Buying A New CZ97BD

[tfunge]

Hi i am new on this site & glad i found it! I had 3 choices 45s Sig P220,P227 & CZ97BD and decided on the CZ.Now the confusing part out of the box i hear the CZ S & D triggers are a little sloppy.I am not into any competition shooting just would like the quality & reliability . Should i buy a new CZ97BD and shoot for a while then upgrade at a latter date or just order a CZ97BD-E?

There is nothing sloppy at all about box stock CZ triggers. They are extremely reliable service grade assemblies and will function flawlessly for many years and thousands of rounds of use. They can be made better with the use of aftermarket parts from CZ-USA, CZ Custom, and Cajun Gun Works but that is all up too what you prefer.
Personally I'd go with the BD and see how you like it and you can personalize to your preference later on. The B E is a nice piece to be sure but its really your call.

Im in the process of tracking one down to hold i have not held one yet. I have regular sized hands & wear size LG gloves just want to get a feel before i order. NJ sucks for gun stores.

Not "sloppy" but often "gritty" at first, although after a few hundreds snaps (rounds or snap-caps) they smooth out quite a bit.

I'm not a competition shooter either, and really like the factory triggers on all my CZs, including my CZ97BD. So my advice is to shoot 500 rounds and then re-evaluate; my guess is that you'll be happy as a clam by then.

FWIW, it is impossible to beat CZs in quality and reliability -- they are tanks and garbage disposals that eat pretty much anything without a hiccup. As Hickcock45 says "CZ doesn't make junk."

I wish i had a range like Hickcock45.

My guess is that we all do, but the missus probably would not appreciate country living much.

You will find out that every CZ pistol has a different acting trigger.....   None of them are bad they are just different.
My 97 has been Cajunized and the trigger is amazing.  It is by far my best shooting gun.
My SP-01 is also amazing and the trigger on it is completely stock.

The CZ triggers smooth out after some shooting and are very reliable.
If you really want a gun that will blow your mind get the 97 and send it to David at Cajun Gun Works..... get the enhanced package......   You can thank me later.
