CZ 75 BD Initial Look

[@kylewood8327]

CZ’s are bad ass...I picked up the 75b Omega and have it setup as a decocker. It’s a great addition to my 75d PCR!

[@craigharding6443]

Thanks for showing it. This model is exactly the one I'm looking for myself, the CZ75-BD. Like you, I prefer a decocking lever, though I often carry a 1911 in Condition 1. I never have worried about weapons made in Czechoslovakia. When you look over the history of arms made in Europe for the past several hundred years, you'll notice Czechoslovakia has been an icon for quality from handguns to tanks. It was one of the big reasons Hitler wanted to occupy that country. Back in the day, my favorite military bolt action to use to make a sporter rifle from was a Czech small ring Mauser action. There were none better.

[@dylanvazquez9374]

Craig Harding did not know that. Thank you for that tidbit of knowledge!

[@richardkluesek4301]

According to WB Smith "Small Arms of the World" 11 German divisions in 1940 were equipped with Czech arms and vehicles to invade France. Kharma is harsh, the double cross at Munich 1938 was avenged that there were those additional invaders enabled with those weapons against the Allies.

[@gshock3092]

I will say this gun is by far my favorite hand gun out of all the service pistols I have had!

[@ronaldweiss6044]

Great review. I bought the same model a couple years ago and love it. I put some VZ grips on it (black cherry frag pattern). They are made of G10 and are slimmer, which helps with my small hands.

[@colt10mmsecurity68]

LOOOVE this gun!!!! Out of all the CZ’s the 75 BD is their very best in my opinion! But two clarifications need to be made in this video…. The CZ 75 is only the most copied gun because there never was a patent placed on the gun back in 1975 with the western “free” world. It was a mistake that the Soviet Union completely blundered on. Second point is that the CZ 75 is NOT the #1 firearm for world police departments. That honor goes to the Glock 19 and Glock 17. Been that way for nearly 20 years now.

[@ypres1917]

Nice review! I picked up a CZ 75DB about 6 months ago and it is a fantastic handgun. I've put 1150 rounds through it with zero malfunctions. The fit and feel in the hand is second to none and I it's great for shooting at the range. I shoot more accurately with this gun than with my Sig P226, my Glock 17 (gen 2), or my Beretta 92FS. And, frankly, it is more fun to shoot than any of them. There was initially a bit of grit on the SA pull but after about 200 rounds it became exceptionally smooth with just a bit of trigger creep. I much prefer the decocker over the safety of the "B".

[@Hilander1298]

zap 427 ROTFLMAO. You are one pathetic fuck. Move on loser. LOL.

[@nicholaspetre1]

Hi! I was a exactly looking for a person like you - the owner of CZ, Sig and Beretta. Need your advice. I am thinking of buying either CZ75ВD or Sig P226 or Beretta 92. Favoring CZ because of the price. But regardless of the cost which of these three handguns would you recommend as a first gun?! It is for home defense and shooting range shooting. I am not going to carry it concealed. Just want to get know shooting and how to deal with gun, so need to start with some decent comfortable and reliable device. Thank so much in advance. Good luck

I've had one for a few years...great gun!

[@sfromla6152]

[@gonzisonsbc]

Great video. I love these pistols. The "BD" would be my choice too.

[@MlLKMAN]

Great video, thank you for posting. I recently picked up an Israeli BD Police surplus, it has textured front and back straps and a heavy hammer in addition to the features your gun has. Interesting how the civilian market guns don't have the year of production stamp by the extractor.

[@WaltD1911]

Cool gun! On the list as well, nice review like the decocker too!

[@cmonsterz]

Congratz on picking this up! I bought the polished steel version earlier in the year. I swapped the grips out for some VZ Cocobolo grips (GREAT stuff). I had a black one years ago and sold it (shouldn't have!). It shot beautifully. My new one is great like that as well...just a lot prettier.

[@Hilander1298]

cmonsterz Lol. We all have done it. Sell em. Rebuy em. Thanks.

[@mbn4975]

Is cz 75 BD drop free magazine without having to pull out the magazine? does it drop freely after you press the magazine release button or you have to pull it out the magazine with your hand ?

[@ChaohsiangChen]

Mine drops mags free.

[@motorradmike]

There is a flat spring blade in the magazine well protecting the hammer spring which the magazine rides on. Take the grips off and simply remove the spring blade and flatten it if you must have your magazine fully drop by themselves.

[@TheGoodChap]

cz-usa kansas city, kansas right down the street from me. Thought the one I saw at my gun shop was special, didn't realize every cz 75 in the us is imported here.

[@codedecode878]

what's the difference between the CZ-75 BD and the CZ-75 BD Police model?

[@Taprack13]

codedecode The police model has checkered (hardly) grip, serrated trigger, loaded chamber indicator and of Course says police on it.

[@nicholaspetre1]

If you type cz 75 in wikipidea and go all the way down, they describe there all models of this gun and describe theier features. Try it

[@DeathBecomesHerDeathBecomesHer]

Thanks for the video. It helped me make my decision.

[@milanbelovukovic8252]

Best 9mm double action pistol ever! CZ 75 BD.

