Btw: The Island they are filming it on is called "Střelecký ostrov" - meaning "Shooters island" and was used by Prague shooters club from 1600s - the club members even stopped Swedish amphibious invasion in 1640s during the siege of Prague in Thirty Years' War.

The Czech firearm history goes "a bit" further than that. Handheld firearms were used since the beginning of 15th century and heavily utilized in Hussite wars - probably the largest utilization of small firearms on European battlefields at the time. The gun used back then was called "píšťala", which translates as whistle. The word eventually spread into other languages and served as a base for contemporary word "pistol".

[@kutter_ttl6786]

Ian did qualify his choices in stating he was talking about weapons developed when it became a republic over 100 years ago.

I was stationed in Germany from 1984-1987 and I bought a new genuine CZ-75 from the Rod & Gun Club for about $175 When I got back to the states, I took it to a gun show in Fort Worth, looking for a holster for it, and nearly every dealer was salivating. I had a dozen offers of over $700 for it, and eventually one offered $850 and I sold it to him. At the time, I was amazed, and had no idea that they were simply impossible to get here in the states. At the time though, that $850 was a ton of money and I thought they were all crazy. (My issue gun was a 1911 (air defense Redeye and Stinger gunner) and they had started distributing the Baretta 9mm shortly before I rotated back, so I had no love affair with the CZ. - It shot good and was reliable, but no way I thought it was worth what I got for it.) Of course, looking back, it is one of the few guns I wish I had held on to. Another that slipped away was the Dan Wesson Pistol Pack with all 4 barrels in an attaché case that I brought back.

The bore was shot out, and the stock is so beat up, that I’m convinced it had to have been issued during WWII and was probably used to beat someone to death on the Eastern Front.

Talking about history of firearms and Czechia, it's worth mentioning that English (and a bunch of other languages) derived the words "pistol" and "howitzer" from the Czech "píšťala" (flute) and houfnice (a gun for firing against crowds (crowd is houf in Czech)), both originally used during the Hussite wars of 15th century.

[@Ic3m4n1047]

A really cool thing about Czech Republic that a lot of people don't realize is that it's pretty much the only place in the EU, along with Slovakia to a lesser extent, where you can conceal carry and easily obtain a licence as a regular civilian. Also unlimited size mags and JHPs. Pretty sure everywhere else in the EU it's basically impossible to carry.

[@TheBigOne0305]

Poland has concealed carry. Austria has self-defense as a recognized need for gun ownership, however that does not include concealed carry, only home defense.

[@josefvarilek6712]

The most important aspect of that legislation is, that if you fulfill the requirements given by law (clean crime record (including drunk driving etc), passed medical exams and passed gun exams (theoretical test, gun manipulation test and shooting test), getting the permission is guaranteed. There is no option for a clerk to say "No". Also, there is no reason or use case needed.

[@trioptimum9027]

They're drinking different wines. White wine is often served cold, and even where it's not you don't want it to get warm, so you hold the glass by the base or the stem so your hot lil' hands don't warm it up. I tend to think this is rather silly if you're at a dinner party or something, but for a situation like this where you're doing more 'standing around holding wine' and less 'picking up the glass just long enough for a sip,' it does likely make a difference.

And adding to that, relevant to the topic of the video, there was a long history of firearms production in the area before the creation of independent Czechoslovakia. For example, I expect that people who know firearms history heard the name Krnka. And of course it goes even further back than that. It's no accident that the words "pistol" and "howitzer" have Czech origins (from the 15th century).

Why do you think they love American culture? Because they have McDonald’s?

[@kingbaldwiniv5409]

@@Johnsormani, no, because I have spent time there and paid attention to their music and literature scene. My family is from all over that area.

[@Kamamura2]

@@Johnsormani Because he is an American. American culture has many traits of narcissistic psychopathy - being in awe on oneself, worshiping power and violence, low/absent capability for empathy.

I always love these collaboration videos

[@Saltpork305]

I wouldn't put these in the top 5 but the vz61 and cz83 are both unique and interesting designs in their own right.

[@martinlag3234]

Wonderful collaboration! Excellent video 😃

My 90s-era CZ 75B was terrible. Maybe they were just completely cheaping out on the factory mags, but I couldn't get through a full mag with mine. Was happy to sell it.

My second centerfire pistol was a pre-B CZ75 around 1995-ish. Nowhere near my last CZ, my son is still using it in local competition. Definitely fans of Czech firearms ever since.

The collaboration I didnt know i needed

[@philipvecchio3292]

I was wondering who they were going to replace Sly Stalone and Kurt Russell with in a Tango and Cash remake
