I think they are great. The slide design is somewhat unique and makes for a very tight and accurate gun. The ergonomics, for me, are just perfect. They are similar to a Beretta but the grips are much thinner and I can get a much better hold on them. The grips on the Beretta are so wide that I have to shift my strong hand grip to push the mag release button and then shift back. That may be fine at the range, but it ain't so cool for competitive shooting. I think they look cool, and shoot well. I have a Glock, Beretta, S&W revolver, and two expensive 1911's and I just shoot the CZ-75B the best. I liked my stainless one so much that I just picked up a lightly used black one that had lots of work done on it at the CZ custom shop.

Everything he told you is wrong and illegal. Contact NJ2AS.

For minerals and soap you might try CLR, it works fairly well. If it's mineral on tile you could try acid but be careful of acids on metal surfaces.

I partly agree with you on this. Cops should not be treated differently than any other citizen. That said, any citizen (including cops) once they are legally allowed to own one gun should be able to buy as many additional ones as rapidly as they want with no further intrusion by the government. Heck if someone already owns a gun they don't need another one to go kill someone, so why make them jump through all the hoops as it does absolutely nothing to prevent violence or keep people safe.

I would say buyer beware, its like buying from an individual on eBay - there are good people and crooks. I have purchased from there, but only from dealers.

RTSP will do that, they just did it for a CZ-75B I had shipped in that came with 16 round mags.

This is the dumbest question ever. The right question is to pick one or two NJ gun laws that are not dumb.

Got the same letter, but what do I get for the $250 besides a jacket worth $14.95 + S/H

Looks sweet to me, but I might be biased as you can see below:

I have two CZ-75B's as you can see in the little picture below. Both are safety models, which I much prefer over the decocker. I have a Beretta 92FS with a decocker, so I have experience with both. The reason I like the safety better is because I use these guns in IDPA and USPSA competition. To shoot in production or SSP it is trivial to manually decock the gun to be able to start hammer down. What is nice is you can also use the gun in Limited or ESP and use it cocked and locked. Thus, why give yourself fewer options if you don't have to.

I think you mean 11-24-2013

You raise a very good point in that last paragraph. I am far from an expert, but I was at a match where a woman was doing some things wrong and I talked to her husband about it. I did not want to go up and correct someone's wife. But when I told him he asked me to go tell her, as he figured it would have more value coming from someone other than him. Sometimes family just won't listen, but they will when it comes from strangers.

delete - this is a dupe I posted before two threads were combined.

Read the law, there is nothing in it that says you need this - stop listening to lawyers that got their degree on the "Inter-Webs".

I believe the compact uses a small mag, but you can use the larger ones in it - they just stick out further.

I have been using the stock Mec Gar 16 rounders pinned to the people's republic of NJ limit of 15. I have two 10 rounders as well but have not used them yet. The competition sights on the black one are so much easier for me to pick up that the standard three dot on the stainless one.

Used the black one for the IDPA classifier today in Somerset. Since I had squeaked by as Marksman in the last classified in Easton with my Beretta in SSP I shot the CZ cocked in locked in ESP today. Did a full 40 seconds better with it than I had with the Beretta. Love the CZ's!!!!

That's I nice shot of the bright stainless one. Mine are both 9mm. I've got a Glock G22 which is .40 cal, great for HD but not super fun to shoot. These CZ's are both a lot of fun.

The black one has lots of work done on it from the CZ custom shop, including the sights. The grips are VZ grips and are great. While I like the rubber grips on the stainless one the VZ grips are thinner and feel great. I highly recommend the CZ-75B, heck I liked mine so much I got another one. The black one did this for me today at 10 yards and I am not the best shot

They were separated at birth and only recently reunited. Slightly different, so they must be fraternal twins Perhaps they are only cousins

Oh mine is not the currently ugly ass version, I have the original ones that have a trunk not the hatch back - they look like a normal car.

I too used to tool around in my 7-series BMW getting 14 mpg in town, but I got over that too. I enjoy the Pri, and waving at gas pumps as I pass them

I get that mileage on a combined basis. It is fairly constant, but actually is best on long highway trips. We took one of the Pri's to Niagara Falls a year ago and round trip we got 49.x miles per gallon. One of them has 90K and the other 135K and we really have never had to do anything to them. I bought them both when they were three years old. One had 35,000 miles and the other 7,200 miles on it. Check out rebuilt battery units on eBay, you can get them for around $1,000. I don't know of anyone that has ever needed to replace a battery, and I think they are covered by warranty for either 100k or 150k miles. We really have had almost no maintenance on them.

I have nothing against diesel, but your characteristic of hybrids is way off. First I get 45 to 50 mpg with regular unleaded. I also don't have to replace $3,000 batteries, but if I ever needed one I could buy a rebuilt pack for about $1,000. I don't have a transmission to go bad either - that cost you what for a new one, $4,000? I also almost never use brakes as the electric motor in reverse does almost all the breaking. I also don't have a starter motor to go bad, as the car starts on electricity and does not introduce gasoline or a spark until the RPMs are over several hundred. That saves on much wear, as starting a car causes lots of wear when you go from zero RPM with the combustion process. Just saying.....

Cool, not sure about your backstop though
