So what's on your list now? I know Christmas is approaching and this can really put a dent in a gun budget, but...this will not last forever. If you are like me, and many are, there is always a next gun. I find this getting more and more difficult as I acquire the guns that I have wanted and get them to where I want them to be. I have been going back on forth on this for awhile. I have a CZ 75 Compact in matte stainless. It has been fully customized by Cajun Gun Works and it has been my EDC ever since. But this model has been discontinued and a part of me thinks I should make her into a safe queen to save the wear and tear. With this in mind I have thought about getting another compact in black and doing all of the same mods and using it for carry and saving the stainless. Then I think, crap I'm 53, what am I saving it for? So I think maybe a CZ 85 combat. They are hard to come by and , of course, very pricey. It wouldn't really fill a niche for me. I could use it as winter carry in a shoulder rig. But I do have guns that already fill that need. Then I think maybe a P07. That would be a great gun to have since my daily carry spends a bit too much time in the car. Can't carry at work so whatever I take with me stays in the car until I get off. I have had a couple P07 and they are nice but don't really blow my skirt up. Cajun is coming out with some aftermarket parts for them in the near future so I will probably keep this one on hold for awhile. I recently got a Smith model 36. I really like the gun but I am concerned about pocket carry because of the hammer. So I was thinking about a hammerless version and came upon the model 40. I didn't know Smiths had grip safeties. Then I did some research and learned they have been doing that for a long while. Anyway, those guns are pricey also. So I guess I will just keep on debating with myself. I would also like a 97B in .45acp. But that too can wait. So, I guess I will post my "current" list. What's yours?
CZ 85 Combat
S&W Model 40 or 49 or 640.
CZ 75 Compact
S&W Model 66 .357.
CZ P07
CZ 82.

Great topic BW!
Most of my recent purchases (Phontom, Rami, & Varment) were not planned - they just happened!
With that said, here is my list in order of importance:
1. SP01 (From CZC or CGW) Purchased April 2014
2. P-09 Purchased February 2014
3. P-07 Extended Barrel Purchased 2014 standard P-07 instead
4. DW Bobtail
5. 97B Purchased June 2014
6. Another 452 UL to keep in a box
-
I've got my eye on a used CZ 40P. Problem is they want about the same for it as some of the new CZ's. They won't budge, yet. So I guess I'd say I'd like a compact version of my SP-01 or some sort.
Although, that Springfield EMP 9mm sure has my attention!
Just went looking... here's one I'd love to have. CZ COMPACT L Black Manual Safety 9mm.
-
I just made my wife aware that I haven't gotten a gun in over a year.
My next gun purchase is most likely going to be a .22 for my boys, but I have a few on my want list:
Torn between a 97B and S&W 625
Really want a 97B in 10mm (CZ should have NEVER posted the prototype video!)
-
Here is mine
- Defensive pistol course. Probably the following:
http://badlandstactical.org/courses/defensive-handgun/
- CGW defensive carry package, grips and night sight for CZ75B Compact
These two are at the top of my list right now. Afterwards I would like to purchase the following:
- Full size CZ75B
- Ruger SP101
- Glock 20 Gen 4
-
CZ97 or SAR K245 or Witness45, FN45 or HK45, CZCustom Shadow or SP01 or 75 Omega, Ruger Redhawk 44mag or Taurus 44mag. Beretta CX9 or Keltec S2000 or a HiPoint 9mm carbine. A nice DA 22 revolver (probably a Taurus that wont break the bank). The Bersa Thunder Pro45 has always been intriguing and another 357 lever action would be nice. This could go on and on and on.........Dan Wesson 357 w/multiple barrels..........
-
Hopefully I can find a 75 Shadow T for a backup to my other one for USPSA next year. Also wouldn't mind a P-09 for HD.
-
P09 is also nice for the range. Its actually become my favorite gun.
-
P-09 FDE (or peanut butter as Stuart calls it)
Protek II has been splitting duty for home and carry. P-09 will get full time home duty.
CGW CZ 97 B "E"
I thought about DW Specialist, but I talked a friend into ordering a B"E" after his wife claimed rights to his Specialist. It only took one magazine to change my mind. 1911 will have to wait for a while.
Only problem with both will be the wait :(

-
Saving up for an EDC, hoping to get my hands on a Protek 2 or after I get used to shooting a .45 a DW Eco may be in order?
Oh my Christmas present to myself would be the full P-09 upgrade when schmeky has them ready :D
If no .45, then maybe a SP-01 as a project gun with CGW kits

The niche that's calling to me to be filled is a subcompact pocket pistol. At this time, the leading candidate is a Beretta 3032 Tomcat, but I could be tempted by a CZ 2075 RAMI. I fear, though, that a 2075 would prove to be less than ideal, too bulky, for routine pocket carry:
Pistol ? Estimated Volume (0.5?L?H?D), in3 ? Reduction Relative to CZ 75 Compact
CZ 75 Compact ? 26 ? 0%
CZ 82 and 83 ? 24 ? 8%
CZ 2075 RAMI ? 20 ? 23%
Beretta 3032 Tomcat ? 10 ? 62%.
I'm confident I could conceal the Beretta in any of my outfits, except my Speedos. For that, I need something even smaller to fit into a crotch holster:
(http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s272/lanceJOregon/guns/bush.jpg).
-
A Kadet Kit for the CZ 75 Compact (steel) and a life time supply of ammo for it!
-
I've been checking out small revolvers for a while, wanting something easily concealable and totally reliable for CC. The S&W 638 & 642 look like real possibilities but they are pretty hard to find these days. I was also considering a Taurus Model 85 but am not convinced of their build quality and reliability. I haven't discounted getting a small semiauto though, a 2075 RAMI would be nice but they cost a bit more than I want to spend. I read somebody's post here on this board earlier today and maybe an S&W M&P Shield 9mm is a good option for me too.
-
Ruger lcr 357 has got good reviews. Skookum. Speedos? Really? lol.
-
I am a CZ fanboy. Went to a FFL to pick up my latest Christmas present, a CZ-82 (thank you, laserdoc!) and saw my first SCCY.
Not much different in size from a CZ-82/83. For $300 new, might find one in a Christmas stocking near me!
-
My "Dream Sheet" only includes guns to play with. I don't buy lottery tickets, so dream sheets are just that:
1. Reloading and shooting a Customized Czechmate open class pistol.
-- Frame reduction for reduced grip size, weak hand thumb rest
-- Lowest possible custom frame mount, riding top center, high endlow profile holo Red dot, 8moa (?)
-- Appropriate holster and mag pouches
2. AR 15, 9mm carbine
-- Flat top, upper and lower (for light) tac rail
-- irons and high end holo, low mount 6moa (?) red dot
-- High end adjustable stock (magpul ?)
-- 4 mags
-
The next handgun I want is a 97b!
-
Wow, skook, no thanks for sharing. :D
-
Sccy. Been wondering about those. Heard they got the bugs out.
-
Better be SS if you're gonna carry it under your " moob" !!
Thanks OP for getting my wheels turning on another gun purchase! I'm going to have to say a 357 wheel gun w/6" barrel to replace my now safe queen Colt Python. Either a Ruger GP100, or a S&W
-
I have the gp100 6". Sweet shooter, and feels great in the hand. Wife says its top heavy and prefers the 4". That's fine. She can keep the 4". That 6" barrel is a beautiful gun. Definetly a keeper.
-
This is one of those times (seems to happen often) when my list greatly exceeds my available funds. So I spend time deciding on which way to go and end up losing opportunities. Oh well. ;D
-
a 97B would be quite awesome,
-
I feel your pain Birdsaway. I feel your pain.
-
I feel your pain Birdsaway. I feel your pain.
My GB watch list is always two pages at least. Doesn't seem to matter what the bank account says.
-
Well, I was hoping to get an SP-01 Shadow for HD. Unfortunately, wifey loves my Compact L which was going to be my EDC starting in April when Illinois starts issuing CCLs (hopefully).
I've started seriously looking at the Rami 2075. Little concerned about the thickness.
But I still want the SP-01. And the 97B. And a Dan Wesson bobtail. And. And. And.
-
Well... right after the holidays I plan to pick up a 75 compact manual safety that a friend of mine is graciously holding for me. After that I'm looking for a nice sks, possibly a glock (not because ii take pretty but because it's highly customizable and I am a tinkerer), and a 97b. If I can acquire all this over the next year then I will be more than happy.
-
You'll love that compact.
-

I highly, highly recommend the S&W 686.

More then welcome to try my 686-6!
-
Wanted this pistol for while, closest thing they offer in 9mm is the .380 vz 61
Scorpion. Should be here in a couple days
-
Fiance said "You got your CZ, now I get my Browning."
So I guess I'm getting a High Power next... if I can find one...
-
Current list is:
SP-01 in steel
S&W 686+ 4"
I don't know when I'll actually getting around to acquiring these lovelies. Just bought a Bersa Thunder 380 Plus (and a bunch of ammo) last month, so not in any great rush to buy a new gun so soon.
-
Just picked up my first CZ - a 75BD which I plan to carry...
Next up is another 75BD as a spare and Kadet 2 Kit if I can find one :-)
-
I would like to get a handgun exclusively for home defense. I have guns for target shooting and carrying.
A SP-01 Tactical would be nice with a light on the rail.
-
I am satisfied with the service size pistols I have in 9mm. So, my wantlist in no particular order:
P07
75 Compact B or D
G19 Gen 4
G26
S&W Shield
CW9
PT111 Millenium G2
-
I don't have a list...............
They just keep finding me so I must be on their list.......
-
I ruled out the Sig p238 as unnecessary for what it is although I've lusted for one for some time. Also ruled out the Walther ppk .22 .....just not necessary.
I have decided in other realms though that a dw pm9 is a must and a Browning 1911-22 or the A1 with the slightly longer barrel. Too bad about those sights though.
-
I will be adding a Shadow line compact and 2 tristar P120 series pistols to my lineup. I already have two trigger and hammer kits From Dave at Cajun Gun Works sitting here waiting to go in the P120's. If the Sar K2 in 10 mm hits our shores I will have to get one of those as well. The P120 are supposed to arrive about about the begging of the new year.
-

-
The only next gun I know for sure will be a Glock 19. Next after that would be harder to figure out: CZ75 in .40, 1911, Beretta 92fs/M9, Browning Hi Power, CZ83, CZ82, Ruger 22/45, or a Revolver of some sort. I don't even have money for the Glock so everything right now is just wishful thinking.
-
My list is on hold again also. Once I figure out how to quit hitting deer maybe I can buy a gun.
-
Next (on the way, actually) is a Kahr CW380 that I plan to use for daily carry in a back pocket holster.
-
Was going to be a new Shadow Custom, but had a money crisis and had to cancel.
But lo and behold the gun gods did shine down a side job for the Murphster....and allowed me a new addition to the family...
Pics to come ;D

move to Chicago. No deer up here in the city. Wait. What am I saying?? Scratch that. Nobody should move here. Everybody needs to run away screaming!
-
I've got a canik 55 9mm stingray chrome compact on the way. I'd also like a tangfolio witness .45 full size.
I just built an SP-01 with all the bells and whistles and its really nice, although I shot my SP-01 Shadow yesterday at IDPA.
I've also been working on a sig 938. It's a nice little piece with a terrible trigger. I put a stainless trigger on it and have been polishing the action and working on the springs. I've lowered the 9lb trigger to 5.5 and its getting smoother as well.
-
Twowheels. I also have a 938, but other than extended magz ive done nothing to it. For a close range, short barrel pistol Ive been impressed. And honestly as far as concealability, the little iron package is impressive (and reliable).
-
I love every gun I own............. But I sure would like to own a pocket pistol like an M&P Shield, or an XD-S, or a Sig P-238.
CZ 75b 9mm Omega
CZ 75b 40s&w
CZ 75bd PCR
EAA Witness 45acp
Springfield 1911 Range Officer
Ruger LCR 38
Ruger 22/45

Would really love the custom Compact L

Hey Googe... ever paid a visit to the burbs??? Man if they allowed deer hunting it would be heaven. Seriously the deer in the forest preserves around Chicago would shock most out of state hunters. You can walk or bike through the woods around here around sunset and pass within 10 to 30 feet of more Bucks and Does then the average hunter will see in a season. Drive down Higgins road past Bussie woods and it's common to see herds of 20 to 35 deer in the clearings just off the road.

Just keep an eye out for eastern massasauga rattlesnakes:

Believe it or not I do manage to get outside the city limits from time to time Artist! Parents are in Hinsdale and they have deer walking around in their backyard all the time.SIL is out in St. Charles; ditto. I used to spend a lot of time in the preserves and your right; they're loaded with deer. Never seen that scary looking rattlesnake though.
-
Never seen that scary looking rattlesnake though.
MI is said to have them to. I was born and raised there. Left when I was 19 and never saw one and did spend a lot of time in the boonies.
-
One nice thing about western WA ? no venomous snakes west of the Cascade crest. They must not like our winter monsoons.
I bleep near stepped on a prairie rattler in WY on two occasions. The first time the snake rattled as my foot was raised and poised to step on him. I have no idea how I did it, but in mid-stride I made a 180? turn and set a record for the 50-yd dash through the shrub-steppe terrain. The only reason I stopped was the realization that I might run into another snake.
Next time I find myself in prairie rattler habitat I will have my 75 Compact strapped on my hip and loaded with CCI pest control rounds with 53 gr of #12 shot.

Thinking of this snubby... Charter Arms Undercover .38 spl

Skookum, that eastern massasauga rattlesnake is one beautiful snake. I'm cool with vipers as long as they aren't sinking their fangs in my leg (or elsewhere) and wouldn't shoot one like a lot of guys unless it posed a serious risk to my family. In other words if he's in his area and not setting up shop in my back yard like a lot of southerners have to deal with on a regular basis. I've never seen any sort of viper in the Chicago area and I was born and raised here. My dad did see a copperhead in downtown Chicago when I was younger and when we would visit relatives in Ohio I did see copperheads, rattlers and water moccasins. I like and respect snakes, they have their place in the world, although I sometimes wonder if they really need that nasty of a venom as some of them possess.

Another 10mm would do my just fine 8)
Since I'm not a huge S&W fan, any of their offerings are out, even the 610 :-\
The DW Titan would be a great choice, if the Price wasn't so astronomical :o
BUT, if CZ ever gets off their behinds and make the 10mm 97 a reality, I'd be all over that ;)
-

I've seen three of the massasauga rattlesnake here in Michigan and they were all in S.E.MI around the rural Ann Arbor area. One of the Metro parks has signs for to watch out for them. Two of those previously mentioned I found in that metro park. Both were out in the open cut grass getting some rays on a hot summer day.

Since I'm not a huge S&W fan, any of their offerings are out, even the 610 :-\ Sadly, you probably couldn't get one if you wanted one. Smith discontinued the 610 a few years ago. Used ones are running around $1,100 right now. I had a line on a used 5", pre-lock 610 and once the guy found out what they were going for decided to keep it.
The DW Titan would be a great choice, if the Price wasn't so astronomical :o Agreed. The least expensive double stack option would probably be getting a Para 16-40 and have it reamed to 10mm. The only other one I can think of is the STI, and you are still looking at $2,500.
BUT, if CZ ever gets off their behinds and make the 10mm 97 a reality, I'd be all over that ;)
The demand for a 10mm 97B seems to be high, and I think it would sell well in the U.S. market. CZ's marketing strategy seems to be deciding inhouse what to make and if it sells, make more; if it doesn't sell, stop making it. They don't seem to be too concerned with outside input from customers or with what's selling in other markets. If they were, we'd have a 97 Compact and a single stack RAMI, too.

10 mm.....Mmmmm ! I owned an original Colt Delta Elite, sadly I sold it. The only gun I truly regret selling, and to think I purchased for $350. They're worth 3x that now!

Are 10mm handguns popular in Europe and other markets? Is ammo available there? Do the laws favor that caliber?
And, maybe there's the rub.
-
I didn't realize it but a S&W 442 was my "next gun". Picked it up last night. It was posted locally on another forum and the price kept falling. It finally reached the point that I could no longer resist. I have wanted a hammerless snubby and this one is very nice. I had no idea Smith made these in satin nickel. I thought the 642 was stainless and the 442 were always black. Shows what I know. Anyway, sometimes you don't really know what your next gun is.

Indeed! I had every intention of adding another Glock before my last range visit... On that visit I finally reached a breaking point with the ergonomics of that platform.
I went to the LGS and just held and manipulated every full size service pistol... without any selection bias, for a change. The CZ-75 was the most memorable and comfortable with the best trigger reach for my hand. I bought it on the spot.
This time I let my hands do the picking instead of being told what was best by the marketing monkeys :)
-
My "next gun" came as a bit of a surprise simply because I didn't want to get into another caliber hand gun, especially one where ammo cost on average $25.00/50 for ball but an associate had this one sitting in his safe unfired since the mid 80's and thought it time to give it up.

A Colt Government series 70. Not much history on the gun but after stripping,cleaning and oiling, and a box of target rounds through it, I quite impressed and very pleased with my purchase.
-
Nice buy Duppie. Everybody should buy at least one 1911. CZ 97. I want that DA 45acp.
-
Great find, Duppie! I've had my 1911 for a very long time and every time I shoot it, the love affair is rekindled.
-
Thank you Gentlemen. She's bone stock except for the aftermarket grips and I think I'll resist the urge to modify her as is my habit with my other firearms. This one I think will be left as is. I will, however find some period wooden grips, perhaps with a Colt logo.

SP-01 Shadow #2 is arriving from the good folks at CZ Custom next week where it will join #1, a 75B Stainless, and a Compact Shadow. That should put me in good shape, but an SP-01 bull barrel variant would get me to reach for my wallet :)
-
I started this thread a week ago and since then I have sold two guns and purchased two. Neither of which were on my list. :o Funny how things work out.
-
The next one will be a Smith Wesson 686 Competitor in March I hope.
-
I ruled out the Sig p238 as unnecessary for what it is although I've lusted for one for some time.
You already have a pocket pistol
No pocket pistol but a cz 83 with no worries. With the p238's history I just don't think I would carry it.
-
Mine were, to be delivered tomorrow by Buds gun shop, a CZP01 and a Bersa Thunder .380. Both of these guns I already own one of each. A CZ75b and a Bersa. I just got the 2 tone this time. Not that this is a Bersa site, but bang for buck, it's hard to beat a Bersa 380. Course.....so are CZ's.
-
Had a Bersa 22. Picky on ammo, but I should have kept it. Would not mind trying a 45 someday.

Can't vouch for any other caliber, but the Bersa Thunder .380 will feed rocks if it had a primer...NEVER, I MEAN never had a one problem with it. Takes anything you throw at it. Great little pocket banger!!!
-
CZ 75BD should be delivered to dealer tomorrow. Probably do the paperwork Tuesday and get her on Friday. Have wanted a 75 for a long time and finally decided to get one.
-
Probably an SP-01 unless they come out with an SP-02 with an omega trigger. Won't be for a while though. Need to get my reloading setup done first.

Going to wait until I'm at least shooting matches at A class level or higher in Prod...plus it gives me more time to personalize this particular piece.
But I am VERY EXCITE!!!

My Uncle had a TS right when they switched form being "IPSC Standard" to "Tactical Sport." He bought it from CZCustom, and it was amazing. Best trigger I've seen on any handgun outside of a S&W revolver. It's really the gun that got me into CZ's.

Light pull and very short reset. Just need some modified VZ diamondbacks, big magwell
A holster and mag extensions.
Can't decide whether I want the big magwell or the smaller IPSC version.
Excited about working up a major load for it. Loaded a few 180 gr Berry's for my buddy's G22. 4.7 n320 @1.135. Might shoot a few of those and see how they run.
Sorry for the highjack....we now return to your regularly scheduled hopes and dreams

Next gun..
I want to get a nice serviceable .357. Ruger GP-100 fits the bill in the ones I've handled.
The main thing is I have a Marlin 1894c in .357/38sp. Eats ammo, and I love it. Swimming in .38special in the safe, and I have snubby .38's. Just would like to fire off some of those .357 mag cartridges with a revolver.
Part of the wait is finance allocation needs. The primary reason is I am in that silent-awkward, "Honey, I got another gun recently...., but now I'm set. That may be the last one.." - stage.
I've had a few of those.
;)

Not a bad deal at all, in fact, an incredible deal! I will have to pay much more attention to Joe L's posts about the P-09. I know that I shouldn't clean it very often, right Joe?
Definitely will post pics and a report. But it is going to be a looooonnnnggg two months.
-
After seeing all the SP-01 pics lately I am really questioning my desire for a 75D Compact. .. I just realized that there is a Tactical version of the SP-01 that has a decocker... the choice gets harder :(
-

I'm now debating with myself between a P07, another Compact or possibly a P02.

Buy them all.

Buy them all.
Best. Advice. Ever.

-
Well, mine apparently was a P-06 bought here on the forums.....Didn't see that one coming.
-
Well, I just bought a RAMI and a Kadet, so I think my immediate CZ needs are filled right now. I think my "to buy" list goes as follows:
1. Ruger LCR
2. Pocket Pistol TBD
3. FNX-45
4. CZ-75B Matte Stainless
5. CZ P-01
-
Needs kind of get overtaken by wants from time to time. Especially with CZs.
-
waiting on a P-02 with the Omega trigger system,,,,havent seen much about this gun but was looking for a compact alloy frame with manual ambi safety and this fit the bill.Some have said this can be converted to a decocker so thats a added bonus.
-
Looking for a pre-owned Guardian.

KDog. I forgot that was omega trigger. Good buy.

Only the P07 and P09 can be converted. The 75 series Omega cannot.
-
Been on a Glock kick lately. Last two purchases were a G33 (new carry gun) and G17 Gen4 (new nightstand gun)
Next planned purchase is a 10mm Glock. Leaning toward the G20 Gen4, but still considering the G29 as I like camping and it would be easier to carry as a wilderness gun than the full framed G20.
-
After picking up a second 75BD and a Kadet kit as planned, I was surprised to come across a good deal on a tuned up Canik C-100 :)
I have yet to get it to the range but this was my first hands on with what CGW parts can do. Needless to say the 75BDs will certainly be upgraded now!
My next will likely be a SP-01 Shadow, after I sort out my long gun situation.
-
I am broke ... so it might just be a Nagant revolver since they are cheap.
-
Still trying to get the last one.
-
CZ97 will be next. If I am able to find one. Need to heal up a bit from Christmas expenses.
-
If I can get it cheap, I'd love to pick up a used Beretta Tomcat (.32 ACP). After my Christmas binge, I really can't afford to buy any more guns this year unless it's a dirt-cheap bargain I can't pass up.
-
I think a P09 will be next then a 97. My dealer is also getting me a Remington R51 to check out.
Doyle
-
Dang DRJ. You are getting 3 new guns. Well, even if you don't buy it, post pictures of that R51, and just out of curiosity, asking price. The P09 is definetly a good buy. Enjoy.
-
If the new Remington R-51 comes out, and the price and function is as stated; I'll want one for sure.
-
Same here 1Sow. That is one beautiful gun. If they do the same with the M53 (I think right nomenclature) in 45, I will eventually own 2 Remingtons. At least they will be on my wishlist :)
-

I'm on record as looking for a good CCW, before hearing about the R-51 I was leaning towards a Ruger LCR .357 but I sure do like the looks of the Remington.
-
Before buying my polished 75B I was also considering an R1 1911. I guess Remington has been out of the handgun game for a while but here lately they appear to be attacking that market with gusto.

My P-aught9 in FDE (from the Christmas give-away) either shipped today, or will ship tomorrow, from CZ-USA, so they may be available soon. I thought it would be the end of February until I would have it, but I got an e-mail from CZ-USA that it was ready to ship now.
-
I probably can't buy more than one this year, but I eventually want to pick up the following:
- P-07 "Duty" in OD green, if they get marked-down for clearance, to make room for the new redesigned P-07's this year.
- Ruger SR-40 as a home defense piece
- A modernized 1911. Not sure which one yet.
- A CZ 97BD... IF CZ-USA ever brings that 10mm slide (and magazines) to market!
And that's not including the bolt-action rifles, shotguns, and AR accessories that I'm itching for!
-
I bought a s.s. high polish CZ75B to finish out last yr and began this yr with the purchase of an M&P9C.
-
Just got a K2 45. Hoping around June for a simple black 75 b or bd.
-
For the first time I really have no idea. Now that virtually all of the upgrades are complete on my small stable of guns I find myself without a niche to fill. This is a very unusual place to find myself. Oh well, I will just keep shooting a lot and I'm sure some "need" will present itself.
-
I have a 75 SP 01 shadow on order from Matt Mink at Automatic Accuracy. Can't wait to get it.
-
My want list looks like this:
#1 CZ RAMI 9mm
#2 Ruger LCR-X .38
#3 Henry Mares Leg .45LC
-
I just picked up a Beretta 92FS from JG Sales, when they had them for $329. It was on my bucket list, as is the Sig P226. I figured my 75 pre B needed a friend.
-
P09 on the way! ;D
-

Both excellent choices. I have a cajunized P-01 that's a sweet shooter with the 16 round magazines in it. LOVE it.

A 2075 RAMI
XDS in 9mm
Some sort of a wheel gun
I know that last one is a little broad, lol. Still researching and deciding. Something in a SS .357 perhaps?

I'm stuck between an SP01 and a Beretta 92A1. Both are newer versions of classic pistols.....

I do not care for Beretta's that much, but I have been a CZ fan for a long time. After I shot my new SP01 today for the first time 2nd 19 rd mag and rapid fired at 25 yards all head shots about 5" group.

Definitely a P-09.

5" grouping head shots at 25 yards is very impressive.......
I own Beretta 92 and the CZ 75 and like them both. If I get a CZ SP01 I would like to have a decocker but they are scarce and more expensive than the Berettas.....

Finally purchased CZ 75 Tactical Sport in 9mm, found them more available now than before

I think he's saying his next handgun will be the SP01 Tactical. It's the decocker SP01. I don't think he was referencing your Tactical Sport.

My next hand gun, if California will still permit it when I have the money saved, will be a CZCustoms CZ75 SP-01 ACCU shadow! In lieu of my standard sp-01. My standard sales for $800 in CA, plus the $600+ to ship and have CZC do a competition legal action job. It just made since, save the few extra hundred bucks, sale the standard, and put it all towards a shadow! It'll be nice to have a shadow in my CZ collection.
-
My CZ70 in .32 is already on the way. Stupid weather has delayed delivery until tomorrow.
-
Just ordered a CZ75B Stainless in High Polish, so... that one. Going to make this a project gun, converting it to SAO with CGW parts and polishing up the internals to get as good of a trigger as possible.
-
Bought a slightly used Taurus PT709 Slim, in deference to the new and unavailable Reminton R1. It shoots very well for what it is and I like it.

Well, I won an auction for one of the aluminum frame Compacts last evening. I think these are Israeli surplus. I had been really eyeballing the GP-100s lately. I have also been folliwing a couple of older P07s on GB. I'd like to have one of the new models but if you can get a sweet deal on an older one why not? I have had a couple of them over the last few years and liked them okay. Now with upgrades available they should be even better. But now that is on hold while I get this compact up to speed. I finally got my pre-B mods completed and am now having extractor issues. So there goes a few more bucks. So, my gun list...
CZ P07
Ruger GP-100
and I still want a couple 82s or 83s. Not sure why, just want them. 8)

an alum framed Cz 75 compact? or a P-01? I love my compact, but it does have some heft to it.. You aren't the only one wanting a couple 82's and 83's.... lol
-
Yes an aluminum frame 75 compact. Not a P01 or PCR. I didn't know they made them until recently. I guess it was a one time contract with the Israelis. Anyway, they are starting to show up here as surplus guns. I have seen seven of them sell on GB lately. I finally snagged one.
-
next 2 are going to be Tristars, a T120 and a P120. Gotta have some new toys to play with and modify. I've finished my last 1911 project, so it's time to mess around with CZ style pistols again. ;)
-
I'm not buying anything else. I have bought three handguns in the last few months--a new Ruger 22/45, and two P-09s. And a rail for the GP100. And ammo. And parts to fix up the P-09s. And targets. And red dot sights for two guns and I need one more.
Every time I get the itch for another hand gun, I need to step back from the short guns and go shoot the AR-15 and the .308 Savage at 300 yards and get my head screwed back on straight. Or shoot the pistols at 100 yards. Maybe try 200? Nope. Then I'd want something with a barrel longer than 5" and I'd go buy another pistol.
I don't shoot what I have well enough yet to need another one. When we get the P-09s rung out, maybe something else. Until then, I sure am enjoying what I have!
Joe

?Z-75 Compact on order! ;)

Joe, as forum brethren, I should probably warn you that T/C Contenders and Encore pistols are even more addicting than CZ's! Especially when you consider that for just a few hundred bucks you can have a completely different cartridge in a completely different configuration. Almost anything you want from .17 rimfire to 500 S&W on the same frame. THEN you start getting to where you don't want standard cartridges anymore and only are interested in Wildcats.
Best to stay shooting what you are, my friend.
-
Same feeling here Joe. I want to get better with what I have. Warning you now. Don't touch a SAR K2 45. Not the same trigger as the P09 out of the box. Maybe better. Maybe not. Different in its own way, and no creep. Im not changing anything on it. Just got back from the range and the P09, the SAR and the Rami were both flawless. Again, I need to learn how to shoot them better. You Joe on the other hand, are the one I aim to be half as accurate as.
-
Something CZ compact, probably a PCR. Sure would like a 75 Compact alloy frame though.
-
I'm wanting a 9mm ankle gun, but not sure which one yet. Other than that, a CZ 40B.

They have been hit and miss on there. The good news is they are averaging between $300-$350 when they do sell. I think I have seen seven or eight different auctions. They stand out because they look like they have been drug behind a pickup truck through a gravel pit.
-
I would like to get a handgun exclusively for home defense. I have guns for target shooting and carrying.
A SP-01 Tactical would be nice with a light on the rail.
Well I settled on the 2014 P-07, home defense and range use.

I've officially started my saving for a CZCustoms ACCU Shadow! Will have to sale off my standard SP-01, but it'll be we'll worth it.

There is a queue??

Not sure if queue is the proper wording.. as its more giving my dealer the $$ and sitting back and attempt to patiently wait until something comes in.. just like I did to get my compact.. paid in full last November.. got it on tuesday.. from my understanding the SP-01 is a bit more difficult to come by, hence the possible date of September..

I've got a CZ 83 coming in the mail

Crossing one off my list!
Added to the family in Februray
Great topic BW!
Most of my recent purchases (Phontom, Rami, & Varment) were not planned - they just happened!
With that said, here is my list in order of importance:
1. SP01 (From CZC or CGW)
2. P-09
3. P-07 Extended Barrel
4. DW Bobtail
5. 97B
6. Another 452 UL to keep in a box

Ah, ok. That is what I've been doing too. Just wasn't sure if there was a way to get on a list for one :)

Only took me a few weeks to get a SP-01 from Damascus. You can send them an email to be notified when they get them in.

That is an option as well.. I just like to support my local guy, as tries to save me a buck or two..

I have a new itch. This always leads to acquisition in my case. I have been looking at the Burris Fastfire III. I think it would be pretty cool mounted on a 75 series that was fully customized. I don't really want to change my B or my transitional pre-B as they are set up just how I want them. I am thinking of getting an original Czechoslovakian pre-B as a dedicated host for the red dot. Unfortunately, I really know very little about these. I think the rear slide cut is the same as the B model and should work with the adapter. Anyone see an issue with this?
-
Just put new 1911 on my list.
-
Dan Wesson Pointman Nine unless I don't get a year end bonus, in which case, I will likely just have some work done on my 75 BD Police.

I have contemplated the same kind of thing but with a P-09 and an RMR...
Before I got into CZs I was on the verge of having the slide milled on one of my Glocks for just such a thing. I recently contacted Mark Housel at L&M Precision Gunworks (http://www.landmprecisiongunworks.com/) (he is well known for this kind of work in the Glock community) and he said he'd not done this to a P-09 yet but was willing to take a look to see how feasible it was.
Once I get a P-09 I will have him do just that :)
-
I'm sure a P-09 with one of those would be pretty cool. I really am not familiar with these optics enough to know which one to get...or whether to get one at all. It would just be for the range and I probably don't need another gun taking rounds away from my carry and competition guns.
-
I probably don't need another gun taking rounds away from my carry and competition guns.
One thing that slows down my acquisitions a bit is the reality check of knowing I won't be happy unless I Cajunize any CZ I get. That bumps a ~$500 gun up almost double including new sights.
Not that I'm complaining... I'm happier with my CZs than I've ever been with the other pistols I've owned.
-
Absolutely, although recently I have considered trying to find a bargain used one to leave stock for when new shooters try out my group. It might be nice to allow them to shoot a stock gun to compare to the custom ones. But yes, I am still awaiting the arrival of my alloy frame milsurp compact I won on GB. I have had the parts for a week already, lol.

