I may need an intervention.
« on: September 18, 2012, 08:14:28 AM »
I bought my first CZ, my great little 82, late last year.  I have lately been looking at the P06.  My EDC is a 75 Compact in 9mm.  Since CZ doesn't make a compact .45 I have been wanting to find a .40 for a future EDC.  The P06 would seem to fit the bill but they are very difficult to find.  Yesterday I stumbled upon a CZ 40P for sale in my local area.  The price was reasonable and I had already done research on that model and felt comfortable with the purchase.  So I bought it.  I am perfectly happy with this decision and the gun is very nice.  I now own a 97, two 75Bs one in 9mm and one in .40, a 40B, a 40P, a 75 Compact in 9mm, an 82 and an 83.  Of the nine guns I own, eight are CZs.  This has all happened in less than a year.  I have owned a lot of guns from different makers.  I really love trying new things.  Now I only want CZs.  I guess the bright side is I am already eight steps into the 12 step program.

CZ addiction is a good thing. All my firearms are CZ except for my Ruger P95 and my Yugo SKS.  8)

I have been fighting to restrain myself.

If you want to talk about addiction, look at Offshoreman72.  His are mostly high end CZ's.

I think I am just past the $12,000 mark at the custom shop in about 15 months

If Stuart pops in he can take a gander at my profile.

It isn't pretty....

If anything all you will get here is advice on what to get next, and an at-a-boy for whichever one you pick...like they say "quiters never win" and owning a stable of CZ's is most definitely a win.

There is no problem here there are still many more CZ's that you need to add to your collection I say onward and throw in a few CZ clones while you are at it.

You don't need an intervention...
You just need a bigger safe.

Me two, but have only taken the 'first step'; but I'm fretting over taking step two.  When you can't shoot without thinking about another CZ, you know you have a problem. :o ::)

I noticed you haven't been infected with that DW bug yet. It is fatal to wallet with no known cure.

As for my next purchase?  Leaning heavily towards a Kadet kit.  After that I am going to work on the ones I have to maximize their performance.  I still haven't had any custom work done and I would dearly love to send one off to Arizona.  Alas, I am a poor man and have to wait.  The problem is every time I get a little saved another CZ shows up.  Also, I have no long guns.  Thinking seriously about a CZ rifle and perhaps a vz 58.  I dream a lot.
