That is a super nice find.

That is beautiful, though I wonder about the hammer and grips. I bought my 1985 75 at a small gun store without a clue as to what it was. I held it in my hand, pulled the trigger, and just gave the store owner the money he wanted. That was $400 in 1995. It is my gun for life.
Take care of yours. I'm glad you found it.

OP, what year was your 75 made?  I found a new in box 1991 75 a few years ago in the same box as yours but mine has the Spur Hammer, and an epoxy finish very similar to my 1996 made 75B.  It is not polished blue like yours, but also not the painted on enamel finish of earlier 75's.

I believe it was mentioned somewhere - 1992

Enjoy the photos! 

Quite few transitionals imported about mid-90's, a lot were AA imports.  I have had several non-B guns marked "Model 75" but square trigger guard, pinned in front sight, ribbed slide, straight slide serrations, etc. 

CZ made a lot of "non common" pistols.  I had a CZ 75 non-B in .40 S&W once.  It came in from Pragtrade in Ontario, Canada and was imported into the US by a policeman who submitted the import form to ATF.  Lots of "experts" on here said there was no such thing so I posted pictures.  hahaha  I have read CZ made a run of about 250 .40 cal's sometime before they officially came out with the CZ75B in .40.  Only a few went to Canada and who knows about the rest.

BTW, the matte finish was not parkerizing it was actually a matte blued finish.  Still have a 91 matte blued AA import.

Does anyone know what year the firing pin block was integrated into the CZ 75?
