Displaced Yankee 3 Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 I'm looking for a new handgun and was pretty settled on getting the Taurus PT 24/7 but then started reading about CZ's. So now I'm trying to decide between the Taurus PT 24/7 or the CZ 75b. The CZ forum has lots of rave reviews on the accuracy of the CZ and that's what I'm really looking for. I'm also looking to stay below $500.00. So I'm looking for thoughts on either of these or at this point I'm also open to any other 9mm in that price range. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bvamp 604 Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 this is the cz75 you want, the bd model. this isnt a bad price for one either, actually: http://gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=45169610 ive shot several different cz75's and liked them all. very nice gun for the dollar. havent shot that particular taurus, but after you find one that DOESNT crack on the grip after a few hundred shots, they are pretty good too.

I'm sure you're sick of hearing this, but I'd take them both and shoot them and see which one you like better. They are both great pistols. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bvamp 604 Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 yeh true. the cz75 is hard to beat for the price though, regardless. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Displaced Yankee 3 Posted March 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 (edited) yeh true. the cz75 is hard to beat for the price though, regardless. There's another Police model on gunsamerica with the night sites for the same price. Very tempting!! Edited March 18, 2006 by Displaced Yankee Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uzitiger 193 Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 I have a Baby Eagle made by Israel Military Industries which is a CZ clone witha polygonal rifled bore. The EAA Witness is another CZ clone made by Tangfolio who supply parts for the Baby Eagle. You can't go wrong with a CZ or it's clones, they're well made and are based on the Browning Hi-Power with the slide inside the frame. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bvamp 604 Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 displaced yankee: make sure if you DO buy a CZ 75B it is a 75BD. if the model number does not have a D in it, it isnt double action, I dont think, and needs to be cocked when drawn initially. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Actually they are DA/SA. The BD's have the decocker lever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Had i had the funds at the time i would have snapped it up that day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
