I just got my FID and permit which took about a month to get. I've decided to go with CZ 75B in matte stainless steel but willing to go with black if i wont be able to find in SS. This will be my first gun ever. Now onto finding my gun. Can I get any recommendations where to look or how to find one? I've found couple online stores but its on backorder everywhere.

 

Thanks in advance

Andy

I would start with trying the price request feature here on the forum. You will get some replies and probably won't be able to beat the price.

I already sent a price request yesterday and only got one response back.

Nice choice. I would love to have one of these, too. This is a hard gun to find, but an awesome one. You may want to look on Gunbroker. In particular, the limited one with night sights would be an awesome find. You may have a problem with finding one with only 15-round magazines. I think I like the brushed stainless more than the bright stainless.

Like I said, it's a good place to start. I noticed if they can't get one, most times they don't respond. I know the prices aren't the best but, give Heritage Guild in Branchburg or Rahway a call, as well as Caso's in Jersey City.

The mags are the problem . From what i was told they only ship with 17 rounders then the ffl has to send the 17 back for 15 rounds

Just saw a CZ 75 , not sure which model , maybe the compact at Heritage Guild in Branchburg on 22 East,

You re close so go over and see what they can do for you.

 

 

 

I bought mine from CZ Customs but their stock is all back ordered till I believe December.Angus will swap out for 15 round mags at purchase but if you have no luck soon I would reserve one before his stock is all spoken for.

15 round mags are readily available at CZ USA and they have sales frequently, also CDNN Sports has 15 round CZ's original mags in stock for $24.99/each or Meggar 14 round mags for $19.99/each.

 

Good luck and you'll find it hard to find a better first gun.

You may want to take a look at the CZ-75SP01. This is a little different gun but I think it offers you a little more for about the same price. I have a 75b that I bought when I couldn't find an SP01 last year, now it seems the SP01's are around and the 75b's are tough to find. The 75b's only come as a 16+1 or 10+1, I have never even seen a 17 round mag for them. I have 15 rd and 10 rd mags. Mecgar makes 15 round mags for fairly cheap. When my permits come in I will be looking to add an SP01 to my safe. Also I think USPSA now accepts the SP01 in the production division.

Best prices I've been able to find. And if you use Vinny as a FFL, your transfer fees will be the cheapest I've found in NJ.

Check Heritage. If they have it in their PA store, they will ship it to the NJ store and swap out the mags for you. No charge for the shipping nor mag swap.

Thank you for your suggestions. I will be visiting couple shops in NJ over the weekend.

Thanks

Guns and Ammo in Hackettstown had a CZ 75B glossy stainless in its shop. However, you would have to get 15-round magazines.

What does Vinny charge and where is he? I use Lincoln Park True Value Hardware myself, although my last purchase was from Mike's in Fairview, NJ and I didn't have to pay transfer fees.

I never heard of Mikes, and I live so close to it. I'm trying to find the cheapest place near me in terms of transfer fees. (Bergen County)

Mike's Gun Shop on on Fairview Ave. http://www.jerseypolicesupply.com/Firearms.asp

 

Since I purchased from his inventory there was no transfer fee.

Yeah that's typical... why would they charge you a transfer fee for a gun in their store - that's not a transfer...

 

 

I also would like to know how much Vinny charges.

I was looking for a Glock 20 and Mike's participates in the GSSF program and had one in stock.

Is it possible to alter or pin the magazine?

Why bother?

I saw a 85 Combat at their PA Store a while ago and had I not already picked up a low priced used 75B, I would have jumped on that.

+1 for the CDNN mags, no need to look for anything else. Mine came with a CA 10rd so these were great.

 

I'm just gonna leave these here...
