Since they don't import the satin nickel finish anymore, and I want to learn more about gunsmithing, my long-term project is to:

1. Buy a used CZ-75B for around $350 or less.
2. Install a Cajun upgrade kit myself.
3. Shoot it for a while to make sure I didn't break anything.
4. Send it to Robar for a full NP3+.

In theory, I'll learn a lot about the mechanics of my gun, and save a little money putting together something really nice. In practice, I may end up with a pile of scrap metal and an empty wallet.

I had a 75B Bi-Tone that I had APW Cogan stipple the front and back straps of the frame and Hard Chrome to refinish to keep the Bi-Tone effect and they did a great job.  I also had them stipple and HC the frame of a 97B that CGW just reworked for me.  There is a picture of my 97B on CGW's Facebook page.  Again, a great job.  I only had the frames done in Hard Chrome, but they can do all the small parts too, if you need it done.  I think they charged $35 to disassemble/reassemble the pistol in connection with doing the work.
