EAA EZ9

Anybody have one? Like it? These look to be a good pistol at an affordable price to me, selling for around $350 or so OTD. Just wondering what any owners think of theirs.

I have one and all I can say is that you will NEVER regret purchasing it. I have about 150 rounds through it and it has never had any issues whatsoever. The only problem I had was finding 15 round mags. I finally found some and now have 4. It fits the Blackhawk Serpa holster for the Sig P226. Someone told me that some Sig experts tore one down and said the internals were better than a Sig. Everyone I show a picture to thinks its a Sig until I tell them. If I do

Very reliable and great for a left hander.

Is it just me, or did the guy in the video sound like he was reading note cards for the first time ever?

They are for sale through today at our store. I looked at buying one a while back. For the price, I liked the way the gun was put together, reviews online were positive, but mags looked to be awfully hard to find, so I passed.

The mag issue has been on my mind here as well as other small spare such as recoil springs. Zanders , a wholesaler that many dealers in my area patronize usually has the mags and their inventory ,at least a yes or no on in stock items can be viewed here.....

My dealer will order extra mags with a gun purchase at cost or just a bit more.

The EZ9 is EAA's name for the Zastava CZ05, which itself is a development of the CZ99 that was introduced in the early 1990s. It's very similar to the SIG P226, with the most notable changes being the ambidextrous mag release and combination decocker/slide release lever.

Here's an article on the EZ9 from American Handgunner:

Thanks for the links. Yes, the resemblance to the Sig is obvious and the ambi is a good touch. I have no qualms about it's Yugo manufacture and would have none with an XD/XDM.
