cz85b and cz85 combat differences

[ffhounddog]

What are the differences between the cz85b and the cz85 combat?

Just like the 75 against 75B, firing pin block.  85B has fixed sight against an adjustable rear sight for 85C.

And stop screw on the trigger.

Net result of the differences is a little better trigger, adjustable but more fragile rear sight, a bit less safe (arguable), and perhaps a bit less reliable (movement of stop screw).

A B is suitable to be used anywhere on the planet, even by someone with minimal training and education; a C is made for and usually used for competitive endeavors.

     CZ-USA: "The CZ 85 Combat adds a fully adjustable rear sight, extended magazine release, drop-free magazine and overtravel adjustment on the trigger. The Combat designation comes from the lack of a firing pin block safety, allowing the replacement of the firing pin without tools.
 
Ambidextrous features include safety levers, slide stop levers and a reversible magazine release. The lack of a firing pin safety gives the 85 Combat a slight advantage in the trigger pull department, making it a long-time favorite of competition shooters."

So basically I like the fireing pin block but is the actual geometry of the trigger on the CZ85b and Combat the same?

I keep hearing get the 85 Combat trigger.

[bugsy_n_blue]

Geometry is identical.  Only additional features are added namely: 
Firing Pin Block removed
Ambidextrous controls (slide stop and safety)
Rear Sight is adjustable against fixed for the B
and maybe a few more

...and perhaps a bit less reliable (movement of stop screw).

Curious...what makes you say this? I have quite a few handguns with over-travel adjustment, and all make for a *better* trigger.

It's another part and can prevent the intended discharge of the pistol.  The general principle is that if it can go wrong, it will.

HI guys, new here and just wondering what cz means by "drop free magazine" is that to help for faster reloads, and can i buy this part and put it on my new 75b if so??  im in love with this pistol and have been kicking some ass with it at the local ranges. i only bought it because no one around me had the 85c in and  im a little imaptient and couldnt wait the two or three months for it to come in.  thanks!

ya drop free means the mags will shoot out when released.

you can buy a drop free mag break or you can look at your mag break and see if there is a bend in it. remove the bend and mags will drop free.
