C43AMG,

I'm curious how much did all the work on your SA set you back with Matt.  I'm thinking about doing the same with mine.
Thanks.

I just bought a CZ75B SA in .40 s&w specifically for USPSA. I've shot it in one match and practiced with it once now. No failures of any variety yet. It's very accurate and shoots well. It's currently my only CZ.

Just took delivery of my SA today.  After reading posts about plastic triggers, I was pleased to see that this one came with a solid looking/feeling metal trigger (looks "anodized"; is it aluminum or steel?)  This thing is so cool  -I like the subtle differences from the std 75B, e.g. beavertail & "flat" sides on the foreend/slide area.

What do you use for cleaning the polycoat models?  I'm assuming solvent is still OK for the barrel once it is removed.  But what about the rest of the internals & the external finish?  I have been using "BreakFree CLP" on a stainless revolver I have - would this harm my CZ?

Can't wait to shoot it, but know I got to clean the shipping-goop off first.

Also, how common is it for relatively new pistol-shooters (no law-enforcement background or other formal training) to get involved in USPSA shooting, & what kind of preparation is recommended?

Finally, I have nice things to say about the retail dealer where I bought my SA - they don't stock it, were willing to do a FFL transfer (CA) from my preferred online dealer for reasonable fee, but ultimately just offered to order it  f:) or me at lower over-all cost to me.  Is there an appropriate place on this forum to post a kind word about them?

I've got mine just about the way I want it.  





Matt Mink did the trigger work and I added the sights and did the grips.  Someday I may get a set of fancy grips and some hard chrome, but I plan to shoot it in the 2008 Steel Challenge and I'm not gonna play with it any more until after the match.

I have a CZ75BSA serial # AV5XX that i bought new not long after they came out and has been my steel challange gun for years. Most accurate hand gun i ever had and its the cheapest gun i ever bought ( paid $375.00 out the door ) altho their prices, like everthing else, have gone up. Have shot well over 25,000 rounds through it and its as accurate now as when i bought it but i do keep it well lubed. I know the 42mm red dot looks big but i'm old.

Well, I just bought this beautiful weapon 2 days ago from your friends at www.ghostholster.com   This is my first fully customized weapon and after I took it to the range today I was very impressed.  I shot 100 rounds through it and not one problem.  Not only did it perform flawlessly, but I had a few guys coming up and asking what it was and where did I get it.  Such an awesome shooting weapon.  The shop did an outstanding job.

eerw...Sure when I get home I will take a picture of the rear sight. It was machined into the pistol and is an LPA Bomar Cut rear sight with a front fiber optic sight. The people over at www.ghostholster.com will do the install if you dont have anyone to do it for you or if you cant do it yourself. The one I now have has a customized trigger job and you have to be very careful since the pull is short. Had a guy at the range ask if he could shoot and when the 2nd round went off he looked at me and said I wasnt expecting that! I thought it was funny since now after 50 rounds I am used to the trigger. When I shot rapid fire (a full magazine) I had a couple stry off of a 5 inch circle about 2 inches but the rest of the rounds went into the circle. Needless to say I am a happy camper.

I received my SA last week, and I have shot it once.  100 rounds, accurate, no problems, yadda yadda.  However, I was a little disappointed with the trigger out of the box, VERY gritty.  Yes, I know they are supposed to smooth up with use, but I don't care as I sent it to my smith (as I intended beforehand) for an action job using Angus parts straightaway.  He made my 85 Combat into a sweet-singing lead expeller, I expect the same with the SA.

CZ 75B SA, 9mm with Custom Competition Sights

 

A few weeks ago I took delivery of a CZ 75B SA with the Custom Competition Sight Package from Angus at Ghost Productions. The pistol holds 16 in the magazine +1 in the chamber.

 

 

Basically the gun shot better than I do. I wear bifocals and, with the range being indoors and somewhat dark, I had to take them off so I could focus on the fiber optic front sight.  Shooting outside is not an issue.

 

The first time at the range, I used a 50-round box of Remington FMC 115gr FMJ ammo from Wally World.  The CZ shot flawlessly, considering my vision, and there were no malfunctions of any kind.  The SA trigger was crisp and comparable to the 1911s I've shot.  In addition, the ergonomics are fantastic.  To date, I've put about 500 rounds, mostly WWB, through it with only one stovepipe using Wolf ammo.  I'll stay away from that ammo.

I'm picking up my 2nd CZ tomorrow, a 75SA.  I'll post pics when I get it home.
