    Default must..have..CZ 75b !!

    Did you ever regret turning down a gun purchase for years? I'm sure many of you have. For me, it was about 7yrs ago. I was at a lgs, TargetWorld in Chalfont. I asked about the available 9mm's in stock..used. The salesperson said he had two CZ 75's that just came in and owner wanted 375 for each. I held one, found it comfortable in the hand, but at the time had never heard of it(being sort of a handgun noob) so I handed it back to him.
    Since then, I've owned quite a few 9mm's, Glocks, Sigs, Beretta, Taurus(eesh) and still own the polymer variant CZ 75 P-07 Duty which I like very much. But, that full-size all-steel CZ is still haunting me. The Beretta 92FS I owned was one of the best shooters to date. VERY accurate. I'm thinking that is another I will own again, this time a new one..all pretty and non-scratched up.
    I see on GB the prices have come down on the CZ's since earlier this year, which at one time was over $600. I can get one for a total OTD price of $510 NIB with two mags. It's a bad time of year to have that gun-buying itch, so I'm thinking I will put my S&W model 10 3" up for sale to offset the cost.
    How bout u? anyone ever regret getting a CZ 75b?

    First, yes you need a 75.
    Second, please don't sell your 10. You'll end up regretting that one too.
    Third. If you don't want to wait you won't be disappointed in a $350ish Canik S-120.

    I fully agree, keep the S&W 10 (I have a fair number of these including the earlier M&P 1905 models, and they just keep working), then also buy the CZ75B. I have only the steel versions, no "combat tupperware please!" and they are accurate and low recoil with regular 9 mm (no +P+). Can find them S/H if you look. Dave_n

    You won't regret buying a 75b, I have one in black and one in polished stainless. They are great shooters. The new ones come with a softer grip that feels really good compared to the old ones. As far as regret goes I had a chance to buy an Adam tyc spo1 shadow for $1100 and passed it up because I had a couple CZs already. Well now I'd gladly pay $1800 but they are impossible to get. Sometimes you just got to buy what you want, as long as you take care of your family and save a little there is nothing wrong with splurging, you work hard for your money!

    Exactly 100% what he wrote. I learned the hard way, over several years and lost $$, to not sell a gun to get another gun. CZ75's will always be around.
    I'm just learning to appreciate wheel guns, keep it and wait.

    I bought a CZ-75B several years ago when I recall they were selling for well under $500. It's a really handsome handgun although somewhat large so I suspect it works better with big hands. Good magazine capacity and accurate. If you love a Browning Hi-Power, you'll love the CZ-75.

    I went "Old School" with it, Called the Kansas City warehouse direct, and bought a pair of factory walnut grips. It sure does look fine dressed in walnut.

    Don't beat yourself up too bad. A lot of us have stories of seller's remorse, or about the ones we let get away.

    My cz was my first gun and I love it dearly. I found it at Locke's outside Philly for 500 even.

    It is the bd police model. I'd have preferred a safety to a decoder but I still love the gun and would never sell it!
    interested in a cz kadet kit, if anyone's selling

    Man those 75B's are sweet! I've shot a few and will own one someday.

    I would hang on to the Model 10 though, especially a pre lock with 3" barrel.
    They ain't makin no more.
