Yeah, and anything that differs from John Browning's original design is not a 1911. So if you've got a 3" or bobtailed etc. gun it must not be a 1911.
What's the Best 9mm 1911 for under $800... or so?

Congrats on your purchase Vern.

You bet it is .... I've been preaching CZ75 for about 5 years now. I think they're truly the 1911 of 9MM's.

You got that right !At least from the research that I have done so far and your advise tips also. And the next time I ask advice from you about any pistol . I am going to lock up my charge cards , change bank account names, and toss lemon juice in my eyes so I cannot read your reply. You are costing me a fortune. I am going to have to leave the Ruger Forums ,I wont have any money left to by the SR1911.
Whats your opinion on the cz 40 and 45 cal . NEVERMIND DONT ANSWER THAT!

I can answer that. Rev thinks that every 40 ever made shoots curveballs and the CZ97 should come with a tripod mount. :?
Nice CZ Verndog! Hopefully you can find some pearl grips to go with the high polish! :wink:

Pearl handles?? I'm not packing that beast into any gay bars bro.
The black rubber grips seemed perfect for a shooter and this will match my Security Six with Pachmyers nicely. Got to post them both just to see myself. 8)

Pretty much what AIA said ... I've owned/analyzed/sold 3 different 40's .... never again. I will NEVER own another 40 as long as I live. I hate them so much that I won't even shoot friend's 40's. With modern 9MM's and the 45ACP ... 40 is a worthless and un-needed caliber AFAIC. If you're a LEO ... fine ... use 40's ... for target use .... 40's blow.
Regarding the 97 .. it's a nice gun ... and supremely accurate ... but it's HUGE .... if I'm shooting a 45ACP ... it's gonna be a 1911.

I agree .... AIA owns a gay bar out in Arizona, and you can't get in without a gun with pearl handles. It's why he moved there ... supposedly 60 percent of the male population of Arizona is gay.

The PC police will be knocking on your doors. :shock:
My mistake. I meant ivory grips. Good enough for George Patton.

Great News!! Found a CZ 75B polished stainless from a local distributor for about the same price to add FFL and shipping to online deal so I sprung for it. Picked up yesterday and put 210 rounds downrange today. What a beautiful piece of craftsmanship this gun is...WOW. You guys were right, this is exactly what I was looking for and I love this gun. I did have 1 fail to feed on the 6th round but I'm going to write that off as limpwrist since I was focusing on the mechanics of grip and gun...after that the next 200+ were perfect. Fired Federal 115gr 200 rounds and 10 Speer Gold Dot 124gr. (my 9c carry ammo).
Here are some pics of this bute, the last is a 5 round sample at 25' at 1.1" which I'm pretty sure is better then I've done with my 9c. That was just the 4th mag I shot. I'm pumped about this work of art!!

Thanks Guys! Since there are 1/2 dozen or so owners here I have a question on something that didn't quite seem right. The recoil spring has a fair amount of bow to it after I re-installed it, and I believe before I field stripped it also. Figured that was just the nature of the beast. Is that normal on the CZ's??
Verndog said:
Yeah ... I'd say a CZ75 did that ..... although it'll still do that WAY beyond 25 feet !!
The recoil spring is supposed to be like that.
That thing will blow away 99% of the 9MM guns on the planet. There's no comparison to most other 9MM's.
