After doing much research and reading rave reviews about the CZ 75 B, I made the decision to buy one. I decided on the satin nickel model. After searching for 3 months, Bud's notified me that they had received a limited number of these, so I placed my order. The gun arrived in perfect condition and oh what a beauty. I put it thru an initial cleaning and headed to the range. The CZ 75B shot as good as it looked. No problems whatsoever. However, when I got home from the range and broke it down to clean it, I noticed sone of the nickel finish was flaking off the inside of the slide and dust cover after only 75 rounds. I called CZ and they said this was not unusual and that they would repair it. I sent it back to CZ and received the gun back in about 2 1/2 weeks. They had smoothed down the problem areas and said I should not expect any more issues. Even though CZ had great customer service I would not recommend a satin nickel finish. (customer service told me they were going to discontinue it). I wish I had spent the extra money and gotten the matte stainless model or just stuck with glossy black. I would still highly recommend the 75B. It is truly a real steel gun and a treat to shoot. 5 stars all the way except for the issue with nickel finish. As for the nickel model I will have to rate a 4.

Purchased one of these mid-February in what was apparently a momentary inventory availability flash. Within hours, inventory was gone again. Service from Bud's was exceptional; will do business here again. This handgun is a beauty. The satin nickel finish is very nice looking without being too 'out there'. It shows well and cleans very well. I took it to a local indoor range not knowing what to expect as I had never fired one of these CZ models nor even handled one. The grip and weapon balance is great. The accuracy out of the box was amazing. I just couldn't miss and I'm not talking just about paper, but 8, 9 and 10s. I am not a recently experienced shooter, but qualified regularly while on active duty in the Army. Many reviewers indicate the trigger pull improves after a few hundred rounds...I look forward to whatever improvement that will be...I hope I notice. Because I have fired the Beretta while in the Army, I started looking there, but stumbled into the exceptional ratings given to the CZ 75B line. Took a chance on the unknown and have no regrets. This is a nice handgun and comes at a great price, if you can find the inventory.

So, what recommendations would I make? I am replacing the stock plastic grips with the CZ rubberr grips. I think the added texture and feel will complement the feel of the gun overall. I have since held other handguns where the sights are easier to see (bright red-orange) vice small white dots. But, honestly, I can't remember what I was seeing at the range in my sight picture, but the shooting accuracy was exceptional. As the sight picture was effective, I might think about applying a dot of flourescent glow orange or green at a latter date for enhancement....have to think on this a bit more before I get serious.

Shooting this handgun was fun. Accuracy was exceptional. The build and fit quality is great. CZ's reputation for durability is strong. The decision to buy was on the mark. I would recommend you strongly consider the CZ 75B line if you are in the market for a solid 9mm. I did not find the full size overly heavy or large...would be interesting to fire the same model, but in the compact size. Who knows?...perhaps another purchase in the future.
