I got one last year.  Good thing, too.  Nice pistol.  Started off to be pretty accurate and I got sidetracked away from it.  I'm sure it will come back out of the case/safe and get back to the range at some point.

Could prove to be a good pistol for legal reason in this insane asylum the dims/libs/progs/socialist are trying to build in VA.  The proposed magazine law will allow up to 12 round magazines.  And that's what the CZ75B .40 uses, 12 round magazines.  Nothing special.
I just keep wasting time and money on other brands trying to find/make one shoot like my P07 and P09.  What is wrong with me?

They are discontinued, but apparently there are some still on the shelf someplace.

I bought a NIB P-07 40 S&W in 2019 that was manufactured in 2014, so the 40 S&W pistols being available does not surprise me.

Love mine. Took it to the range today, 50 rounds, not a hiccup.

I have the SA .40, one of my favorite handguns. I traded a guy a bone stock gen 3 G19 for it, I think I did pretty well on that one!. Previous owner had put on fiber front sights and target rear.

A 40S&W CZ75 was my first CZ, the one that started the addiction.  I bought it back during the federal AWB days.  I figured that if I could only have 10rds, having 10rds of 40S&W would be better than 10rds of 9mm.  Like all CZ's, it's fun to shoot.  I should break it out this weekend put a couple of boxes through it.

Since they come with ambidextrous thumb safeties all I had to add was a set of CZ85 slide release levers and a spur hammer to get the feel/look/action of my Pre B CZ85.

For those of you that own this one, curious what 75B 9mm accessories fit... Specifically magwells and basepads for competition shooting.  Springer Precision couldn't tell me whether their magwells would fit for sure since it was fit for the 9mm

I think virtually everything except the width of OEM magazine lips are the same. I have a number of MecGar SP01 .40 12 rd mags and they also work fine in my 9mm 75B loaded with 9mm ammo.