David told me on the phone that I wouldn't believe the difference and, well, you know... I kind of took that as a bit of salesmanship :) I held back on sending my second 75BD in just so I could compare the two side by side and he was right - the difference is tremendous.
I've never really been a trigger snob but his parts are well on their way to making me one!
-
I am absolutely a trigger snob. I have tried a few other people's guns. You know, they try yours and you try theirs. I just don't really find it enjoyable like I used to. They don't understand why I would want to invest that much money on a gun and I don't understand what the point is of buying five or six mediocre guns when you could have one or two outstanding ones. Doesn't make sense to me.

Oh yeah, I totally get that. I have friends that are constantly chasing the hot gun of the month thing and I have been sharing my experiences migrating to CZ hoping they'll see the light, so to speak :)
-
Glock 9mm single stack (g42 size ) so I can get rid of the cm9.

Just tell them when you buy quality you only squawk once. And, a quality tuned CZ 75 is a bargain relative to any other I'm familiar with.
-
Most of the people I talk to are in the Glock crowd and think theirs is as good as you can get right out of the box. They are close-minded and that's okay with me. To each his own. I feel sorry for them never having a gun they could actually fall in love with.
-
I really need to stop for a while, focus on getting the guns I newly acquired tuned up just how I want and stock up on the necessary accessories for each first.
That said, I've got an itch for a wheel gun that came out of nowhere. I've never really been that excited by them, but lately I feel there's a big hole in my collection without a hand cannon. Not sure which one yet, looking at Ruger GP100 and SW 686 for now.
-
Must be something in the water. I have had a hankering for a GP100 but have been able to suppress it so far. We'll see how long that lasts.

I concur - I am the last person on earth to care about revolvers... but I'm starting to crave a GP100 myself. Weird! :)

Have 2 of them. Go great with my Rossi 357 lever action O0

For some reason, I've had a passive tendency towards a GP100, too. Very weird. ???

Ruger Revolvers
You can't ask for a more reliable Handgun 8)
-
I currently have a CZ912 shotgun on layaway. Then I have a list of pistols
1. Wiley clapp
2. 10mm of some sort ( short lost is tangfolio hunter or RIA 10mm tactical 2)
3. 1911-22
4. Another Sig P-229 in .357 sig this time
5. STI lawman
6. Sig P-227
7. Ruger super blackhawk
This is more or less in order for the next year or two depending on bonuses and side work.
-
I have a craving for a Russian Nagant revolver, and don't know how to make it go away :-[
-
Don't give in to the ruger desires.... The Wiley clapp 3" is fantastic. Just need a 4" now...
(http://i983.photobucket.com/albums/ae311/freakingstang/Guns/E9CE2AB4-36BF-434C-9A1F-A4C22B8D2366_zpslqvzs6gp.jpg) (http://s983.photobucket.com/user/freakingstang/media/Guns/E9CE2AB4-36BF-434C-9A1F-A4C22B8D2366_zpslqvzs6gp.jpg.html)
-
Freakingstang. I have the 6" stainless, the 4" black, and an sp101 3". Just picked up an 8"Dan Wesson. Havent shot it yet, but the trigger feels nice. Wiley Clapp is on the list if I can find one at the right time ($).
-
Man.... that GP100 looks sweet stang.... Good thing i work about a mile from Ruger and know some people that I can get a hook up from.... That GP100 just made it to the top of my short list.
-
I bought the SP101 in 327fm for my Wife
Has anyone shot the GP100 in 327 ?
-
Very very nice Rugers, Freakingstang!!! 8)
-
As much as I'm liking this new P07, my next one will most likely be a P09 in 9MM.
-
I saw a used gp100 and new P07 in 9 at my LGS if anyone wants wants more info, let me know.
-
I bought the SP101 in 327fm for my Wife
Has anyone shot the GP100 in 327 ?
Unfortunately no. It's a gun that was on my list but doesn't appear to be on Ruger's website anymore.
The Match Champion looks interesting enough, though. There's one at my LGS. I may have to look harder at it next time I'm in there. :)
-
Cabela's has a GP100 in .327fm:
http://www.cabelas.com/product/Ruger-GP-Fed-Mag/1424142.uts
And Bud's has a used one:
http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/411544650
If I didn't already have the SP101, and if HKS made a Speed Loader for it, I'd buy one
-
I've never had a Glock, never wanted one or even shot one. I decided I should see what the big deal was so I have a used Gen 3 Glock 23 on the way from CDNN. It was $379 listed as very good to excellent. I figure if I don't like it I can trade it off.
I'm pretty impressed with CDNN, I ordered about 4:15pm yesterday and had a Fedex tracking number by 6pm and it did ship. Tracking shows it in Memphis at 11:54 last night. I should have it Wednesday.

Good Luck Oreo
Never have been a fan of the Glock
I did (however) buy a G20 / 21 Frame to run on a MechTeck CCU to build my MG20-M4
Cool little Set-up:

Den,
Ever since you've posted pics of that MechTech conversion, I've been envious.
I wonder if you could use one of these instead of the Glock frame: http://www.lonewolfdist.com/Products.aspx?CAT=3168
I wonder if you would still have to call it a Glock...
-
You know James, since the only real change that could affect the fit is the Extended Beavertail
But I believe there is more than enough room back in that area to allow for it
Try messaging MechTech
http://www.mechtechsys.com/contact.php
Wonder why LW doesn't offer a G20 / 21, 10mm / 45 Frame ?
-
The RAMI BD which I just purchased from Buds.
-
97B Crossed off my list!
Great topic BW!
Most of my recent purchases (Phontom, Rami, & Varment) were not planned - they just happened!
With that said, here is my list in order of importance:
1. SP01 (From CZC or CGW)
2. P-09 Purchased February 2014
3. P-07 Extended Barrel Purchased 2014 standard P-07 instead
4. DW Bobtail
5. 97B
6. Another 452 UL to keep in a box
-
It was going to be an SP01, but I just got on an AK kick :o ;D
-
A RAMI BD (but I gotta get past this selling a house first...)
-
So I may change my top want from an SP01 to a Shadow.
-
I think my buddy is going to sell me his SP01 Tactical here in the near future. He is in love with his Cajunized 85B. The Tactical is also fully Cajunized and I will be most happy if I get to welcome it into my little family.

Been looking for a m&p .40 to turn into a limited gun.

I have had a .22 revolver at the top of my list for some time but hadn't decided what one I wanted. I stopped by my LGS today and they had 3 of the contenders in stock. The Ruger Bearcat was nice looking but felt like a toy, the S&W 317 had a nice feel but the fit and finish didn't equate to $750.00 so here is what came home with me.

I shot one of those pretty recently with the 22mag cylinder in it. It was a hoot to shoot. And it was a flamethrower!
Enjoy it!
-
Getting a little difficult to put a list together. Sometimes it is just the a deal that comes along that you can't pass up. Having said that:
97B
Shadow
another RAMI
More 82s (you really can't have too many).
Unicorn guns (pre-B compact, Masada, Semi-compact)
-
1911
Always wanted one. Just can't decide which one.
Right now, it's between Ruger SR1911, Para Expert, Rock Island Armory Tactical Model..........Or maybe a Kimber Custom II
-
Maybe I can make your decision easier. O0
(http://i59.tinypic.com/309im43.jpg)

I'm going to be a heretic here and say no new handguns. At least for now.
My safe is completely full and if I bought another, it would have to set on top of another pistol(not liking that) or sit outside the safe or I'd have to buy another safe.
I don't plan on selling any as of now but you never know. I got offered a Sig P229 LE trade in for my P09 but I eventually said no.
-
Dan Wesson 10mm Commander Classic Bobtail (If I can find one for a decent price)
-or-
Dan Wesson 10mm Razorback
-and-
Dan Wesson Stainless Valor
-
CZ75B compact 9mm...if only I could find one around here.
Just pretend this is witty.
-
I never know what might be next.
Just today I "won" an auction on GB for an ATI 1911 Military, NIB for $265.00 plus $35.00 shipping.
-
My next ended up being a Springfield XDs 9mm for summertime carry. So far I really like it for what it is. ..
My next next will hopefully be a PCR.

That there is the only downside to new CZs... although the end results justify any pain involved :)

It swaps out to a WMRF

It's know as a Super Single
As stated, it has both a Cylinder for the 22 lr and one for the 22wmr (Win Mag Rimfire)
Ruger has several Convertible Models
I have two; A Super Singe Six and the 9mm / .357 Mag
They also have the 45lc / 45acp and a 38-40 /10mm

Now I want a P-02... O0

So what's on your list now? I know Christmas is approaching and this can really put a dent in a gun budget, but...this will not last forever. If you are like me, and many are, there is always a next gun. I find this getting more and more difficult as I acquire the guns that I have wanted and get them to where I want them to be. I have been going back on forth on this for awhile. I have a CZ 75 Compact in matte stainless. It has been fully customized by Cajun Gun Works and it has been my EDC ever since. But this model has been discontinued and a part of me thinks I should make her into a safe queen to save the wear and tear. With this in mind I have thought about getting another compact in black and doing all of the same mods and using it for carry and saving the stainless. Then I think, crap I'm 53, what am I saving it for? So I think maybe a CZ 85 combat. They are hard to come by and , of course, very pricey. It wouldn't really fill a niche for me. I could use it as winter carry in a shoulder rig. But I do have guns that already fill that need. Then I think maybe a P07. That would be a great gun to have since my daily carry spends a bit too much time in the car. Can't carry at work so whatever I take with me stays in the car until I get off. I have had a couple P07 and they are nice but don't really blow my skirt up. Cajun is coming out with some aftermarket parts for them in the near future so I will probably keep this one on hold for awhile. I recently got a Smith model 36. I really like the gun but I am concerned about pocket carry because of the hammer. So I was thinking about a hammerless version and came upon the model 40. I didn't know Smiths had grip safeties. Then I did some research and learned they have been doing that for a long while. Anyway, those guns are pricey also. So I guess I will just keep on debating with myself. I would also like a 97B in .45acp. But that too can wait. So, I guess I will post my "current" list. What's yours?
CZ 85 Combat
S&W Model 40 or 49 or 640.
CZ 75 Compact
S&W Model 66 .357.
CZ P07
CZ 82.
Late to the party I know ...but I have my eye on a CZ 97B.
Love my CZ 75B in Brushed Stainless and the P-07 started it all.
-
No new handguns for me. Got a 22 bolt rifle two weeks ago...then a scope...then trigger parts...it never ends....but all is well. My biggest decision is "Which P-09 am I going to shoot well today? Bullseye version or game gun version?"
No, I'm not going to clean them.
Joe
-
PCR, P-01, then RAMI BD. In that order. Can't wait til the next shipment of PCR's hits the US.
-
My next is a PCR... Just waiting on the ship to come in.
After that an SP-01 Tactical or maybe a suppressor-ready P-09 if the slide can be milled for an RMR...
Then I will be after a vz.58 and a CZ shotgun.
-
I currently have a Glock G19, Ruger SR1911, Kahr CM9, and a CZ 75B SA. Next will be Beretta 92A1 followed by a Sig P226. Might have to wait a bit though since my stamp will be here soon so I can build my 10.5" SBR.
-
About 5 years ago I though I was done buying guns, but I always seem to find a reason for just one more. It really is a sickness. This site doesn't help much either. A year ago I didn't know what a Turkish gun was, now I have 2! The only thing left I had on my short list was a SW Shield and I found a deal on one this morning.
I have stopped looking for a CZ40B which means I will find a smoking deal on one and have to buy it. I won't want to but I have this sickness.
-
I'm currently eye-balling a S&W 624, 3" .44 special,,,, I'm not sure why,,,,, I just want it.
-
Nickel plated CZ-83 .380 (with IDF markings) once I hear back from the GunBroker seller
-
BP380CC then a BP40CC
-
After receiving my CGW Pro-Grade CZ P-09, I am definitely thinking about picking up its little brother, the CGW Pro-Grade CZ P-07. However, I just located a picture of a Beretta 92A1 customized by Wilson Combat and thought, "Man, I need one of those." I then continued to tell myself, "You know, it would be nice to have one since I used one in the service." I just wonder what the turn-around time is on the Wilson Combat modification packages that cost approximately $750. Then, I will need to determine if the Beretta 92A1 customized by Wilson Combat, would be a slicker handgun than CGW Pro-Grade P-07.

Hard to find a 97 these days. I've run across 1 (that was over-priced) at the last 3 shows. First time I've seen a vendor have the Elite Match in 9mm, .40 and 10mm and no .45 today. Sigs galore of course.

Have a new 2014 CZ P-07 on the way to join it's older 2013 Duty brother, and strongly considering pulling the trigger on a Grand Power P1 Mk7 (or new Mk12 variant).

At the prices of the GPs right now is an awesome deal. Having owned the p07 1st gen, and recently the 07/extended barrel... For me I prefer the GP

My hope is to find a DW pointman nine and put it on layaway to get for my birthday in the fall. My wife likes to have a reason.

Good plan. Every man needs a helpmate to keep things in balance. Now you get to enjoy the anticipation.
-
I went shooting with one of sons today. There is nothing better than shooting with one of your offspring. I just wish I could get my wife interested.
Anyway, I was shooting my P-07. I just can't believe how great it shoots for a compact polymer pistol.
It shoots better than some other manufacturers metal and alloy framed pistols. I might just have to get a P-09 and round out my stable of CZs. Then maybe a Shadow of some kind.
As of now I own a 75BD, PCR, P-01, RAMI BD, P-07 & a 452 Military Trainer in CZs.
-
Fireman jones, consider the tactical sport. I can't tell you how great it is. The P07 was my favorite before, hands down, but believe me the TS is SWEEEEEET. Very light trigger, very accurate...
-
Chumley, that is a mighty big gun. How is the grip compared to the 75s? It has my attention,I am doing some research on it.
-
I've only shot other shooters Tac Sport, but:
Note I have small hands
The grip is bigger but that SA trigger is right there for my short finger. Shot great.
-
I am hoping to locate one in my travels to see if it fit my hand. What are you shooting instead of the TS?
-
I am shooting it on Sunday so I will write more after that. My hand is 7 inches long and trigger finger is three. I don't know how that compares to you. Let me pull my 75 bd and the TS out of the safe and I will try to describe how they differ.
-
I already (verbally) landed a LC380
A guy had it listed locally. An LC380 with crimson trace laser (not the lasermax version). For 350.00
Since it is not on the California "approved handgun" roster anymore, the only way to buy one is through an in-state face to face transaction (between two commi-residents). In other words, the seller must be a California resident and be present at the LGS to complete the transaction with the buyer.
The seller says he purchased the gun this year. 50 rounds through the pipe. He wants an LC9. That's the reason he said he's sellin'.
I verbally approved we meet tomorrow.
Gun comes with 200 rounds ball ammo, 3 mags and that's it.
Your opinion of the LC380? Never had one.
Good deal? fair? not worth it?
-
I personally am not impressed with the lc380 or lc9. I have owned an LCP and shot the lc380 and and lc9 and I could not get a good feel for any of them. Though the bigger lc380 was a bit bigger and nicer, I still think its make for a nice pocket pistol. it has some nice features and much better sights than the lcp but I still didn't like the trigger pull, or the general feel of the gun. to each his own though. as far as how its made, they have a nice fit and finish for the price. The crimson trace laser is nicer than the lasermax for sure and that seems like a really good price with all the extras.
-

My baby: 9mm, DA/SA CZ 75 Shadow Custom, Hajo Rear sight , most the goodies plus the CGW Short Reset Disco. Production class pistol.
Like.
-
Gottmituns: I like shooting 9mm better, .380 is very snappy. I have a PP and a PPK/S. It is almost like shooting .40, that is probably why the seller is going to the 9mm.
-
I have owned an LCP and shot the lc380 and and lc9 and I could not get a good feel for any of them.
I loved my lc9 with crimson trace right up until I shot it the first time. It felt so awkward to me that I sold it to a friend after that first range trip.

I think you got a good deal. Let us know how it shoots. The LC380 has the tilting barrel versus straight blowback. You will find it sweet to shoot, I think.

Same thing with my Kahr CM9! That thing had 60 rounds through it. Maybe. It was not a pleasure to shoot. I really did like the trigger on it, but I think a RAMI BD is eventually going to replace it for summer CC. I have been open carrying all year, so no need for a tiny gun.

I carried a PPS for a couple of years. It was a fine gun but too small and I never enjoyed shooting it. I sold it and replaced it with a RAMI.

What is it like to open carry? What state are you in? Does it cause any disturbance or reaction? Just curious.
-
Chumley, that Tactical Sport you recommended is big and expensive. I do not shoot in competition. I don't know if I could justify that expense. I am still thinking of the P-09, Cajunized of course, then maybe an 85 Combat or Shadow, but that is just a thought at this time. Right now I am enjoying my 75 BD that is fully Cajunized.

I live in North Carolina where open carry is firmly protected in out state constitution, and has been upheld by several state supreme court and federal court rulings. Its awesome.
I was very hesitant at first, but no one bats an eye at it here. The only reactions I have ever gotten are a thumbs up or a wink from other pro-2A types. God Bless the South!
CC is another story entirely. Some of the counties make it a pain in the but, and its not cheap. I have a FL non-resident, mainly because I didn't have to take a course, just submit military marksmanship records. That saved me close to $100.
But I prefer to open carry to combat the insanity in the media over responsible firearms ownership, and I would hope I have encouraged someone just by seeing me carry. I especially make it a point to open carry when my kids are with me.

CZ75B compact 9mm...if only I could find one around here.
Just pretend this is witty.
Oops. Just put a P-01 on layaway. I lied.

I already (verbally) landed a LC380
A guy had it listed locally. An LC380 with crimson trace laser (not the lasermax version). For 350.00
Since it is not on the California "approved handgun" roster anymore, the only way to buy one is through an in-state face to face transaction (between two commi-residents). In other words, the seller must be a California resident and be present at the LGS to complete the transaction with the buyer.
The seller says he purchased the gun this year. 50 rounds through the pipe. He wants an LC9. That's the reason he said he's sellin'.
I verbally approved we meet tomorrow.
Gun comes with 200 rounds ball ammo, 3 mags and that's it.
Your opinion of the LC380? Never had one.
Good deal? fair? not worth it?
Seems reasonable considering the price of a new Crimson Trace equipped LC380 and 4 boxes of .380.

Chumley, that Tactical Sport you recommended is big and expensive. I do not shoot in competition. I don't know if I could justify that expense. I am still thinking of the P-09, Cajunized of course, then maybe an 85 Combat or Shadow, but that is just a thought at this time. Right now I am enjoying my 75 BD that is fully Cajunized.
You are correct on all counts, it is a little over a half pound heavier....longer overall length and barrel length, bigger mag as well. Cost is more, but not terribly more after you do the modifications....consider what your total cost was on the 75BD after wood grips and CGW work was. Probably close to $1000? I don't shoot in competition, but maybe someday if I have the time, energy and confidence. Don't think I will be any better than the worst, but I think it would be a good experience. For now I just love shooting at the range. If you ever do get a chance to try the TS, let me know what you think.
-
I would love to shoot one and a Shadow Custom that 1SOW has, but I do not know other CZ owners around here in Palm Beach County or surrounding areas.
Does anyone know how those two guns compare? Maybe I will save and purchase one of those instead of a P-09. We'll see.....

Back from the range. Wife came with and shot with me today for Father's Day..her present to me. She shot her 22 Ruger Single Ten and one shot from the P07. Didn't like the kick.
Fireman jones, I told you I would compare the tactical sport to the 75 BD, but darnit, I left the 75 bd at home, though I did have the P07 Duty and Rami BD. The TS is still my favorite. yes, heavier and a VERY light trigger, but it is more accurate and easy to shoot. I am not saying either of the other two are bad at all. When I got home I took these pictures to compare the 75 to the TS. Hope it helps.

Thanks for taking the time and taking those pictures. Your 75 BD has checkered front and back straps. Nice.
I enjoy shooting my 75 BD fully Cajunized, from springs to hammer, 85 Compact trigger with the two screws, disco and complete polishing. I guess I really can't do much better for the money.
I'll have to wait till Shoot Straight gets a TS in to handle.
-
Holding the 75 BD in my hand and describing the difference between it and the TS is easier to describe once you see the pictures. I would say the TS is at the very limit of my hand size. The trigger as well. The 75 is a smaller grip, so more comfortable/natural and the trigger a bit more natural. Until you see them side by side, one does not appreciate the difference. On my next trip to the range, I am going to limit it to two handguns, these two.

Does an Air Gun Count ?
I ordered a new Crosman 1377 along with a Crosman 1399 Custom Shoulder Stock 8)
The (1200fps) Nitro Venom is just too much for those darned lil micies gettin' into the Bird Feed :o
With an advertised 600 fps @ 10 pumps, I figure with a range of 3 - 10 pumps per Shot, I can dial-in the power needed to dispatch one of the little beggars
Got the new Crosman 1377/99 "Carbine" today (20 June)
Flipped the Rear Sight to the Peep and popped my "Gong" at 20 yards, first Shot out on the Box
I'm lovin' the accuracy of this little number
I have a feeling, I'll be shooting it a lot

Nice GP100! Use to be my go to hiking gun - Fond memories.

Alrighty now!
I just purchased a P-09 FDE. CZ pistol #6.
I am going to fully Cajunize this like I did with my 75 BD. Get ready for another order David! This is going to be another target gun for my steel targets. I will be retired on October 1 and will be spending more time in WNC shooting off my deck. I can't wait!!!!!!

What's Your Next Handgun?
I'm sincerely hoping it's a fully functional smooth running Remington R-51---N.L.T. 5 wks and one day from now!
Then an IWB holster and two more mags.
After that, a flat top 9mm carbine with irons, cowitnessed with a Burris R.D., If it would run with CZ mags I'd cry tears of joy. ;D
if I win one a contest somewhere. ::)
-
We have quite a few members here in the Old North State! We should plan a CZ shoot sometime!
As Bill or Ted might say, that would be most excellent :)

400 bucks: came with 3 mags, the laser and 200 rounds ammo.

Yay!! I finally found that PCR I've been looking for... snagged one for a great price from KY Gun Co tonight :)
As soon as it arrives I will make a decision on whether to replace the sights with my usual (1mm fiber optic front with CZ-USA tactical rear) or just to replace the front and black out the stock rear with a sharpie... Then it is off to CGW for "the treatment" :)
-

You won't be disappointed! I love my PCR! :D
For my next handgun, I'm debating on an SR9c or MP9 (still thinking about a Glock 19 though). If my wife has a say she wants me to get a S&W 686 or a Rossi 357 with the 4" barrel. No matter what I think it will be a win/win! ;D

I am quite excited ... I really liked the Canik C-100 I had CGW work over - I just couldn't make peace with the manual safety. I fully expect the PCR to be my favorite for the foreseeable future :)

I wish I could find a 4" .357 revolver that felt natural in my hand. Everything I've tried just feels totally awkward. I guess I'm just not a revolver guy...
For polymer I do like the P-07/P-09 (although the controls feel a little odd to me) but I am also very intrigued by the H&K45 and the FNH FNX-9, both with the combination decocker/safety. I may take the plunge with one or the other at some point just to see if my current aversion to polymer is really leftover dissatisfaction from my Glock/M&P days.

In my experience the P07 was a totally different feel from the Glock/M&P.

I'm thinking about a commander size all steel 1911 in 45. Springfield has an RO coming out soon that should fit the bill; I've got a parkerized loaded that I've worked over and its wonderful. But, does anyone have any experience with the ruger 1911 cmdr? It might fit the bill.
-
I was really close to getting the SR1911 CMD this past weekend. If I had the extra money, that's what I'd get right now.
-
I have also been thinking about a commander sized 1911. I just don't think I have nearly enough CZs yet. ;D
...very undergunned.
-
I am trying to decided between an Accu-Shadow with hand fitted match grade barrel from CZC or their CTS in .40. That decision will pull me from USPSA Production (currently shooting a SP-01 Shadow from CZC) into Limited. I would guess once I handle a CTS it will be a quick decision. ;)
I also want a Pro-Tek 1 for carry. I would also like to have a couple CZ P-01 with tactical light. One for my car and one for my wife's. 8)

I would love a Commander-sized 9mm 1911 ... but the price tag for a nice (e.g. truly reliable) one is out of my range right now, especially given that I doubt it would bump my current (or forthcoming) carry gun out of my holster. ;)

I'll take a look at them. I have to confess however I'm not all that impressed with Remington's QC of late. Are they series 70 configuration? Forged frame? ( I know the ruger is not).
I'd really like to get a Dan Wesson V Bob. I almost had a trade for one lined up but the guy changes his mind at the last minute.

As I understand the frame is cast and it is a series 80 configuration...

I have one and it's fullsize brother. I cannot think of a reason why I would not trust this pistol as it has performed very well every time I've had it to the range. I have been known to carry this one and the fullsize SR1911, too.

I have the full size SR1911 and love it. I've shot the CMD version a few times and that is definitely on my "Must buy one of these" list. Some of the online dealers have offered really good prices.
Something to note - the SR1911 is a Series 70 configuration.

Thanks all I would only consider series 70.

My last purchase was the "new" CZ P07. I am having a good time getting to know her and have no complaints. At about 90 yards I was getting very close to a soda can with Winchester Ranger 124 gr. ammo, but didn't hit it until I used a buddy's scoped 17 HR rifle. The next purchase on my mind is a S&W Shield 9mm. The Shield (and the P07) knocked the S&W M&P 9c off the top spot after I had a chance to fire one last Wednesday. Besides, the Shield is easier to carry on these hot summer, shorts and a tee wearing days. ;)

That would be a nice gun. I would like to get a 7.62 x 25 one day.

I went shooting today to test my new P-09 that I Cajunized(perfect) and came home with this S&W model 19-3 for $279.00 from Shoot Straight, WPB. The grip were mine already, it came with some cheap rubber grips.
(http://i1302.photobucket.com/albums/ag131/firemanjones1/ad40179995d2c1743beb415b0c71200d_zps48e5df0c.jpg)
-
Nice find, FMJ.
-
Thanks Birds. Ever since I purchased a Model 10 from Buds for $243.00 as a police trade-in from Australia. , I have been looking for a S&W .357.
It has taken a few years but I finally found it at the right price! This is even in better shape than the Model 10.
I open carry on my property and immediate area in Western North Carolina and will feel much safer in case I come across large animals.
I don't mind that it is only the K frame since I won't be shooting .357s a lot. I will mainly shoot 38 Specials for target and because of the cost for .357. This will be more of a defensive gun and the Model 10 for target and plinking.

Got the email from the LGS today, picking up the new P-01 in the am! Now to find a PCR local.

Mailing my final payment today for my DWPointman nine. Should have it by next weekend.

I've always thought cz's were really great guns but never owned one. I'm a pocket pistol freak (especially dao's) and stumbled across the 45 25acp and the 36. for sale the other day on gun b. I Didn't buy it (it was going to be $545 (40 for shipping and $45 ffl plus $450 for the gun) but now I'm hooked and got to have one. Anybody have any search ideas? One question I have that someone might help with is "Are these guns legal to have in the U.S?" Thanks so much.

Still looking for a good buy on a CZ 97B.
I have seen a few on GB but I really want to see one and hold it before I buy.
Going to check out the local gun shows first.
Really getting in .45 Cal after enjoying 9mm for so long.
-
The 97B will not disappoint shooting wise. But it is a large heavy gun. It was the most accurate .45 I have ever experienced.
-
Sometimes my next handgun picks me. ;D
-
SP01 Checked Off!
Just like Birds Away said - it kinda picked me when. It happened just like the trade for my Sig P226 Scorpion!
Great topic BW!
Most of my recent purchases (Phontom, Rami, & Varment) were not planned - they just happened!
With that said, here is my list in order of importance:
1. SP01 Cajunized
2. P-09 Purchased February 2014
3. P-07 Extended Barrel Purchased 2014 standard P-07 instead
4. DW Bobtail
5. 97B
6. Another 452 UL to keep in a box
-
Picked up the Grand Power P1 Mk7 (pretty big write up w/lots of pics in General Discussion). Very nice pistol, but I fear that it's trigger is going to make me save up the money and spring for some CGW Mods to my P-07. I love the Omega Trigger system, but the GP trigger is just WOW!!!
I also have a new 2014 P-07 on layaway. Hey FiremanJones, if I can ever get down your way I will let you check out this GP brother. When I am not out working, driving cross country I call Jacksonville home lol.
-
Cyanide, sounds wonderful!

Now that I have the CZs that I craved for, maybe I'll start saving for the new DW 715 that is coming out.

Ok,
Time to revise things this is my next purchase picked it up this morning.
Guess I will be selling the blue one.
Got a nice price and decent condition, it had a couple of spots on it.
But it was nothing that a little 320 grit foam sanding pad could not fix.
I polished the action cleaned it up and now I should go play!

:-) I just placed a bid on the 9mm version myself. I missed out on the last bit of stock at Damascus :(
I was briefly tempted by the idea of a Beretta 92A1 full-size or compact with Wilson Combat upgrades but in the end I felt like the ergos just weren't there. Nothing touches CZ for me in that respect!
-
I thought of getting a Tactical at one point, but they are heavy and bulky almost like a Beretta. I am content with what I now have. Besides my 75BD & P-09 are perfect for me for target shooting. I think the next handgun will be a stainless PCR(if CZ makes one in the future), a stainless 75 BD(if it is ever made) or a stainless revolver.

Given the role of this gun I don't mind a little extra bulk overall. The Beretta, though.... just felt way too big in my hand (and I have big hands) whereas the CZ grip just melts. I found the controls on the Beretta awkward too - I don't have to shift my grip at all on my 75BD but had to fidget a bit to decock and drop mags on the Beretta.
Plus the Beretta just ended up looking weird to me LOL
Now... a matte stainless PCR would be... ooooohhh... ;-)

Plus the Beretta just ended up looking weird to me LOL
Now... a matte stainless PCR would be... ooooohhh... ;-)
I felt the same way about the Berettas after I purchased my first CZ, a 75BD. I never liked the position of the decocker.
I have six CZ pistols now and sold off three Berettas and contemplating selling another one
-
I've divested myself of all things 9mm with the exception of my P01 and my SP01 Tactical. I already have the CZ 75 Compact .40 so I guess I need the .40 SP01 Tactical to fill the gap. ;D Well, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I still have a CZ Rami BD at the top of my list for when I can find one but last week I ran into a Sig P232 and couldn't pass it up.

Nice one Whaler.
Here's mine. I think I like the stainless slide best.

I like those pistols a lot. unfortunately.... The last time I shot one I got two little nice cuts on the web of my hand from the slide. I guess I just have to high of a hold for those... and too big of a hand.
My Browning High power give me some nasty hammer bite too... I shot one mag through it and that was it last time I went out.
-
I'm thinking about getting a rami long slide and a Cz 75 short? :) well getting both and swapping slides. I'm guessing the 75 frame will need chopped from what I've been told. Might work....only one way to find out
-
Picking up my Dan Wesson Pointman Nine tomorrow afternoon. Hope to get it cleaned and out to the range this weekend!
-
Not a handgun, but I want a KelTek sub2000. I just don't want to pay to much for it.
-
Today I met my next handgun and it came home with me.
A CZ 97B. I went to a gun show in Texas and found one (1) just one in the entire show. I had been looking for over a month and even bid on one on GB. But once I got my hands on one ..... I couldn't give it back. Tomorrow, the range!
Oh, it was at $707 with everything included including sales tax.
-
Not bad Guera. Congratulations.
-
Picked up the Dan Wesson pointman nine yesterday. spent about two hours cleaning and getting to know her. When they say tight tolerances, they mean it! I applied Miltec 1 with heat and the Miltec lube in the rails. Had a tough time getting the slide stop back in. I never field stripped a 1911 style gun with barrel bushing so it was something new to learn or had a gun with barrel lug I think they call it. I hope to go shoot her tomorrow. They recommend you clean and relub every 50 rounds for the first 500 rounds. The manual also said to expect jams and such during the break in period. We will have to see.
-
Good luck with it, I hope everything works out.
I would like a Dan Wesson, but a revolver.
-
Nice pick up!
They are extremely well built.
Enjoy. ;)
-
Thanks.
Fireman jones, I will take comparison photos tomorrow and post pics of the 75BD, TS and the DW. I am real interested in comparing the three.
-
Just got back from the range. Comparing the three guns I mentioned before, here are my thoughts. I was equally good/bad on all three. I would say the 75BD was probably the most recoil. The tactical sports had the lightest trigger which was good and bad as you have to real careful or I would have double taps unintentionally. The new gun is the Dan Wesson Pointman Nine. I had multiple jams, though they warn you that is very normal during breakin. You can tell the slide drags and the jams were normally the first one out of the mag. The black on black site on the TS is hard for me to target on a black silhouette. I really prefer the singles stack on the DW. The grip on the TS is a handful. The overall feel of a gun in your hand goes to the CZ 75. The main thing I did not care for on the DW was the any times the case was ejected into my face and shirt. Why does that happen? The trigger on the DW was very crisp.
-
Here are the three guns,the CZ75BD Police is in the middle, the Dan Wesson Pointman Nine on the right , and the CZ Tactical Sport on the left on the top two pics.

