Post by: IDescribe on July 09, 2017, 12:18:33 AM: You want the Springer Precision mount. It will accept a Burris Fastfire III, a Docter optic, or a Vortex Venom. I have two Springer Precision mounts for two different pistols, one with a Burris and one with a Vortex. I won't tell you that one is better than the other. ;)

Here is my 97-BE with a Burris:

There are two Springer CZ optic mounts: one for the Shadow and Kadet, one for the CZ75. The one for the 75 fits the 97 and the polymer models. Link is here:

Post by: Joe L on July 09, 2017, 07:39:00 AM: The Springer Precison 75B mount and a Burris FF III with 3 moa dot has been on my 97 for 2-1/2 years and survived many bullseye matches and demo videos out to 100 yards with zero problems. I did have to shim the dovetail when I first installed the mount on my particular slide but it hasn't been touched since.

I have the same parts on a P-09 and a 75B 9mm, and had the assembly from the 9mm 75B slide on a P-07 long enough to win a local bullseye match, then it went back on the 75B slide.

The results are limited only by your ability to place the dot in exactly the same spot from one shot to the next. The hardware itself isn't sleek or pretty, but it IS functional. I've got lots of videos to illustrate.

Now that's what I'm talkin' about.

Great group and it just goes to show, if you master trigger control and sight alignment, a handgun is a formidable weapon. Excellent shooting my friend :)

Post by: Boris_LA on July 29, 2017, 01:36:12 PM: Just following my own advice. Small steps. All on the paper, all in the scoring rings, all in the black. One step further is to make that black smaller too. :)

...... a handgun is a formidable weapon..... :)
Especially after few checks to CGW and a lot of reloading advises from great members of this forum. Thank you all.

Post by: handig00 on July 30, 2017, 02:00:09 AM: Awesome, I been considering the Burris FF mainly because of the warranty and price.
Sounds like it's a great product all around.
Thanks for the info , and nice shooting !

Title: Re: CZ 97 with a Red Dot?
Post by: Richrit on August 23, 2017, 08:45:06 PM: Got the slide back today, will be interesting to learn. One thing i forgot about was the gun will not fit in the CZ case. Time to cut foam.
