Hello All.
Took my new CZ75B to the range today and am happy to report all is well......
Gun feels good shooting has a nice feel to it, I like it much better than my Beretta 92FS. Feels as good in my hands as my 1911 Springfield LW Operator...... At less than half the price of my 1911 this gun is a keeper.
Nice post. I never had or shot a Beretta 92 but my friend is seriously considering buying one, or possibly a CZ75. What would you have me tell this person?
I've had the 92FS for about a year now then I moved into the 1911 and instantly fell in love with it. The 1911 just plain feels like it was designed for my hand. Had a M&P9 that I sold, just didn't feel right for me. Took the money and started to look for a 9mm that felt as good in my hand as the 1911. Dave at my local gun store took the CZ75B out of the case and said try this and see how it feels! He noticed the grin on my face and said I'll go in the back and get you one ready.
Still like my 92FS, but the CZ is now my favorite gun to shoot. Took it to the indoor range last Thursday and am happy to report it worked great. If one has "big hands" the 92FS is a great gun, my hands are more on the medium side. The 1911, CZ75B & 92FS are all legends and I am happy to shoot any of them. My shooting buddy at work fell in love with the CZ also when he put it into is hand, he too has a 92FS.
If there is a range near your friend that rents guns see if they have a 92FS and shoot it. I find that I am more accurate with the CZ, but that's just me. My 92FS was shot in a ramson rest and meets Beretta's spec's.
I shoot reloads and tailor the rounds to the gun. The 92FS has a lot more chamber to rifling room than the CZ does. RN ammo isn't a problem but hollow points are. Nosler's for instance must be pushed into the case a lot more than the 92FS. The rounds that I make for the 92FS won't fit into the CZ. That's the nice thing about making your own ammo. Keep in mind that when you push in the bullet more the pressure in the case goes up so you might have to reduce the powder charge a little. Never start at maximum charge when reloading! Always consult a good reloading manual.
