The Firearmguy on YouTube paints a bleak picture........
« on: January 25, 2024, 08:36:12 PM »
for CZ as a company and their firearms.  Go take a look at what he has to say.  Pretty dismal and somber booth at Shotshow with nothing but a new blued Colt Python and 1911s with new grips.  Basically, hang on to the CZs you have.  It doesnt sound like Colt is putting much effort into new CZ pistols.  SMDH  >:(

If you think about it the factory in Brno might be overwhelmed with contracts for Ukraine. And with the low prices of P10c they’re hoping to buy market share until they have capacity to turn out some new products. Just a thought and will have to do some research

So is HK going out of business too? From what I've read on the internet HK didn't have much of anything on their table either. It was on the internet so I'm 100% sure it's true.

If I remember correctly, CZ bought Colt, not the other way around.

This forum has a little group that thinks CZ is controlled by Colt because Colt has employees with master degrees.

Hit up YouTube and see what the firearmsguy says about all of this. CZ, buying colt, but colt basically taking over with the personnel that was there.

The firearmguy has been going to shot show for the last 10 years. None of the CZ people he connected with are at CZ anymore.  They were layed off.  Only colt guys were at the show.

Right and the company I worked for 15 years ago.. Before I left they bought another company and laid off their own people... Guess what happened? They are still in business and doing well.

Just getting it out there as to what was seen and heard at ShotShow 24 concerning CZ.  Don’t shoot the messenger. 

I guess we will see what transpires.   8)

I’ve played bean counter on occasion. Send Colt, USA-based guys to a Las Vegas show. Send Czech guys to IWA in neighboring Germany, well maybe a token US guy too. He sounds and looks hilarious on the video [emoji6]

Company I worked for 6-7yrs ago was bought as well.  New owners let go of most original employees of this company. 2yrs ago they filed for bankruptcy and the company is no more.  This is after the original owners were in business for 30yrs.  Just sayin………

 He lost me less than a minute in when he was wrong about the TS2 9mm being discontinued. There are four active TS2 models currently, orange and not orange in 9mm and 40. Plus, there are CZ people at SHOT in 2024 that have been at CZ for years prior to CZGroup acquiring Colt. He either doesn't really know anybody or knew something like two people. Heck, one guy has been at CZ-USA for 13+ years. He's right about a couple things, but wrong about so much else I wouldn't trust him on anything.
