About the Gun

The CZ-75 pistol was developed by the Koucky brothers, who worked at the state-owned arms factory Ceska Zbrojovka in the city of Uhersky Brod Czechoslovakia, now the Czech republic. This full-size semiautomatic pistol first appeared in the 1975, and the production began circa 1976. It is one of the original wonder nines featuring a staggered-column magazine, all-steel construction, and hammer forged barrels. The CZ-75 accumulated the best features from many preceding designs. The resulting pistol is aesthetically attractive, comfortable to handle and shoot, quite accurate and reliable in operation. Produced in various versions and modifications, CZ-75 is also widely copied and cloned.

Production

Production of this high-polished stainless variant began in 2006 and continued through various limited runs. Specific dates may vary based on batches, but it remains a sought-after model from that initial release period onward.

Analysis

This 9mm pistol is a well-regarded choice among handguns for its blend of performance and design. Its accuracy is noteworthy, delivering consistent results in both casual and competitive shooting scenarios due to a solid barrel and sight alignment. The ergonomics are a key asset, with a grip that fits comfortably in a variety of hand sizes, promoting control during extended use. Reliability is another strength, as it functions smoothly across a range of conditions with minimal malfunctions when properly maintained. However, maintenance can be somewhat demanding, requiring regular attention to keep it in optimal condition. Parts availability may also pose a challenge in certain regions, potentially delaying repairs. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 5 pounds in single action, which aids precision. Felt recoil is moderate, manageable for most shooters, though newer users might need time to adapt to its feedback.

I may be "intermediate" but...
By USER4513 on 17 Oct 2023
I've spent a lot of time on ranges with rental firearms and after shooting the CZ-75B, I bought one. Aside from not being good for concealed carry (IMHO) it is one of the sweetest running pistols I've ever used. I felt that it was almost difficult to miss a target. Great looks, machining, comfort, and shooting.

World's Best Service 9mm
By R4002 on 25 Jun 2021
Jeff Cooper called the CZ 75 "the world's best service nine" and he's not wrong. The pistol (I have a CZ 75 B - the original type, no decocker - so you can carry it in Condition 1 cocked-and-locked or Condition 3....). The CZ 75 B fits the hand in a way that no other pistol does...perfectly. I prefer to simply fire every shot single-action. Flick the safety on with the hammer back....then flick it back off when ready to fire. Elegant lines. Better looking pistol than the Browning Hi-Power, to which it is often compared. NOT a Hi-Power knockoff or copy. Dozens of pistols are straight copies or clones and others built upon the CZ 75 platform. Shooting the CZ 75B is an absolute joy. It's all-steel and eats up recoil. Recoil is closer to a "push" than a "kick" and there's very little muzzle flip, even when using high-pressure ammunition. I prefer the 9mm NATO spec stuff (124 grain). Mine came with the accuracy-test target paper from the factory. They use S&B 124gr. 9mm FMJ
