, decent finnish, cheap grips. Not a true CZ-85B copy as only the safety and not the slide lock is ambidextrous. Trigger pull is really heavy in DA, but fine in SA. This pistol could use a trigger job.

Out of the box it is quite an impressive shooter. I'm no IPSC guy but I can group pretty well under 15 meters. This shoots at least as well as my Glock 22. I did encounter one stopage. I believe the bullet snagged briefly on the feed ramp, then chambered but stayed slightly out of battery. I tapped the mag and racked the action and all was well. When I examined the ejected cartridge the bullet had a slight dent on the front. I chambered this and it fired without difficulty. I put 100 rounds through it in about 20 minutes.

At $350.00 this is a nice little pistol. I replaced the grips with butler creek's and intend on a trigger job. After that this will be a great gun. "
