My Israeli Refurb Project a Pictorial.
« on: June 09, 2016, 09:33:26 PM »
I made an impulsive purchase of one of AIM Surplus' Israeli CZ-75 pistols last month. I traded off a CZ-75B several years ago and always wished for another. I thought it would be interesting for others to follow along with my "on the cheap" refurb. I don't want to spend any more than I need to, but I want a decent looking shooter. The only thing is, it all gets done by me...100% DIY. I'm a casual shooter/gun enthusiast and am reasonably handy with tools. I am not a gunsmith. My only experience of this kind is due to ownership of many different firearms and a curiosity on how they function. I offer this up for entertainment and informational purposes only. I plan no real alterations of this pistol other than a facelift and some smoothing of the action. So, let's go.








This pistol would be just fine after a deep cleaning. It came out of the box filthy but in decent condition. My first step was to completely disassemble down to the frame; this anemic black spray paint has to go.




This stuff comes right off.

Duracoat DuraPark in black. I'm averse to bling. My flashiest pistol is stainless. Truth be told; I'd be tempted to simply clear coat this pistol if its appearance was uniform.

I have three new mags coming from Mec Gar so while it's in pieces, I can do the magwell mod.

What can be seen of the stripped frame, looks pretty good on the outside.
 That could be a real good shooter.
Looking forward to your progress.
