CZ 75 Compact?

karodger · 11-04-2009

I'm looking for a 40S&W and found a CZ 75 Compact in a gun shop in Delphi a few months ago. Now that I'm looking more seriously into buying one I was wondering if anyone has one? What are your impressions?

Anyone else have any other ideas for a 40? I've also been looking at XD's. I'm plenty familiar with Glock's. Looking for information on other guns

I was thinking P-06, but I believe I would like the safety better than the decocker. I need to call KS&E, they said they could order it without much trouble. If anyone has one just laying around that they want to get rid of though...

+1 for KS&E! I'm sure they'd have the best price out there.

yes KS&E for sure! I looked at the P-06 but not sure if I care to much about the decocker and such. plus gotta love the dark-forestish green on the 75!

Ive got a cz75 compact with a decocker. (actually a cz75 D pcr compact).

For me its the perfect size compact. I get my entire hand on the grip with out pinky extensions, and the grip is "just right". Nice weight to the gun, all metal, and an accurate shooter.

basically, it just feels right!

Ditto to this on the CZ...

I have several. Do you know which model you looked at?

The "C" is a compact version, all steel, its just a small version of the 75-B.
The "D" is a decocker compact version, lightweight alloy.
The "P-01" is similar to the D but with an accessory rail.

I've got/had all 3 and consider the CZ75 (in any variant) to be the best of the non-1911 designs. The Browning HP, if it was a DA, would aspire to be a CZ75. Grip, controls, point angle is virtually the same as a HP, which is virtually the same as the 1911. Great guns. Mine are/were all 9mm. While I carry a 1911 most of the time, my house guns are CZ75 pistols.

It was several months ago but I believe it was right at $600.

This is exactly what I looked at

We've created a monster in the CZ line....

They used to be a well kept secret, priced accordingly. Now the price has caught up to the quality.

CZ..... hard to go wrong with one.
