Is there a stainless CZ 9mm with decocker?

[jlist]

I know there is a stainless CZ 75B which has manual safety. I prefer one with a decocker. I don't think 75BD is offered in stainless. I wonder if there are stainless compact and subcompact versions with a decocker?

Have you checked the CZ-USA web-site first or would you prefer that one of us do that for you?

Haven't seen one.

CZ website only lists 2 full size stainless both with safety. Just wanted to make sure I'm not missing anything, and that there isn't a stainless model that later got discontinued and pulled from the web site

If you really want a stainless one with a decocker, how about just getting a 75BD and cerakoting it stainless?

Even if you found one, it won't be on the roster unless PPT, so......

^^ This would be your only option OP. As far as i know CZ dose not make a stainless decocker.

Thanks for the suggestion! I should definitely look into this option. Maybe a P-01 or a 2075 RAMI BD. Will cerakoting affect a pistol's reliability in any way? Other than changing the color, does it have any other effects on the gun/parts? My understanding is that once cerakoted I won't get the original color back. The only option is to cerakote it with a new color. Is this understanding correct?

Also, for the matte finish, is bead blasting a better option?

Does anyone have any recommendations for shops in the SF Bay Area that offers cerakoting and/or bead blasting service?

Cerakote or NP3 it. Definitely more pricey than cerakote, but a very strong coating and smooths out slide action/cycling in general

To address your questions (at least ones that I have experience with)

1). Cerakoting hasn't affected the reliability of my CZs(not sure about other pistols). I had my match gun a CZ 75 Shadow Custom cerakoted to midnight blue and my back up match gun a SP01 cerakoted to duo tone tungsten/armor black combo. So far, in all my test firing, cerakoting hasn't affected reliability. I tend to run them pretty hard during test fires such as rapid fire strings, controlled pair shooting, 1 reload 1, etc.

2). The only way I can think of that other gun parts would be affected are during disassembly/reassembly process. No, you will not get the original color back. Although, I find cerakoting more durable than the factory finish. The factory finish started scratching after 2 or 3 dry fire practice sessions for me. So far, my cerakote hasn't scratched yet. It's been about 4 dry fire practice sessions for me. I'm using a blade-tech kydex holster.

3). I don't know of any shops in the Bay Area that do cerakoting, but there are options available in Sacramento area. There's a calguns member that does cerakote out of his home. Just search for Sacramento cerakote. He does great work and has very good turnaround time. There's also GKC armory in Sac as well (no experience with them).

@jinn707 thanks for the input. It's very helpful. I'll take notes of the shops.

There is there green P01, that is not seen often. P01, so it should be a CZ decocker version and petty compact. Not rostered of course.

Just ceracoat, CA sucks.
