That's ok, we understand your lust for something better.

It's not surprising the first page had more to do with urine than CZs....

BA, the pre B or the A (techinical ) has the look I want. If I have to open up the magwell, I can do that. If I can find one made in '92 that would be ideal for me.

I can understand that. You will either have to live with the stock sights or have someone mill the slide. Milling the slide would lead to refinishing.

Welcome, what could go wrong?

We'll have to see about the sights. I'm sure it could be done without refinishing, not like anyone has to worry about scratching anything... I want the nastiest looking one available.

This first one makes me feel all tingly in my danger zone...

The link is to CDI in Kentucky. They list what you are looking for as CZ 75. The ones with the B features are listed as pre-Bs.

Stripped grip screws, ya think?

For finish wear it still doesn't hold a candle to the Beast. The tape is a nice touch, though.

Morning folks!

I love that new thread smell.

Sight options are almost non-existent for the pre-Bs. The front sight is staked on and the early pre-Bs had a different rear dovetail. I was told by one gun smith that you have zero options on the front sight due to the thin material around the top of the bushing which gives very little room for a dovetail. The 75Bs have a ridge that run on top that gives room for a dovetail, but that does not exist on the pre-B.

I've wondered if it's possible to pull the front bushing, cut a dovetail into the slide and then cut the sight to allow the bushing to be reinstalled. I'm not sure if the dovetails would be too small for a secure mount after that. I have seen a photo of a pre-B that had a Novak sight installed aft of the bushing, which might be an option too.

Maybe, I was thinking a way to mark it? Distinguish it from the others some how...

As an FYI to everyone, in an email I invited David at Cajun Gun Works to stop by and visit our thread. He has been on INGO before but not for quite a while. I guess it's a good thing we have a fresh new thread.

Hard to beat that 'been there, done that way better than a G****' look.
