New SAR 2000 in stainless
« on: January 17, 2025, 08:38:55 PM »
Well, I finally bought my first CZ 75 clone, a SAR 2000 in stainless steel.  I've been fondling it on the living room couch while my wife cooks dinner.  Clearly, I'm in the dreamy honeymoon stage of new pistol ownership.   ;D

This is my first CZ 75 like pistol too, which is a little odd to think after 30 years of owning various genuine CZ pistols.  This one fits my hand perfectly, like my P10C, and it fits my hand much better than my beloved old CZ 97.  I can hardly wait to take it out to the woods to try it out.

OK, time to dream about some pretty wooden stocks and some tritium night sights.  Oh, I should try out my P10F mags... I have a feeling they aren't compatible.  So, after that little experiment, I have a feeling I'll be hunting for some Mecgar CZ 75/EAA Witness mags.

Congrats on your clone purchase. You shouldn’t be disappointed. Nightfision.com is a good spot for tritium sights and sarusa.com has some nice wood grips. Welcome to the clone club.

Congratulations on the acquisition of your new stainless SAR 2000 and may it serve you well!  8)  :)

For Magazines, I rather doubt that P10 Magazines are compatible.

Mec-Gar Tanfoglio Defiant/Witness Magazines should be directly compatible.

Mec-Gar Cz75B 17 and 19 round Magazines should also work, but the 16 round standard magazines may come up a bit too short to fully seat.
I regularly use the Mec-Gar Cz75B 17 and 19 rounders in my SAR B6P and K2P/Cm9 G1.

Also, as has been previously mentioned, it would be nice to see it.

Thanks for confirming the mag compatibility.  Out of curiosity I did try a new 17-round mag out of a CZ 75B in the SAR 2000 and it locked right in.  Thanks for the warning about the older 16-round mag.  I saw a few other warnings about that 16-rounder in YouTube videos too.

I haven't tried my P10F mags yet because I've mislaid them in the house somewhere.  Oops.  They'll turn up.

I've also been looking for tritium night sights on-line, and they're looking elusive.  I think I may have to try a cheap set of EAA Witness non-illuminated sights to see if that pattern of dovetail fits before I pop for something more expensive.

I've also been looking for grips, but not a lot of brands mention compatibility with SAR 2000 or SAR P9S.  I found a cheap set of Chinese machined plastic grips for EAA Witness, so if that isn't a size match then I'm not out much money.  They should arrive next week.  If they work, then I will have a slightly larger pool of potential grips.  I'd like to find some smooth wood grips with a narrower profile and a bright, contrasty wood, something rich and elegant looking.

After several years without buying new pistols, it's fun to get something new. :D

Thanks everyone,
Scott

The only place that I have found for night sights for the SAR is at Night Fision......as mentioned previously.  And I have looked extensively.

https://www.nightfision.com/product/night-fision-tritium-night-sights-for-sar-usa

I have even put out requests (with a full set of SAR factory sights sent in for measurement) from other  sight manufacturers, and received a polite no from them.
