official word on the Compacts in .40?
Look for the CZ40B COMPACT.
I guess that is were they are putting their R&D funds.
so lets stick behind them and push that compact, hey!

nvrquit, The CZ75BD Compact carry is a factory melt down in .40S&W. Available Jan 2002. List price is $499 but that is MSRP and it should come in at around $439. The specs are as follows:
Steel frame and slide.

Barrel L is 3.9"
H is 5.0"
W (panel to panel) is 1.4"
Dry weight is 2.0lbs.
Trigger is traditional SA/DA with de-cocker.
Capacity is 10 rnds.
I will let you know when they hit the shelves.

As you can see, some people out there seem to have been given the impression that a compact .40 S&W is coming down the road. I asked Bohica where his info came from and this was the reply:
Nvvrquit, I own a very small gunshop in Western Ky. My info comes from the CZ rep for my area. I must warn you however that CZ had a huge snafu on the last "new" gun they introduced, the CZ110. Only about 70 made it stateside before they pulled the un-sold remainder back after deciding not to produce them for the American market. So what i'm saying is don't bet the farm on this horse. Thats why I was reluctant to go into detail. I'll keep you informed.
Bohica
Now, I'm not saying anything anyone has posted here is bull or wrong. It's just that like PC software, not everything that is promised/rumored allways comes to pass...
I just hope we get at least one of these things as a compact something!
Of course, it would be nice if Santa brought all the nice toys... compact CZ75BD, compact CZ40B, compact CZ97(in .45 ACP & 10mm!)... ahhh, to dream...

I gotta tell ya, I don't believe czub is interested in this market for anything other than unloading overuns, cancelled contracts and what they can't sell in Europe...
Post by: nvrquit on December 17, 2001, 08:18:41 PM
I can't vouch for the veracity of the response, I'm only posting what was posted.
As I posted, I only hope that one of the pistols shows as a compact. It doesn't matter to me which one, just as long as one of them shows up here on these shores!

(There is a MUCH bigger gun market in the US than in practically all the countries in Europe - combined... And recent increases in purchasing has shown that the market is NOT saturated.)
The fact that the 75B Military overrun sold out relatively quickly was probably a GOOD THING. It showed CZ that there is a market, here...

FN, SIG, and GLOCK pretty much have the market sewed up. It would be VERY difficult to compete with those guns (if for no other reason than they have the big buck to offer sweetheart deals on trade-ins, etc.)
Somewhere on the net there's a list of the various police departments (state and federal) and military units that use various guns. CZ is poorly represented, with hardly any military use noted -- even in the Czech Republic.
The US is a big market; arguably bigger in terms of REAL (as opposed to theoretical) potential, for CZ, in what CAN be sold, than most of Europe.
Now that CZ has begun to establish its reputation, look for some gradual price increases. (Its a sad fact of life, in the sale of "premium products," that a high price can often lead to greater customer satisfaction. The opposite argument, "if its cheap, it must not be as good...", also applies. CZ *will* eventually raise their prices a bit. From a business perspective, they'd be dumb not to...
(That's probably the reasoning behind a possible CZ-40B price increase.)

few years.
Some of you think that CZ-USA is a new company. I can see why people would
think so, but CZ-USA is well established and CZUB even more so.
CZs are still on of the few steel framed guns that people buy for defense.
and they Should make a Polymer gun..75 style. and a .357 SIG and a 10mm.
Also a CZ550 in .270 or .300 WSM, as short magnums are the 'in' thing .
But they look at the market for such on a World basis i guess.

The CZ110 was withdrawn from the American market due to liabily concerns,
nothing more.
Thoughts of lawsuits from stupid idiots with no sense of firearms safety and greedy lawyers made the
gun unavailable here...not some greater plan at CZ-USA to keep us from
the 110.
I'm assured that we are not missing much..no great advantage in trigger pulls,
travel.ect.
CZs are official issue in like 44 countries. i'm trying to get the list
