With the CZ75 SC Massada roll mark? Very nice!

Post by: pontiacjim on February 04, 2016, 09:13:16 PM: Yes there is a couple of semi-compacts on there also. I bought a semi-compact and a massada a couple of weeks ago. Very good guns for the money. He sales pretty good guns and does not put the import junk on them. I like that about his guns.

Post by: Westy on February 05, 2016, 04:33:52 PM: I really want to track down a well "loved" 75 and breathe some life back into it. I'll have to keep an eye on this seller, thanks for the heads up!

Post by: Pmills on February 05, 2016, 09:36:07 PM: Picked up the semi-compact, today, i do like it a lot, originally bought it for a dedicated lower for my kadet kit, not reliable w my other 75s as they all have the cgw trigger jobs done and are a little too light for consistency with 22 lr.

Its not in terrible shape as far as finish, although definitely worn,after getting it i was thinking maybe getting a 2 tone cerakote on it, fiber optic front and new rear sight, and maybe getting the trigger done, the compact barrel with full size frame feels good, but if i did all that i'd have to buy another 75 to put my kadet on, Definitely a sickness.

By the way mine was roll marked semi compact, no massada

I agree. CDI is great to do business with.

Title: Re: CZ pre-B 75's on gun broker
Post by: scooby on February 07, 2016, 11:25:57 PM: Well, I won the one I was looking at, 89 pre B. Seems to be a very reasonable price.

It seems like the guns that ShadowSP01 (?) is refinishing are coming from CDI, which make me both nervous and excited. Nervous, because the ones he is restoring seem pretty beat up and have some rough barrels (he's had to recrown a couple); but excited by just how nicely his projects are coming out.

My description says Good condition overall with slight pitting on the slide, bore Very Good. Looking at the photos, I see that the finish is very rough, but nothing seems to be past the gray under-metal finish; don't see anything terrible (I know the CZs are phosphated underneath, which make them very tough to rust). I got a cheap shooter FEG HP from CDI a few years ago, and the condition was better in person than described; that seems to be CDI's rep.

I'm hopeful that I can get this one up and running without too much fuss. I'll post when I get it in

Post by: scooby on February 11, 2016, 10:00:23 PM: It came in Wednesday, and I'll say I got my money's worth- it's a good, honest, well used CZ. The finish has seen far better days, but everything is tight and smooth after a pretty thorough cleaning. The barrel looks fine, I can't wait to take it out to the range for a test run.

I'll post some pics soon.

Post by: scooby on February 14, 2016, 01:16:10 AM: Well, took it to the range, and put it through it's paces. First magazine it was having a little stiffness, slide wasn't returning back all the way a couple of times. That was with Blazer Brass FMJ 124 gr. After that, it seemed to loosen up and shoot well; tight groups, sights dead on. I shot a variety of ammo brands, all FMJ: 115 gr Herters, 115 gr Fiocchi, 124 grain Aguila. Gun shoots like a champ.

Post by: SPO1SHADOW on February 21, 2016, 10:26:15 AM: I love those old beat up guns. The pre-B's are a steal even with the rough finish and the damaged crowns. You can strip the black off and if the steel underneath is undamaged you still have a rust proof gun. I am looking for a good frame so I can do a Phosphate frame and rust blue slide 2 tone.
Anyone who buys one of these that needs the barrel crown repaired just send it to me and I will help you out.
