Price discrepancy between models
« on: July 28, 2024, 04:41:59 PM »
At a gun show in my region, I noticed a large price discrepancy between the Shadow line of CZ's and the A-models, the A-models being on the order of over $1,000 more than a Shadow. What do you get for the extra money, and is it worth it? I understand that the Shadow line is a step up from the regular 75 line, but is it the trigger, sights, more refined milling or what? How can I compare apples to other apples?

What do you mean by “A model”?

I thought the A01 Pistols are a CZC custom built;

The A-01 are built by CZC for CZ-USA.

Different frame, barrel, slide etc.
If I had known how much better being retired is than working I would have done it FIRST.

welcome

since there are some questions popping up, you really want to come back and clear things up.

or you can do alot more wading/filter through some guesses/assumptions.

If you mean the A-01s as mentioned, take a look at CZ custom and see what they say. The frame are more or less made from the ground up.  Not modded/borrowed existing frames.

but im just guessing too.
