I just found a Kadet that was on sale and I had to purchase it.  I've been contemplating getting one for the last couple of months now and figured I should get one now while I can still find one.  Still waiting to receive it though.  Can't wait to check it out.

I thought I had hit the CZ jackpot at a show this weekend. I paid my fee, walked into the show room, and boom, first table has 2 guys with a CZ 85 and a complete Kadet pistol, neither with price tags on them. The two guys were busy talking to each other, and I didn't grab their attention right away. My mind was churning, figuring I would have enough cash on me to cover one but not both and wondering which I should pick.  Finally I asked what the asking prices were, and was immediately told that the guns weren't actually for sale, the one guy was just showing them to the other.

Too bad, but it was at least nice to see another CZ fan in the area.

This guy apparently brought the CZs in ONLY for the purpose showing them to his buddy. He was gone along with the guns right after I walked away. It was just happenstance that I walked in while they were sitting out looking like they were for sale.

Just seems odd that he would place "HIS" personal Pistols on a Display Table
It is what it is.....Still sucks though

Hey Paul:
Yes, the Kadet is so close to the CZ75 it'd be hard to tell the difference in the dark
You know, if you just want the "Kit" (Upper and Mags) you could always sell the Lower to recoop some of your cost

So, is the lower kadet pistol the same thing as a cz75?

Been keeping my eye on the kadet kits and pistols on gb, and saw a pistol just sell for over $800.  I guess I will not be buying  a kadet pistol in the near future.  Hopefully I will find one at a reasonable cost in the future.

The Australian distributor has been advised that the factory will be doing a Kadet kit run on 20 May and he is expecting stock in June.
However only 10 are being allocated to Australia, less that he would like.

FWIW,
There's a complete Kadet pistol (@650.00) for sale on ar15.com in the handguns classified section

Not mine but I figured I pass it on to the cognoscenti   ;)
