CZ firearms are addictive… can’t stop acquiring them.

I know the feeling

[@magiccarpetrider4594]

Got 3

I know brother, first it was the walther's, then it was the sig sauer's and now CZ's. Now the collection has grown from 3 pistols and a single revolver to 45 pistols and 3 revolvers lmao

[@toynazi]

I got a P10c as an impulse buy a few years ago. Now I'm hooked and have five cz's. Right out the box I shot the 10c better than pistol I've ever owned and I've tried most brands. I traded and sold all my glocks to get more cz.

[@freedomlineman3105]

That’s exactly what happened to me… hahaha. P 10 C led to a P10F, P10S, P07, SP01, and a scorpion micro.

Not getting rid of my glocks for aftermarket reasons. But my p10 c sure is the best shooter I got Don’t know if it’s the sights or what but I can hit an 10 inch plate at 75yrds and it seems to be the only pistol I can do it with. Even pistols with red dots

Thanks, Dan. It's no secret formula. Czech guns have delivered high quality at reasonable prices for going on 100 years. That's always a winning combination. Had it not been for 45 years of communist control of (at the time) Czechoslovakia, they would have been popular here much sooner! And it isn't just handguns. I have 2 BRNOs, an O/U 12 ga. shotgun and an O/U double rifle, and an Opava Ferdinand 16 ga. side x side that are beautifully made and cost a small fraction of equal quality English, German or Italian guns. My wife uses a CZ 457 with the "At One" stock and it is incredibly accurate. The Czechs even have their own "John Browning" of sorts...the Holek brothers. Designers of dozens and dozens of quality firearms, including 2 of the guns I own and the ZB vz. 26 light machine gun, adopted by Britain as the "Bren" gun and used up until the 1970s (modified to take 7.62 NATO) You will find great guns with the names "Praha", "Praga" (both for Prague), Brno, Opava, Skoda, CZ and others. Most have been consolidated under the "CZ" name now. And...FWIW, Czechia and Slovokia are delightful countries to visit! Extremely friendly people, most speak fluent English (at least in cities), much lower costs than western Europe and they LOVE their guns. Get there soon. Sleep when you get home!

[@TheFirearmGuy]

[@TheExplosiveGuy]

Same here, a P10F and SP-01 Competition, I love both of them. I'm looking at a TSO already, I got the SP-01 only a couple months ago, it's like CZ laces the grips of their guns with crack cocaine that wears off after a while🤣.

I've been telling people that CZ's are phenomenal guns and rifles 💪 💪 💪

[@TheFirearmGuy]

No doubt Dan

[@iowa_lot_to_travel9471]

The Turkish made cz shotguns are also nice shooters!!!!

[@STF34]

My little brother has a CZ Shadow 2 and it’s so amazing, I love shooting it! I just got a CZ Scorpion EVO 3 S1 less than a week ago. I’m finishing customizing it then will finally get it out to the range! I couldn’t agree more, absolutely love CZ!

"There are two kinds of gun owners in the world. Those who own CZ's, and those who've never heard of them."

[@dustydean56]

I have CZ75D Compact, and what impresses me most is the lack of felt recoil, which allows me to stay on target better and be more accurate. Outstanding performance, I can't say enough good things about it.

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Great to hear Dusty

[@WildWing-wl7nj]

Best pistol series, in my opinion. All you had to do was own and shoot an original CZ-75 from the 70s and early 80s to know that variants to come would be good. Liked!

[@cuddzilla]

I bought a Shadow 2 as my first CZ. Now, we're 8 pistols deep plus a 457 MTR Varmint and a Scorpion EVO 3....and the hits just keep on comin!

[@TheFirearmGuy]

Definitely addictive

[@angelovalavanis2314]

Went to the range a few years ago and rented a CZ 75 and fell in lust with it, now I own a P10C, P07, and soon to be looking for a PCR and Rami. The best manufacturer out there.

CZ makes great guns, and I own 11 of them, including two mid 1980s CZ75 models with the rounded trigger guard. I've also had great luck with the Tristar CZ clone pistols made by Canik. It's a shame that those are no longer being sold.

[@Lee-rq1ek]

CZ PCR here...excellent handguns !

[@carolwilson5348]

I'd really like a steel framed "B" model, (no rail) with the slide from the Phantom, and the grips fastened like the RAMI because I love wood grips and the single screw on a "B" tends to let my wood grips move around.

[@vent51177]

No mention of my personal favorites. The alloy compcat models. (P01, P01 Omega, and the PCR). They have the strength and elegance of a metal frame but still as light as most polymer guns of the same size.

Agreed. Your seven points are well-thought, reasonable, and correct. CZs are top quality, long lasting, comfortable to use, accurate, and good look'n. Also, since WWII Americans have been very interested in the Czech Republic, which play into gun folk's love for CZ. My favorite CZ shoot is the 97B (without the de-cocker). Great review, Ty.

CZ does make quality guns with great ergonomics. I'm still waiting for the DWX - a CZ with a 1911-style fire control group. CZ teased us at shot show 2020, and the DWX full size and compact are on the CZ/Dan Wesson website, but I understand that they now won't be released until late first quarter 2022.

Yes, I fell in love with that at Shot. Covid put the DWX on the back burner

[@robertnotni3668]

Great video. Got rid of just about every handgun I owned and concentrated on CZ. Up to 11 handguns and 1 CZ 457 in .22lr.

[@Nearsightedfarseer]

The 97B is one of the most attractive pistols made. Seriously thinking about the Bren II in 7.63x39. My mom edc's a P10S and has a P10F in fde. As much as I love my Glock 21, it may get replaced by the P10F in .45 lol.

[@zmanphx]

When I see a full size CZ I think of the Bren Ten which copied the grip angle and contours. Bren Ten known for Miami Vice uses in 2 seasons for Don Johnson character main carry.

I have a CZ P10f in 45 acp, they also make it in 9mm but the 45 caught my eye. Just hit the states earlier this year. I do believe it is a import, been a bit tuff to find holsters and extra mags, I did manage to get the 9mm p10f holster to work with some added spacers but there's no click when its fully installed. But i believe the 9mm is made here in the USA and has tridium, mine has luminescent which I kinda like they are bright as hell when you charge them with a flashlight, if I leave it out they get charged automatically by indoor lighting, also have a baldr pro with a custom IWB holster man talk about a giant rig, winter setups are great! Love the trigger as well.

[@marcross52-95]

In my opinion they aren't advertising themselves heavily as the "military and tactical" or "traditional heritage company" unlike other companies that overcompensate but QC problems show. Their sport shooting prescence and iconic styling and innovation of their CZ-75 series, as well as their manual loading rifles and shotguns ready solidified them putting out well-built quality products, aesthetic-wise and function wise.

Great ergonomics, excellent build quality, high capacity, reliability of internal design, reasonable price and less weight transfer on recoil moving above the bore axis which reduces muzzle flip and makes the gun shoot smoothly. I really can’t see many downsides here.

What a great video! Your collection of CZs is impressive. I recently purchased my first CZ; you're 100% right, I love the feel of it in my hand more than any other pistol I own. (I'm currently shopping for another.) I noticed the mag extension on the P-10 S. What brand is it? It has the same texturing as the front of the gun's grip...found that interesting. Hyve has mag extensions for the S, but there's a gap when seated... Really enjoy your channel :-) Merry Christmas and happy New Year!
