I used the original 75 back in my Rhodesian army days, my current handgun is the 75 B. Accurate, reliable not fussy about it’s diet. Fits in my hand so naturally, and so it’s points just as easily. You won’t be disappointed with this pistol.
I’ve owned - and loved - my 75B for approximately 30 years. Its design, quality, functionality, ergonomics, reliability, durability and accuracy are all superb. Moreover, it converted me to appreciate - and, in fact, to prefer - traditional DA/SA autoloaders to the far more common striker-fired semiautomatics. I do not suggest my preferences are universal or apply to others, but I find the triggers and the safety of DA/SA designs generally to be preferable. 6:13
I prefer all metal hammer fired over the polymer striker fired in general now. The polymer pistols I have get very limited range use now I have a few different 75 series and 1911s I much prefer.
TIP, to line up those two/2 notches leave hammer in half cock position then move slide back to line up marks, the hammer will prevent slide going past alignment of both marks.
The grip in the trigger guard is for your left hand's index finger while you are holding the gun with your right hand. You just take a normal grip with your both hands (just do the damn thumb puzzle) and then grab that trigger guard with your left index finger, because that way you can prevent your gun (barrel) from moving sideways when you pull the trigger.
Got mine for $520 out the door. Beretta grip was just too fat compared to CZ and I like all steel more than aluminum frame. Ordered a slimmer G10 grip for it and fairly inexpensive extra mags. Good overview.
That's a good deal 💯. I went with CZ over Beretta also mainly b/c I didn't want the decocker and now I have the SP-01 and the SP-01 Shadow and am eyeing the Shadow 2 optics ready model.
Cz-75b is the best, buy some wood handgrips and you have a superb handgun. Beretta is a awesome handgun but a little chunky Cz-75b is perfect 🥰 always a fanboy!!!
'Simple is beautiful' ! I WANT IT 🤩 ! That is my first future firearm, I just got my licence but I have to wait 6 months to be allowed to get a personal firearm (France) !
Well 6 months is better than not at all. Is target shooting popular in France? I'm curious how much it costs you in Euros or Francs for the SP 01. I have only seen 1 French made firerarm my entire life and it was an old bolt action MAS rifle. Are there firearms manufacturers in France that are popular?
@@erik22lax Hello ! In France we have Manhurin manufacturer (revolvers), who equiped police in 70 and 80's, plus maybe one or two in hunting rifles, for the army I don't really know... We have 240 000 sport licensees (FFTir), and 1.231.000 hunt licensees (some of them owning the both licenses), for 68 millions inhabitants. Hunt is still popular in France. Law is very restrictive about firearms, and they are much more expensive than in USA... For example, the CZ 75B Omega costs about 1.200€, the basic version of the SP01 1.350€ 🙄.
Liked this video and checked out your list of videos, seen a lot of vids I would like to watch later. I like your general concept of quality guns, Idaho, North Face, Toyotas, You earned a subscriber here today.
I have the cz75B omega trigger. I once owned the Browning hi power which was a great gun but sensitive when it came to different ammo. The Cz is the most accurate handgun I ever shot and I’m 80 years old. The original grips felt uncomfortable with and I changed the grips. Never had a jam, easy to clean. The best.
I've had mine for 15yrs+ and love it. I put the Hogue Rubber Wraparound with Finger Grooves on it from day one and you just can't let go. It sticks to your hand like it's glued on. Very balanced hand gun. Enjoy! :)🦔🦔🦔
The CZ 75b was inspired by the Hi Power. They look very similar. The serrations on the front of the trigger guard is for resting your index finger. Great pistol!
Actually it was NOT. It was inspired by the Sig P210. Watch this series on the history of the CZ 75… ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-omb6h66MSX8.htmlsi=lN4Q5kMeO83Nyv97
I have a CZ 75 Compact that I bought new over 4 years ago and love it. The Compact is basically a slightly smaller CZ 75B. It’s the only CZ pistol I currently have but I would still like to get a full size CZ 75B Retro edition and 2075 Rami some day. Can’t go wrong with a CZ 👍
I have this gun, the BD model, the Compact, the Pre-B, numerous 1911’s, several Beretta variants, two M&P Metals, several Belgium made Hi Powers….. and the winner is… Springfield SA-35. 😮
I always hear how people say about how hard it is to grip the slide. I've never had that issue. Maybe it's a diffence in training where most people get pistols like glicks barrettas and 1911's. My first handgun was a cz75 so maybe it's just a difference in what your used to
Those grips are rubber and they are heavy. You should save about 2 ounces when you replace them with wood. Great choice with your cz75b pistol, the beretta 92 is also a great gun, maybe get one too
I noticed with mine, if i sort of push towards the muzzle on the bottom of the magazine as i insert it, the mag can sometimes get caught on the part of the frame under i believe, the trigger bar. Does yours do that too?
@erik22lax good price and beautiful gun don't sleep on the berreta it's an amazing tool in my opinion and if possible look at the Taurus pt92 stainless steel with a safety on the frame not slide great choice as well.