Yeah, the 715 looks sweet! If you get one , let me know. I really like revolvers. My first one was a used Ruger Security Six.
-
My first revolver was a 6" stainless .357 Securiyy Six. I whish I still had it. Oh well, I like your 75BD Police.
-
I hope to acquire an SP01 Tactical in 40SW next year. I plan on fully smoothing and customizing it to match my 9mm version. We'll see how the finances work out when the time comes.
Cheers,
Toby

Well, this is CZ that followed me home on Saturday. Went to the range last night and it found the bull's eye at 10 yards (actually, about the size of my fist) for the first clip ( I mean MAGAZINE).
That makes 3 CZs for me.
P-07
75B in Brushed Stainless
and
the 97B above.
Any recommendations on a holster for the 97B?
Why Yes, I intend to carry it ..... sometimes!
(Yahoo ....finally figured out how to post a photo!)
-
Very nice hrdguera,
Are those aluminum grips?
-
Very nice hrdguera,
Are those aluminum grips?
Yes, very thin aluminum. They make the pistol feel very 1911 / 75B. I was surprised at how a double-stack feels so tight and narrow in my hand compared to my other favorite 45, the Sig P227.
Anyone ever have any trouble with the threads in the barrel bushing? I want to put a light coat of something on them to protect the threads from heat and debris. Any suggestions?

(actually, about the size of my fist) for the first CLIP.

No new handguns for a while, but I think I'm going to Cajunize my D PCR sometime in the next few months.

Humor expected and appreciated. After all, there isn't much humor in the News these days.
It is a "sweet" pistol. Really does feel amazingly like the 75B. Love the grooves on top. They seem to help with line of sight.

Hrdguera,
Nice 97B.
I want to get one of those someday, kind of delayed that idea when I got the Dan Wesson 715 this month.

Faxed in an order for an 85 Combat, but CZ USA offices are closed till the 4th of August, so they can't process it till then :'(
-
Either another P 07 or either a Glock 19, Walther PPQ , HK vp9 or Beretta 84 depending on how my physical recovery from the accident goes.

Ruger SP101. A 3" showed up and I had to have it.

Beautiful. I put Hogue grips on mine, and it just feels awesome. Bring it up to fire, and the sight alignment is already right on. Wish it held 15 rounds. I would carry it ALL the time (sorry CZ). The absolutely best feeling gun in my hand.......I guess you could surmise that I like the 3" SP101 ::)
-
That is a VERY nice revolver.
I have been considering some older revolvers but don't really know what a good value is. After having work done on my 686, I really want another wheel gun but don't know what direction to turn.
-
Before I got the Gun I thought about the Hogues, but the stock grips feel pretty good. On your recommendation I may pick up the Hogue, Midway has them on sale.

I have them on both of my SP101s and can't argue the great feel, lower Felt Recoil and (to me) better Recoil control
-
97B! Found it today and put it on layaway. Can't wait to get it home with my P-07.
-
If you fire full power loads in the SP 101 you will appreciate the comfort and control the Hogue grips give you. These are great little guns. The perfect camping companion...at least in the Midwest.
-
97B! Found it today and put it on layaway. Can't wait to get it home with my P-07.
I know the feeling.
Only I put a CZ 75B between them.
Every day I have to decide which one to carry.
Yes, I carry the 97B sometimes! I carry it in a Galco Jak-Slide 228 that I saddle soaped to damp and shaped to fit the 97B.
Yes, I covered the 97B with plastic wrap while the leather dried.
It took some work but was worth it.
When winter comes I will find a under the arm holster for the 97B that will fit nicely under my jacket.
But that is only a short time here in Texas ....maybe two months? Maybe less.
Most winters here require only a sweater or sweat-shirt.
I use the Jak-Slide 202 and 228 for almost everything; Glock 19, FNX-9, Sig P226 MK25, Sig P227, SP-07, 75B, and my Steyr M9-A1.
I feel most comfortable with it under the belt but outside the pants.
Just my opinion.
-
I've got my eye out for an SP-01 at a price I can afford... It's the gun I've lusted after since I first got into shooting, and I just sold a few other things and freed up some cash, so I figure it's about time that I bite the bullet and get it over with. ;D
Though I'm intrigued lately by the Steyr L9 and if a crazy deal pops up on one of those before I find an SP-01, I might be tempted.
-

Just a thought, but.....
If the Bren Ten fits, the 97 has to fit in the Galco Miami Classic
You might want to contact them and ask

Sounds great TT
I like the 97, but since I don't do 45....
I just wish CZ'd would take the plunge and start making the 97 in 10mm
Guess we just need to keep pressing the issue
-
Seriously considering the P-01. Wondering how it's trigger compares to my current P-07, Witness PS, & Sar K2P, and if the decocker operates as smooth as the P-07?
-
I just ordered a CZ 2075 Rami BD from Grab A Gun. Will post pics when it gets here. I have had one on my want list for a long time and it seems like every time I had the $$ none were available, got lucky today.
-
Great gun, enjoy!

I just picked up a S&W Model 10 Police Trade In I got from Bud's.
It has holster ware that gives it charater. Good lock up and timing, the trigger is very nice in both DA & SA.

I purchased one a couple of years ago from Buds, Australian trade in. It has been a wonderful shooter.
-
After playing musical pistols in 9mm, I'm ready for some caliber variety. Waiting on a Ruger SP101. Maybe picking up a Springfield Range Officer afterwards.
-
Looks like my next handgun will be a 2nd Sar K2 45.
I dabble in making holsters and think I'll make a pair of holsters and some magazine pouches for a "Dual K2" rig (just for fun or BBQs or "the Zombie War"). I have some ostrich on hand but need to look at some other exotic leathers for trim/accents.
I'm thinking 2 each 14 +1, .45's should cover most handgun situations.
-
Im seriously considering picking up an HK of some variety. I prefer hammer fired but The new VP9 is getting good reviews.
-
I done screwed up now. Went and messed around with a RAMI at the Gander Mountain I was driving by. One of those is definitely next on the list to get it after I get my P-01 out of layaway. bleep you CZ! [emoji38][emoji38][emoji38][emoji38][emoji38]
-
Cyanide,
You will not regret it when you get one.
The RAMI is an amazing little gun, and responds exactly like a full size to the normal modifications.
I traded my first SA for one, for the wife to carry, about a year ago and I have finally let her carry it now for about the last month. He, he.

That trick shot I posted didn't inspire my yen for the 929. Being a 9mm Luger revolver sparked the interest. That fact that it seems to shoot pretty well and comes with nice accesories like a reasonably long bbl and decent sights for comp. makes it desirable to me.
Maybe even 'behind' that is the yen for the third 9mm---a carbine. They don't make a 9mm shotgun, so I guess you can't have everything. :D

Brother & I went to a Friends of the NRA event last night.
This year we both won pistols (He a Glock 23 / .40 Cal and me a Springfield XDs in .45 Cal.
Last year he won a pistol (XD-9 SC) and I won two long guns (ISSC Austria MK22 Rifle and a Savage AXIS .308 Win Bolt-Action Rifle with Scope).
So I met my next handgun last night; XDs in .45 Cal. I already have a XD-9 SC so I am very familiar with Springfields.
It is not the prettiest gun but it can sure take a lot of abuse and just keep firing away.
The XDs in .45 Cal will be strictly a CCH when concealment is the first priority.
Going to have to get a Pearce grip extensions to hold the 45 like I do with my 9mm.
And no ....brother isn't going to get "Hood Sights" for his GLock

Picked it up used (barely) from Cabelas in Hamburg, shipped in from Buda, Texas. By the serial number, it is 2014 production. Whoever had it must have put a few cylinders worth through it and decided it wasn't right for himself/herself. I hope it is right for me. Very clean, almost no turn line on the cylinder, just one small scratch on the cylinder. I got it for just under $620. Now I just have to take a loan to feed it.

im thinking a revolver in 44mag

My next will be a lightweight .22 for my wife to shoot while she recovers from her wrist injury/surgery.
We've looked at the Ruger 22/45 Lite and the Ruger SR22 - she favored the SR22 (perhaps because it was available in pink *eyeroll*). Anyone have any experience with either as far as reliability and ammo sensitivity is concerned?
I would just set her up to use my 75BD with the Kadet kit but she felt that was too heavy for her.

Just brought a Sig P-226 DAK .40 home Friday. Tritium sights and 3 12 round magazines. I like the full size Sig grips.

So far im 100% happy with my sr22. Its cycled everything ive put through it including some of the 60gr aguila sniper subsonic. Double action trigger pull kinda sucks though. SA isnt too bad. Great plinker.

Had my LCP in my pocket for three years. Time to try something new! I was looking at the new Kimber Micro CDP .380 when the clerk at Whittakers showed me this SIG. It caught my eye! Hope I like it because it's on the way.

I thought it was raspberry, and there's a lilac model too. Oh wait, I shouldn't know that. :o
Great pinker...I mean plinker, I picked up the threaded version. I've been talking about getting a can for years now. A friend of mine has the standard one, he loves it.
Gunblast does a great review on YouTube. Both my friend and I got the SR22 because it's suppose to spit out what you put in it. That's why I passed on the M&P 22, supposedly it has a lot of ammo failure issues.
22/45 are suppose to be great guns...I'm not a fan of the Buck Rogers space design.

I had a Ruger SR22, it was a really nice little .22. It was a little small for my hands (I have big hands) but ate the 15 yr old ammo I fed it without a hiccup.
-
James, that looks slick. What caliber?
It's a 6.8 ARP. Think of it like the 6.8 version of the .223 Wylde.
The barrel is a 18" AR15 Performance 1/11.25" twist mid-length gas Socom profile.
Upper is a Spartan Side Charger. It allows you to rack the bolt without getting off the rifle.
Handguard is a 15" Diamondhead VRS-T
NiB carrier
Daniel Defense bolt
Adjustable low profile gas block
Optic is a Lucid HD7 gen 3 red dot with a 2x manifier and killflash

That sounds right :)
22/45 are suppose to be great guns...I'm not a fan of the Buck Rogers space design.
Yeah, neither was my wife... I am a little disappointed, if only because the bolt on it is even easier to manipulate than the slide on the SR22. The mags seem easier to deal with on the SR22, though.
Is there any .22 ammo that should generally be avoided? Hollowpoints? Thunderbolts? It is hard to find anything for a fair price right now but I suppose I'd better start stocking up when I can.
-
Was planning on a RAMI but, forgot about a bid I had on GB for a 9mm M&P Shield that I ended up winning (will probably give to the g/f).
So, gotta start saving up (again) for the RAMI next!

Now that's a real bummer.

I am seriously considering a P01. It's one of the few CZ models I have never owned. I don't need it and it doesn't really fill a niche for me. But that never stopped me before. ;D

My P-01 was an impulse buy. I finished shooting at the range, came out to the store and there it was. So I purchased it. That was back in March.

Your old RAMI goes to good use though, I finally let the wife have it. LOL! and she carries it all the time.

glad to hear it! if you ever want to sell it you better hit me up first... I miss that one !

I've been really tempted to get a PMR-30 lately. I'm hoping it's just a faze. :)

So I go through the gun safe looking for something to trade towards a local PMR-30, $499. Brand spanking new Armscor 38 Super. Head on down to the gun store, show the man what I have. The man behind the counter says he will give me $250 for the pistol. I declined and we shook hands. He then asked if I there was anything else he could help me with. I thought for a moment and said there was one more thing I needed. A rape whistle! He just laughed and showed me what they had, and tried to up-sell me on a tazer. Said it was the best option for me.

The Citadel 1911's are excellent 1911's! 8) I have one in .45 ACP and it's been absolutely stellar! :)

Tristar L-120

Definitely going to be a M&P 9mm Pro or CORE. Once I sell the CZ it's pretty much a done deal.

Well, it was supposed to be an SP-01... Somehow I ended up with a P-01 and an SP-01 on order still... ::)

My P-01 was an impulse buy. I finished shooting at the range, came out to the store and there it was. So I purchased it. That was back in March.
That's exactly how I ended up with a P-07.
My next purchase will have to be a S&W Model 18.

Want an SP 01 with a manual safety, but can't find one for a reasonable price. Not to mention being in CO with a 15 round magazine limit, the 10rd mag versions are even harder to find. So, I'm holding out for a Sphinx Standard Alpha SDP full size when it should hopefully be released first of the year. At least that's what I was told.

A Sphynx would be nice. They definetly seem hard to find.

You think the Sphinx will be more reasonably priced then a SP-01? Interesting, what will they cost? If they are more reasonable then the SP-01 I will have seriously look into one of them as well!!!

I have seen them on gunbroker for 8-900. I think the next time CZUB does a big run of the SP-01's, the price will come down.

From what I've heard, no - the Sphinx models will be more expensive. David @ CGW had some comments about the quality here (http://www.czfirearms.us/index.php?topic=63596.0).

Oh no! I'm saying I couldn't find an SP 01 at a reasonable price. I wasn't comparing the price of the CZ to the Sphinx. The Sphinx, I'm assuming, should be darn near twice the price of the CZ. Sorry for the confusion. I'm treating myself because I gave my blessing to the wife to get a new car.
I did send an email to KRISS asking about a release date and they responded with "no solid date yet, but are aiming to have all variants out by the end of this year." I can be patient.
-
I also have and SP01 safety model on my list. I'd love to have a Sphinx as well.

Buds Guns just had the SP 01 9mm Safety model in stock. Now it's OOS. I missed it by minutes. Can't believe it! Maybe God is saying it's not meant to be..... :(

Earlier today CZC had a SP01, not sure if they still have it.

I think I am getting the Sig 556xi in the next couple of days.(Sorry, not a handgun)
I already committed myself in getting it since I went in with two other guys at work to purchase 556 ammo. We will see how this works out.
-
I went to the gun show this morning and purchased a Colt LE 6940.
Let me tell you, the shows are not as crowded as they use to be the last few years. Well at least here.
I was talking to few vendors and one told me it was because there was a show every month for the last few years.
Prices are ridiculously cheap, hence I purchased the Colt.
-
I've just gotten into handguns in the last few months. So far the collection consists of 2 Browning's (a Buck mark and a .40 caliber Hi-Power), a S&W 586, a Grand Power K100 and a just purchased CZ75 Legend 75th Anniversary. I'm kind of torn as to what's next. I'd like a T series BHP but also another .22lr...maybe a revolver like a S&W 617. I'm in Canada so it's all target orientated and all with barrels more than 105mm (about 4.15 inches)
-
I'm having trouble deciding.
I'd like a CZ75 Tactical sport in .40 or a 1911 in 10 mm. But the Tactical Sport would probably win out this year.
I already have 5- 1911's, 3 -.45, 1- .22 and 1- 9mm.

Picking up the SP-01 on tues! Almost took a year to find one out here... O0

I sold a sig 239 SAS mk 2 9mm and a RIA compact 9mm tactical and bought a Dan Wesson 9mm eco, great piece. But I was missing the sig and today bought a pristine 239 .40 for $400!
How can I lose at that price?

CZ 75 SDP COMPACT. IT'S ALREADY AT my local gun shop. i completed my HQL monday, so i have less then 30 days until i can pic up my new son.
right behind a should the CZ 2014 PO7 SHOULD ARRIVE AFTER A TRIGGER JOB AND NEW SITES ARE INSTALLED.
wow that caps bandit was fast! O0

Maryland's new way to say registered gun. they have tossed in some moneymaking snafus for new gun owners...
the background check was already completed. yet it was cause for concern because i don't know how much detail they go into checking what shows up.
i have been accused and went to trial for some BS that i did not do and could not have done. btw this was known by Law enforcement before i was arrested. A book my evolve from this case if i get around to it.
so anyway federal guideline says i can own a gun. i have never been convicted of any crime felony or misdemeanor. i have nol pros's only and a PBJ for carrying a registered gun with no permit. the cop wanted to speak on my behalf when we went to court, how many times do you hear that lol.
-
OK, finally got my new SP-01 Tactical back from CGW :) This will primarily be my home defense/nightstand/bug out gun. I had David do the DCP work, crown the barrel, remove the lanyard loop and mill off the right side decocker. The grips were a birthday present from my daughter - they are VZ Diamondbacks. I thought they might be hand shredders but they feel good to me. Guess I like them rough LOL. The light is a Surefire X300 Ultra... I have a light-bearing holdser coming from Pitbull Tactical - should be here any day now. I'll add a pic when it arrives.

I'm getting nervous about hearing NOTHING from Remington. They may not be able to meet their schedule---no real surprise I guess.

I'll buy a lottery ticket tomorrow. If I win big, I'll buy this one - http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=447916442 (Arsenal Firearms Double 1911).
If not, then I'll buy one of the Swedish M40 Lahti pistols I've been looking at. (OK, to be honest, I'll do this option either way)
-
Not my next but always on my list is the Finnish Lahti L-35, it's built a bit better than the Swedish copy and besides it was my grandads side arm from 1939-1945. He also carried a Suomi konepistooli and that one is off the list for now!
-
On the hunt for a P-02 now...
-
Hopefully I will get a call about my pro package P07 being completed. I think it is supposed to be next week. Fingers crossed.
-
I am satisfied with the service size pistols I have in 9mm. So, my wantlist in no particular order:
P07
75 Compact B or D
G19 Gen 4
G26
S&W Shield
CW9
PT111 Millenium G2
Let's see... I now have a P-07. Scrub the Millenium G2, there are better choices out there. The P-07 is an equivalent of the G19... Something smaller is in order, like the Shield...maybe a RAMI? However, the 75 Compact/P-01/PCR are nice options too... :-\

The grip size on that .45 pistol-pistol is definitely on the BIG side. Looks amazingly 'normal' otherwise.

I looked at it in the store's display case. The grip size is roughly the size of a Desert Eagle (it is wider, but shorter than the DE). Double 8-round magazine, two barrels, fires 2 shots of .45 ACP with each pull of the trigger.

I've heard that the Finnish L-35 is a better made pistol, but the M40 Husqvarna made pistols are a lot easier to find. The Finnish version will stay on my long term want list.
-
My next is an CZ85 Combat followed by an SP-01 Tac direct from CGW with Pro Package and a refinished frame. I am in Cali so with SSE running out i have been in the one a month club for about 6 months. Yay Cali! ;D
-
I just agreed to buy my buddy's CZ 97B. He has it set up SAO so had to buy some custom parts to take it back to DA/SA. He is considering trading for my P01. I like it but don't carry it. He wants to shoot it a bit more and see if he likes it. He is going to trade me a fully upgraded Compact. I shoot the all steel better anyway. I picked up and 85B a couple of weeks ago and my pro package P07 should ship out any day now. So, the only gun really left on the "must have" list is an SP01 safety model. Down the road I will pick up another 82 and 83. I want to find ones that are keepers. I would someday like to have another 40B and 40P but that isn't all that important. So, I guess, for the time being, I am down to wanting only one. That will change.
-
When I was picking up a new .22 Cal upper for my Bushmaster I handled one of the new Rock Island Tactical 1911s.
I am not a 1911 fan even though I have one (old Chrome Colt Model 70 Series).
But I have to say that the feel, the smooth slide, and the adjustable trigger made this one for $575 very very tempting.

I might just hold out for a carry model CZ 75 B Compact instead.
-
Laugh if y'all must (I expect it actually lol), but my next pistol is going to be......a 9mm CZ 100. After I get it to the range to see just how horrible it is, most likely going to ship it to David and see if he can work any of that Cajun magic on it.
[emoji48]
-
It turns out my next handgun is going to be a Russian Nagant M1895 revolver (7.62x38R). Don't know the year yet, but it should be from between 1930 to sometime in 1940's. I pre-ordered today thinking I'll hear back in a month or two. Turns out they'll arrive on Friday and will start shipping to buyers FFLs next week!

Yes, I have and he hasn't (yet), but.... after just handling it in the store I do believe that I'm gonna leave it just as it is. More on that in my separate thread [emoji6]

I think I have about 2 or 3 entries on this post alone. Don't think I have bought any of my supposed new guns yet. Last one was a used Sig 226. My Walther PPQ M2 will be here Friday.

-
The Beretta 92 still remains the best-looking semi-auto I've ever seen.
My "next gun" changes every week, but I think my current list is as follows:
1. Kahr CM9
2. Ruger GP-100
3. CZ-75B Brushed Stainless
Plus, if a CZ P-02 or a reasonably-priced Beretta 84 Nickel becomes available, I'm jumping all over it. I've lost several Gunbroker auctions for both.
-

I also love Walther P-38's and have three of them.
(http://www.hunt101.com/data/548/3949P38s_3.jpg)
WWII P38 and two Post War P38's
And yes, Beretta's design extraction from the P-38 was not lost on me, either, as I have often shot a Taurus PT92, which is the cousin of the Beretta 92.
(http://www.hunt101.com/data/549/medium/PT92wPachgrip01.JPG)
Taurus PT92 w Pachmayr Grip and Ghost Ring Rear Sight
I would not mind picking up a Taurus PT917, which is a slightly shorter version of the PT92.
(http://www.hunt101.com/data/549/PT917CBL.jpg)
Blued version of the now discontinued Taurus PT917, which was a shortened version of the Taurus PT92.
-
That would be like the Beretta Centurion, same grip size but shorter in length.

Exactly! I wish it had not been discontinued, but perhaps I can find one slightly used.

Beretta has reintroduced a few of it's older styles recently. I am hoping that they will bring back the Centurion. That will be my next purchase unless CZ comes out with a two tone or stainless 75BD or PCR.

Either a SAR K2-45 or a CZ97. Leaning towards the 97.

It is probably time for an intervention. I put a deposit on a Gl***

Thinking either a 97B converted to SAO or a self built .458 Socom AR pistol. Either will have to wait until after Christmas.

I have a first generation 97B, it is a great range gun but I would not want to carry it all day! When I am not carrying my CZ P-07 I carry a P-83 in 9x18 Mak. What I want to carry instead of the P-83 would be one of these: CZ P-01, Kahr CW 9, S&W Shield or one of the Airweight S&W snubbies/3" bbl revolver in.357/.38 Spl +P. Something thinner than the P-07 would be ideal. I know a snubbie is not thinner but it would be lighter! ;)

Beretta 84FS Cheetah .380
Not as comfortable to shoot as any of my CZs in 9mm or .45 ACP. Surprising amount of recoil for a .380.
Not easy to rack and it already bit me, twice.
Compact feel and weight makes it easy to carry. May put a Hogue grip on it to see if that helps.
If not ..... off it goes.
But really, it shoots straight, real straight. And it looks really cool. Looks cool under my tuxedo, (just kidding).
-
Between a Bersa Thunder 9 Pro UC or a Springfield xd9 sub-compact.This gun will be in my CC rotation so I want it to be as controllable as possible (recoil & flip).I like the all metal frame and full length rails of the Bersa but the width at 1.45" is worrysome.The Springfield has the grip safety and high bore axis.
-
Not a handgun but I ordered yesterday from CDNN an armalite AR 10 rifle and a couple extra mags. I ordered today an armalite free float handguard, a jp enterprises trigger group, ambi safety, and scope mount and 5000 federal LPP, 450 bullets, and a few other reloading bits.

How does it compare with your Cougar?
-
some vintage p38, love those guns.
-
There was a semi-compact on GB. I really hated to let it go but had no choice.
-
How does it compare with your Cougar?
My CZ 100 has a lighter trigger pull and overall weight, not to mention feeling much smaller than the Cougar, which was a little bit smoother at trigger break and without the overtravel. The Cougar shot well but, was resold almost immediately.
That being said however, I will be picking up a 9mm PX4 Type D down the road! It's a shame that I am not a fan of the .40, because almost every Cabela's I pass out here on the road has a nice selection of used, police trade-in PX4 Type D's with night sights between $430-450.
-
I had a Cougar DA/SA and sold it to fund my CZ addiction. I never missed it. It was a great shooting gun, but never got use to the shape. Even though it had the rotating barrel, I liked the 92 series better.
-
Got my 97b with David to do that voodoo that he do. Hope to have it for the New Year. After that & way off if ever is a 1911 S&W Custom. One can dream can't he?
-
FJ, holding a PX4 and a Cougar side by side feels like apples and oranges, or at least to me. The Storm IMO, has better natural POA and though only a few ounces lighter feels very, very different and in a positive way.
Not saying that it would replace any of my top 3 CZ's , I just want one! Yes, I am still attached to Beretta lol
-
I enjoy my 92 Compact and I think I will hold on to it.
The Px4 I sold because I didn't like the grip...small for my hands even with the large backstop.
I too still like Berettas very much that when they reintroduce the Centurion, I am getting one.
-
Lol too bad I don't have my old 96 D Centurion, I'd make you an offer you couldn't refuse hahaha
-
The Px4 I sold because I didn't like the grip...small for my hands even with the large backstop.
You mentioned grip size, that's another thing I prefer with the PX4 over the Cougar. The Cougar grip is entirely too big and fat for me, especially compared to my RAMI, which is honestly about the fattest grip I will tolerate on a double stack 9mm. Pics over in my collection thread. [emoji6]
-
Saw the picture, looks like the removable grips were pretty thick on the Cougar.
I don't think I have ever shot a double action only pistol, just a striker fired. I must try soon. That CZ 100 intrigues me.
-
Must remember the Cougar was originally designed from the get go for the .40, it was also chambered in 9mm, .45 ACP, and .357 Sig.
-
My next handgun? Well we all know its not REALLY a handgun. Its the brand new CZ Scorpion EVO3 S1. I have two pre-ordered at $729 ea. I can't wait to take possession in January!

Satin nickel, not stainless. Satin nickel has black controls, stainless has stainless controls. Satin nickel also has the more gold hue, where stainless is more silver looking.
Satin nickel is sexier, anyway. ;)

I didn't score on a Black Friday or a Cyber Monday deal, so I ordered this from a local gun store's online site. I'd been wanting on for a while. Bersa Thunder .380.

I've watched a few reviews of that gun. All seem to be quite positive, with the exception of price.
I'd love to read a unbiased review, if you'd like to do one!
-
Let's see...
I need to get another P01. Mine went in a trade. I need another RAMI. Probably going to try the PCR again. I would love a semi-compact. I would also love to find a Massada. Of course getting another 82 and 83 is on my list. I may need a part-time job.

Nice...always wanted the walther but the price, seems the bersa got some positive reviews as the price is nice also
-
The Bersa .380 is a great shooting gun, well balanced, fits nicely in your hand and the sights are fine.
Have fun with it.

New Edition CZ 75B. It is almost to pretty to shoot....but I will.

I thought it was going to be a P-07. Went into the LGS today to get one and walked out with a SP-01 instead. ;D
-
That is a big difference to the P-07 you wanted. :)
-
That is a big difference to the P-07 you wanted. :)
I thought that too as I walked out the door.......
I think I still want a P-07.......but room will have to be made first. That means either the P-09 or the SP-01 will have to go. Thinking right now that it might be the 09........
Decisions, decisions.......
-
When I purchased the P-01 I thought... Why?
Now since I have the Kadet, I am glad I did. It just took time, but worked out.
-
I really like my P-01. Now I have the big brother that spent to much time at the Thanksgiving table to go along with it........
Probably my favorite gun as far as handling is my PCR. It just feels good......
-
I agree for the compact, but love my 75BD for target shooting. I just love the non railed pistols better.
-
Probably my favorite gun as far as handling is my PCR. It just feels good......
Same here... I recently got my SP-01 back from CGW and took it and my PCR to the range this past weekend... I expected the SP-01 to shoot noticeably better (especially with the X300 I have on it) but the PCR is neck and neck. There is just something about the balance of the PCR... and it does have a slightly better trigger. My only gripe with it is the rear sight...

Is your gripe with the rear sight or the notch cut into the slide for the rear sight?
-
I recently completed a Sig Masters Course for rifle and pistol. On completion we were offered the chance to purchase a Sig 320 in our choice of caliber and model (carry, fullsize). I was told it was at Sig employee cost which was too good to pass up.
Beyond that I would be interested in the single stack 9mm that Glock is supposed to be releasing in the first quarter of 2015.

Both, really...
I find the notch too narrow, miss having a ledge on the front (for a defensive pistol I really think that should be standard) and would prefer an all black rear sight. (I have blacked out the dots - that helps but is not ideal)
The stupid reverse cutout on the slide keeps me from replacing the sight.

Next up is a used Gl*** 17 ...one of my sons wants to get into pistol shooting. I'd like to preserve the integrity and functionality of my CZ's and let him learn the basics (including maintenance) on something else ;D

Well even though I stated above I like the non railed pistols better, I just purchased the P-01 OD Green from Damascus. I let one slip through my fingers last Winter but not this time!
Man, I am one happy CZ owner!
David get ready to ship some of your goodies.

No sooner had I completed the the G17 transaction and I saw the P-01 ODG availability by Firemanjones and that became the next handgun!!!

LOL!!!

I have two inbound, a CZ 75B Omega and a Ruger SR1911 Night Watchman.

That's a great plan. I'm sure you will be very happy with both of them! Let us know how you like the trigger on the CZ 75B Omega.

just bought a PO7 that is really sweet for the price..waiting on a SP 01 tact 9 to come in..but since i carry a glock daily I am looking for a small glock....id really like to see a small steel frame CZ single stack with omega and a decocker

Have you considered the P-07 for a carry gun?
I conceal carry mine with no problems.

Trying to find an STI 2011 VIP stainless in 9mm. Had a deal being set up on Armslist, the dudes a total flake.

S&W 442/642 standard or Pro model, haven't decided. I'm going to need a good reliable pocket gun when the warmer weather comes. Not impressed with any of the toyish plasticy little .380's out there.

Cz p-09 9mm
Springfield Xdm 4.5" 9mm
Ruger mark III 22lr
Springfield 1911 mil spec 45acp
S&W 357mag revolver (not sure on modle yet)
This is just my realistic list. That I plan to pick up over the next few years

Take a look at a Ruger LCR, I traded off my 642 for one about a year and a half ago. Better trigger and changing the front sight is much easier. SoCo Kydex make a great IWB holster for the LCR that I'd suggest a look at too.

Thanks, but no thanks. The Ruger LCR is bulkier and it's fat sticky rubber grip doesn't bode well for pocket carry, and unlike the 642, there are no grip options available that I like. I also dislike finger grooves on my grips, and internal lock mechanisms. Better trigger? True, but it's also easier to lock up if not reset correctly, and a good trigger job on a 642 can even things out.
The S&W J-Frames remain the finest discreet carry pocket revolvers ever produced, bar none. They just get everything right on so many levels.

I have to politely disagree, S&W J-frames were one of the best, but most current models seem to have very poor fit and finish. A model 60 pro made 3 trips back to S&W for timing problems and a bent crane. It was sold off after being returned for the third time in under a year. After the poor service and failures to get the repairs correct I doubt I'd ever buy another new S&W revolver. I have an 25 to 30 year old model 19 and a 20 plus year old model 57 that I'll keep until I can't shoot anymore, then give them to my son or grand sons.
I've never had a reset or lock up issue with my LCR, but had that problem regularly with the 642 I had.
The Bantam/boot grip for the LCR makes it every bit as compact as a 442/642, and for me anyway much more comfortable to shoot.

The Bantam/boot grip for the LCR makes it every bit as compact as a 442/642, and for me anyway much more comfortable to shoot.
The main issue with the LCR is it's bulk and grip, making it unsuitable for pocket carry as far as myself is concerned. Might be no problem for a bigger guy, but not for me. I tried pocketing both the LCR and the 642. The 642 slipped right in and out of my pocket like it was a part of my body, and felt perfectly comfortable in an inexpensive BlackHawk pocket holster. The LCR did not, and produced a noticeably larger profile in my pocket. It also did not fit into some pocket holsters that otherwise fit the 642, even though the manufacturer claimed it would. The LCR's large, bulky sticky rubber grip with it's aggressive finger grooves made drawing out of my pocket a challenge.
I took turns staging and working the triggers of both and the LCR's was much easier to lock up. I had to put more effort into locking up the 642's. I've seen a video where a guy shooting one had his LCR lock up also as he tried to fire it as fast as possible. Not good. I guess there's a price to pay for that unique cam trigger action. Maybe Ruger has worked out this bug by now? I don't know.
That Bantam boot grip helps but it's still sticky rubber and provides a poorer grip, not to mention being ugly as sin. Which is another issue... not one of function but of form. The LCR is an ugly duckling compared to the pretty J-Frame. Just an opinion but I'm the one that always has to look at the darn thing. Add that with the other more important issues and the 642's infinite choice in grips and accessories and it's stellar track record throughout the years and it's not hard for me to decide which one I'd choose.
Reliably issues? I haven't heard many complaints in terms of reliably issues with the 642 other then a few about it's finish wearing off. The 442 doesn't seem to have this problem, although I've never seen either one with an abnormally worn finish. However, I have heard of complaints of the above mentioned reset/lock-up issue with the LCR, and flame cutting near the upper barrel on the aluminum framed LCR's, and seen evidence of it as well.
Fit and finish? The S&W J-frames I've handled looked fine to me. Sure, they aren't really nice stainless or blued anymore but how many guns at that price point are these days? They certainly exhibited a finer finish and workmanship then the Charter Arms and Taurus J-Frame knock-offs I've handled.
-
My next handgun will definetly be a CZ. Which one it will be is the problem. Should I go with the 97 BD that I want or should it be a compact 9mm? Gotta get something to keep my SP-01 Tactical company.

