Just bought my first gun, and I made it a CZ-40b. It took me a while to do the research on all the guns I was looking at, and I got it down to three; The Glock-17, Ruger-P95, and the CZ. After going to the local gun show here in Cleveland, I was able to handle all three guns and found that the CZ had the best feel in my hands and had some really nice movements. Like I said, I have never owned a gun nor have I ever fired one, so when I got home and found out that I picked up the 40 S+W version and not the 9mm one, I was a bit shocked. 1. I didn't know they made a 40cal. version of the gun, 2. I thought that the "kick" of a bigger bullet would make for a harder shot, and 3. once I found out what I had, I did some research and found that they had some problems with the bigger bullets.
So after handling the gun all day and getting a feel for it, I had put two of the three worries to rest. I'm glad I have the extra power of the 40 cal., and after reading some of the messages here and on other sites, I found that reliability on this gun is on par with guns of the same capability. I have not had a chance to fire this bad boy yet to see how hard it is to fire, but I have also read that this is not a problem either. I'll write a message next week and let all of you know what I think of the gun after I have fired some rounds. If you have any comments on some of the worries I had expressed, I would love to hear what you have to say. I would also like to know what you guys think is the best bullet for this gun as far as accuracy goes.
Talk to ya later.
