I bought a cdi cz75 pre-b a couple of months ago, the one i bought had been parkerized, so the finish was basically new. Very nice gun, trigger was better than my other cz's before getting the CGW treatment by Dave. Put my Kadet top end on it for a dedicated 22 cz75. I had emailed him before hand to see if he would ship it without the mag to NY, and he was very accommodating, Extremely Fast shipping also.