Think of which one may be the most useful in the short or long term. Since you already have one full size pistol, I'd utilize that SP-01 as a home defense gun or OWB carry and get a Compact 9mm as a CCW, if that is an option for you.

That's the direction I'm leaning in and the P-01 looks like the leading choice right now.

That's the direction I'm leaning in and the P-01 looks like the leading choice right now.
Keep in mind you may not be needing a rail on a CCW, and the extra bulk of the P-01's frame rail may make concealed carry more cumbersome and limit your holster options. The P-01 is also more expensive and may be harder to find then a standard 75 Compact.
I've never owned or handled a P-01, so I don't know for certain, but all the above mentioned reasons were why I decided on a standard compact model as a primary CCW, plus I didn't want the decocker.
-
If I couldn't, for some reason, carry a compact I would pick the P01 despite the rail. I've had both and it outshoots the PCR hands down for me.
-

Which one outshouts the PCR? Compact or P-01 or both? I wonder why this would be the case, unless you just got an inaccurate barrel or the lighter weight of the PCR caused more felt recoil.
-
I'd also want a compact series next--drawn to P01, but my wife and older kids maybe would feel 75 compact (not PCR) is softer because it's heavier--anyone have experience on that?
I've also never had a 1911 of my own--too many to choose from and the prices, jeez. Kind of like Colt's own XSE's, but maybe Springfield Range Officer given $ difference. Of course the 97B looks awesome but don't know if I get a chance to try one without buying--but how wrong could I go w/it?
-
My next handgun purchase will probably be a lower end 1911 that I can customize, a B6P compact for CCW, for an EAA Witness in 10mm or 45.
-
The weight makes the Compact by far the better shooter. Some people don't like to carry the extra weight. I say get a good belt and holster and carry what you shoot best. IMO, the P01 shoots better than the PCR, also by a wide margin. I think it may be because of the slight additional nose weight. I know it is probably insignificant but it sure seems to make a difference to me.
-
Although the it's not a CZ its still a pretty good gun
Sig 1911. Max Michel model. Getting it to shoot. USPSA single stack division
-
Sig 1911s are very nice. Excellent choice.
-
Pulled the trigger on my next gun tonight.... ordered myself a P-01!
-
you will not be disappointed. the P01 was my first CZ and still my favorite of the four I own
-
you will not be disappointed. the P01 was my first CZ and still my favorite of the four I own
I'm sure that I won't be! I sold my Glock 17 this afternoon and that freed up enough funds to get the P-01. Can't wait for it to get here!
-
I hit my local gun shops this morning looking for a Beretta PX4 Compact before the rebate expires. One shop had one for $596, I passed as MSRP is $575. Bass Pro had one for $550.
I got home and decided to check online. Bud's had the make an offer open on the Compact so I bid $450 and they accepted it. I hate it when that happens. I pulled up another screen and bid $400 and they took that also. I couldn't get under $400, so I took that with a $75 rebate. I figured $325 is not bad.
-
Either a SAR K2-45 or a CZ97. Leaning towards the 97.
I have a first generation 97B, it is a great range gun but I would not want to carry it all day! When I am not carrying my CZ P-07 I carry a P-83 in 9x18 Mak. What I want to carry instead of the P-83 would be one of these: CZ P-01, Kahr CW 9, S&W Shield or one of the Airweight S&W snubbies/3" bbl revolver in.357/.38 Spl +P. Something thinner than the P-07 would be ideal. I know a snubbie is not thinner but it would be lighter! ;)
Another choice for me to consider... a Walther CCP. Here's a video comparison of the CCP vs a Canik TP9.

That's a steal, congrats! Are you going to keep it configured as an F, or convert it to a G?
-
I'm thinking about going to the G, not sure now. I'll get my hands on it and then decide.
-
I wish Beretta would make the compact (and subcompact) in DAO like they do the full size (picked up a police trade in Type D a couple weeks ago). In lieu of that, I prefer Type G, as my first ever pistol was an M9 and I am not a fan of the combination safety/decocker.
Are you considering swapping out your mainspring for a D style?
-
I'll have to get in in hand and see how it feels. I have D springs in my M9 and 92s, but I'm not seeing much online about a need to do anything to the PX4 series.
-
I think I need another pre-B. They keep getting away from me.
-
Oreocat, good deal. Please let me know what you find out.
Birds Away, you're going to have to set a trap so that it can't get away from you hahaha.
Set you up a cardboard box with a stick attached to a string, put a couple boxes of ammo in there and when that pre-B comes sniffing around you got it!
-
Well I picked it up this afternoon, ran it home for a quick cleaning and hit the range. It was 20 degrees but I did get 100 rounds threw it, all good.
Cyanide, I don't think it needs any spring work. I did find out some people use the D spring from the 8000 Cougar, but I don't see why. It has a nice trigger, and the double action is pretty light as it comes from the factory.

Outstanding Oreocat!

Can't wait for SHOT2015! I have two Scorpion EVO3 S1's pre-ordered and I am going crazy waiting for CZ-USA to release them to the FFLs.
-
That should be fun to shoot. I'm waiting for a Ket-tec KSG - probably get it next week. I figured if I don't like it, it should be easy to sell since it's still somewhat hard to get at a decent price.

I don't usually get too excited about a gun, but then I saw THIS. Custom DW 1911 and built to spec at CZC. I can't afford it but I want it.
For sale is my 1911 from CZ Custom Shop chambered in .40 S&W built on a Dan Wesson slide and frame. It also comes with an interchangeable 10mm barrel. Everything was custom ordered and hand fit by gunsmith Eric Zinn and the CZ Custom Shop. I intended to use it to compete for single stack competition for Tuesday Night Steel, but things changed and I don't have time to compete or reload. It's in exceptional shape. It comes with three Cobramag 9-round magazines (interchangeable for both .40 and 10mm). I paid $3,306.93 for it (I can provide you with the original sales order). Here are the details of the build:
-AFTEC Extractor
-SVI Trigger
-SVI Trigger Base
-SVI Bobtail
-Wilson Combat Sear Spring
-Wilson Combat Ambi-Safety
-EGW Barrel Bushing
-Caspian Ejector
-Kart .40 Barrel
-Kart 10mm Barrel
-EGW Long Strut
-EGW OS Firing Pin Stop
-Ed Brown Rebuild Kit
-Ed Brown Extended Mag Catch
-Koenig Hammer
-MGW Sight Blank
-Wilson Combat Guide Rod
-Hiene Sights
-EGW Slide Stop
-S&A Mag Well
-EGW Firing Pin
-Wolff Recoil Spring
-Wilson Combat Plunger Tube
-30 LPI Front Strap Checkering
-45 Degree Cut Bottom of Slide
-Carry De-horn
-Hand-fit & Blended
-Ahrends Grips
-EZ Logo Engraved (For Eric Zinn)
Until recently, I had not shot it for well over a year. It's time to move it down the road. It is as tightly and smoothly fit as any Wilson Combat I have owned. I will part with it for $2000.00 cash. I may accept partial trades for other quality firearms, specifically: Sig 229, Browning Citori in 20ga, Winchester Model 70 (pre-64), or a Glock 23. I am also interested in .22 handguns with threaded barrels.

I guess this is my next handgun. Picked it up yesterday. Came with all the parts to Cajunize it.

I've been seriously eyeing a Sphinx SDP. Now trying to decide between the Alpha and one of the aluminum grip models (sand / krypton). Would have to order an aluminum grip model and pay a premium... Not sure if it's worth it, weight is about the same.

I done screwed up and (finally) handled an HK P2000 LEM V2. Y'all know me and my DAO love affair..... I'm sold!

Glossy Blue CZ97B.
just got it on gun broker this weekend and it will not see my hands until Cajun is done with it.

I don't think that this qualifies as buying a gun but I went for a CZ Kadet 22LR conversion kit and here is my CZ 2075 Rami BD wearing it.

In my opinion it counts as a new CZ due to the roll mark. Nice RAMI long slide. I want one!

Of coarse it does, have fun.

I never liked the feel of the texturing on the original versions. The Mod 2 looks a lot better, but I haven't tried one yet.
Not sure what my next handgun will be - I'll be picking up an M1 Garand on Saturday from a Gun Shop about 70 miles away that I haven't visited yet.

Taurus Model 85. I managed to get a deal online for $240. I already have one in matte stainless.

Thanks muggia and firemanjones. Found it at a local pawn shop last week. It is a .32 caliber PPK/S made in West Germany, imported by Interarms. My son and I shot 34 rounds through it yesterday without a hiccup. I was surprised how stout the recoil was for a .32. I bet your .380 does have some punch to it. I thought the box and target was a nice addition. I plan on selling it soon, but it's a kick to own it for a little while.
-
Yes they are snappy guns for recoil.

Probably a CZ 97BD

I find myself looking at the Walther P99AS and the AS Compact. Then again the new Beretta M9A3 looks good.

I've got a P-07 currently on it's way. I got a really good deal on it through buds. I should be able to pick it up from my FFL on Monday.

CZ 83 for the girlfriend to learn shooting with soft recoil. If she gets her carry permit maybe I'll lend it to her until she gets her own.

Saw a beautiful condition VZ50 today. Tried to resist the urge to buy it (ok, maybe I didn't try all that hard) and failed.

Been looking at subcompacts lately. Think I've narrowed it down to a CZ83, Sig p232 or a Beretta px4 storm 9mm. Does anyone have any or all of these and can offer first hand opinions? I understand what forum this is but...

I have really become enamored with the .380 cartridge in the size of the CZ83/SigP232/WaltherPPK.
The average Joe gun owner sees no place for this size gun in .380. They will say "Why pick a .380 gun that size when they now make 9mm in the same size?" Or "The .380 is below the minimum for self defense". Also you'll hear "Blow backs have more recoil than the tilt barrel designs"
Even though, all 3 statements have validity, I think the group of guns you're looking at in .380 are a great size for a Blow Back gun design. Every one I've tried have a very natural ability to be on target when you raise them up to get a sight picture. And they very naturally shoot from retention. They are just plain fun to shoot.
So here is my take:
None of the guns you mention are easy to pocket carry, but can be done in cargo pockets if you desire.
The Sig P232 has a very nice trigger. Mine is 9# DA, and 3.5# SA and the DA is very very smooth. My P232 has never had a malfunction. I doubt the small pocket 380s are this reliable. The P232 has a heel mag release, so very different from the usual frame mag releases. You can not lock the slide back unless you have an empty magazine to place in the gun. In other words, the slide lock is internal. Same is true for the Walther PPK, which you didn't ask about. The PPK by the way is easy to pocket carry if you wanted to add that option. Slide bite is very real possibility with P232 or PPK, unless you get the new S&W PPK, but they generally aren't as reliable.
Sadly I don't own a CZ83, but would like to change that one day. So give comparison on that one.
I had a PX4 in .45 and it was a great running gun. It had a tilt barrel design. The subcompact PX4 has the traditional tilt barrel design. It is a chunky gun.
I am curious as to why you chose those 3 as options.
Sorry for my rambling post. I've had too much tea this morning!!!
-
Towns thanks for your advice! It's appritiated for sure. Sorry for delayed reply I worked a double shift today/last night. Came home and ate dinner/breakfast/lunch and disentegrated into my bed to sleep for the first time in 30 hrs. I wish I had some grand reason for why I picked those 3. As far as the cz83 and sig p232 being blowback I'm not TOO worried about that as I'm a large framed guy. 6'1" ish at 325lbs. and plenty strong to handle it ok in rapid fire scenerios. The hammer bite is a concern however. As far as the px4 storm I'm just intrigued by it. Wish it was some major tech reason, there just isn't. I wish I could say that looks don't matter but they do and firearms are not any different. These are all three good looking pistols even that px4. I will defenintly look into the ppk. Thank you I'm always up for any pointers- I'm new to collecting.

The CZ83 is a fine .380 pistol. It is accurate and being all steel, heavy enough to be fun to shoot. I've only put about 200 rounds through it in the time I've had it, but it has functioned flawlessly.
In comparison, I have an Interarms-era Mauser HSc in .380. Much less pleasant to shoot, not as accurate and nowhere near as reliable.
For a really compact .380, I have the Ruger LCP (first .380 I bought). It isn't a lot of fun to shoot, but after ~400 rounds of different manufacturers ammo, it has functioned 100% reliably. It isn't as accurate as the CZ83 when using the iron sights, but it is easy to add a trigger guard laser (mine is a LaserMax).
I have not fired the Sig or PX4 Storm for comparison.

I'm in the same frame of mind as Towns, Heavy and a few others...
The subcompact 9mm's have my attention. I'm considering a pocket pistol and have started looking at everything out there.
So far, I plan to dig deeper into the Boberg XR9L.
-
Wow BDG I'd have to save for a couple years for a boberg. Please do a report on what you think of it if you get one. I've heard that those are not really stocked up, they pretty much make them to order. Is that a rumor or...

Here is a link to a cool tiny gun chart i found on Calguns. You may have already seen it.

I agree, the price of the Borberg XR series is a bit on the upper end.
I have very few problems paying US labor costs associated with "Made in the USA" products as long as I'm convinced I am getting what I pay for. Now I just have to see if the XR9 is sold in CA. Unfortunately, Borberg Arms is not listed on the CA DOJ approved for sale list. However, I have found 2 Borberg distributors in Los Angeles so I'll do some more checking soon.
Despite the list price of the Borberg XR9's I'm estimating that the XR9 would probably cost about 20% - 30% more than my "finished" CZ's. To become head over heels fanatical about my CZ'z I had to modify the action, fire control group, springs and hammer with the CGW PRO Pack. This added about 30% - 40% to the purchase price of the CZ pistols. In the end...my CZ's have not turned out to be completely bargain shooters. That said, I am convinced that I have received MUCH MORE VALUE THAN WHAT I HAVE PAID FOR MY CZ's!

I would really like an LCR in 9mm. I like my .38special version, and the reloading options for the 9mm would be much better.
I held a RAMI for the first time yesterday. It was a much different feel than my 75BD or P-01, but I really liked it.

Made a few extra bucks doing a side job. Access control, burg alarm, and IP camera system install for a local business. Decided to treat myself to a new revolver, S&W 627 Pro Series. It's an 8 shooter 357Mag. Had it out yesterday after work and was hitting a soda can at 50 yards 7 out of 8 with a 158gr SWC loaded to 1100fps on 357 cases.

Since the 627 is an N-Frame, it is roughly the same size as a 629, correct?

Get 'choo some flush mags and a Desantis super fly / nemesis.
Gun shoots itty bitty groups @ POA with 124gr ammo. I was using the warmer GECO stuff and had zero problems. I was actually in awe of how well it shot. I highly recommend some FL paste or grease finding it's way into the trigger mech. It's kinda crappy when you first get it with the plastic trigger. The grips weren't grippy enough out of the box either. LOK's ridgebacks are like holding dull razor blades. They don't hurt, but the gun won't move. I can't say enough about how good this gun is.
As for me, I'd like a 'surpy 75B to strip down and possibly go pretty hard with the SA. Keep watching Coles waiting for more to pop. After dumping about $1k on the P-01 between the gun and the parts from CGW. I want something I can build up. That doesn't start at $600... + $350-400 in upgrades...

The 97 series does not disappoint those looking for an accurate, soft shooting .45.
I find my 97BD and the SP01 Tactical to be quite similar in shooting feel and performance.
Try to shoot a 97 along with your other .45 options. I think you will be impressed with how controllable a .45 can be.

I've got a steel compact but it has ambi safeties and is too wide. I could put a single sided safety back on it and take the first shot DA. But I pulled the fpb and it's technically not legal and I don't like breaking the rules.
I actually picked up a VP9 tonight and it sure feels nice. I look forward to getting it to the range. I've been getting the hankering to pick up a nice striker fired double stack. The new CCP division gave me an excuse to do so.
-
CZ83!
Brought it home last night, looks brand new. Nickel plate is great looking. Trigger is the nicest "new" trigger of all my CZs. Can't wait to shoot it.
-
Just put a deposit on an HK VP9. I figure if I'm going to eventually succumb and buy a striker-fired poly, I might as well go all-out!

I just placed an order for:
CZ 2075 RAMI BD
NAA Guardian .32acp without the internal lock
HK P30L LEM trigger configuration variant 1
-
Nicely done!

Agreed, why buy one when you can buy three. Well played Sir.

Tok and Fireman, Thanks for the encouragement (I think). It just seems right to have a CZ in Full Size, Compact and Sub-compact.

mine is a Kimber Custom II .45acp, almost here. Cant wait to hit the gun range and throw some 'biggies'.

I went to the range today to shoot my recently acquired Security Six and spotted the Match Champion GP100. I forced myself to leave without it. It may be my next purchase.

It's your fault Cyanide........all that DAO talk. Can't wait to let you know how the trigger feels.

The Custom II is supposed to be one of the more reliable 1911's. Have thought about that one many times. Please post pics and impressions when you get it.

Zastava M70A. For a $200 gun it's a nice well made little brick.

Cyanide, I will let you know soon. It is sitting at the FFL. They said they are short handed today and are trying to get them all logged in. :( :( :( So today or tomorrow. I have heavier springs coming from HK Parts. I will test the trigger with my gauge before making any changes.

CZ 75B Retro.
I know, I know...
But just fired a 75 for the first time at Sundays steel challenge.
And $479 at Buds (offer accepted) was too good to pass up.
Not complete CZ noob, as I do have a VZ50 and a .22 LR 455 American.

Good luck Towns! All 4 of my HKs are on their way out actually. I love the LEM, but the pistols themselves aren't doing anything for me so getting rid of them to fund other projects/acquisitions.
Thinking I am going to pick up a couple of pistols that I have had in the past and gotten rid of; a Glock 19 (Gen4, and maybe a 17 too), and another P-07 Duty, preferably the model with the extended barrel and night sights. Most likely going to snatch up a Beretta PX4 Subcompact to go along with my full size as well.
-
As far as CZ's go, I have my sights set on a 75B or a P01. I would love to give the H&K VP9 a try as well. I thought about giving the 4th generation Glocks a try but I have owned many Glocks in the past and never really felt satisfied with them for some reason.
-
Guess I should learn to never say never lol. Spent a great deal of time messing around with and, doing a great deal of dry firing a Sig P250 over the last hour. My crystal ball is telling me that I will be adding one of those to my collection very soon! Perhaps it will give me the warm, fuzzy feeling that I thought the HK LEM pistols were going to, but failed, since it has a trigger with full resistance through the entire pull....
-
I guess my next handgun is an SP01 (safety model). Surprisingly, my local gun shop actually located one and it should arrive today or tomorrow.
-
Ordered a SAR K2 45. Can't wait. Already got my 550b setup for 45 ACP in preparation. ;)
Somewhat off topic, but will keep it short. Went to a local sporting goods and they were selling .45acp WWB for almost 76cents per shot! :o Then I went to Walmart and WWB was still over 60 cents a shot! I'm sure glad I got into reloading, 45acp for 16 cents a shot sounds a lot nicer than 76.
-
^^ Nice! The SAR K2 45 is one of the top pistols i wish was available in CA. Look forward to seeing it.

I bought these about 2 weeks ago. Don't EVER buy 3 guns at one time. You just can't enjoy 3 at one time.
I like the RAMI BD more than I thought I would.
I really like the LEM trigger on the P30L
I kinda like the .32acp Guardian, but not in love with it. I'd return it if i could get what I paid for it.

Looking forward to this precision instrument.

Just got my CZ 75B Omega yesterday and took it to the range just to get a feel for it, so that was my next handgun.
Of course, I didn't expect to have another one so soon, but a local guy was selling a used Glock26 for a good price and I couldn't pass it up. Where I live is Glock country, yet I never bought one at the going prices. So, in a couple of days, it'll be a used G26.

I have the M9-A1 and I bought my brother the L9-A1.
They are great shooters and the ergonomics are the best there is IMHO.
But ....and I say 'BUT' the guns fling spent brass back at our head(s). Not every shot but at least one out of every magazine or so. It is annoying to have a hot brass down my shirt, on my balding head, or stuck on my ear. I have changed out the extractor and the spring. I have mixed and matched the parts that the Steyr guys sent me (fast and free). But still, it happens.
But the good thing is the gun is just perfect otherwise. I really like the triangular sites and the ergonomics. It is just like pointing my finger.
And it breaks down in a flash for easy cleaning. I still carry it and when I want to show off at the range it is the only gun that is as accurate as my CZs.
Just a note: my police buddy has it in 40 cal and never has that issue with the brass at the head.
So, I always button my top shirt button and always wear glasses and a cap at the range anyway.

That's a good choice. I had the opportunity to put 40 rounds through the GP-100 Match Champion over the weekend. I think it will give me a severe case of revolveritis to go along with my current case of RAMIitis.

Yes, the Match Champions are very nice looking, and have a better trigger from the factory than the stock GP100, but I am planning on using it as a PA trail gun, so I'd go for the standard and save about $200.
-
I've never shot a GP 100. That being said, I'd like to own one someday. I've got a Super Redhawk that I just love. So hey, I've got to have a .357 with the same grip dynamics. I'm thinkin a 3" version.
-
I've got a Smith and Wesson 915 on the way, after shipping and FFL it's still under $300. I hadn't actively sought that particular pistol out, but the price was right.
I'm a fan of metal pistols, and have accumulated a few. When you look around today, you see a ton of polymer, and that is becoming more prevalent with CZ, SIG, and Beretta. S&W and Ruger have already abandoned their metal lineup, except for the 1911s mostly.
I think a good metal fullsize pistol (like the CZ 75) is the epitome of the pistol, and I want to collect some decent examples before they are all gone. I had a hole in the collection this S&W fills, now I just need a SIG. ;D

Gp100's will eat any load of 357. They are a stout handgin. You get a trigger job done and it's a piece you would think twice about getting rid of. I looved my gp100.

Hi Bishop, well I think you should just come down and check it out in person, that's what I think! Ha, Ha,
The trigger should be about identical to your 40 and my 9. I do miss that 40 at times.
I should be getting a call tomorrow from the FFL if it comes in early enough, already told the wife to plan on going to the range in the evening. 8)

Definitely getting that new DAO P-07 that CZ is finally releasing. They must've been hearing my prayers since it's supposed to come with your choice of Heinie Straight 8 or Meprolight NS's, deeper cut side serrations ala CZ 100, and, be infused with a touch of that CGW magic; can't go wrong with a 7# buttery smooth pull and moderate reset! How they made it 100% ambi is beyond me, but I don't care, it's simply an amazing design that's long overdue, and may make a lot of people reconsider a true DAO!
SIGH..... Time to wake up and return to reality [emoji20]

I fully realize that most people no longer want a true DAO, but I have twice now lost a DAO pistol by waiting to go back and get them.
The first was a Colt Pony (true DAO .380acp) with a very nice trigger. I went to ask my son about it (he's my resident expert on used gun prices and what to look for). When I returned 1 hour later, it was gone.
Yesterday, I went to a gun store that had a DAO Beretta Cougar last month. Well yesterday it was gone:(
SOMEBODY (besides Cyanide) likes true DAO handguns.

Same here FMJ. I have searched for a single stack for a while. Handled a Sig P290RS that holds 6 rounds two days ago. It just didn't seem that much smaller than my RAMI BD. Would be interesting to carry them both IWB for a while and really see if there is a felt difference. LOVE my RAMI BD.
-
My next, will probably be a ccw pistol. The Glock 43 Single Stack Subcompact 9mm soon to be released. This looks interesting, since I have a G26.
-
I am pretty well set for pistols at the moment but I continue to be enticed by the H&K VP9. I certainly don't need one but I like the way it feels in the hand and the trigger seems good. Not a huge fan of the paddle mag release but could probably get used to it.
If I got one I'd want to carry it, though, and that is where it would get expensive. New holster, mag carriers, extra mags, and if it worked well, spare pistol. *sigh*
Good thing I am effective at talking myself out of purchases LOL

Either a Accu-Shadow, 97B or a Grand Power. I find the Grand Power's extremely interesting with the rotating barrel and what not.

Thanks for the positive comments guys. :)
The finish actually was a little rough (it looked tarnished and kind of flat) since it was used (and originally from North Carolina so a bit more humidity than here), but I spent quite a while with a microfiber and Renaissance Wax to clean it up.
I removed it from its plastic bag and started to dry buff it with the microfiber and found I was pulling a tiny bit of finish rust (yes I know the bluing is an oxidized finish).
So I started waxing it and just polished as I waxed. I used the wax and not any polish so that I would minimize removing any Bluing.
Tough to do when you are trying to remove another form of oxidation.
At first there was some brown then gradually each coat got less and less brown on the cloth until I got to the finish you see here.

I got some trigger time on a Rami and a shield side by side today. I would like to acknowledged that besides the fact that these two pistols are both sub compact 9's, the similarities end there. They are in a different class, not an apple to apple comparison. The shield is far more concealable/EDCable, lighter, thinner, I could pack it around IWB on a daily basis and not even know it was there. I like it a lot for that purpose. As I suspected, the Rami is a well made, accurate, reliable firearm that feels great in the hand, has higher capacity, and is a pleasure to shoot, It's a really solid little gun. I loooove it. The price difference is substantial 200+ which could be a factor. Of course I have a holster mold for the shield and not the Rami, that is a big plus in favor of the Rami. Decisions, decisions.... I'd have to sell a gun to do it (I have several that never see the light of day), but I may end up with both... Shhh don't tell the wifey. :)
-
RFG,
if you shot a stock RAMI you would not believe just how good it is with some trigger work.
My RAMI (actually the wife's since she took it from me) has the smoothest double action trigger I have EVER tested on a gun, no creep or increase in pressure just a smooth 6.5lb. pull. It has had full polished action, springs, and a shadow hammer, that's it internally. Single action is as crisp as any customized cz. Just an FYI to tempt you more.

I bet. I have an sp-01 that I want to have a trigger job done on. Or do it myself. I've done a few 1911's and glock trigger mods, but the CZ internals look a bit more challenging for a novice to mess with. I already liked the trigger on the rami, it has over a thousands rounds threw it and may have been worked, the guy who owns it never leaves anything factory for long. I should have asked him. I'll find out. There was no comparison between the trigger on the shield and the RAMI. I'll have another CZ in short order either a p01 or RAMI. I'm glad I found this site it has renewed my passion for the Brand.

The safety models are much easier than they look. If you have already dug into a 1911, ill bet with a little research you would be fine taking apart a CZ safety model. There is good support here on the forums as well.

For sure 1911's aren't exactly simple. I'm always ready to at least give it a try. My understanding is that the safety modles yield a better trigger anyway. Is that a correct assumption. My sp01 is a safety modle.
-
The safety model should technically have a better trigger, but most people can't even tell a difference. With even a tiny bit of custom work there is no noticeable difference. David from CGW has many posts regarding this belief.

Agreed. I have yet to hear anyone state clearly why a decocker mechanically cannot achieve a trigger as good as a safety model. I am not saying there is no reason, just that i have asked the question many times and have yet to receive a clear answer on the matter. It seams to me that the decockers are just more cumbersome and time consuming to work on. So it may not be a matter of "cant" but rather "less likely to" due to the added complexities in the CZ decocker design. In my experience a CZ may have to be torn down more than a few times to get things prefect. At this point i can strip a safety model in a few minutes, a decocker on the other hand would take me significantly longer. To add to that the decockers have a few quirks that one can muck up on reassembly that safety models do not have. So in the end, decockers are just less friendly for DIY gunsmiths. With enough experiences i am sure the gap between the two could be narrowed but i do not believe the decocker will ever be quite as friendly as a safety model.
-
RFG,
another great thing about the safety model CZ's is the internals are exactly the same whether RAMI, CZ75, or CZ97 they are all the same so once you learn one you have learned to work on all of them.
Okay there are some exceptions, OMEGA and the SA come to mind but you get the idea.
That interchangeability is great. I had to remind my wife today that the 18 rnd. SP01 magazine fits right into her RAMI. She snapped it in and shot it empty without a hiccup.
-
I couldn't notice a difference in the stock triggers of my Rami Bd, Phantom or 75 B. Of course now the Rami BD and Phantom have been tweaked, so big difference between them and the 75 now[emoji6]. Still deciding what to do with the 75B.
The Rami was the first firearm I ever tore apart. The Phantom was a whole different beast the first time. Heck, with the way everyone talks about how easy the safety models are to tear down, the 75 should be a cake walk. [emoji2][emoji2][emoji2]

With GOD, and youtube anything is possible.

picked it up. and, in LUV! way fun to shoot.. I didn't know it but it had some upgrades I didn't notice at purchase.. like new stainless bushing, Wilson steel mainframe with integral magwell, extra magazines, has original grips and Hogue overmolded finger groove grips.. etc.
shoots awesome.. I did put thin grips on it.. WOW, really feels good and shoots to POA more instinctively.. and I had no idea of 'soft' the recoil of a .45 is in a full size steel gun.. makes me want... more! in different calibers.
cheers

Is that in 9 or 40? I really want one, like really really really want one. Although I am not sure what role it would hold for me.

I was in a quandary over my next pistol until I happened across a 75 on a facebook BST group last week. I was wanting a 07 or 75, but needed a G40.
So now that I found a 75 my next is supposed to be a G40, I need a 10mm before next hunting season as my woods gun. I sold my old g20 because I didn't reload at the time (5 years back) but now I'm ready, I have brass and dies all I need is a gun.
Of course that could change if anything comes around at a deal I can't resist...

Looks like next up will be a 9mm SP01 Tactical. I have a chance to get a new one delivered for $600.

It is in 9mm. The few hundred rounds i have put through it so far have felt like cheating due to the overall weight and the crisp 2lb trigger out of the box. I also do not currently reload or shoot any pistols in 40 S&W. The California models do not pop up too often around here. Availability figured into my decision to pick one up as well. It is possible that i will find more love or a use for 40 in time. I plan on picking up a slide in 40 down the road for use on a few of my 9mm CZ75 frames so i can experiment and learn more about the caliber.

What is the role of the gun, or its intended purpose by cz? Is it a limited or open class gun? What is the overall weight like? Did you keep those sights. or are you putting target sights/reflex sights on?

Due to my total lack of experience with any kind of competition i cannot answer some of your questions. I have heard some folks like them for steel challenge? The CZ USA site says "Built from the ground up for IPSC competition". The total weight is 2.83 lbs -vs- an SP-01
2.400 lbs. I installed a CZC FO front sight before i shot it. The stock front was a flat black post. I like the stock rear sight, though it could be a bit deeper. The role of the TS for me is that it told me to buy it, in the end i just do what the CZ's tell me. I am working on post about the mechanical differences of the TS and other CZ models. You should see it in the next few days on the forums.

Not my next but we ended up trading my wife's Ruger SR9C for a Walther CCP. The CCP is almost as easy to rack as her SR22 and the gun fits her hand better to boot.

I want one, but I don't have the money right now... :'(
-
The cz75 compact is my first pistol. I'm getting used to it and love going to the range. Its addicting as I can feel getting more comfortable and see the progress every session. Hell of a lot better than golf LOL.
Anyway, I was warned that I wouldn't be able to stop at one. Really considering the cz75 or Beretta 92.
-
There is a lot that I would like to own! But my next purchase will be my first poly pistol a s&w mp 9 or a cz 09. I don't like striker fired pistols but the mp 9 impressed me! The s&w is cheaper and I can get a unissued mp from buds so next week I will have it!
-
The P-09 will make you a happier person.

I checked out a couple of CZ P-09s at my LGS yesterday. The more I handled them, the more I wanted one. Lack of funds made me leave them behind. It was like playing with puppies. I know they wanted to come home with me, but I just couldn't make it happen. :(
It was also Glock days at my LGS. I'm sure Glock makes some great handguns, but they just don't trip my trigger. ;)

Well I have a hole lot of CZ'S & would like to add a 40 caliber to it. I do have the CZ40b but want one more CZ in 40S&W. I don't know what to go with? A P-06 or a full size CZ75b in 40S&W? The 75 will be like a $100.00 more when I get done putting on all things the P-06 come's with. Like the rubber grips & night sights. Both will get steel guide rods & new G/R springs. I will carry it & I already carry my CZ75bd or the 75compact,p-01 & sometimes the 97B. So carrying a full size with the weight is no biggie for me. What say you? Thanks.

