Title: So very happy now-CZ 100 by the wayside???
Post by: Unregistered(d) on November 04, 2002, 04:20:44 PM
Well I bought a CZ-100 3 weeks ago and got rid of it last  friday and what a relief. This gun is almost perfect except for the trigger pull that is soooooooooooooooooo
long it is totally ridiculous! So  I let it go for almost nothing and bought the best gun on the market a GLOCK.
no offense to you CZ 100 owners but the gun is useless to me and now I am relieved. Hope you all are enjoying your trigger pull on the new gun. Take care all!

Trolling for responses?

Glocks are good guns.   So are CZs.

The 100 isn't my favorite, but its a far better fit for most hands than a comparable Glock.  It clearly wasn't a better fit for you.   The ergonomics are great; the trigger is mediocre.

Did you buy yours without trying the trigger?!

Was just curious of the responses, but I did try the trigger and for some reason it didn't feel that long until i took it to the range and really found out how long it is. I realize cz are good guns, and I love CZ-100 way it feels and looks but the trigger pull so YES I have myself to blame.

I am considering the CZ100.  I have a Ruger KP95D, which is a great, unbelieveably reliable pistol, but it is big and I just don't like SA/DA.  I find myself carrying my wife's SW .38 Centennial and have mastered the DA trigger pull, but I would rather have a higher caliber and more cartridges at my disposal.  Is the CZ100 trigger like a DA revolver's?

Just qualified with my CZ100 for my CFP. All the hits were legit. I came from using a S&W .38 Special, so the trigger pull was not that much of an issue. It is long in the first pull, but that is the idea for safety. The trigger resets about 2/3 of the way back, and with practice, shoots just fine, in my opinion.

You all should really look into a trigger break, I installed one and the results were amazing.  I made mine from some black rubber and I carved it with a scalpel, It looks factory installed, and it works great. It wont do anything for the long trigger pull, but what it does at the break makes up a lot. You get better groups too.

You can also use a hard rubber eraser from an ink pen, glue it to the frame (or the back of the trigger) with "super glue."  and then shave it down with a razor blade until it stops the trigger JUST after the break.  Once you've got it on and working right, use a magic marker to color it so that it matches the rest of the gun.

(First saw this on the Kel-Tec Owner's Group website.  Called the "White Trigger Stop."  It made a world of difference with my P-11, too.)
