Wanted a CZ for a long time...

[Rye_one]

The Reliable Gun sale doesn’t happen until this weekend. Price is $789.99.

A "Pre B" CZ75 was my first centrefire semi-auto back in the mid-1980s, and more recently I've owned an SP01 and a Shadow. They're comfortable, accurate, good looking, reliable, fun-to-shoot handguns (and reasonably priced, too). Those grips are quite stylish, too—are they VZs?

I picked up this Pre B last year for nostalgia's sake. The old sights are small, but it's still a pleasure to shoot.

Yes, VZs

Yes, VZs

Thought so. They're a little pricey but I really like their grips.

Congrats. I have a 75b Omega, and a P09. Love them both. I have, however, had thoughts of making a two tone. Pray tell, do you have any wood grips?

No wood grips, but that would look great!

Somebody said wood grips on a CZ?

 

[ambishooter]

Nice. I still bang my head when I missed a very nice Pre-B back in 2011.

Yes, VZs

Great looking grips. Nil styled pieces are the best. I went the ghetto Thai route again.

Eventhough I've traded in my 75b for a shadow 2, cause I shoot better with it, I still think the 75b is the best looking pistol ever! love them

Did you know that Pachmayr has grips on Amazon for ~$85?

 

[gwhysow]

I do now. Was looking for a pair of their laminates. Got these...and a full refund due to the air time.

 

[ambishooter]

I still want a Pre-B as long as it is reasonably priced.

 

[gwhysow]

There's a mint one....for $1200. Hahaha

 

[ambishooter]

That is cheaper than the one I saw for $ 1500 from a dealer near TO. 6 years ago, a shooter from our club sold his Pre-B for $250 with 4 mags. I saw his ad few mins after it was posted on the Club Bulletin Board. As I was about to ask him, another member sealed the deal. It did not last more than 5 mins. It was near new condition, less than 250 rds and almost no wear at all. Best trigger out of the box. The only not so good point is the dreaded hammer bite. Still on my bucket list though.

What is it? Never seen one like that.

It's a very early model of the CZ75 known as the "short slide" or "short rail" model ("short rail" is a more accurate description). The one above is a (costly!) modern reproduction.

My first handgun was a CZ 75B. Best combination or accuracy, price, and ergonomics at the time. Put over 4000 rounds through it and it’ll pretty much eat anything. After three years of shooting IPSC my pistol shooting skills are finally to the point where a better gun will make a difference so I’m going to be getting a Shadow 2 and a Grand Power X-Calibur (not sure which one to get first but I want both). There’ll always be a special place in my heart and gun safe for the good old 75B though. <3