Have my second CZ 100 (fixed sight model) waiting for me to get back home and pick it up. Then it might get shipped off to David ASAP to let him check it out in detail and, possibly see if he can work his magic to make it's trigger resemble my Sig P250 SC.
Still have my Sig P250 C and Ext. Barrel, NS P-07 Duty on layaway for about another month, then will finally get around to picking up a PX4 SC.
Thinking I might start searching for a S&W 6946 as well; even though it's been discontinued for years, the sorta-kinda pseudo DAO interests me. Anyone have any experience with it, be it good or bad?
Edit:
Going to pass on the 6946, as I got some mess with one a few days ago and just wasn't feeling it...

Well I wasn't planning on anything this year but........[emoji57] I've got a Taurus Tracker 990 on the way. SS and 6 1/2" BBL.
I'm not even close to being set up for reloading yet, so since I need scope practice for my hunting pistol, I thought I'd save a little cash and shoot .22's. I've also got a Bushnell trophy XLT (same as on my .44) on the way so I hope I get more used to shooting that scope[emoji6] I know, I know, how's that saving cash. But hey I get a new pistol and the math works for me[emoji2][emoji2]
To make matters worse, I dropped by an LGS to get some .22's. Did a price check on a couple pistols. Both were out of stock for him but when he can get them.....
CZ SP-01 .9mm $600 OTD
CZ 97B $620 OTD
So I think I'm saving up one of the two (or both[emoji57][emoji6])

I've heard the Webleys are even nicer than the Enfields. I have to start looking to find a box or two of .38 S&W before I can try it out. The No2Mk1* has the bobbed hammer for double action only use (and still has the early WWII wood grips).

Unfortunately, I was greedy and got seduced by both a Sig P938 Equinox and S&W 6906. When my wallet bounces back I'm going to look at a 75B. After that, an STI Guardian (or maybe in reverse order if the price is right...) That'll be quite a while, though (like CHRISTMAS...)

Other than my P-01, I shoot it better than anything else. From the very first shot, I felt like I'd been shooting it all my life. If I find a reasonably priced 645, I'm snatching it.

Does my new to me Izzy count.
It is an IZH46 not an M but it does not matter it is a fantastic practice tool.
I shoot it more than all more "regular" handguns combined, something about the neighbors objecting if I set up targets in the back yard and firing off the 97BE SA.
I practice with this at 10 meters and 25 yards, This is a fantastic tool to hone your skills.
The 11" barrel and 430 fps pace, makes you focus real hard on follow through on your shots. If not you pull the shot everytime.
I had it only a few days and had to start modifying the grips on it, now they fit my big paws. I literally cannot fit the palm rest as my hand extends all the way to the base of the grip. List of to do's is to partially stipple the grips, make a palm rest that will fit my hands, and refinish the grip .

When I listed my Cajunized CZs for sale recently, I fully expected to be left with one but they all sold... this put me in a position to pick up something new :) I realized I wanted to give polymer another shot.
The short list I started with was a CZ P-07, a Walther PPQ or an H&K VP9. I couldn't get comfortable with the P-07 so the field narrowed to the Walther or the H&K. The only thing the Walther had going for it in my book was a marginally better trigger - for my needs the VP9 trumped it in every other way so it was an easy choice: I went with a VP9.
First time out with it my groups halved. Dang! I guess I'll keep it ;-)

No new CZ's lately but I did just bring home a brand new 6.5in S&W 500, just waiting on ammo now.

BUT I AM SURE IT IS FUN!

Ya I ordered some from underwood and it was 2.60 I believe a round.
That's alright tho I'll get setup to reload for it and get it under 20 cents a round. I wanted a big bore but don't need all that power I hear 13grs of unique behind a 440gr bullet is very pleasant to shoot.

I shoot it more than all more "regular" handguns combined, something about the neighbors objecting if I set up targets in the back yard and firing off the 97BE SA.
I practice with this at 10 meters and 25 yards, This is a fantastic tool to hone your skills.
The 11" barrel and 430 fps pace, makes you focus real hard on follow through on your shots. If not you pull the shot everytime.
I had it only a few days and had to start modifying the grips on it, now they fit my big paws. I literally cannot fit the palm rest as my hand extends all the way to the base of the grip. List of to do's is to partially stipple the grips, make a palm rest that will fit my hands, and refinish the grip .
Neat, never seen anything quite like it.

Picked up my Sig P239 this afternoon, Nitron finish with fiber/night front and Siglite rear sights. Ran 75 rounds through it, 50 of Freedom Munitions 100gr ammo and 25 Hornady Critical Defense. No problems and remarkably accurate. I think it could replace my Ruger LCR as my small carry gun of choice. It's rather surprising how small and light this pistol is, weighs about the same as my LCR and as you can see in the photos, it's smaller. The extended magazine in the photo holds 7 rounds and the flush fit mag holds 6.

Going to play with it for awhile to see how it handles, then probably send it to guy who is certified in applying Cerakote.

Hi Tok36,
It is an air pistol for .177 cal pellets far more accurate than anyone can do justice, used in competition 10 meter air pistol competitions.
Not in my case as I could never shoot that well. But I am always working on it.

Thanks! I've seen several of these over the last couple of months and have been contemplating whether I really wanted one or not. I also seen these go for nearly as much as a NIB PCR which is crazy. But I think it's cause it is different then what is being offered and knowing that it was used by a country's national police much like the desirability of a firearm that can be proven used by our own FBI.
I own a Phantom and BD Police, and just love how both feel and work.

Ok, so today I went to my LGS and picked up a CZ 2075 Rami. I wasn't as excited as I thought I would be.
My little finger doesn't fit on the grip. I prefer that it does and have put Pearce Grips on my other magazines where needed.
But .... I did get to handle a CZ 75 Compact. Whoa ..... now that is my next gun .... maybe.
Can someone tell me if the CZ 75 Compact has the B (Block)?
I wouldn't have bothered too much but this last week I actually dropped my 75B in Brushed Stainless!!! :-[
Luckily .... there wasn't one in the chamber and there was no visible damage to the pistol, magazine, or the even the tile floor in my bathroom. Yea.
Fact is, my pants were not really all the way up anyway as I was exiting the water closet (toilet).
I prefer the Galco Jak-Slide holster and after all these years and a Jak-slide for almost every pistol I own; this is the first time one has ever hit the floor.
So, since I do often keep one in the chamber I now figure a Block may be a good idea after all. After all, I am not getting any younger and my trips to the bathroom are more frequent than they used to be.

You can modify a Pearce grip to fit on the Rami. Works great, I had one, I just prefer wrapping my pinky around the bottom.

The CZ compact / P-01 /PCR models come equipt with firing pin blocks.
Here is an easy way to tell. If it has a hole in the rear of the slide it has an FPB (unless someone has removed it). The hole is for the roll pin that retains the firing pin in the FPB CZ's. The Non FPB models do not have the hole, they are designed differently and use a retaining plate at the back of the slide to hold the firing pin in place.
Here is a picture to illustrate. (The CZ97 in the picture has a FPB)

You guys are great!
Thanks for the valuable information and even the photo!
Yea, well I have the CZ bug. Had it for awhile and I don't mind. There is a Show here locally this week and now I will go with renewed interest looking for a CZ 75 Compact.
Thanks again, "Y'all."

Next handgun depends on how the interview I have on Friday goes in CA. If I get the job, I have to snag an SP-01 Shadow before I move, because it might be my last chance. O0 If I don't get the job, it will likely be an XD-S for summer carry in Texas. Or if I end up being forced to move back 'home' to NY, my next handgun will be... nothing... for a long time while I wait for a pistol permit application to go through. :-[

I like the XDs 45.
Not a fun gun to take to range but it carries and conceals easy.
Not fun because the grip is aggressive and it does have a hard recoil.
I especially like the paddle holster included in the kit.
It is adjustable and goes on and off the belt easy.

How do you like the LCR? I am about to pick one up in .22Lr. Just for a trail/snake gun.
-
I'm overall very happy with my LCR. Been my primary carry gun for over 2 years, according to my shooting log, I've run 1250 rounds through it so far without a single problem. The grip really soaks up recoil, I normally carry Buffalo Bore 158gr +P LSWCHP, 125gr +P JHP ammo or Federal 129gr +P Hydrashoks. They are very controllable in this gun, my S&W 442 is brutal to shoot using the same ammo. I practice with a 148gr HBWC over a mild charge of Bullseye, it's reasonably accurate and I can shoot 50 rounds without stressing my hands. Normal range session is 50 rounds of target ammo and 10 to 20 rounds of defense ammo.

I had a 642, so basically the 442 in a different finish. The +P rounds out of that where quite brutal to shoot.
I am sure I will have no problem slinging .22 down range :D

Got the P250 C "freed" from layaway a little while ago, so it will be waiting when I get home in a few weeks. Now to finish working on the balance for the extended barrel, night sight P-07 Duty!
I also picked up a LNIB Gen 4 G19 w/N.S. and, put a couple of FNH pistols on layaway; a NIB N.S.-equipped FNS-9 and then a used FNP-9 DAO. Pardon the vendor-supplied pictures lol, you guys know I will put up better ones after I take delivery of them...

Today I went to a Gun Show in a neighboring suburb near Houston, (Pasadena, TX.).
I was looking for a CZ 75 D Compact, P-01, SP-01, or something along those lines.
There were several to choose from and I decided on the CZ 75 P-01 Cal 9 Lugar NIB. In fact, the seal wasn't even broken on the case.
The P-01 makes #4 after the P-07, a CZ 75 B in Brushed Stainless, and a CZ 97 B.
I choose this to use as my primary concealed carry. I have been switching off too much lately between a few of my favorites.
There were several choices available but in the end I chose the P-01 with the rubber grips, the rail, and the alloy frame.

That appears to be a Post War pre-P1 Walther P38, of which I own two of. Mine were German Police trade in Pistols.
Yours may be that also, or a Commercial P38. Both German and French Police Trade in Pistols came into the USA about two decades ago.
Your Pistol is not a P1, as it lacks the frame re-enforcement bolt in the frame.
(http://www.hunt101.com/data/548/3949P38s_3.jpg)
WWII P38 and 2 Post War P38's
Also note that mine have proven accurate and reliable, but I have found post War P38/P1 Magazines to vary considerably in quality.
Also inspect the twin Recoil Spring Guide Rods for wear. As some were plastic, they can become very worn.
I replaced my plastic Recoil Spring Guide Rods with ones made of Steel.
-
Congratulations to everyone with new purchases!
-
jwc007, Have you tried the ProMags for the P38? That's what came with the gun. Midway has them for $21 and I can pick them up myself and save the shipping.
I usually stay away from ProMags. I see CDNN has Walther brand for $39, I may just go that way.

Oh no! They have one in green?
Went to the range today. Put about 200 rds through the P-01. Function and accuracy was flawless. I have decided that this will be everyday primary carry.
Just feels perfect in my hand.
The other pistol I took today was a BHP that I just put Hogue finger groove rubber grips on. Figured it would be a nice homage to John Browning to shoot the CZ P-01 and the BHP. The BHP is one of those that recently became available from some foreign country was up-grading. My brother bought 3 of them and this one was Parkerized. It was a gift. I love it and with the Hogues it doesn't slide in my grip and bruise my hand anymore. All in all a very successful day.
Really love the CZs. Wonder which one I will get next?

Ok so here is another question for you.
What is the hole with the vertical pin visible just in front of the beaver tail?
Some say it denotes a Military or Police pistol but that still doesn't explain what it is actually for?
Sorry if this has been asked before.
-
That's the hammer pin retaining pin. When you pull it apart you may need that hole to push the retaining pin out.
-
Indeed, the pin in question stops the hammer pin from backing out. It is accessible once the sear cage is removed from the frame.

Nope! Have never tried the ProMags in a P38 or P1. You might try shooting it with your ProMags to see just what happens before buying any additional Magazines.
Sometimes you can rehab a ProMag Magazine by just replacing the Spring with a Wolff Spring.

Thanks for the reply. I ended up ordering 3 surplus mags from RTG in AZ. I'll see how this works out.

I was thinking to get a Glock 19 for my next handgun but yesterday I got my hands on a CZ SP-01 compact and, like other CZ's, it fits my hands very well.
So for now, I don't know which one to pick up.
I know, this is a CZ forum but which of these 2 guns would you guys pick up?
I have shot already the full size SP-01 tactical and the Shadow but shoot the compact just the same as his big brothers?

I would go for the CZ SP-01 over the Glock 19 - CZ ergonomics, DA/SA hammer fired design win for me.
(I love my CZ75B Compact, so I expect the SP-01 compact will eventually join the family)

How will this gun be used? A G19 is a good gun but not particularly ergonomic compared to a CZ compact. The CZ is heavier to carry though.
My CZ compact shot every bit as good as the SP-01 I had. Both guns had the CGW treatment and the compact had the best trigger of all of my CZs.
-
I have a CZ P-09 and a would like a smaller gun as an back-up.
And yes the ergonomic from the CZ are much better then from the Glock.
The CZ is a little bit heavier but that's not a problem for me.
Lot to think about it lol.
Thanks for your input. :)
-
You might consider a RAMI. Very concealable, good capacity and very accurate for such a short barrel. Plus, the alloy frame makes it a bit lighter for carry while still being heavy enough to make shooting it a pleasure.

As Birds Away said the Rami is an excellent choice, my wife still lets me shoot mine from time to time, the rest of the time it is always on her person.
Another great choice that is just as light as a Rami and the size of a CZ75 compact is the Tristar C100. light weight about the same as the plastic guns with an alloy frame and the CZ shooting characteristics for unbelievably low prices.
I really like mine, (it is my daily carry gun) I have it heavily modified for about the cost of some stock CZ's or glocks for that matter.

Match Champion, nice! I think that is my next handgun but with adjustable sights.
-
I didn't realize it but a 75B Omega was my next gun. Just walked into the LGS to kill some time....
-
Killing time in a gunshop generally isn't a cheap pastime for me. Lol. I may just have to stop out there tomorrow morning and see if he has a SP01 or a P01 under the glass.
-
P-01!
-
I'm down to (I think[emoji6]) only four pistols on the list.
1. Ruger SRH Alaskan .44
2. Sp-01 Tactical .9mm
3. P-01
4. And a .45. ( Either 97B/bd or a Ruger SR1911) I'm thinking the Ruger[emoji2]
-
I was thinking to get a Glock 19 for my next handgun but yesterday I got my hands on a CZ SP-01 compact and, like other CZ's, it fits my hands very well.
So for now, I don't know which one to pick up.
I know, this is a CZ forum but which of these 2 guns would you guys pick up?
I have shot already the full size SP-01 tactical and the Shadow but shoot the compact just the same as his big brothers?
If it was me ... I would buy both of them.
One first and the other in layaway? Whatever works.
You can never have enough CZs.
As for the Glock 19; I have one slightly modified. I really like it. For me just not enough room in the trigger guard or maybe just the ergonomics of the gun. My trigger finger doesn't like the serrations and the distance between the finger and the trigger guard. It shoots great especially with the reduced trigger pull.
-
If I could I probably would but here in the Netherlands we are allowed to get only 5 guns. :(
The Glock 19 I have seen is also slightly modified, lighter trigger pull, a short reset and truglo fiber-optics sight.
Some consider to get the CZ Rami but I have not seen one yet in the local gunshops I have visited, but it's a nice looking gun though. :)
-
I have a Type 56 Chinese SKS on the way from J&G. I'm looking forward t my first adventure in the world of cosmoline.
-
Well I thought it was going to be a Ruger Alaskan .44 mag. ( in the process of ordering one through a local dealer)
But...... I walked into the sporting goods store to get a cargo net. On my way out I quickly glanced at the used pistols. Saw a used P-01, one mag no case. So... My next is a P-01[emoji2] '08, hardly looks shot, don't think it's ever been in a holster, just a couple nicks.
(http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/06/19/1c0c0f75fac6d35d0edf5ebd2393d5a8.jpg)
I didn't think $400 OTD was too bad. Wish it had two mags but oh well. While I was waiting to be waited on, a guy came walking by and immediately his eyes shot to the P01. If I wouldn't have bought it he would have[emoji6]
So my "next" one is now the Alaskan. I go on vacation next week so hopefully I'll be able to pick the Ruger up when I get back. Then I'm done for awhile, I've got to save up for more ammo[emoji2][emoji2]
-
Nice purchase, I think $400.00 OTD is a good price. Have fun shooting it.
-
Thanks FJ. Some Cajun goodies will be in the future. My Rami is my carry pistol. This may get some winter carry but for now it doesn't have a purpose. Maybe if the wife starts shooting it will be her range pistol. Always mine of course, but she can borrow it. [emoji2][emoji2][emoji2]

Well I won a S&W Model 10-5 on GB this week. This was one of those unexpected wins at $301!

Gratz Rip! Classy looking model.
Thanks. We hardly ever see CZ's around here.
Whats a CZ? Checkered Zebra? ;D
Gratz on the P-01 CD.

Congrats on the great buy, CD. I found out tonight that my old P01 is returning home. We have a group of friends that trade/sell among ourselves all the time and one of them had run up a considerable deficit. So he decided to cure that by returning to me my fully Cajunized P01. I can't wait to get her back in the fold. ;D
-
Ordered a SP01 tactical thru my lgs. Could have got it about 50$ cheaper before fee online, but figured "support your local lgs" for once. Well, when I went to pick it up, he wrote it up for 715. Had to remind him what he had quoted me. Still paid 673. Cant blame him for wanting to make a bigger profit, but come on now. Still very happy. Took it out yesterday, and shot it with my 226. Wow! Impressed. I had already cajunized and dryfired about 1000 times. Racked the slide about 150 times. Still got 2 ftf in the first 50 rounds fired, but after that, the next 200 were flawless (and bleeped accurate). It beat my 226 for accuracy. Not by much, but it did. Next range session will be P09 vs SP01. Cant wait ;D
-
That match will be interesting. I have a Sig 228 from Exeter, it is over rated compared to Cajunized CZs.
-
Just picked up my next one today. This is the CZ that I was looking for when it all started, and which has been eluding me for years. It was produced in 2012 and apparently was found in the CZ-USA warehouse recently, so they threw in a set of full checkered cocobolo grips and a P-01 mag before they sent it out to my dealer. A NIB CZ 75D Compact PCR! And he also had 7 Scorpion 30 round mags that I kindly took off his hands since I have been unsuccessful in getting them online!
-
CZ75 SA 40 S&W incoming for 75 longslide project. This is the last one for a while, for real this time...
-
Henry lever in 22 mag, call me old fashion but it reminds me of the red rider as a child and lever is making a comeback!
-
I have 2 Henry 22 lever actions. They are fun and accurate. The kids also love them. Nice buy.
-
I want to add a 2nd SP01 Shadow, and a SIG P226 X6 Supermatch. Working up funds and availability..
-
I have a P07 on the way, hopefully it arrives tomorrow!

Congrats BA! It's great when one returns home to roost. I had a S&W Highway patrolman that I had to trade because I owed some money to family about 15yrs ago. I was able to by back at the original agreed price last year[emoji6]

Trading off my Ruger Mini 30 Tactical for a Henry steel frame Big Boy in 45 Colt adding a 4 inch Ruger Redhawk or 4 5/8 inch Bisley Blackhawk to go with it.

A used SIG Sauer P220 should be arriving at my local FFL tomorrow.

My Dad just passed along this H&R Premier 22 Rimfire to me. He bought it from an old Navy buddy who needed some money back in the early 60's. I think he paid less than $10 for it. It is patent dated Oct. 8, 1895. From what I have read, it could have been manufactured anywhere from 1905 to 1941. It's a bit rough, and the hand-to-ejector star interface is screwed up, so the cylinder doesn't always rotate properly. I will be trying to locate parts to get it fixed up and shootable.

P.S.- he also gave me a partial box of 22 Shorts marked at $0.95, purchased from Boscovs, probably in the early/mid 70's.

Congrats Rock-it. It's always nice to get those family hand downs. I hope you can get her fixed up. That's a nice old pistol there[emoji6]

Went the cheap route today and got a Taurus 709 Slim for $215 shipped. Apparently it got a very good review in one of the rags so we'll see.

Three new kids I gotta feed....
Scored my second (old but NIB) CZ 100. Paid a lil' more than I probably should've @ $425, but I couldn't let it get away, being that they are so highly sought after. ROTFLMAO! [emoji57]
Also picked up a LNIB Gen 4 Glock 19 from a vendor in New York that came with 3-10 rd mags, three finger rest Pearce extensions, installed Mepros and Talon grips, and an extra recoil spring/guide rod for $450.
Finally, snagged a new P250C with Mepros from Bud's for $443, then swapped the FCG into the Compact Small grip module I snagged a while back.

Identical to my other one and, every other one I've handled. Actually seems to have a little less overtavel, but that could be due to being brand new also.

I have one of those and it's been great, so far. That said, I am more inclined to carry it's larger sibling, an older Taurus Gen 3 PT111.
There are times, I can't conceal the slightly thicker PT111 though.

Just picked up the latest edition to my Old Dog collection. A FEG Hi-Power clone from AIM Surplus, listed as Israeli law enforcement trade in.
The others are a Beretta 92S Italian Police trade in, a CZ83 Israeli trade in, a Smith & Wesson Model 10 Victoria Australia Police Arsenal trade, and a Glock 23 police trade.

Nice buys.
I got one of the BHP only the one I got had been Parkerized. I put a Hogue rubber grip on it (with the finger grooves) and I really like it.
Before the Hogue the hammer was biting my hand. With them it doesn't. I guess it doesn't slide around in my hand anymore.
Either way I am pleased.
-
Did not see this topic.
Last April it would have been my CZ-82 & EG Makarov in the same deal, then a Bulgy followed by the Russian Mak in .380 Auto.
Recently a pair of Polish P-83s. No idea how to post photos.
My next handgun might be a CZ-83. :)
oreocat: those are superb photos of yours.
-
My next long term project is a CZ75 compact long slide, AKA Shadow Compact. I jusst to find a old used compact host first and start making modifications on it. I am very excited, but finding an old used compact frame or surplus compact is proving to be difficult.
-
I'd like to find an all steel 75 D compact.
-
No such animal that I've ever seen or heard of.
-
My next handgun is going to be a nighthawk custom 1911 GRP
-
I think I've posted something on here before. :)
As of now, I want mine to be a 2075 Rami.
-
Picked up a EAA Witness Stock 2 9mm today. Going back to the range to shoot it tomorrow ;D
(http://i.imgur.com/GFDSkAf.png)
-
I only bought half a gun, but since it is a .44 magnum, that counts as a full gun purchase (barrel and scope for TC Contender)
-
See how fast things change......two post earlier I said a 2075 Rami. Then I went and bought a FEG PJK 9HP Hi Power clone. You never know. :)
-
SP-01 Shadow from CGW.
-
ProtekTy- That's a beautiful handgun :) How was you trip to the range?
-
Thanks! Stock trigger is not too good especially DA. Will be sending it out for a trigger job. Other than that it's a keeper. Feel heavier than my Shadow.
-
Hopefully either a P09 or a M&P 9 Pro. Can't decide if I want another DA/SA or if I should get a striker fired. Hmmmm.
-
Oh come on, the P-09 of course. If you want a striker fired look into a PPQ 5".😀
-
Lol. What Firemanjones said ;D
-
For striker fired I'd say check out the VP9 also. Best striker fired pistol I've ever owned, hands down.
My next will either be a suppressor-ready P-09 ... or perhaps a 9mm 1911 if I can get over the capacity limitation and am in a position to afford a good one: WC or Nighthawk maybe?

-

My initial thought was to get the P09 of course, but then I handled a M&P and the ergonomics really surprised me. I'll have to go to a LGS that has both in stock and compare them side by side.
I've never looked at a PPQ. Thanks for the suggestion!

PPQ, best striker pistol trigger out of the box.

I'm sure I'm the odd duck on this but I was not a fan of the trigger - the take up felt too long and the reset too short for my tastes. The break was crisp though!

I will be getting my new to me 40B today. It will make a nice companion to the 40P. Next will be another Compact and then a 97B.
-
I think the PCR is calling my name. I ended up buying a RAMI BD in 9mm, and like it so much with the 14 round magazine in place that the PCR really appeals to me. It probably shoots about the same (my RAMI is a tack-driver), but the PCR just looks prettier to me. :)
I keep telling myself I don't need it, but keep going back to look at pictures of the pistol. I am afraid I am hooked.
-
Just buy the sucker(PCR)! I can't tell you how happy you will be. Then you can purchase the mag adaptor for a 16 round mag for the PCR or the Mec-Gar 17 round mag.
-
Went to my normal shop this afternoon to order a CZ 1911A1. The owner had a really good deal ($850 delivered) on Remington R1 Carry Government size models. Ordered one of those instead. Looks like I'll have a 3rd R1 variant on Wednesday. I was a bit peeved he'd sold out of the CZ-97Bs he had in stock, 9 of them in 5 days. I'd put aside funds for the 1911 and CZ-97B, guess I'll wait for a restock on those.
-
REPLY #1000! for this thread. 8)
My next want gun is a Scorpion Evo.
-
Really been eyeballing a Sig Sauer P320 lately. If that interest falls off then I'm searching for a 1911.

I have a S&W 457 coming home this week.

And since acquiring this it opens up another option, as I have a potential trade offer involving my P250C for an excellent condition P-07 Duty. Hoping it goes from a potential trade to a done deal!
-
I took the plunge and ordered a PCR today. I found a "factory blemish" model with full factory warranty in 99% condition for $429. I just could not ignore that price. Looking forward to being a new PCR owner, and plan a detailed side by side comparison with my RAMI. Should be fun.

I had a nice 457 at one time. I wouldn't mind picking up another one.

Very Nice S&W 457! 8) Congratulations! :)

I'm working on picking up a nice old S&W 686-2 4" that the owner shot for qualifications and stored it even since the late 80's...that or the new Grand Power X-Calibur or a Ruger GP100 Match Champion.
-
Stopped in one of the local gun shops this afternoon. They had a CZ97 BD in the case, for the first time in several months. I tried to resist. I even left that store and drove to Cabela's. Next thing I know, my car drove me back to the other store (a mind of its own). So now I have a deposit on a CZ97. I have a few days before it finishes its sentence in DPRI gun-purgatory and I can go bring it home.
-
Congrats on the BD. It's kind of nice having a self drivin car isn't it[emoji6]

As long as it doesn't drive me to other places to go and spend too much money between now and when I can get the 97. My computer has been acting up the last two days, so I will probably need to replace it soon (goes into a screen saver nap that can only be interrupted with the power button).

After all of the talking, I finally bought a used CZ P-09 today. I would have never guessed that I would like a poly framed gun this much ;D There is nothing that I don't about this gun, except maybe it's appetite for 9mm ammo. I've never went through a 100 rds that fast before ;)
-
Got a CZ 97B, CZ 75B in Brushed SS, P-07 Duty, and P-01.
Guess there is one of these at the next GS that is calling my name!
-
Taking the plunge in a few weeks and gonna get a Sphinx SDP Compact Alpha. Everytime I go home to my one LGS that has them, as well as when I can find one out on the road, I find myself handling them more and more to the point I have to get one so that I can actually shoot it. Did the same thing when I got my first attraction to the P-07 Duty a couple of years ago!
Thinking a P-09 is going to need to join the family as well to round things out. Can't have lil' brother 07 and the rich cousin Sphinx all by their lonesomes!
-
Well.......I wasn't sure what my next was going to be but I was fairly sure it was going to be a compact to go with my new SP01 Tact, so I stopped in at my LGS, they have quite the selection of CZ's in stock 8) almost to many. (the SP01 shadow target II was very distracting)
Anyway I'm there to look at compacts !!! "Stay focused"
So the salesman lays them all out for me
Ramy
75 compact
Pcr
P01
Even a stingray c for comparison
Ramy - to small for me
75 compact - a little on the heavy side
Pcr - perfect
P01 - perfect
I really would be happy with any of the 4 but I like the tactical rail and the de cocker, so P01 it is. I planned on going back tomorrow with cash and buy it, but on my way home I decided to stop by this pawn shop I'd heard so much about and all I can say is holy crap, (gun heaven) they had 10 times the guns of any shop I'd been in and apparently twice as many in the back room, at this point I'm on overload and ready to go home when I spot a gently used P01 with 2 mags and the factory case for $80 less than my LGS, so I pulled the $100 I had in my wallet to put it on a 90 day hold, now the only decision is buy it tomorrow or continue to shop for a better deal.
-
I could not stop at one ,I bought a Beretta 84 B used needs some tlc, I am leaving in a couple minutes to shhot it, then I will tear it down and correct the finish issue when I get back to the shop. Second I have a Grand Power P1 Ultra coming from Buds Gunshop .com along with two extra mags -found those at J&G's,can't wait to shoot that one . I was having control self control issues this past week so what did I stumble into ,a CZ 40B with two mags. I could not resist it ,worked out a final price with them yesterday ,told them I had to think about it ,well I have have it so I will call them back when they open today and get that. I have one other one on my radar the Canik TP9V2,since I already have the TP9sa with 5 mags that one is a no brainer at $329.00 and uses the same mags.I will need to take a break for a while from pistol buying. Off to the range now.
-
I currently have 3 CZ's, P-07, 75b and SP-01 Tact all 9 mm, and all have some CGW upgrades. The P-07 has the entire works from CGW. My go to is SP-01 Tact, and what a awesome weapon. Would like to add a fourth, but they do not make it...yet. I would like to purchase a CZ 97b with ambi-decocker. Being a left-handed shooter, an ambi-decocker is a must. At this point, the closest I can get is a 97bd. I emailed David at CGW several days ago to see if this model could be modified to accept an ambi-decocker and he said no. I guess I will have to wait until they bring this model out, if ever. That's ok. I will just continue to play with the CZ's I already have along with their cousins.

As a reformed 1911 shooter, I have been bitten by the CZ bug and all is well now in 9mm. I may still splash out for an SP-01 Shadow, possibly a Rami, but there are other good guns out there that many rave about.
Not into Glocks, but? Yet many seem to like the Sig 226,, the Walther PPQ, the HK VP-9.
Does anyone rate these on the bucketlist? I am liking the ambi features of the HK!
Never thought I would like plastic guns either, till the p09 and 7.
-
I can't say enough good about the VP9 - best pistol I have ever owned, (Sorry CZs)
After some experimentation with the grip panels the VP9 fits me perfectly and it shoots like a laser. :)
For me it is now the gun all others are measured against.
-
My Grand Power P1Ultra MK12 arrived this afternoon from buds outstanding price and i am already trying to find an excuse to go to the range. You are really getting a lot of value for your money on this one. Wish I had ordered more than two extra mags and i wish they were here already as well. The onlt thing I did not care for is the color of the fiber optic front sight, I can't see the red so I already switched it out to green. For under $700 you get an outstanding trigger with a seriously short rest shorter than any Cz I have ever owned. I had one generic grand power several years ago a stock one and I was very impressed with that gun. This blows that away, this is a pistol that I can compete with out of the box it won't ever need any upgrades. I just need to get a good holster. Now I have not even been to the range yet and I am planning for an Excaliber!
-
My last 2 have been S&W's, got a 915 and a 39-2 recently. Both were priced right, and add some variety to my humble collection of 9x19's. The 915 is a 15 rd doublestack, with a 4 inch barrel, blued slide, Trijicon sights (faint but visible) and aluminum frame. If my CZ 75 is a fullsize, then the 915 is a midsize.
I was looking to add a Star Model 30M to the mix, but came across the 39-2 at the same price and could not pass on it.
Poster above mentioned a short trigger reset; the Smiths are amazingly short on reset, maybe 1/8th of an inch.

I briefly had a P1 Mk7 and can add to what you said Brian, the shortest reset than any other stock pistol I've ever owned. Congrats, looking forward to a full review/report!

I am leaving in ten minutes to hit the range and run the Grand Power P1 for an hour,wish I could stay longer . I will start a new thread with pics next week reality is though I won't have my tech support #1 son back till the following week to put the pics into my website, from their I can them post them . I need to learn how to do this stuff with out my boys help. I am picking up the CZ 40 B this coming Weds. can't wait to shoot that one as well. It's in decent shape. I am putting the Beretta 84B back together today and I will head back to the range over the weekend with that one as well. I will take photos of all of them for the new thread.

Just a quick note on the grand power after my range session ,Outstanding!!!!!!! I will statr a new thread about it. Hope the Cz 40 B shoots as nice as the Grand Power.