[@deadheart556]

I know this is a bit late but where do you live that you picked that up for $525? CZs start around $500 at all the shops near me in PA and the 75BD starts at $800. Are you buying used?

[@Hilander1298]

MrBrock19w No that is new. Bought here in Cheyenne Wy.

[@DJGuppy321]

MrBrock19w That sucks... MSRP for the 75bd is $612

[@acegunner7025]

MrBrock19w right now you can get a good price on this firearm at J&G . I just got one was looking threw the tubevids why i wait for it . it is not new but in very good conditon for 350$

[@gojolumo]

I bought mine for 600 but then again I live in California. The hand gun roster got people buying all the pistols they can buy before they're off the list and can longer buy them.

[@martinitime1975]

I just got a CZ75-P01, the new compact model and LOVE it. Best feeling handgun I own, but the trigger isn't great. Lots of creep and kinda hitchy in places. I'll have a review up soon.

[@Y4NK33F0X]

I’m puzzled as to why people have such a negative view on Czech weapons. If you follow history, the Czechs having been making some of the highest quality and innovative designs, since WWI. For instance, the Bren gun is of Czech design.

[@chaboi7]

I really want a cajunized arsenal of cz guns......little by little my friend

[@Aurelius556]

I'm glad you're not naive anymore regarding Czech firearms :) Look up their history.

[@MarekCorba]

I started with shooting competitions last year and 75 BD is most comfortable 9mm pistol for long range (25m) to me. Tried glocks, berettas, other CZs, PPQ, etc.. But farly best results I got with this badass. Recommending.

[@luvmyotis]

[@arcticgummibear]

Dude..no body cares about the camera..just talk about the CZ....thanks bro. I bought one of these and sold it (had to), but it is an awesome gun. Built like an abrams tank. No plastic gun here, folks.

[@mamoonrasheed3378]

Most beautiful gun 😍

[@henrydiaz3212]

why do you prefer the decocker instead of cocked and locked...

[@Hilander1298]

It is personal preference. I prefer the harder first trigger pull over the possibility of the safety lever getting moved to the fire position accidentally and having a very light trigger pull.

[@henrydiaz3212]

+Albee4ty5 I see what you mean....that makes sense thanks

[@deanbriscoe8722]

Plus lots of cops have shot themselves in the legs with short triggers. People might scoff at that and think, "HA!--stupid cops! That'll never happen to me!!" until they get punched in the face, and it fucking happens to them as they try deploying their handgun in self-defense.

[@OilTheGun]

Great value gun!

[@77killerbrian]

I have the CZ 75 SP-01, CZ 97B and the CZ P07 and not one has let me down. I'm dam sure that not a weapon your going to sell or trade.

[@deanbriscoe8722]

I guess I have slightly larger than average size hands. With medical exam gloves, the large ones fit me best, but they're still a little loose on me. The mediums are a bit too tight. I guess one way of finding out if this will fit me well would be to hold a Glock 19, since they're very close in size. No gun stores near me have CZ's. :/

[@bobg1685]

I have the CZ PCR, and it was my winter-wear CCW, but I replaced it. I like the CZ decockers, but peeps who get one have to really, really, really train in it's firing if they use it for home defense because of the dramatic change in trigger pull between the initial decocked DA pull to the second round in SA. It's a tremendous thing to get used to. No other of my handguns present this issue as they are all either striker-fired semis or revolvers.

[@kimleith1378]

Any tips on dry fire training to overcome the DA to SA difference?

[@bobg1685]

@Kim Leith: no tips, really. It's more of a development of muscle memory, I suppose. The decocked trigger pull is long and hard (heh-heh) but after that first round the slide cocks the hammer and you can't stage the trigger like you did at first. Trigger pull #2 is now like any other s/a handgun at around three pounds (vs 8-10 lbs for the first pull.) This is just something you have to get used to. It's not a big deal if you're doing adrenalized fire in defense of your life, but I found the differences in trigger pull can catch you off guard. My CZ is now a well-oiled safe queen.

[@kimleith1378]

@@bobg1685 Been dry firing with a snap cap and a rubber stopper to protect the firing pin.

[@bobg1685]

@Kim: I don't think dry firing is necessarily helpful much. Sure, it's good to dry fire with snap caps to work on your trigger control, but a gun like this doesn't really benefit much in the way a revolver does. You and the gun will benefit from live fire. Get 50 rounds, spend them on targets, clean it and you'll be good.

[@sycamorebacker1]

I agree with you 120% about the "cocked and locked." A grip safety makes it ok with the 1911. I don't see how it is safe enough for a gun without a grip safety. It's not just in your head. It is a fact. Also, people tend to make it sound like you can't carry the safety model in DA. The DA/SA action is exactly like the decocker model.

[@agricola]

The 75 is a great gun but CZ likes to engage in "creative marketing" The five most widely issued (by number of countries issuing them) military/police service pistols are: 1. FN hipower (82 countries) 2. Glock 17/19 (62 countries) 3. Beretta 92 (46 countries) 4. Sig p226 (33 countries) 5. Beretta px4 (32 countries) The cz75 is issued in maybe a half dozen countries currently.
