I purchased mine from...
I purchased mine from Bud's a couple of years ago so I can speak from experience. I have not put an enormous number of rounds through it but I do load my own and can certainly attest to the strength of this pistol. I have exceeded the recommended load specs on a couple of loads and have not experienced any issues. These were loads that would not have gone well in a "plastic pocket" model. I do have to somewhat agree with the gentleman about the trigger. It may take some getting use to but that's doable. But, having 3 Makarov's with the similar trigger I just take it in stride. I personally truly enjoy the gun and consider it a super buy in it's price range. Very dependable and never a malfunction of any kind. Takedown couldn't be any easier and it conceals quite well. I prefer to carry it in a S.O.B. holster but that's my own preference.

The good: Not a single...
The good: Not a single FTF or FTE. Quite accurate if you can master the trigger (see below). Takedown and reassembly are easy. The bad: The trigger is as bad as it gets - long and mushy pull with no distinct break - and that's single action. Coating is flaking off the underside of the barrel. Slide to frame fit is marginal and it doesn't appear that the contact surfaces were machined at all - very rough. Overall, I don't recommend this pistol.

Excellent firearm,...
Excellent firearm, looks and feels good right out of the box. Good grouping from the first 50 rounds fired. No jams or other mishaps. You can count on CZ for quality, this is my second CZ handgun. The breakdown for cleaning is very easy. I've done my homework and for the price, you can't beat a better quality .380 ACP handgun. My third CZ will be the 40 caliber in satin nickel when available.