Just got an unfired Colt Detective Special in box with papers this week. Colt says it is one of the last to roll off the line in 1995. It was purchased from an 81 year old man who says his wife is making him sell his guns because he is now "too old to have them". It has been sitting in his safe for 20 years. It's beautiful, and I am a very happy camper.

Bulgarian Makarov, importer listed as un-issued, but Classic only claims like new. Well packed in grease.

My preferred local shop has a Ruger LCR 327 Federal that I got to try out. The owner is keeping that one, but ordered one for me. Should be in Tuesday and I hope to pick it up Thursday or Friday. I have an old Rossi '92 I'm thinking of rebarreling to 327 Fed the current 357 barrel's throat is in rough shape.
-
Okay now that I have the Scorpion off the wish list....
Next maybe........
A Dan Wesson 744VH (to go with my 715VH) or,
A Dan Wesson 760 VH or,
A Witness hunter in 10mm or,
A VZ58 or,
Maybe a CZ75 TS.
or.............LOL!
Shhhhhh! Don't tell the wife she thinks I am being good.

My Grand Power P1Ultra MK12 arrived this afternoon from buds outstanding price and i am already trying to find an excuse to go to the range. You are really getting a lot of value for your money on this one. Wish I had ordered more than two extra mags and i wish they were here already as well. The onlt thing I did not care for is the color of the fiber optic front sight, I can't see the red so I already switched it out to green. For under $700 you get an outstanding trigger with a seriously short rest shorter than any Cz I have ever owned. I had one generic grand power several years ago a stock one and I was very impressed with that gun. This blows that away, this is a pistol that I can compete with out of the box it won't ever need any upgrades. I just need to get a good holster. Now I have not even been to the range yet and I am planning for an Excaliber!
It looks cool, is it a decoker? Is the barrel fluted like the Ex?
Jeez, you are killing me with this stuff. I have not even got the Canik I ordered yet!
-
Thinking about a Sig Legion. Cant decide between 229 or 226...
-
Im going to try a Canik T-100

I have recently acquired a CZ 97B, fully Cajunized, and a CZ 75B in .40 that is in the shop for Cajunization as we speak. ;D

Is it a 97B "E"?

97 45ACP AS WELL

No.

Think I will get a Ruger 22/45 five inch and start my nine year old son and nine year old grandson off with it as a single shot first and then move on from there as their skills increase.

Just purchase it today on GunBroker. A Czech National Police surplus CZ75 D Compact, the forerunner to the PCR.

(http://i785.photobucket.com/albums/yy135/stmichps/CZ%2075%20D%20Compact%202.jpg)
Going to play with it for awhile to see how it handles, then probably send it to guy who is certified in applying Cerakote.
UPDATE:
Just got the CZ 75 Compact D back from Automatic Accuracy the other day.
(http://i785.photobucket.com/albums/yy135/stmichps/091.jpg)
(http://i785.photobucket.com/albums/yy135/stmichps/090.jpg)
I had them shorten the reset, put the 13# mainspring, the longer firing pin and lighter spring, reliability package and Cerakote. In addition I've added the XS small dot sights, and VZ Grips.
-
Very nice. Do you have a pic of the sights from the rear?
-
I don't know if this counts, since this is the second time I bought this pistol. The guy I sold it to was wanting to sell it, so I bought it back. I think it will be getting some CGW parts this time around ;)

Nothing wrong with CGW parts.
I am still trying to decide if I want a FO front sight. If i can find some good paint or nail polish, I might try it first.

Picked up a Sig Legion 229 last Friday afternoon and put a Sphinx Duotone on order.

viking499, you might give this a try. I think I would have liked fluorescent green better if I could have found some.

Thanks wd. Came across that one earlier. Picked up some cheap and easily removable paint from Wally World today to experiment with. Only got white and bright orange to try.
I really like the CGW front FO during the day. Where it is thin, it really stands out to me because of the daylight on each side when compared to the rear. When it is dark, I have trouble seeing the front sight though. Have been thinking about painting the area around the FO white.

-
I like them. Where can you get them?
-
Possibly a decent CZ-83. It's good not to have almost all of our surplus handguns dependent upon low-cost Russian 9x18 ammo. This could be vulnerable to politicians' future whims, or changing foreign policy.
Might also consider a CZ-75 Compact. Even aside from my CZ-82's superb ergonomics, the feel of the actual shooting gives such clear impressions of Czech precision and engineering.
-
My next handgun is going to be a walther ppq m2 or maybe the hk vp9. Both are supposed to be great guns.
-
I am thinking of getting a GP100 with 5" barrel. Love shooting .357s.
-
Springfield Custom Shop bobtailed Range Officer Champion 9mm. Sent it off 10 weeks ago, just waiting for FedEx to deliver today.
-
Although opportunity and price will likely dictate .... $250 for a CZ75 BD Police would demand action.....
My next planned purchase will probably be a Ruger Single Seven in .327 Fed Mag.
-
I would love to get a CZ TS Orange or a Sig X6. Thanks to the CA handgun roster I cannot purchase a the Sig X6. Thanks to CZ I cannot buy a TS Orange either. So, the money stays in my pocket and I continue to play with my 75 TS 9mm.
-
Just got my Range Officer Champion back for Springfield's Custom Shop. I won the pistol during a charity fund raiser event at one of my shooting and fishing clubs. Bobtail, OD Armory coat on the frame and a trigger job. Heading out to the range this evening to try it out.

copermech the P1 ultra does not have the fluted barred and it's a safety pistol. It is very light for my all day carry and it's very easy to shoot as well as deadly accurate. I need an X-Caliber full size to go with it. Sorry I did not get back sooner.

I put Williams Fire Sights on mine and it's my best scoring handgun in "combat" league, not that I'm very good, but I get more Xs and points with it. Will never part with it.
You'll likely be very pleased with one. 5" is just right for balance and looks and sight radius.
-
My next will be a p226 legion.
-
Just got a chance to fondle the reissued Sig P225. I don't know if it's next, but it is in the top 3.
-
Do you know how it compare to the 239?
-
Longer grip/frame without the old style's mag lip. It uses the same barrel as the P239 and holds the same number of rounds. Weight is roughly the same, it feels lighter due to the size and shape of the frame/grips. The factory G10 grips have the right texture for me. From what I understand it uses a modified version of the P239 magazine instead of the old style P225/P6 mags. I hope Sig makes a 357 Sig conversion kit for it.
Best way to describe the feel it's like a slim framed M11A1 or P229SAS.

Well, I REALLY only wanted the Lemon Squeezer, but the other 3 were thrown in for the same price!

My next long term project is a CZ75 compact long slide, AKA Shadow Compact. I jusst to find a old used compact host first and start making modifications on it. I am very excited, but finding an old used compact frame or surplus compact is proving to be difficult.
What is this shadow compact you are talking about. I have a pre-b compact that I need to do something with. Can you just slap a full sized 75 (shadow) slide on the compact frame?

Either a 97BD or an SP-01 Tactical, knowing folks will say "both." PCSing overseas in the summer, so the next one will be my last one for a few years ... maybe ever depending on who wins in 2016.

Decided to take a chance, Sig P225A1. Should be able to pick it up Friday or Saturday. The shop has an OD P01 I may have to buy too, depending on price.

I had a P225 and loved it. I still regret selling it. The A1 = shorter trigger reset?

Short reset trigger, night sights, Slightly shorter (1/8th inch) barrel and slide, redesigned frame and magazines. No more lip on the mag that sets in the middle of my little finger. Much lighter and smoother DA and SA trigger than my old P6/P225.

I am a CZ fanboy. Went to a FFL to pick up my latest Christmas present, a CZ-82 (thank you, laserdoc!) and saw my first SCCY.
Not much different in size from a CZ-82/83. For $300 new, might find one in a Christmas stocking near me!
You're gonna love that CZ-82. I do mine. (Btw, thanks to posters on this site, I just got a Fobus MAK1 holster. Fits the CZ-82 perfectly. Highly recommend.)
The only Black Friday shopping I'm going to do tomorrow is for myself. ;D Picking up a Taurus PT111 Millennium G2. Pretty much the same as a Smith M&P or Springfield XD. But hundreds of dollars less money.

Received my 5" GP100 the other week, polished the inside, installed lighter Wolf springs and shims.
I guess that wasn't, enough.
I just purchased a 3" with adjustable rear sights. Now to wait till delivery. Love .357s!
-
Where'd you get the shims from FJ? I'm thinking of getting some for the hammer of my Alaskan.
-
Jumped in on the Lionheart Black Friday deal. Ordered the LH9N-MKII in Patriot Brown.
Reading past experiences on the Black Friday deals they have run, I am guessing I should have in a couple of weeks.
Anyone interested, they are running the LH9 @ $399 including shipping until the November 30th.

Got them here: http://triggershims.com
I called first and spoke with the owner, really nice guy.
Good luck.
-
Thanks FJ. And congrats on the second GP.
-
How do you like your Alasksn? What caliber is it?
I contemplated on one in 44 mag but the ammo is so expensive. That's why
I chose the 3" .357 again.
-
I love it. It's .44 mag. Extremely accurate. Milk jugs at 50 yards.
You're right about the ammo[emoji6] But I'm hoping to get into reloading soon. I've already got a press, just slowly getting my other stuff.
I hunt (if I can ever find game[emoji17]) with a SRH .44mag, 9 1/2". So I picked up the Alaskan for a back up woods gun. Turns out it's a heck of a fun range gun. [emoji2]
Id like to get a GP someday, but for now I've got my Smith Hi way Patrolman for .357. Although my wife seems to like the Smith, so there may be hope for me yet. [emoji6]
Looking forward to hear what you think of the 3" version.
-
Ruger 1911 with a rail.
You gotta love 1911s.
-
My next, I think, will have to be a Jericho 941. Just have to decide if that will be before or after the semi auto 308.
-
To be honest, I never know what my next handgun will be. I tend to buy "used" guns so it'll probably be something I have on the list.

This is my new carry.

My gun budget is taking a huge beating right now, just picked up my Scorpion and a Spikes Crusader stripped lower. Both of those are going on Form 1s to become SBRs. Plus the 922r parts for my Scorpion, plus what it is going to take to build my AR-15, it will probably be about June before I think about a new handgun.
Most likely my next handgun purchase will be a CZ, as my Beretta 92A1 really made me fall back in love with DA/SA triggers. Most likely it will be some compact variant, would really like to have a CZ P-01

Is the 3" a 357 or 38 Special model? I had the 38 Special version with Williams Fire Sights and the old style Lett grips. It's now my daughter's "night stand gun", along with a 3 inch S&W model 13 I gave to my son-in law.

Way cool Fireman[emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

Just picked up a 75D Compact. Next on the list is to find a Rami BD.

They are both .357s. I purchased the 3" as a wood gun. I had a 38 Special Model 10 for that reason but felt I needed the more powerful .357 for the larger animals like a bear.

A 1953 Argentina Colt. Just picked it up this morning. Impulse buy. The sights are terrible, the finish is not great, and the trigger pull feels like about 24 pounds.

Funny, I wish it was the full lug. Lol[emoji2]. Maybe by the time I could afford it, they'll have the choice of both.

Nice. I wanted it in patriot brown but they "sold out" about 3 seconds after the sale went live. I write "sold out" because right after the sale ended they magically had the patriot brown back in stock. I'm really digging the double action+. I'm surprised nobody else has given it a shot.

So many pages here! Have I already said how much I've been jonesing for an all steel compact? Keep it stock except for occasionally swapping out the frame from my Matte Stainless! If the compact slide works reliably with the SS frame, I may replace the sights on the Matte to include a FO front. Just need to take care of bills, and be able to pay myself (relatively new company) first!

Ordered a Sphinx SDP Compact with an aluminum frame and a full-size grip. This is a special limited run gun to have a full-size grip that holds the 17-round magazine flush fit. Hoping it will arrive at the FFL by the end of the week.

Since I got my wife that 75 Compact 9MM, I'm now carrying a gun that uses different magazines (P07 .40 S&W).
So, I've been thinking about a nice 75B in stainless steel.
Or, does the 85 use the same magazines as the 75? If so, I might look for one of those.
-

I believe all of the full size guns except the TS can use standard CZ 75 mags. I know the mags are interchangeable between the 75 and the SP-01... And as I understand it, the 85 is essentially just an ambi 75 with a few internal tweaks.
-

Full size 85 and full size 75 use the same mags. Compact 75 and full size 85 will use different mags. HOWEVER full size mags will work in the compact, although hang out the bottom slightly more.

Since cz has been slightly discourteous to my wants i am givin serious thought to a po1 sdp from czc...been looking for a seecamp mouse gun too...seems czc is hard to come by used for some reason..cant be stellar reputation could it?????..youd think they would be stacked deeper than lorcins's at the pawn shop..in all seriousness those 2 are on my radar before iman zero eo's ..depending on the iman eo's i may opt for a ammo and mag run...but i really like that sdp and well seecamp is what you know them to be

Looking at a sub-compact cc pistol. My initial list in order of preference:
Kimber Solo
Walther PPS
Springfield XDS
S&W Shield
Kahr PM9/CM9
Being a lefty, the Kahr and Shield are lower because of the mag release not reversible.

Shield
Kahr
PPS
SOLO (looked into one but hardly found anything good as far as reliability)

I'll try and head up there sometime, I like to keep track of places that have CZs/Clones.

If you've never been in DJ's, you really need too 8), 10-12 display cases packed full and probably twice as many in the back room.

Either a S&W 686 with a 6" Barrel, another Glock (Thinking about getting a 42 or a 43), or a Walther PPK variant (Gonna do some more research on those though.).
-
Just got a Bersa Thunder 380 Plus. Been looking for one for awhile now, and got an email alert yesterday that one was available at a good price. Still looking for that .40 cal Rami deal...
-
I have my carry choices now: CZ P-07 9mm and Walther PPS 9mm. So, I'm not sure what is really needed. A S&W Shield is nice, I have fired two different Shields and both were impressive. I'm not interested in a $650+ pistol, money is tight for a while. There is a used RAMI 9mm at the local range though... Something I lack is a longarm, maybe an AR or AK variant is in order?
-
My next one is a stainless Walther PPK/S .380ACP.
I found one in a excellent condition for ?300,-

As others have said, the gun budget is a bit tight right now especially after Christmas.

I just bought my first CZ an 85 Combat. I'll probably buy a 75Omega Convertible when they come out and even though it cost more than most 22 pistols, I'll probably get a Kadet Conversion.

Well I have "permission" to get a new 1911, and am looking at getting a Dan Wesson Specialist, though feel tempted by a SIG ( much less expensive)

The Sig 1911 is the best on the market IMO, if I were to buy one that would be it. I'm sure it will perform as good or better than the DW.

I may buy a water pistol, if the current dictator has his way that will be all we could get.
-

Sig's are nice, but if it were a choice between a Sig 1911 and Dan Wesson, my money would go to the Wesson in a heartbeat.
While the Specialist in Duty Treat is not inexpensive, it is one of the best values on the market in 1911's. All bar stock parts. Exceptional Customer Service.

No more pistols for me this year, unless I buy/build another Kadet. I may put a 6.5 Creedmoor barrel on a Savage .308 bolt gun, however.

I'm kind of torn between a few.
I want a decked out PO-9 with all the goodies including the slide Milled for red dot.
A Sig Legion 229 in 9mm

I was thinking more along the lines of a small poly, but if I were to go to a small metal handgun, I'd go with a 2075 Rami. Thanks anyway.

My bad
You stated you were looking for a thin 9mm
Since I am not into Poly Gun, I don't think along those lines
Also, the 2075, it isn't thin, it's a Double Stacker, 1.3" wide
Where the Firestar is a Single Stack at 1.1", almost a 1/4 thinner
-
If you are looking for a thinner 9mm. Consider checking out Sigs re-release of the 225-A1
If you want something even smaller I had a 938 and really enjoyed it, just wanted more capacity. It was a 7+1
I believe the 225 is a 8+1.
-

Look at the original Walther PPS, slim, poly, reliable and the price has come down since they came out with version 2!!

True, the 2075 is 1/5" thicker, but hey, it's a CZ. FTR, I'm not a poly guy either, but I think if I'm going to carry I'd be better off with a small, thin, light 9mm, which led me to the Nano. There are a lot of poly handguns that fit what I think I need - I just need to make it down to my LGS and check each out. Thanks anyway DenStinett.

I picked up the old model Walther PPS for $359 New Years Eve. It came with 7 & 8 round mags and I picked up a 6 rounder for it. With the larger back strap it fits my hand just right. I'm even liking the mag release, very easy to use with my trigger finger. I've only had it out once so far because of the weather, but so far I like it.

I have one, it's a great carry pistol and with typical Sig Accuracy. Mine seems to do best with 124gr ammo. Carry ammo is Speer LE 124gr +P Gold Dots.

It balances better than my old style P225 and conceals better too. The grip is much friendlier to anyone with large hands, you don't end up with your little finger crushed on the magazine.
-
Next will probably be much later in the year, but I need to replace a P225 (old style) that i sold several years ago, and replace a (French made, German) Walther PPK that I sold too. Could be an expensive year.

I just saw the 2016 CZ catalog on the CZ USA web site. I've got a new gun to start saving for. A CZ 75 with ambidextrous safeties or decockers, like the P07/P09, with threaded barrel and suppressor sights.

That is correct. I was the only bidder on this sad looking gun. GB usually has a number of CZ trade ins listed. Most have no reserve so if no one else is bidding you can get a deal.

I've been looking for a 1911 to replace the SW1911PD and SR1911CMD that I sold because they didn't "speak" to me. Thinking about a Springfield TRP or Trophy Match. BUT! I just found, what I think is, a fair deal on a CZ97B-E from a friend. I've always thought every American should have a 1911 but mine seem to sit in the safe while the CZ's come out to play. My next is going to be the 97BE!

I don't know what it is about 1911 pistols. I hate them! They have cost me a small fortune over a period of about 40 years. They are overpriced for what you get. Now, everyone and his brother makes one. The euro guns are much more fun to shoot! 9MM Baby, and lots of them!
Then I pick up my one remaining Colt Defender. Massage it a bit. Feel that trigger. Then put it back to bed! O0

Just put a police trade-in M&P 45 Mid size w/night sights on layaway earlier today. No external safety or mag disconnect safety either! Will post pics after I pay it off in a few weeks.
For those not familiar with that specific model, pretty much the same exact dimensions as the M&P 9 full size, achieved by combining the M&P 45 full-size grip/frame and the 45 compact slide and barrel.
Not mine, but gives you an idea:

I used to own one but sold it, I never warmed up to it. Tell you the truth it was unfired, I guess I just prefer a steel gun. It was well built, balanced, and comfortable but I am not a real big fan of polymer.

I'm looking at getting another pre-B 75. My son is coming of age (turns 21 soon), and though he enjoys shooting all of my pistols, he keeps coming back to my old pre B ... the one pistol I'd least like to part with. Ah well, it's a good choice, and the reasons he likes it is the reasons I do too.

Glock 17 Gen 4. Was shooting with some friends at a range in Las Vegas in September trying a bunch of pistols, and the range officer put a G17 in my hands. For the next 10 minutes I was making an ever increasing single hole in the bulls eye. Hmmm . . . I had always dismissed Glocks, and why would I ever want one since I have a P-09 as my plastic HD/competition pistol?
Picked it up at a local gun dealer in January. It's a fine shooter. Do I like it more than my CZs? No, but I like it as much, and I now understand why they are so popular. I'll still use my P-09 for IDPA, but the G17 is a lot of fun to shoot. I immediately put a set of Dawson sights on it with a fixed black rear and FO front. Makes a big difference. So far, I'll keep everything else factory, as I like the trigger pull out of the box.

Picked up my Star Model B Super it appears to be in unissued condition. There are some minor storage dings, but the bore looks to be new and the whole pistol was filled with factory preservative grease. Bluing is complete, no wear on the sharp/expected areas. One of the magazines is new the other shows some very minor wear on the follower, but none on the body. The pistol has Spanish proof marks dating manufacture to 1972 there is also a 72 on the trigger guard. There are what I believe are Spanish Army proof marks on the barrel and frame. The pistol is in much nicer condition than most recent imports I've seen. Not a bad deal for $290 out the door. I'm looking forward to shooting it Sunday afternoon. I've had a few offers from other members of the range where I shoot, may be sold before it gets shot.

Nice find! Looks like you stole it. Appears to the offspring of ac1911 and high power? SAO?

That's a good way to describe the pistol. It is a single action, the trigger pivots like a High Power and the barrel link/locking system is also like a High Power.

Very Nice, Wahoo! I was at a gunshow last week, and one of those caught my eye. The price tag was $299, and it was nowhere near as nice as yours. The finish was rougher, and it had several dings and dents. Not knowing enough about them, I walked away. Seems like you got a sweet deal!

Had been looking for a 32 acp to use for new shooters (sisters and wife.) Stumbled across some NIB Beretta 81 Cheetahs that made their way into the US unannounced. I settled since the CZ 83 isn't made in 32 acp anymore and they're hard to find. Here's a pic of the one I got off of Buds.

My next handgun will be a pocket pistol, probably something in .380acp. I will need a discreet pocket pistol for when the weather starts to get warmer. I already have a CZ-83 in that caliber as my current primary so an added benefit to that is being able to use the same ammo. I will probably go with the Ruger LCP partly because of price and I because I feel it's been around long enough for all the bugs to have been worked out with the newer generation models which been improved over previous ones.

That is one fine shooting revolver! A buddy of mine has one and it is a tack driver! I am a die hard Smith & Wesson fan and had always dismissed ruger double action revolvers but this one has a sweet trigger and great grips and shoots terrific.

Great looking revolver Rock-it3. Congrats!

Very very Nice Ruger Revolver, Rock-it3! 8) Congratulations, and may it serve you well! :)

It is pretty sweet. I picked it up used from Cabelas, but according to the serial number it is 2015 production. It hasn't been shot much, it's in great shape. It's gonna make a nice stable mate to it's bigger brother the Redhawk 44 Mag. I am really liking Ruger revolvers. I can't wait to shoot it.

CZ 75B matted stainless. Only wish that CZ would offer it in decocker version. :(

Last week I went to the range to shoot my GP100 5" and came home with the Walther PPS M2. This was really an impulse buy. I haven't shot it yet but it fits and feels better than my old PPS Original did.

I called him up and he directed me to his Facebook page and I told him what I wanted and he made it for me. Really nice guy to do business with. I paid for the faster delivery and he was right on time. He sent pictures to make sure it was what I wanted, I paid for it and he sent it out Priority Mail.

I'm seriously thinking about a S&W Model 3913.

Every 3rd gen S&W I have shot has had the fastest most crisp reset I've ever seen. I own a 4506 and it is phenomenal. It functions flawlessly, only bad thing is when you carry it you feel like you're carrying a small block engine in your pocket.
-
My gun collection is becoming like Noah's Ark. 2 Firearms to shoot the same caliber. Next up, another 357 Mag. Smith and Wesson 640 engraved. A nice little piece for my wife when her CCW Permit shows up.
-
Sig Sauer P230. A consignment gun at the local shop. Tag says unfired, and that looks to be correct. Someone has owned this for quite a while, since it is marked "W. Germany" on the slide (the P230 was replaced with the P232 in 1996).
-
This is going to be an expensive year. I'm ordering a CZ 1911A1 tomorrow, putting a Dan Wesson 715 (old version) on layaway tonight, may trade my S&W 6906 for an S&W 4506, and will end the year with either a CZ P-09 or P-01 Omega when they hit the streets.
-
... may trade my S&W 6906 for an S&W 4506
I don't know. Those 3rd Gen Smiths are pretty nice.
-
They are! I can find another 6906 easier than a 4506, though. They're both 3rd Gens so I'll still have one.
-
Just picked this up tonight, finally came from Kentucky Gun Co. Haven't done a thing to it or with it, still oily from the factory. Going to use this to make little videos to compliment all the written tutorials on smoothing the action and what not in the gun smithing sub forum. Next pictures and a range report will be of this thing Customized and Cajunized... In a week or so if my work and class load allows.

Congratulations Scarlett Pistol. Very nice.

Thanks! I'm really excited to work on it. CZ Custom comp hammer, thin aluminum grips, extended firing pin, lighter hammer Spring, and some other goodies. Also going to drop the firing pin block so it will be like a pre B. Have the disconnector from CGW for pre B versions as well. I feel like a kid at Christmas!
As a side note I can immediately tell this has tighter tolerances than my 75 compact safety model. Curious to see what barrel lock up and accuracy.
-
My SP01 is the most accurate semi auto pistol I own.
-
I put this on layaway the same day that I got home from my last few weeks of running the road. A pure impulse buy, as it was on consignment at the local dealer that handles all of my transfers. Figure it wasn't too bad of a deal, especially since a .45 ACP model, and if I don't like it, I will simply get rid of it.

I've shot 3 P-320s in different calibers and have been really impressed with the consistency of the trigger. Congrats.

My most recent purchase was a CZ 75 B. My next will likely be a CZ P09. I had a P09 chambered in 9mm about a year ago and I traded it off. I started regretting it shortly after and I wanted it back, but CZ products are fairly hard to find around here.
-
So many guns & so little time (& money): I have a few on my list & it depends on which one I can find for the best deal - SP-01, 75BD, Ruger Vaquero 5144 dual chamber in 45 Colt/45 ACP, and on and on and on it goes.
-
Decided to try something new, to me anyway, ordered a Kahr P9 with factory night sights. I can't get my Ruger LCR 327Federal away from the boss, she's decided it's the perfect purse or IWB carry gun for her. I have a 357 LCR, a Sig M11A1, and a PCR that are the regular carry guns. I want to try something smaller than the CZ or Sig and with a couple more rounds than the LCR. I had a S&W Shield 9mm, OK gun but the trigger was horrible, breaking at 7 1/2 pounds and gritty. The Kahr I tried was smooth and felt very much like my LCR's trigger.

Some form of Polymer handgun for carry purposes. I've been trying to buy my dads FNS-9 from him but he won't budge.
So maybe a poly CZ of sorts. Maybe a Glock or something. Who knows. But I have to obey my 3 month gun rule hahaha

Probably a .22 of some sort (everyone needs at least one .22, right?), I haven't decided which one yet, though.

Definitely a CZ P07. Had to walk away from it at the store today. Hahah

And I ended up buying an FNS-40. Palmetto state armory has them for 376 shipped right now. Really can't be beat. 3 mags and night sights. Apparently has no manual safety but neither does my CZ so no complaints.
I've shot the 9mm variant but if I end up not liking the FN I'll just sell it. Haha.

wait straight up trade or did you pay some cash on top?

I traded my Tristar and $255 OTD for the CZ. I had paid $360 for the Tristar when the P-120 first came out. I had put about 600 rounds through it before I traded. The CZ was used too, but it has had fewer rounds through it.

Next handgun was supposed to be a Kahr P9, the owner of the shop that was going to transfer it offer to buy it for resale at $50 more than I paid. I bought the P9 from CDNN on their "Leap Day" sale for $400. Ended up ordering a Springfield Range Officer Operator in 9mm to go with my Range Officer Champion 9mm. Both will be sent off, at some point, to the Springfield Custom Shop for 38Super conversions.

I like the "odd stuff" so i picked this up today at a local gun show.
AMT/IAI Javelina - Hunting Model ----- 7" longslide 1911 in 10mm. Nice adjustable sights.

Took it out and tried a couple different loads. A medium load with plated bullets and a hunting load with Hornady XTP's. Ran well with both.
I need to lighten the trigger a touch,,,, but I think I like it.

I'd like to see the holster you find for it :)

Picked this up for $425.00 last week and if it had been shot it showed no evidence. Stuffed it full of CGW's parts including the new 10-X bushing. It is quickly becoming my favorite shooter.

My son is big into 3rd Generation S&W. So he suggested a 3913 when I was looking for a single stack 9mm. I won this on GunAuction.com last week for a very reasonable price. I'm loving it. Eats everything I've fed into it and recoil is nil.

Psyop96, I bid on a 3953, but it got away from me! Decided to go DA/SA instead. If I had won the 3953, I might have sold my CZs and kept my HK LEMs. I'm glad I'm keeping the CZs and will continue to go DA/SA.

Selling my 2 HK's has provided some good funds!! I'll say this about HK - they have good resale value.
Here is my second S&W 3rd Gen purchase. Check out the old school adjustable sights. Ugly but really retro cool at the same time. This one's a 5904.

After the very good results with my Range Officer Champion, I decided to go for another Springfield. Picked up a new Springfield Armory Range Officer Operator 9mm. US built pistol with 2 dot rear sight and fiber optic front sight. Polished the trigger, tweaked the sear spring, and replaced the main spring, now has a nice clean 3.6 pound break. Ran 50 rounds of my hand loaded 124gr ammo, 50 rounds of Winchester 115gr white box, 50 rounds of Aguila 124gr and 50 rounds of Blazer Brass 115gr. Reasonably accurate with the Blazer ammo and the Winchester, very good with my hand loads, and excellent with the Aguila stuff. Being an all steel pistol with a heavy 9mm barrel makes this a very soft shooting handgun. I need to try some 147gr ammo and some Freedom Munitions ammo I have in my stash. I'll likely replace the grips with a Raasco or Altamont set at some point.

I'm considering fitting a 38 Super barrel to this pistol to pair it with my Dan Wesson Guardian 38 Super.

Congrats, that is a beautiful pistol! I really really like that color, nickel? I was on the brink of buying a Spingfield Range Officer, and as I kept researching I stumbled across CZ's. The rest is history. I'm pretty sure that a Springfield 1911 will be in my future one day, I keep reading great things about their quality to price range.

Standard parkerized finish, the frame is lighter in color than the slide. Stainless barrel and bushing.

I'm picking up a P09 in .40 this week. I already have the 9mm. Both of these are fully Cajunized. Both will primarily be doing HD duty.
-
I have a Sig P250 full size 9mm in a Ups truck somewhere crossing the country, should be here tomorrow.

My next came in last week. Kahr CM9. Going to be my cc when it gets hot and have to shed clothing.

I had one of those and a PM9. Neat little gun. I sold it to a friend and kept a PM-40 for carry. Only 40 I have, and it is a handfull. The 9 is better, LOL, but I don't shoot the 40 often, so it is OK. CM-9 is great value, good gun. Just give it a few rounds to loosen up some as it will be tight when you first shoot it. Any initial difficulties will clear up after a 100 rounds or so, I'm pretty sure. At least that was my experience with three Kahrs.

Haven't had the chance to take it to the range yet. Actually haven't had time to take my Christmas present(DD ar) to the range yet either. Going to have to pack a lunch and shoot till my arm falls off!

Fantastic!
I've contemplated going down this path as well. I just don't want to invest a ton of money in specialty tools I will most likely use only once.
Keep us posted on how it goes!

That one will be #2. Little brother 4.25in to this one 5in I finished a couple months ago. Did not use special tools other than the rail cutting jig.

Went to pick up my CZ 85C after signing paperwork on Saturday at 11:00 AM. Guy at the shop said it would be ready Wednesday.
Go in at 2:00 PM today and another guy says I came in a day early (3 day hold) :( Gonna have to find some time to go back tomorrow to get it.
-
I'm sure it will be worth the wait.
-
I'm still looking at a cz75 but I am thinking about something striker fired as well.
-
Finally got to pick mine up the other day. FNS40 with 3 mags and night sights for 376 shipped. Went and put a couple hundred rounds through it the other day and it shoots great. I actually think I like shooting 40 more than 9mm. I'm actually able to conceal it pretty well too.

First 10 or so shots at 20 feet. Still working on the whole shooting left thing but it's not too bad. (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160326/43544ecd50aef79f9ba20cb810f49ebc.jpg)

Recently acquired a Springfield Armory XDS in .45. Yuck! I hated the thing. Sold it 2 days later. Only my second ever venture into the world of striker fired guns. There won't be a 3rd. Another CZ or a S&W 640 Pro Series is on my horizon.
-
Well, since I got my CZ 1911 a while back (which I continue to love BTW) I have been Jones-ing for another 45 ACP. Something good for the trail here in the east. Something very dependable, and something a little different. A replacement front sight is being installed on it today, so I should be able to post pics and relieve the suspense shortly... ;)
Cheers!

Also had an XDS in 45. Nothing good to say about it. It went away with no regrets.
Everything I currently own is hammer fired, steel or alloy frame.
-
I actually traded an M&P45 for my P-01, feel like I ripped the guy off. I wanted so hard to like a striker fired gun, and the S&W was the best of that particular litter IMHO. I've not missed a striker, ever, but I know lots of folks who swear by them. But I've always been a revolver guy, so a hammer is a familiar thing. That said, my next one would most likely be a P-09, or a 686 Pro Plus.
-
Para Elite LS Hunter 10mm. Woohoo!
-
Just won a Para LDA Hi-Cap 45 on gonebroker.
-
PCR Pro-Tek I from CZC. Ordered it from Stuart a few days ago.

