    Default CZ 75 Compact Custom

    Saw this and started to drewl But, is it worth $1,000? I can't justify it despite how purdy it is. It says "custom shop" includes custom tuned action, narrowed shadow hammer, ss guiderod, nightsites, checkered coco-bolo grips, polished barrel hood, etc, etc.. But $ 1,000 ????

    Only you can decide if that pistol is worth the $1K price tag. I've owned, and still own CZ pistols for years, and have been very happy with the stock models, especially after the trigger breaks in. If it were me, I'd get a stock P-01 for almost have that price, then if needed install some Cajun Gun Works trigger parts or have a gunsmith do some trigger work.

    Pretty, but definitely NOT $1000 pretty.

    Frankly I cannot get past the huge bulky dustcover on those CZ models, pretty or not.

    Agreed. Not many makes polished blue guns anymore, and I tends to like them. But its not $1000 gun.
    You can buy regular polycoat model, send it somewhere to have it polished blue, for like $250.
    Did they do anything inside like short trigger reset, polished trigger and such?

    I do like their huge bulky dustcovers.
    I also been loving my RIA's bulky full length dust covers as well

    Then again maybe it's a tad high. I thought they were selling closer to that price point.
    Depends on the price of the grips.
    MSRP is $980 for a Compact L

    CZ Custom has them in stock for $860

    They are a rarity.
    Basically a P01 with a safety.

    I really like the one the did with a CTS long slide upper.

    Tuned Compact L?
    Worth $1000?
    Yes. Although I'd want the FPB removed and converted to SAO with flat trigger.

    I own 2 models from the custom shop a an $1800.00 Cz 75 shadow carry model with the short reset trigger system and a Cz 75 ProTek decocker carry pistol was $1350.00 when I bought it about 3 years ago-now $1550.00 to get one.. While both pistols are excellent shooters and from a ransom rest the Accu-Shadow can shoot groups under 2 inches at 50 yards after about the $700.00 dollar range it becomes hard for me to justify any pistol price. The reason is that quite frankly for self defense or IDPA stlye shooting I can get the same results with my daily carry piece which is a Sar B6P compact that cost $292.00 plus an extra $54.00 for two extra mags. If you can afford it buy you will not be sorry with the perfomance. I am actually considering the new Shadow line 75 compact for my collection. If you want to save some money pliot's idea for a base model with some Cajun Gun Works trigger parts and sights won't disappoint you either. I have a $350 Canik SHark Compact built up by me using parts from both Dave at Cajun and CZ Custom shop that is on par with my $1350.00 dollar ProTek CZ. Currently I am waiting for the Canik / Tristar P120 series pistols to reach the Us markets-CZ SPO1 clone- to build up with the 2 custom Hammer / Short Reset Trigger kits that I just got from Dave at Cajun. If you want the Cz and can afford the grand do it.

    The Tristar C100 is beautiful. Just as pretty as the CZ in the thread starter, only more so because there's no bulbous dust cover.