My next came in last week. Kahr CM9. Going to be my cc when it gets hot and have to shed clothing.
My cm9 has been at my side for 3yrs straight. Excellent gun, wouldn't leave home without it.
-
My next hangun will be a CZ-82 to replace the one that was stolen from my car, along with a smashed window. (Pretty sure I know who did it) I liked it for carry so much I bought a Crossbreed holster for it. (This post will get me one closer to be able to get into the class ads here.)
-
So my plan to post pics has been delayed due to my gunsmith being ill. I am hoping that he recovers quickly.. Mean time I'm going to stop being cute and simply answer the question.
An S&W 625-8 Performance Center 45ACP with a tritium front sight and Hogue rubber grips.
I think the next one after that will be an OD P01...
I will post a pic once they're both in hand.
Cheers

picked this beauty up today

Can't decide between this and the 229! I wish they made a 229 Legion SAO.
-
Probably either a P-07 (9mm) or SP-01 (.40) to fill out my CZ demo kit. I'll probably buy both of them in the next 6 months if I find good deals.
-
I unexpectedly won a Walther P99AS 9mm on Gunbroker.
I've got mixed feelings on this one - I got a really sweet deal on an excellent gun that I probably won't shoot very often.

After you've shot it for a bit, I think you'll like it. I've very much liked the one's I've shot and own and operate it's Turkish Clone, the Canik TP9V1.

Oh, I know I'll like it. I bid on it because I fell in love with the trigger on a used model for sale at my LGS - they were asking $500 used for the .40. My winning bid was $425 including shipping for 9mm new in box (I wanted the 9).
I got a great deal on an outstanding gun... but it's still only one of a half-dozen guns in my safe. It's in the same niche as my PCR, except it won't take my existing stock of magazines. So even if I am totally in love with it... I can still only shoot one gun at a time.
-
my "next up" is a 2-fer:
SP-01 .40 (put down the deposit and did paperwork, I'll be picking it up on Sunday)
P-07 Duty 9mm (from the classifieds here)
-
My next one will be a CZ75 Compact/P01/PCR but I am leaning toward the standard CZ75 Compact.
-
PCR Pro-Tek I from CZC. Ordered it from Stuart a few days ago.
Many pics we shall have?

I just picked up my next one. A standard P-07 in 9mm at Academy. I needed another defensive/class/new shooter gun without a 3 lb trigger and without being too large. This one will be sold to a new shooter later on, my bet. Never even seen one up close until today at Academy. Looks a lot like a P-09 except shorter in two dimensions!

Urban grey P01 and SP01.

What's the turn around time if you call in an order ? I assume you can call in and order?

I just purchased the Walther P99 since they are going for the mid $400s on GunBroker.
I have been wanting one of these for years but another gun would always jump in front.
I will post a picture when I receive it.

CZ 75 BD Police with factory night sights - Wahoo! My PCR should have a big brother within a week!
Whew, I just had to tell someone who would understand...

We'll be waiting for a full report on your Walther. A friend told me about these Walther P99s selling on GunBroker about 2 weeks ago. Since then he and his friends have bought about 12 of them. I'm thinking I may need one too.

SP-01 .40 (put down the deposit and did paperwork, I'll be picking it up on Sunday)
P-07 Duty 9mm (from the classifieds here)
Eastman, I think the P-07 is an excellent choice for your demo kit. Not too small, not too large. Just right. I've had one since Friday and have already been to the range twice to shoot it. Its a perfect size for a home defense/car gun.

I already have the SP-01 (and I am surprised at how much I love a .40). Looks like this (GunBroker listing photo):

Still waiting on the P-07. I looked at them at one of the local shops a couple of weeks ago. Looking forward to burning some ammo through it once it gets here.
-
I want a .22 just to shoot cheaper ammo but can't afford another gun (would rather spend on 9mm).
-
Never thought I would say this, but I do not see another purchase for a long while...maybe ever. I thought I would buy a CZ75c or PO1 but to tell you the truth I like my Tri Star 100 so well, I see no reason to get another gun. Between the C100 and my SD9VE and a few other pistols and one Marlin .22 rifle....I think I am set. After getting use to the C100 and the sights, I do not even see a reason to replace the sights. Trigger never was a problem and is getting smoother and smoother ever time it is fired. Never....never thought the Tri Star would impress me like it has. All I was looking for was a backup 9mm in case I had a problem with the S&W and needed to sent it in for warranty work. What I found was a great pistol that someday I know my son will be glad to have it passed down to him.

I picked up a CZ P07 Duty from GB. She should be in early next week at the latest. My little family is growing again. I have a hankering for an old 85 and am on the hunt. The roster is looking pretty solid.
CZ 97B .45
CZ SP01 Phantom 9mm
CZ P09 .40
CZ P09 9mm
CZ 75B .40
CZ 85 9mm
CZ 75B 9mm
CZ 75 pre-B 9mm
CZ 75 Compact 9mm
CZ 75 PCR 9mm
CZ 75 P01 9mm
CZ 75 P07 Duty 9mm
CZ 2075 RAMI 9mm
All of the above are (or soon will be) fully Cajunized, with the exception of the yet to arrive P07, PCR and 85. I will probably order parts for that today.
I only need a few more. :D

Geez! You own the full collection almost haha.

The grip is fantastic and compared to the PPQ grip, I really do not feel any difference. I am shooting it tomorrow. It came just in time before my son returns to Germany.

One of my local gun shops got a shipment of SP-01 Tactical 9mm pistols in today. After picking up the SP-01 .40 last weekend and having a P-07 on the way, I'm sure all of this SP-01 shipment will be gone long before I have the cash in hand.

I shot the P99 yesterday, very nice. The DA is what I expected and pretty cool on a striker pistol. The SA was great as well. The recoil was hardly there, I was shooting Freedom Munitions 124 gr. The gun is dead on where I aim it. I might have to find a compact now.

Picked up my V-Bob today, to quote my nephew Josh, "so much awesome in such a small package". I'm going to load up a few boxes of 45ACP this evening and go shoot tomorrow after church.

So i see you like to buy in bulk .:o Triple Gratz!
I gotta say my PCR tuned up as well if not better than any of my CZs. Almost zero overt-ravel with the stock serrated trigger. I am not sure if it is a product of the trigger the frame or both.
-
Yet another Project...
This one's gonna be a 3.5in Officer ramped Bull barrel 45 acp. Stainless slide and frame with night sights.

I really love my CZ 97B and I cannot think of any good reason to have another pistol for myself other than it would be nice to have two of exactly the same in case I break one of them or a spring breaks. However this has not been an issue for me yet so I will go on pretending this pistol is all I ever need in the realm of handguns.
I also have a shotgun, a carbine, and a scoped hunting rifle in large caliber. That's all I'll ever need.

I'm very happy to hear you have landed at the perfect combination and number for you. I still haven't quite gotten there. I have 14 CZ handguns and am still shopping. If I ever get to where you are I will certainly post about it.

If you make a list of the features you need and want, and the capability of the firearm, then you should be able to find the perfect one.
When I got my CZ the choice was between it and SIG and Ruger. The CZ was easier to field strip. That was about the only major difference. The CZ was extremely hard to find however. I had to search all up and down the State. Found one in the far north and the other in the far south. The guy down south wanted more and was playing bidding games. The guy up north just wanted to get rid of his because he found out he did not like the 45ACP caliber. I went north and bought it from him.
-
I have several "perfect ones". I hope to acquire more in the future. ;D

I used to think the same thing! ;) CZ's are extremely habit-forming. Buy one and you'll want another...and another... 1911's are the same way for me. I don't think there's such a thing as having too many CZ's and 1911's. I just brought this one home today!

That Lawman is a sweet looking pistol. STI makes bleep good guns. Have you shot it yet?

My next gun(s) are a 75BD Police and two 75 pre-Bs. The Police will be here tomorrow and the other two later this week or early next week. Love tax return time!

Semper Fi back to you also Kol.
It does make sense to have two of exactly everything so that you can cannibalize the one to keep the other one going if you need to.
I loved my G/I issued Springfield 1911A1 while I walked my post with it.
The modern CZ 97B's are more advanced in that the triggers are single and double action.
That way I don't need to futz with either cocking a hammer from Condition #2 or flicking off the safety from Condition #1.
I can just do the long pull on the trigger and get the first round off that way.
-
So many guns I want. Here's my short list, in no particular order. Whichever one I get my mitts on first will be next.
Sig P210 Target
Sig P226 X-Five Supermatch
CZ Shadow 2
STI DVC 3 Gun
Also trying to narrow down a first bolt action rifle... But the thread title says handgun, so I'll leave it at that.
-
I have CZ's; however, my next will be a "Glock 34". The guys I shoot with all use "Glocks"; they've been shooting GSSF matches and I'll go along. Shipped to my FFL today.
-
My 'next' one was suppose to be a CZ 75 SA but it became a CZ 75 Shadow Tac II instead.

Whew, just a little upgrade on that one... Congrats!

Picking up a Dan Wesson 15-2 with 4 and 6 inch barrels this afternoon. Now I need to find 2 1/2 and 8 inch barrel sets.
-
Picked up my DW 15-2 around noon, stopped at a local range and ran 50 rounds of mixed 38 Special and 50 mixed of 357 Mag through the revolver. I'm very happy with the accuracy with the 4 inch barrel and OK with the 6 inch. The 4 inch shot best groups with 125gr SJHP 357 ammo (Federal 357B) and worst with 180gr Keith style 357 hand loads. The 6 inch did best with 158gr LSWC 38 Special hand loads and worst with 125gr SJHP 357 (Federal 357B). The 6 inch did fairly well with 180gr Keith style 357 ammo, but didn't seem to like lighter bullet 357 and 38 Special loads. I need to try some of my 140gr hunting loads out of the 6 inch barrel.
Not too bad for a $425 revolver.

Picked up a S&W .22 Victory pistol at the local show over the weekend.
Sweet little gun and fits right in my .22 rotation with the MKII and the Buckmark.
And yes, I have already tuned up the trigger and installed a red dot on the factory provided pic rail!
Need to go drive some tacks now! O0
-
I just inherited a S&W M&P pre model 10 from my grandfather - the serial number shows that its a 1904 model - the gunsmith I took it to for a once over confirmed the model year
This was my grandfather sidearm when he was a police officer just after returning from WW 2 -
I will post some pictures when I have a few extra minutes
-
Picked this one up today. Like new except for a spot or two.

I like the color of that slide.

My next will likely be an Urban Grey suppressor ready P-07. Looking forward to returning to DA/SA for carry after my sabbatical in striker-fired HK land.
Well, for once I was right :)

Sweet.

Picked up my DW 15-2 around noon, stopped at a local range and ran 50 rounds of mixed 38 Special and 50 mixed of 357 Mag through the revolver. I'm very happy with the accuracy with the 4 inch barrel and OK with the 6 inch. The 4 inch shot best groups with 125gr SJHP 357 ammo (Federal 357B) and worst with 180gr Keith style 357 hand loads. The 6 inch did best with 158gr LSWC 38 Special hand loads and worst with 125gr SJHP 357 (Federal 357B). The 6 inch did fairly well with 180gr Keith style 357 ammo, but didn't seem to like lighter bullet 357 and 38 Special loads. I need to try some of my 140gr hunting loads out of the 6 inch barrel.

That is beautiful revolver.
Iput a deposit on stainless steel fixed barrel Dan Wesson, and I'd love to have a grip like that.

I first fired a 1911 back in 2007; it was the third gun I'd ever tried and the first I actually wanted. Yesterday, I finally picked up my first one.

Funny thing is that after shooting a double-stack 45 for so long, this still feels really small. Even with the thicker rubber grips, it feels about as wide as my SP-01.

That thing is deadly whether shooting or pistol whipping.

Just picked up a P-07, next up will be a CZ 75 Omega Conversion.
-
SP01 is my most recent pistol and second CZ. Odd little coincidence. Their test fire targets are exactly one year apart.

NICE GUN! You have one made at the monson plant which is more desirable than the Palmer made guns.
If you have not already been there be sure to visit http://www.danwessonforum.com
The Dan Wesson model 15's are great guns, I bought my first model 15 for $350, but it was not with me for long.
I couple months after I bought it I found a 715 (stainless) 4" with the VH barrel (full underlug like our 4".)
I bought it, sold the model 15 and still have it today along with an 8" VH barrel with built in scope rail on top.

Looks just like mine but mine is a 10mm Javelina. New mags and a different weight spring and it runs like a champ.
(http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i344/bugboy449/CIMG0482_zps3gohyfci.jpg)
-
Cool, I've never seen a Javelina. Was the recoil spring in your gun kind of warped? The spring in mine looks like it is too long, and bending sideways when in the slide. The magazine included with mine is crap. The feed lips are far enough apart that the rounds (I've only checked with snap caps so far) will pop out if I load more than 2 or 3 :o. I bought a Kimber Tac-Mag (feels solid) and have a Tripp 10-rounder on the way. I might pick up some Mec-Gars, too.
-
Spring seemed to be too heavy. I took the spring from my Citadel .45 and it worked well.
My mag was an Eagle with some kind of ribbon spring set up. You had to download the mag by 3-4 rounds to get it to feed right.
I got a MecGar and another brand and they both work normally.
-
A 7in Javelina has been on my "To Do List" for a while
One thing I never have found out though:
Which Model is better;
An IAI or the AMT ? ???
-
Ribbon spring, like in an old-timey rifle magazine? Is the recoil spring you are using for a longslide or gov't model? The Mec-Gars that I am looking at have a welded baseplate--that means it cannot be removed, right?

1911 floorplates aren't removable (usually) so there is a different process to remove the follower and spring.

Just looked it up on Youtube. It's odd compared to what I'm used to.

Ordered a CZ75B S/A today. Now I have to save my money for the add on goodies.

Recently upgraded CZ 85.

Ordered a S&W Shield earlier this week, going to hopefully be part of a CCW rotation with my P-07 once I get my license.

Shadow 2 for USPSA competition. And piles of reloading components to keep my Dillon occupied.

Ooh! Please post pics and a range report. Really excited to hear about the shadow 2

Good things happen to those who wait. I won the bid on a brand new 2016 CZ P-07 for $410 + $15 shipping on Gunbroker last Friday.(light not included) I'll be looking forward to taking it to the range this weekend!

I won the bid on a new S&W Shield on Gunbroker this week. I took it out and put 50 rounds through it this afternoon. I was very impressed by how accurate it is. I had a S&W SD9VE several years ago. I was lucky to hit the target with my SD9VE, let alone the bulls eye ::) I had to let that S&W go. I believe this Shield is a keeper :)

Right now planning on a new SP01 shadow to become my match gun and relegate my current shadow to "practice gun" status

I have 9mm shield on order right. Plan for it to be the new iwb edc. After a couple rounds though it of course.

I found that the springs in the magazines for my Shield are pretty stiff. It's pretty hard to get the last round in the magazines. I plan on loading both magazines to full capacity and letting the sit in the gun safe for awhile. I'm sure they will loosen up.
-
I'm still in the 90's with S&W. Lots of 6904s are hitting the market along with a few other 3rd Gen types. Initial test drive.... (http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160828/00b9eb6d1541a20c1d1140c3878bdedc.jpg)

Psyop96, you doggone copycat! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] Nice 6904 and nice shooting as well!
-
Just gotta follow the experts [emoji1] Have since swapped out the main spring for a lighter #17 from Wolff. DA is nice and light now. The sights shoot a tad low for me. Only real negative is the mag disconnect and still not a fan of slide mounted safety. Might have to continue along the experts' route to a DAO 6946 someday [emoji1]
-
Smartazz!!! I wonder if I can do that 17# Wolff mainspring on my 6946 and/or 5943 SSV? I honestly have no idea what the stock spring weight is, though the trigger pulls on them don't seem to be all that heavy.
-
The Wolff website indicates that some DAO models (short grip) may already have a #17 factory hammer spring. They show factory standard on the DA/SA as 20 lbs.
-
Awesome, thanks! I'll have to check that out later on [emoji1303][emoji1303][emoji1303]

I have a hankerin' for another 38 Super 1911. Think I'm going to order a Colt Government size 1991 and start modifying as the spirit moves me.
-
I think I'm going to try a 45 Shield.
-
A '95 transitional Pre-B that need a bit of love.
-
2075 RAMI BD or a Dan Wesson variant of some kind
-
Im not sure what my NEXT pistol will be, other than the brand. CZ.
I very much want a CZ75 Shadow. 97B, TS and I would love to find a PreB for the collection. I am seriously looking into the RAMI and compacts.. although, I sort of mitigate my CZ's to fun shooting right now, with only full size pistols in the collection for now.
-
With my birthday coming up soon, I'm seriously considering a Dan Wesson 1911 Bruin Bronze in 10 mm.

The DW in 10 would be mean.
I am thinking about a PCR next time.

My next gun will be a S&W model 640 5 shot .357 magnum J frame used, pre-lock, hammerless. I'm a sucker for S&W's.

Picked up my new Colt 1911 Government in 38 Super last night. Did a basic trigger/action job and installed my preferred arched main spring housing with an Ed Brown Competition mainspring this morning. Test fired with a box box of PPU 130gr round nose ammo. 100% function and acceptable accuracy with what I'd call adequate at most ammo. I plan to run a few boxes of my reloads and some Fiocchi factory stuff through the pistol next. I'll run some CorBon and Buffalo Bore 124gr defense ammo after I shoot at least 200 round nose loads.
I haven't decided what other, if any, mods I'll do, other than a different set of grips.

CZ 2075 B Rami that will be making a trip to CGW for the Defensive Carry treatment after I put a couple hundred rounds thru it.

Being in California, there's not much I really want that I can get.
Once i get my federal license for my EMT, I will most likely get a Glock 17. $398 + 3 mags is a steal.
I find it funny how being a "first responder/EMT" I get discounts on everything law-enforcement related, even guns ;D
I told my friend in Nevada to either get a HK P30L, or a VP9 / VP40, and when he moves back here to Cali, he'd sell me his.
Anyone who have these/know about them, have any recommendations?

I recently spent a year shooting a VP9 exclusively. Overall it was a great experience. The gun was good to go out of the box, although I did put Trijicon HDs on mine.
I switched back to CZ after the year - I just prefer a TDA gun, especially for appendix carry.
ETA: just my thoughts but I would say the P30 needs trigger work out of the box to be satisfactory. That may be my CZs talking though LOL
-
I just got my SP-01 Tactical as a big brother to my P-01. So naturally I need to get a 75 BD to go with my PCR ;D
-
Ok may sound kinda crazy, but I'm looking at getting a CVA Scout single shot pistol, stainless, in 357 mag. This would be a "handgun hunting" experiment for deer and hogs. Only issue I have is there's not much reviews out there so if any has some experience with these please chime in. Kinda on the fence so to speak.

Right there with you.......add a PCR and I have the same grouping, all with CGW Pro-Pkg setups.....took the very competent stock guns and turned them into exceptional firearms!

Next handgun? CVA Optima V2. Flash, bang, and smoke!

I WANT to say my next one is a Beretta 92G Elite II, only because I've wanted one for YEARS. Realistically though, it'll be a Glock 43, as my 19 is a little large to lug around sometimes. Then an SP-01 Tactical. ;D
-
I am very happy with my P-07s but I've been thinking about what I might like to add at some point. I was initially thinking a P-09 or maybe an SP-01... then I saw the Shadow 2.
Yep, that's it: Shadow 2.
The best part is I'll have time to save for it... LOL

I'm lusting after the Wilson Combat Beretta 92G SD Brigadier, but since I own a 92FS Brigadier I'll just install the Wilson Combat parts myself. I'll then have Wilson do the "G" conversion and barrel bob to my slide. I'm not a fan of railed frames as a rule, but the Wilson just looks amazing.

I'd be happy with a Wilson Beretta 92G Compact as a hold over or compliment to the EliteII, but there's just aomething about the two-tone finish (among other things) with the EliteII, so it'll remain on my list. They just don't pop up often at reasonable prices.

I have to wait for it to arrive. Should be early next week. I don't want to post the GB photos, They aren't very good. I get my Czech Made B back from cerakote later today. It is going to the Wizard for Cajunization. Should be able to post pics of the finished project later this week.

You have fine taste. I have looked at both of those recently myself. What caliber are you thinking of for the 550 FS?

Smith and Wesson 442. My P01 is just too chunky to conceal in hot weather. The little snubby can be dropped in a jeans pocket.

I was finally able to pick up a couple of my new kids from the LGS, so figured I better share a picture of them. One is sporting the stock 12-round mag with finger extension, whereas the other has a 15-rd mag with stock grip extension.

Nice looking twins! Did you pick out names for them yet? [emoji1]

Hahahahahahahaha! No, no names yet. Thanks, they actually both have a lot of wear, one being worse than the other but they both seem fine mechanically. Just need a good bath and a visit to the range ASAP.

Excellent topic! CZ people don't walk around with their nose in the air!
Christmas is definitely coming up fast. Last Christmas, I bought enough guns to take my three sons shooting. They're all adults mind you, 30 to 41 yrs. old! I bought a mish-mash of styles and characters. My youngest loves his 1911 in 22 cal. and he's a bleep fine shot. The two older boy-chicks lives are very busy and they've enjoyed free access to my gun case.
So, I decided to buy two milsurps and customize them to the boys character. Yesterday we all got to play with the recent milsurp, a Beretta 92S. I did not expect such a nice gun in a milsurp deal. The 92 is beautiful! I'm sort of pissed they all shipped without any wrapping at all! Just about 500 guns per case, stacked loosely.
I swear if they'd wrapped them in butcher paper even, the lot could have been considered good to excellent! Shot about 150 rounds without a squirt of oil! Actually the piece looked like it had enough oil internally.
Sights are fixed but ineffective. Very low profile and hard for my old eyes to see well! The report seems a bit snappy compared to my CZ75 but by no means harder... just a bit more precise. There was minor holster wear along sharp edges but the scratches were very fine. Even the grip was in better shape than expected.
My oldest son loves everything Japanese and does in fact have a beautiful Japanese-American wife, and 1.5 handsome boys.
He'll get the Beretta painted flat black with a silkscreened Samurai Warrior on faux Ivory grips! I think I would like to try the gun frame, and slide in a Red Laquer with gold plate accents... but that would look good in a case and get you many snickers at the range.
After this one, I'm looking for a STAR, or a Hi-Power clone. I want to buy a milsurp CZ but if everyone has a different gun, it will foster sharing and increase everyone's firearm education.
What would you guys recommend for a family hobby? We currently have my CZ75b, the Beretta 92s, a Kahr 40 none of us like, ATI 1911 in .22 cal. my youngest is not inclined to let go of, a Heritage 6 gun in .22 cal. and a black powder 1858 .44 cal. Remington. I would think a STAR super B 9mm, or a hi-power clone.
Any suggestions?
-
For me, it's a PO1! It's just the sexiest gun I've ever seen! It has dignity or mute Gravitas, what ever you want to call it. It has reserved lines, effortless grace and with a high polished walnut grip, can stimulate your salivation glands! It would be the perfect gun for a modern James Bond!

So, I decided to buy two milsurps and customize them to the boys character. Yesterday we all got to play with the recent milsurp, a Beretta 92S. I did not expect such a nice gun in a milsurp deal. The 92 is beautiful! I'm sort of pissed they all shipped without any wrapping at all! Just about 500 guns per case, stacked loosely.
I swear if they'd wrapped them in butcher paper even, the lot could have been considered good to excellent! Shot about 150 rounds without a squirt of oil! Actually the piece looked like it had enough oil internally.
Sights are fixed but ineffective. Very low profile and hard for my old eyes to see well! The report seems a bit snappy compared to my CZ75 but by no means harder... just a bit more precise. There was minor holster wear along sharp edges but the scratches were very fine. Even the grip was in better shape than expected.
My oldest son loves everything Japanese and does in fact have a beautiful Japanese-American wife, and 1.5 handsome boys.
He'll get the Beretta painted flat black with a silkscreened Samurai Warrior on faux Ivory grips! I think I would like to try the gun frame, and slide in a Red Laquer with gold plate accents... but that would look good in a case and get you many snickers at the range.
After this one, I'm looking for a STAR, or a Hi-Power clone. I want to buy a milsurp CZ but if everyone has a different gun, it will foster sharing and increase everyone's firearm education.
What would you guys recommend for a family hobby? We currently have my CZ75b, the Beretta 92s, a Kahr 40 none of us like, ATI 1911 in .22 cal. my youngest is not inclined to let go of, a Heritage 6 gun in .22 cal. and a black powder 1858 .44 cal. Remington. I would think a STAR super B 9mm, or a hi-power clone.
Any suggestions?
I would dump the Kahr and buy a surplus FN H.P., CDI Sales has a bunch of worthy candidates cheap.The price is close enough to consider the real thing instead of a copy. Easy for me to say though, every time I look at buying an H.P., I think it over and buy another surplus 75. Each one is a little different. Regarding the Kahr, no point in keeping a gun nobody likes. Surplus guns are addictive!

Sell my glock 29 and sr1911 and pay a little extra to get a Dan Wesson in 10mm or keep both and get an H&K VP9 Compact of it will ever come out.
-
I will be making a purchase; however, I cannot make up my mind on two very different pistols to use strictly for range and maybe IDPA: Canik TP9SA or a Grand Power K100 MK12. I am in the paralysis by analysis phase and have been for the past 6 months now.
I know ... buy both, but that's a NO-GO at the moment.

We have a Pre-14 in the shop that I am going to bring home in a few days. It's ROUGH. Frame and cylinder don't match, has been converted to DAO, and comes with an old clamshell holster. It's a perfect project gun.
-
Thanks! Good points!
-
Sexiest gun I ever saw!!!
Yes! I will have one soon! Even thought about conceding my CZ75b to one of the boys and buying the PO1 for me! Bud's guns has them in stock!
When it comes to CZ's... not even blood has safety in it! Now, how do I make this Christmas all about others while making sure the prize makes it's way to me!
The PO1 looks like it should be in the hands of the president... not his bodyguards! Deadly and classy both!
-
Thinking about the all steel CZ75 compact on the heals of my PCR. Otherwise a Ruger SPO1 4.2 barrel .357 magnum as an OWB Yellowstone/Mountain gun sounds handy!
-
Well if they would ever show up in the States, I'd pick up a CZ TS Orange in 40S&W. I've seen a couple of 9mm models show up but no 40's yet... Come on CZ, send us some TS oranges!
My local club is restarting their USPSA club and I'm going to use the TS orange as my Limited major rig. Won't have to do much to it aside from up the mag capacity.
Cheers,
Toby
-

+1.
I haven't ever really felt that handicapped with my 14 round 75B .40...until this past match. I don't think I am "better" than what my current gun can do, but the capacity advantages are real.
-
I've got a sub-compact that leads in every way but fit. My hands are just too big, my fingers, too fat. Kahr CM40 is very powerful! If you have a small to medium size hand, it's very accurate! Also has two extra mag, (6 rd. vs 5 rd), Crimson Trace Laser system. E-mail if you're interested!

M&P Shield 9mm in a SmartCarry. Shot initially low left...but with a small amount of dry fire time,,, shots are now as good as can be expected with a small pistol.
My P01 is not a good summer carry for me as I wear mostly gym shorts. SmartCarry and the Shield seem ideal...after two weeks.
YMMV

Looks like I'll be getting a S&W 686+ 3 inch on Friday. A coworker and wife are having their first children (twins due in early December) and wants to sell his hand guns. I bought the 686 and told him I'd take his Ruger SR1911 if he didn't get a buyer by the weekend.
-
Still contemplating the next project. What to do?
-
After the CZ 85 Pre B pistol was finished I told myself I was done.
Now I've got an urge (already ordered some parts) to buy and modify a CZ 75 Compact. I think it's going to be neat and useful handgun when I get it done.
Will be trying to pick up that Compact this week.

S&W 686 Plus (4" or 6" barrel) if, and it's a big if, I can lay my hands on a used Marlin 1894C lever action rifle at a reasonable price. Meanwhile, I'm also waiting to see if Marlin will bring the 1894C back into production in 2017.

S&W 686 Plus (4" or 6" barrel)
You're going to like it! I've got a 8 3/8" 686 that is an absolute tack driver! If it ever came down to where I could only have one handgun...it would probably be this one. Yes, even over my CZ's.
Mine has harvested 4 whitetail does and I currently use it for informal target shooting.
-
I have two that I want to get. A CZ Compact with a rail and ambi decocker. Unfortunately, this particular combination does not exist. Who knows, maybe someday. I would like to get a CZ SP-01 Shadow Accu Bushing model 91730 in the near future.

It's not really for me. I'm buying for my adult son's gift. I offered to buy any surplus gun he wanted and I'd paint and re-condition it. He just seems to love the look of plastic stuff. What can I say... Beauty is as good a motive as any other. I spent months reviewing my first pistol, spent a small fortune and ended up with a gun I can't hit the broadside of a barn with!!!
Luckily his taste sent him towards a good company. He want's a Ruger American. Not a bad choice! Cheaper than re-conditioning a worthy surplus gun, so I win out too!

Hopefully a Mitchell Arms P-08 American Luger in stainless.

I mentioned this was on order, but it came on Friday, so here's a few pics. CGW upgrades were just ordered so it'll be upgraded and shared in the CGW pic thread in a week or so. Really excited about this SP-01 Compact! (officially just stamped as a 75 Compact)

Those are very good guns, nice, weighty, almost no recoil, especially in 9mm. Just keep in mind, the barrel can be a tad fiddly with reassembly, but its pretty easy to pick up after doing it a couple times, and switching the mag release can be a real pain (If you're a lefty, like me.). I used to own one, but my dad grew rather fond of it after shooting it, and I decided to give it to him as a birthday present.
-
Next Gun: it was going to be a Colt Competition 1911, then I started looking at the CZ 97B and after some research decided I will go with the CZ. just this last weekend was at a local firearm auction and couldn't pass up the price on a new CZ 75B .40. got it for $370.00. wasn't on my list but you just cant pass up a deal like that.

I COMPLETELY concur! I have one centerfire gun that will out shoot mine, and it cheats with a 8 3/8" barrel. Looooooooong sight radius!

Very Nice T-120, Poetical1! 8) :)
Just acquired what I believe is a Rossi 351 .38 Special, made by Braztech/Rossi, used, from a friend who is going into an Assisted Living Complex, for Medical Reasons. As my usual penchant is for a high capacity 9mm or .45 ACP Semi-Auto, this is a bit out of the way for me, but not undesirable. I do own other Revolvers, but I only occasionally shoot them.
This Revolver is largely in great condition with the exception of the Factory Rubber Grips, which have somehow become discolored. I will be replacing them, most likely with the same Factory Grips, as I like their shape in my hand. Currently, I have them on Backorder from Rossi/Braztech.

Sorry for the Stock Photo, but I probably won't be taking any pics of mine till those Grips have been replaced.

Just bought my "next one." It's a Ruger SR22. I know a .22 pistol is something everyone should have in their safe, but I've never gotten around to it. Read a ton of reviews lately, and just about every one was 4+ stars. Broke down and got one. Will go to the range soon. Looks and feels fantastic.

I didn't purchase a new handgun but installed a decocker only on my Beretta Compact. This saved me from having to buy a G compact in the future (if they come out with one). So it is like having a new pistol.

My next ended up being a Sig P320RX that I was lucky enough to find at the last gun show. It is my only striker-fired gun at the moment and it is pretty sweet... but it really just made me want a P-09 now LOL

Well, I got my new "next gun". I fell back to my roots. Did some trading and wound up with something I am scared of! In practical terms, it is everything I hate! In real terms, it is everything I love! It is blued. It is SA. It only holds 7 rds. It is a safe queen, almost! It is the ultimate pistol for my generation.
Some may have guessed by now, but yes, it is a 1975 vintage Colt Gold Cup National Match 45ACP in immaculate condition that begs to be run like the race horse it is. I doubt it has seen 100 rds through it.
It is lightly sprung, so I gotta find some ammo for it or get a standard recoil spring, but I do intend to run it like it was built for, at least occasionally. O0

Wow, what a catch! Congrats on finding such a great old pistol. If I had one, I would probably shoot it AND clean it.

WoW, that is awesome. I never knew they made all that for them.
Mine did not come with a factory mag, so I ordered one stainless pony.
There are a number of things I dislike about mine as in lack of ambi safety, tang hammer and grip safety, plain black front sight that is pinned I guess. It adds up fast so I think I will just leave it in its virgin state. I already have a range queen in a polished stainless CZ75 fully tricked out.

I HATE when I see something I MUST HAVE!. A Local shop had a Ruger GP100 1761, 3 inch 5 shot 44 Special, that was being delivered to a buyer. Now I need one.

You wouldn't actually put a Glock in a safe with that beauty would you? Think of the inferiority complex the Glocks will get! ;)

Not a fan of Glocks, but I'm considering buying a Remington RP9 just to try something different.

Another beauty of a revolver. Remington auto pistol? After their debacle with the R51? There are plenty of manufacturers with better track records on "new" designs. If you want something different perhaps a Walther P99?

Ordered a 44 Special GP100 this afternoon and my favorite
crack dealer gun shop has 4 Beretta M9A3s in bound, 1 of them is now mine. Wilson Combat emailed and said my Brig-Tac will not be delivered until May. Next up the CZ P-10C and I think I'll hold off on the Remington RP9 for a while. Looking forward to comparing/shooting my SP-01 Tactical and the M9A3. If it turns out like CZ-75 BD Police vs Beretta 92 Brigadier, everyone wins.
-
Three items need to be added to the CZ demo kit for 2017. Order will depend on when I can obtain each.
P-10c 9mm
Scorpion (pistol) 9mm
P-09 .40 (to replace the SP-01 Tactical .40 in the demo kit, since it is now a discontinued model)
That also means I can start thinking about what to tweak on the SP-01, since it doesn't have to remain stock anymore. O0
-
The CZ P10c. Don't care if I get the black or FDE version. Whichever I can get hold of first.
rich63
-
CZ P-10 C or P-01 Omega Convertible... whichever I can find first, but I do plan on picking both of them up at some point!
-
I hope to acquire an SP01 Tactical in 40SW next year. I plan on fully smoothing and customizing it to match my 9mm version. We'll see how the finances work out when the time comes.
Cheers,
Toby
I never did get the SP01 Tactical in 40S&W. I have contemplated it too much and now they are discontinued!?
But now I've got the TS Orange in 40S&W on its way! Super stoked!
Cheers,
Toby

- FNX45T (add RMR, X300U-B, Osprey 45)- Home defense
- Striker fired range toy
Will pick out of the upcoming CZ P10 Supressor Ready Full Size, Sig Sauer P320 X5 5" (320X5-9-BAS) or the HK VP9L 5" 9mm
- Finally after trying out some IDPA with my modded Sig Sauer P226, probably look to add a CZ Czechmate to try out Limited and Open IPSC
Then, just rifles afterward (5.56/308)
-
- CZ P10 Suppressor Ready Full Size (add RMR, compensator, magwell)- Range toy
- FNX45T (add RMR, X300U-B, Osprey 45)- Home defense
Should make for a nice 2017.
I tried out an FNX45, there is a lot to be said that is positive about that weapon. The fact that on the T it comes with a threaded barrel and the slide is cut and threaded for optional electronic red-dot sight (and comes with two plates) and it comes with raised night sights for suppressor use is definitely a real plus. It handles well, operation was smooth. Nice pistol.

I'm torn between the PCR and the all steel compact with rail and beavertail. I need help....

I've owned both the HK45ct and USP45ct in the past before I went all 9mm. I miss 45ACP and for my one firearm, I think the FNX45T is the right choice for the all the same reasons.

Picked up my Ruger GP100 44 Special and Beretta M9A3 last night. Finished the work I wanted to do and now off to the range.

I may go back to the Ver-Tec grips on the Beretta, I plan to shoot 100 rounds with each grip and see how they work out.

Next for me is a new P09. This will complete my collection.

That's the only one I don't presently have. So....I must have one!

What caliber?
I only ask because my LGS has the 40 for $379 on GB. I believe they have 4 left, but a great group of guys.
-
I don't have the 9mm version but I just ordered it from Grabagun so it should be here next week. After sights, trigger and a little grip work I should be done. $379.00 is a great price for the .40 which seems to be going away rather quickly. I noticed that Lone Wolf and a few others are no longer making the long slides in .40 for the Glocks, if anyone wants something in .40 this would be the time to get it.
-
My next pistol will most likely be a Ruger commander size 1911. I had a Para - Ordnance LTC a sold it a few years ago and have had sellesr's remorse ever since.

I think it's time for another striker fire (I don't have one). I'm waiting for the CZ P10c... It'll be my only gun this year.
-
Today: She's only 17 ;)

Next: PO1 Omega. Yeah, been waiting...
-
P10C is really calling me.
-
P-10c and Caracal enhanced F
-
I'm interested in the new Shadow bull barrel or the Hudson H9.
-
Next for me is a P-08 (used of course).
-
I said no more guns but .... I think a full size cz75 may just find its way in here!! ;D
-
Waiting on delivery of a Beretta .32 Cheetah, can't wait.
-
Just ordered a Shield 45 to replace my G43. Wasn't happy at all with the finish on the GA made guns from Glock. Original one and warranty replacement both had corrosion issues.
-
Not exactly sure if this will be the next gun, but a P10C in .40 will most likely follow me home this summer. I would not mind adding a CZ 97B back to the collection too, but for now, I'm happy launching 230g chunks of lead through a CZ 1911A1.
-
CZ P-10 C
(If I can find one)
-
Like a lot of others, I am waiting on the P-10C, but in the meantime I am seriously considering the purchase of a Bersa Thunder 380 Plus, Beretta 84 FS, and/or a SCCY CPX-2.
-
Cyanide, did you know you can get a 7.65 barrel and shoot .32s. You will also need the mags. That is if you get the 84, and vise versa.

Just picked up my G19 yesterday and I should be getting my G43 any day now... 8)

Congrats FJ! Looks very nice [emoji1303]. Whenever I get around to picking up an 84 FS just going to leave it stock.
-
Decided to go ahead and get one, especially since I found a pretty good deal from a vendor on GB which included a second Bersa OEM mag. Now the wait to get back home from work in a couple of weeks to pick it up and hit the range. [emoji16]

Den, that's a fine SP you have now!
My next in line was a Seecamp LWS32, and my new next in line is possibly the P10 Compact in 40S&W with TFX sights so I can dump my G27. Might be a while before that will be realized tho. A guy's gotta have dreams!

Glock 17 Gen 4 with night sights.

Thanks all....
I bought the SP101 years back
The Original Owner had a Pistolsmith set it up as a .22wmr
It took me a while, but I finally found an OEM .22lr Cylinder for it
Now it's as it is....a "Super" SP101, and it may be a one of a kind 8)
It's a bit tougher to switch from lr to wmr than with the Super Single Six....but it doable ;)

Cyanide, you will love the Bersa. Flat shooting, feels great in the hand, and tons of features. I bought one way back for $199 used, and the for the money the trigger and gun in general are awesome. Wish it was 9mm though, .380 is overpriced these days. I have no problem with the cartridge otherwise.
-
Is that Bersa kinda sorta a Baretta 85 copy or what? They look similar, less the open slide.

Looking forward to it! I had a Bersa Thunder 9 UC in the past that shot great and opened me up to these underrated gems. Like I mentioned in my previous post, I've always wanted to pick up one of the Thunder 380 Plus models, just waiting it to arrive at my LGS now.
In addition to my new Bersa, I just put this on layaway earlier this afternoon; a (used) Sig P232 with night sights. Unfortunately, I won't be able to get it out of layaway for another several weeks, so let the waiting game begin on it. I'm gonna go ahead and pick up some G10 Piranha grip panels asap to replace the bulky rubber grips currently on it, which I'm not a fan of from messing with them in several stores.

The P99AS is an amazing pistol. Shoots like a dream and the paddle release means you dont have to shift your grip to reload!

After my two CZ purchases (PCR and P01 both with Pro Kits) I purchased a Beretta Compact (MADE IN ITALY). Then the VOODOO started. My long time go to FFL shop owner DIED the night before my purchase! I then went to my secondary FFL dealer and his mother DIED the night before I was to pick it up! With all this happening the CZ world is yelling at me to stop buying non CZ firearms! But, I have yet to see the Beretta and I will give it an inspection just like the CG Inspections my fellow Navy Corpsman and I received from the Marine inspectors while stationed at Camp Pendleton during the late 1960s. I just wonder if it"s going to be a Ferrari (I wanted a Corvette) or a FIAT (which stands for FIX IT AGAIN TONY) Boy, the all steel CZ compact looks good to me now.....

I posted in the C&R thread about a CZ 27 I found in my LGS while picking up another pistol.
The other pistol... I own a CZ 75 and a Beretta 92FS, both from the early 90's. I own other pistols too, but the set wouldn't be complete without a Sig P226 from the same era. The problem is, I have a self-imposed budget; this keeps my purchases at a reasonable price and keeps my bank account happy.
I hadn't been able to land the Sig at the price I set... until now. All serials match (frame, barrel and slide), it functions and shoots great, and the appearance was ok... JUST BARELY... for the price. And yes, I own a lot of other guns that look better, at that price... but none were Sigs.
I've posted in a couple other forums, but I can't help it ;D, I like to share!

I hadn't been able to land the Sig at the price I set... until now. All serials match (frame, barrel and slide), it functions and shoots great, and the appearance was ok... JUST BARELY... for the price. And yes, I own a lot of other guns that look better, at that price... but none were Sigs.
I've posted in a couple other forums, but I can't help it ;D, I like to share!
That is one cool Sig scooby, i am not a Sig guy buy that one pushes me in the right direction.

Yeah, I'd have preferred it to not have the rust stains on the serrations, and the ding on the trigger guard (that's a big gouge). But outside of that, I'm okay with it... the etching and pitting give it a ton of honest character, and don't effect the functional aspect at all. Just a lot of external wear. It's going to stay oiled up and preserved from here on out.
I don't like the fake "distressed" look some people make, but I'm not averse to honest wear at all, especially if the price is right!

I was seriously considering purchasing an 84 FS at one of my LGS's, but after getting my Bersa, nah! Just a slight better feel in my hand and a little smidgen of a better trigger pull LOL.
We want a range report asap!

I went to a gun show this weekend and they were selling Bersas for $300.00 out the door. I must say I was tempted, but I am on the Cheetah roll right now.

Just scored another Bersa for a decent price so on layaway it goes! This one's the smallest of 'em, the Thunder 380 CC Model, at 6" L x 4.6" H x 1" W, 16 oz, 3.2" barrel, and 8+1.

The Hungarian cousin......F?G APK .380 auto steel frame. Picked it up and went right to the range; field strip-clean-lube on the range. Was lacking two of the most commonly lost parts (ejector spring to keep it in place and a sear retaining pin) but still functioned for a few rounds. Shot low but that might be old eyes not quite aligning the tiny and unmarked sights [emoji3](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170303/a971d49b34fc38d92c45e364af600fc9.jpg)

Well, it took me by surprise, but I now have an SP-01 Shadow on the way. This wasn't even on my radar and I'm going to have to trade something for it, but looks like it's worth it.

I have two incoming this week. I traded a Bersa Thunder 9 Pro (the big 17 round service model) to my local gun shop for a new Ruger American Pistol Compact. Then this weekend I came across a RM380 online for $284.95, after the $35 rebate from Remington and paying the FFL fee I'll only be $275 out of pocket so I'll give it a try.

I was much more tempted by the nickel finish Mauser HSc .380 ($375, IIRC)

Going to do what I swore I would never do, which is get yet another Glock. This will be number eight that I will have had and I swear, I'm going to keep this one LMFAO. What can I say, besides CZ and Beretta, they are actually one of my favorite pistols regardless of my love/hate relationship with them!
Going to get another Gen 4 19, have a double undercut done, the extended slide release, add Tru Glo TFX Pro sights, and swap out the serrated trigger for a smooth face one from the full-size models along with changing out the guts to a 3 1/2 pound connector with the NY1 8 pound trigger spring. Just haven't decided if I'm going to keep the finger grooves, partially reduce them, or remove them altogether?

What are you talking about.... Look at how different mine are... SAO, different grips, different sights, different beavertails, one even has a different hammer... it's crazy!

If I buy another match grade handgun, it will be a 9mm Tactical Sport Orange. It can't possibly be more accurate than a 75 with a CGW 10x bushing, but it is heavier and larger, and closer to the 97B in size, near as I can tell. That will help in bullseye, if I get tired of shooting the 97B"E". Wait a minute. That may not happen. Nevermind. :) :)

Sir
You will love the TS Orange. I have not handled it yet, but have handled Czechmate (near identical grip/frame) owned and shot the standard TS for a quite a bit. If you get a hang of the grip, you will love the TS Orange. It will need 10X busing, surely.
I am working on my next pistol. I was hell bent on a Sig X6 Supermatch, but, it cannot be had in my neck of the woods.
Now, thinking of contacting Stuart for something special from CZ Custom, that rivals and exceeds the Sig X6. Lets see.

I absolutely love my TS Orange. I find the more I shoot it, the more I like it. It's pretty much put my Shadow Target II on bench warmer status.
Next for me might be a Compact P320. It's either that or a P10C (if they can get them out to distributors)

Next gun: Colt Police Positive Special, .38 special, original nickle finish with original real mother of pearl grips, in very good condition with a little holster wear to the finish at the muzzle and flecking to the nickle here and there, but a tight, pristine bore, action is crisp and tight, and no damage to the pearl.
Made in 1918. 4 inch barrel.
It's sweet, and at a price I couldn't resist. It comes home in about a week.

My newest (layaway) score, a pre-owned, Gen 4 Glock 23 with six OEM Glock magazines (2-13 rd, 2-15 rd, 2-22 rd, one with an extension), Hogue rubber grip sleeve, Trijicon XS Big Dot night sights, and a Ghost 3.5 Trigger and extended bullet slide release installed. Got it all for a fairly decent price, along with an extra complete Gen 4 19/23 lower that's going to be dedicated to mild grip and trigger work (double undercut, 3.5# connector, 8# NY1 spring, smooth face full size model Glock trigger).
Probably still gonna swap out the XS Big Dots for TruGlo TFX Pro fiber optic/tritium sights. Now whether or not I want to snag a spare 9mm barrel and Glock 19 mags for it??? [emoji848]

I picked up a very lightly used P-07 9mm today while waiting for a P-10c of my own. The P-07 Duty I had been using for demos will now get customized for range use. I'll probably drop to a 13# hammer spring (+ extended firing pin).
I put 100 rounds of Perfecta 9mm through the P-07 to function test, then 10 rounds of MEN 124gr 9mm NATO to see what it could do (it will be even better next time now that the medium backstrap has been installed).

Then, I see a used TS in .40 S&W on the internet and buy that, too. Never, ever, would I have posted that I was going to buy a TS, in either caliber.
I guess there's not much use in me writing down what I may get next because I walk in a store, or see something on the internet, and suddenly want it.
I'm not even going to mention what I'm looking at right now. I'm going to go by the gun store tomorrow and it it's still there, and in the right caliber, I may end up with a non-CZ (for the first time in about 5 years (maybe 4 years, I lose track of time.)

I guess there's not much use in me writing down what I may get next because I walk in a store, or see something on the internet, and suddenly want it.
I'm not even going to mention what I'm looking at right now. I'm going to go by the gun store tomorrow and it it's still there, and in the right caliber, I may end up with a non-CZ (for the first time in about 5 years (maybe 4 years, I lose track of time.)
Well, saved some money. The other day I noticed a couple of used SIG 229's at a local gun store. $399 each. The more I thought about it, the more online reading I did, and I went back to look at them. I was seriously thinking about buying both. Another father/son restore/refinish and slick up project ending in one pistol each for my youngest son and I.
Well, they were 9MM models. One had a magazine marked .357/.40 in it. The guy behind the counter just looked at me funny when I pointed that out. One had some damaged to the frame that looked like some had dropped it (at high speed) on the asphalt and gouged junks out of it (probably could have reduced the area around it with some sanding = lots of sanding = and then after refinishing it would have been hard to tell unless you were a dedicated SIG fan).
Then the killer, for me, all those buttons/levers and none was a safety. A doggone decocker pistol. I've got one of those (Browning BDM) and don't feel the need for more. I thanked the guy for letting me look them over and walked away.
Now I've still got money for another CZ, or two, if I run across the right one at the gun show tomorrow. No, I don't need another CZ either, but at least I can carry them cocked and locked (the models I'd buy).
-
Turns out it is a SIG 320rx.
-
I want a 97B full custom.
-
Probably a CZ compact
-
Likely some 1911 in 9mm.
-
Thinking very seriously about a Cajun Gun Works SP01 decocker. Also looking at a Wilson Combat Beretta 92 Brig-Tac. Money permitting maybe both.
-
And the money I didn't spend on the two used SIGs (most of it) got spent on a new SP01 Compact.
And the rest (plus that much more) on upgrade parts for the one SP01 Compact and a few pieces for another project, at some time or other.

The wife has claimed "her new pistol" 10 minutes after I got it home! Went to a local shop to buy primers and saw this beauty in the display cabinet, traded one of my M9A3s and $200. The M9A3 didn't even get into the display before it was sold.

Very nice Brigadier. Still cant find a P10, so picked up a used Steyr M9 made in 04. Close to 0 aftermarket, and as far as I can tell, Steyr itself has nothing on their site as far as spare parts. I love this gun though.

There's a CZ P-10 C sitting in a case up the road from me for $480.00 + tax. My problem is I'm really wanting a Blued 10mm 6" 1911 type gun (was wanting a Delta Elite) but they are twice as much as the normal price I pay for pistols.
Maybe later today I'll run up there and see if it's still there?!?
Just wanted to keep this thread alive... I've enjoyed it from the beginning.

Almost for sure, it will be a Smith and Wesson 28.

My nexts proved to be a CZ P-10C and a Vickers Glock 17.
The P-10C shoots surprisingly soft and I think it ticks all the boxes for a great out of the box gun, aside from the sights. Those are functional and might be fine for others but they just don't work so well for me. I'll be throwing an HTAC rear and green fiber front on there soon.
The G17 was a real surprise, shooting better for me than any Glock I've had my hands on to date. This was the first I've had with the RTF2 grip texture and it is awesome. I got it just a to have a Glock and to use in stock form in the occasional GSSF match. Much happier with it than I expected to be :)
These two will be it for me and striker-fired guns. Now back to hammer-fired goodness with a couple more CZ P-07s ;-)

After handling a friend's Vickers Glock, I came away very impressed with the feel of it. The texture of the grip makes it "stick" to my hands. I would very much like that texture on my P-07 and P-09.

I was super impressed... any other Glocks I get (if that day ever arrives) will definitely be RTF2.
The Wilson Combat sights on the Vickers are good too and I had to install the extended mag release and the extended slide release to have something functional lol
I was less enthused by the mag plates and the plug/tool thingie.
All in all a happy purchase. I'll have to keep an eye on the ejection and such to see if any other aftermarket stuff will be needed (HRED, etc) but the trigger will stay stock for now and hopefully I can just call it good :)

My next two (and last two for a good long while) are CZ's - a P-07 and a suppressor-ready P-07 ... Both will be Cajunized and the SR P-07 will get an RMR plus an X300 + DG switch as well as a Primary Machine comp for T&E purposes as soon as they are released; the other one just has new sights on the way.
This completes my carry quartet: carry, training, spare and a lower profile alternate. Now back to training :)

Already have a S@W 624 but want one of those 5 shot S@W model 69, 44 magnum's even though I only plan on shooting 44 special out of it. Really like the idea of a Smith and Wesson five shooter but not as excited about the 800 plus price tag. Maybe some one will have a sale. Would be much happier paying about 700 bucks.

Until earlier this year, I thought that I had everything I could ever want (outside of some fantasy items like a SIG P210, etc).
Didn't have any CZ items besides the EVO, but then that batch of 99021's came along, and for some reason I had to have one. Well the, those steel CZ's really shoot nicely, so the SP-01 followed. As did the DW revolvers.
Where does this end???
Now I'm trying hard to resist a Sig in .357 Sig, without which I am sure life might be incomplete.....

Partly :P Let him shoot my 85C and S2, and all he wanted was a metal CZ. I tried to sell him my 85C, but I told him I would prefer the SP01. It didn't help that he shot a ton of guns in Vegas too haha. Then a $550 SP01 popped up at Ky Gun Co, and that sealed the deal!
-
Just my opinion OP, but why make your prized pistol a "safe queen"? You love shooting it, so you should shoot it! I mean, you put the time and money into getting it the way you want, so why not enjoy it?
As for my next handgun, I really want a high-end 1911 and I'm leaning towards a custom build Ed Brown. But they are rather pricey so it's not going to be for a while (my "wants" don't match my take-home pay lol)

Recently ordered a CZ surplus from Buds in ?fair? condition. Looking forward to picking it up and refinishing it. It arrived yesterday and FFL told me it?s a 95? pre-B.

Picked up a Springfield 1911 Range Officer Operator from a good friend of mine today. Love the gun but my CZ75B SA feels a little better in the hands and is a little smoother. I'm sure the action on the 1911 will smooth out after I put some rounds down range. The CZ feels a little bit heavier but not by much.

Mine will be a Grand Power QS1 when it becomes available this year. I have been wanting a striker fired sub compact with rotating barrel for a long time. I'm also becoming less of a fan of CZ's
customer service lately. I am also not a fan of CZ moving to the USA which I expect will be met here with a lot of disapproval, I just feel that quality will suffer by that move like it has with Sig
Sauer. Accessories for Grand Powers are still hard to come by but holsters for their P11 work on this gun and can be found if you look hard enough. Not to mention they are from the other
half of what was Czechslovakia so their quality and workmanship is either equal to or better than CZ's not to mention they are also cheaper, like CZ was a decade ago when no one knew who
they were. I know the Beretta PX4 Storm has had a couple nice reviews here but the sub compact version does not have the rotating barrel system so it's not what I am looking for. Also if the
new CZ P10 mags don't work in the Grand Power I have seen a few videos on how to modify Mec Gar mags to work in them for a cheaper option

Bought a CZ pistol that the local shop had labelled as a model 31 in .32ACP. If you aren't familiar with a CZ 31, join the club (since it doesn't really exist). :o
After disassembly (at the shop), I knew I wasn't buying a vz27 (from the angled lug on the underside of the barrel). They didn't even have the caliber right, since the 7.65 Browning / .32 ACP snap cap dropped half way down the barrel.
On the other hand, a 9x17mm (Browning Short or .380 ACP) fit the chamber quite well. Looks like I have a 1930 or 1931 production (maybe built in 1930 and accepted in 1931) vz 24.

Hey Droopy, Beretta's PX4 compact does have barrel rotation (and older Cougars & Stoeger's version). The compact is barely longer than the SC.
To each his own. I don't particularly find the rotating barrel attractive, but I guess I'm not recoil sensitive. The relatively thick PX4 SC shoots much like a full size IMO, but so does the Rami, PCR, etc. as far as I can discern.
Beretta was my first love, then 1911s came into my life. Sigs are iconic, but the 226 isn't really a match for me. CZs definitely fit my hands, etc. the best and shoot tight groups out of the box, so here I am.
Good luck in your quest to find your perfect mate. Let us know how it works out.

I love my DA/SA CZ's and waited for the 2018 new product announcements hoping, like other leading manufacturers, CZ would offer a pre-milled model(s) with co-witness sights for a RDS. No such luck. So...The Future is TODAY. I traded in one of my last striker-fired guns (a VP-9) for the NEW Sig P229 -9-LEGION RX that comes ALL SET UP with RDS and co-witness. That's 32oz with empty mag on my digital scale:

Thank you both. I'm loving it. I wasn't looking for one but it was a price I couldn't refuse. I'm really glad I didn't.

P-07, although I swore I would never buy a polymer CZ...
I think you'll like it. I like mine more every time I take it to the range.

Was supposed to be a Sig P365 but with all the issues, decided to hold off on it til they're worked out and got an all steel sig P226 instead

What issues are you referring to?

Picked this up at gun show on Saturday.... was looking for a P01 but no luck then saw this and it came home with me.

Because of some issues the P365 shipments have been put on hold so I went out and purchased a P320 X-Carry 9mm.
-
Witness 10mm. Oops. Got one a couple weeks ago and then one popped up on Armslist that I traded a glock and some $$ for so now have two. I need to schedule in some shooting time.

Sig P320, I?ll have to go through hoops to get one in California.

I finally found a Lipsey's Ruger GP100 5 inch 1/2 lug high polish blue 327 Federal at a reasonable price. Should get to my transfer dealer early next week.
-
I think I'm holding out for a CZ compact in Stainless Steel.
Unless I feel the need to have an alternate single stack pocket 9mm. . .
If significant time passes and I don't have one of the above, then I'll likely have scheduled another trip to the Mountains out west (Yellowstone before it blows or similar). If that is the case, I may end up getting that .357 Ruger SP01 for the hip -- great justification for the wife, right? She knows that Grizzly Bear scat contains those little bells and smells of pepper spray.
BTW -- I'm not looking for debates on how a .454, or rifle, etc. would be more effective on bear.

Finally got the FNX-45 I've been going back and forth on for weeks. Super pumped, went with the stainless slide instead of the FDE.. the FN guys say it's the wrong color but I think it's cool 8)
The P-10C already checked my FDE box.

Nope, just the USG with a Stainless slide. All I wanted really.. suppressors and RMRs don't exactly fit in my bedside drawer. I might grab a threaded barrel in the future, and new sights are definitely in order.

Handsome gun; 15+1 of 45ACP is a lot of firepower. And the manual safety or decocker set-up on the FNX IMO is the best.

Just put the first 100 rounds through it, and man! what a shooter. Very little felt recoil with effortless follow up shots. Its big, but doesn't shoot big. I really enjoy it.

Way back in this thread I mentioned I was lusting for the FNX 45 Tactical. When FNH had the 'free' RDS Promo a couple months ago I just couldn't hold off any longer. It is a great gun and surprising how the grip is only 1.3" wide, yet they pack in 15 rounds of 45ACP. It just doesn't FEEL like a big gun but it sure does shoot. Excellent choice! Enjoy. 8)
The Tactical wasn't available with stainless slide, had to settle for titanium.

Either the stainless or the titanium slide on black frame two-tone are really nice; much better than all-black or FDE IMO.
Added the Talon Grip wrap for $17.95. Best 18 bucks I've spent in a long time.
Although I really like my SA 1911 A1, The FNX is a 1911 on steroids. A Century later updated with full ambi controls, I think John Moses Browning would be proud of what his FNH partners have wrought.
Great choice!

Waiting for a CZ PO9 to make it to my FFL. Found a good deal and will be looking for magazines and a holster in the future for it. I think it will fit in a Bianchi UM 84 and that will have to do for now.

I'm picking this one up on Tuesday: the elusive Colt King Cobra .357 revolver, 4" Stainless Enhanced built by the Colt Custom Shop in 1995. Finding a Python is easier than finding a KC in this type of condition and not a whole lot cheaper. Never thought I would get a chance to purchase one of these but when I did, I didn't hesitate.

For me, unexpectedly a used PCR.

Have a VP9-FDE-LE on it's way.

Headed to a gun show in the morning.
First choice would be a 2017 P01 Omega. Don't care if it's a black one or urban gray. Curious about that decocker falling out issue.
Second choice would be an OD Green P07 in 9MM.

No apology necessary! I'm extremely jealous of that Trooper MK V. Colt revolvers are like kryptonite to me. I get all weak-knee'd and irrational whenever I encounter a nice one. It took all of three seconds to become a babbling imbecile over the KC. 4" Pythons also have a similar effect on me.

I purchased a like new gen 1 M&P 9 at my LGS a week ago. I liked my Shield so much I had to get another M&P.

I was not planning on buying another firearm for awhile but I went to the LGS to play at the range and found a deal that I just couldn't pass on. EAA Witness Elite Match
(https://i.imgur.com/fvJGq4O.jpg)
They have 2 more at this price as well. 2 weeks ago it was $700. The guy working the counter said they won't be getting any more in stock as they just don't move them quick enough, so they lowered the price to move them. Accurate firearms in Clarkston Michigan if some one feels the need to adopt the other 2. lol

A friend of mine has one - very good pistol and that is a good price.

I haven't had the chance to shoot it yet. It was soaked in oil and wrapped in a plastic bag from the factory as they gave me an unopened one from the back. I had to take it home and clean it first. I will hopefully shoot it tomorrow.

My thoughts on this go back and forth almost daily. But I keep coming back to the P-07.

I've got full size and sub compact pretty well covered for my needs, I'm kind of thinking I'd like a 75 D PCR next.
And as I've had no luck finding a PCR locally, I've since picked up an urban grey P-07 and a 2075 D RAMI.

I'll be picking up a TALO Ruger GP100 (model 1763) 2.5 inch fixed sight 357 tomorrow. This model looks like the old Speed 6 reborn. Brass bead front sight and Ruger's compact Lett style grips. This could become my new cold weather carry piece. I plan to drop in a 10 pound Wolf hammer spring and 8 pound trigger return spring along with a basic polish of the trigger and hammer.

Ha! I don?t know what my next one will be but I just got lucky and picked up a P01 Omega yesterday in San Antonio👍 No CZ dealers out where I live...you?ll find a few but not many. I got to handle a Shadow 2 and and a the Orange I handled was amazingly slick...

Picked up my newest wheel gun last night. Replaced the hammer spring with a 10 pound Wolf and the trigger return spring with an 8 pound Wolf. Did a very light polish of the trigger and hammer engagement surfaces. Cleaned and lubed. The DA pull is nice and smooth the SA is a clean and crisp break.
This new Ruger really looks like the Speed 6 I had 20 plus years ago. I hope it's as accurate.
Heading to the range tomorrow afternoon. I've loaded up 100 38 Special target Wad cutter loads, 100 medium level 357 158gr SWC loads and 50 full charge 357 125gr JHP loads. I don't plan to shoot the revolver with my heavy 357 180gr Keith bullet hunting loads or my heavy 357 158gr JHP hunting loads. I'll probably bring some Buffalo Bore 38 Special 158gr +P LSWCHP ammo and some Federal 357 125gr Semi Jacket HP (Fed 357B) to try too.

Found out several days ago my next gun was gonna be a CZ 83 in .380, it came in today.
I think you'll enjoy shooting it.
My first CZ was a nickel finish 83 with black grips that I inherited from my Brother. He had purchased it new as one of the very last NIB 83's that were offered by CZ-USA about 10 years ago. It introduced me to the wonderfulness of CZ's DA/SA and I was amazed at how good it felt and shot. Then...I purchased an SP-01; and I decided to consolidate my ammo to 9mm and traded the 83 toward a P-01.
I loved the 83...but it was my only 380 ACP, and consolidating allowed me to buy 9mm in bulk.
The money I saved on ammo alone allowed me to buy a couple more 9mm CZ's. O0
Good luck with it. I'm sure you never lose anything on your investment.
-
I?ve been toying with the idea of the P365, but it seems there are endless early adoption issues popping up every day on SigTalk... plus I can?t even CCW in NJ since it?s basically illegal.

Probably a Sig P210.

I just might be tempted by the new Ruger GP100 in 10mm. Just might......

P-07 or Sig X5

Got the email that deguns.net had a SIG P365-9-BXR3 available to me at Sale Price of $499.
This is the revised one with the upgraded XRay3 sights. Size of a G43 but with 10+1.
I had to jump on it!
Added $10 in merchandise to get above $500 for FREE SHIPPING using code SHIP30.
It's on it's way to my FFL. Woo Hoo! BTW...They sold out again within minutes!

I was leaning towards picking up a second P-10C but decided this weekend that I am sticking to TDA for all new pistols.
Next will be a P-09 from CGW at the end of summer and then... time to work on getting some Berettas, an HK P30L and a Sig 226 or MK25 ;-)

Sticking with one platform, especially TDA for defense; makes a whole lot of sense.
The trend in striker-fired triggers has gotten too light for a carry gun IMHO.
But, for deep conceal Summer Carry, there's slim pick'ins in pocket-size TDA.
I was pleased to see reviews measuring the new Sig 365 at 6-1/4 to 6-1/2 lbs.
My micro-9 Sig 290rs is DAO; and I'm OK with that too.

Agreed. Too many light strikers out these days. I can't help but think it is popular because it masks poor fundamentals so that even marginal shooters can seem pretty decent ;-)
Yeah, ok, I know that paints with an overly broad brush. I do honestly think it is a factor, though.
The light triggers wouldn't concern me if the guns were equipped with good thumb safeties but no one seems to want those. Most guns with thumb safeties I've had hands-on with were pretty abysmal in the ergonomics department... even the (budget) 1911s. I totally get not wanting that, but safety should come first!
Anyway, I have made peace with my path - I am a TDA guy. Might as well revel in it :)
For pocket carry, I am still a fan of the old standby: a snub-nose revolver. I have an LCR in 9mm that works pretty well when I absolutely must scale down. The moon clips make for a better reload experience too. Feels a bit like shooting a staple gun but that isn't all bad...

Did something borderline stupid last night. I bid $100 on a new Ruger Security 9 at a fund raiser silent auction. I got a call this afternoon, seems I was the only bidder. I'll be picking up my new pistol over the weekend. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it. If I don't like it, I figure I can always sell it for a couple of hundred on the local gun trader board.
I bid $8500 on the Merkel 9.3x74R double rifle I really wanted, it sold for $12400.
