CZ handguns

CZ 97B would be my choice

CZ 97B Description:


The CZ 97B is a semi-automatic handgun introduced in 1997 in the .45 ACP caliber. The CZ 97B is essentially the CZ 75B in .45 ACP rather than 9mm, leading many gun enthusiasts to call the 97B the "big brother" to the very popular CZ 75B.

Love CZ handguns. I've got three of them and I even have the oddball 40B model. Great guns to have and shoot.

For the CZ, are they all the same single action cocked and locked style like the 1911?

No....the newer P10 series (P10F, P10C, and P10S....for full, compact, and subcompact) are striker-fired like Glocks, HK VP9, Walther PPQ, S&W M&P, etc.

General rave reviews for all.

There’s a long menu list of CZ handguns....you need to set aside a weekend and read....and determine your needs/wants. They’re all different barrel lengths, calibers, triggers, grips, frames, looks.

YouTube and Google are your friends

I've sold dozens and dozens of guns over the years and the only one I truly regret selling is the CZ 97. It will be my next handgun purchase. I preferred it over my 1911's but didn't sell my 1911's due to the fact that they're badass too and were twice the cost.
I have a cajunized SP-01 and a cajunized PCR, both incredible guns. Good luck!

I've heard a lot of good things about the P10C. Are they on roster? I'm thinking not..

No....the newer P10 series (P10F, P10C, and P10S....for full, compact, and subcompact) are striker-fired like Glocks, HK VP9, Walther PPQ, S&W M&P, etc.

Are the better than or comparable to say a 1911 or Browning?

1911 or Browning Hi Power are
single action only guns.

CZ has SA/DA models with
decocker.

From shooting range side of
view it does not matter.

From self defense scenario IMO,
SA/DA with decocker is preferred
unless you are willing to practice SAO
engagement regularly. Once I holstered 1911
and imagined self defense situation.
My first draw hypotetically resulted
in shooting myself in the leg, second
time I was careful enough not to
disengage safety too soon, which
resulted in pointing the gun and pulling
the trigger on a gun with safety on.
That was worse than shooting oneself
in the leg I guess...

SA/DA with decocker does not require
such training. When you are at the
range just make sure to decock
every time you load a magazine and
practice first shoot long trigger pool.

Now, 1911 is a beautiful gun that
everyone should have. HiPower is
nice but not as historical for US. CZ
was developed with HiPower in mind.
So they are similarly looking with CZ
being more practical.

My solution to your question was -
get 1911 for range/eye toying. Get
CZ with it being almost HiPower
clone with modern features.

My favorite striker fired gun is my p10f...very ergonomics
Better than any of my glocks, ppq or vp9

I can't wait to get a hold of the new Dan Wesson DWx

My EDC is a P-01 with thin grips. I have a slightly modded magazine so it's 16+1 capacity in a reliable, compact and accurate package.

I live down the street from CZ Custom so eventually I'll some work done on the sights but bone stock after 1000 rounds down the pipe it's darn perfect for my purposes.

I love my 97B, as well as my SP-01 FDE (I think it has been discontinued?).
From top to bottom:
CZ-97B (45ACP)
CZ-75B (40S&W)
SP-01 FDE (9x19)
CZ-75B (9x19)
CZ-75B CWE (9x19)
CZ-75B Kadet II (22LR)





My SP-01 is my softest shooting 9mm (used it for my Arizona CCW qualifier), my 75B is my range/hiking/OC gun, and my 97B is my favorite handgun to shoot.

For anyone thinking about acquiring a 97B, I will say to go ahead and get it, you will not be disappointed! The gun is larger than a 75B but it is very comfortable to shoot ( I have the non-California model that comes standard with aluminum grips and I HIGHLY recommend them!).

I've had 4. They are all gone, but for 1. At one time, I had a P-01 and a CZ75BD. Both were excellent shooters, but they went bye-bye only because I had another purchase in mind. No other reason. I then bought a P-10C once I moved out of CA. I also bought a P-07. It was a great opportunity for a comparison between plastic striker and hammer fired pistols from the same excellent manufacturer. For whatever reason, I shot the P-07 ever-so-slightly better than the new P-10C. The P-10 really didn't bring anything to the table over the P-07, so the P-10 also went bye-bye. It too, was a very good pistol. I really don't think one can go wrong with any current CZ pistol.
EDIT: Now if CZ would just go ahead and build a 10mm on the CZ-97 frame...…..be still my heart!

I have yet to try out the polymer CZs (I get my polymer fix from my four Glocks and my HK, lol).

A 10mm CZ in the 97B size would be just dandy!

My CZ Rami D sometimes pulls shop duty:





Smooth, great trigger, soft shooting and accurate.

I know what you mean! I couldn't wait and got the next best thing, a Tanfoglio!

I have an SP-01 and a P-01 and they both deliver better accuracy than my Walther P88c.

Don't get me wrong: I love that Walther (c'mon, it's a Walther!) but when it comes to the CZ ... oh yes indeed. It feels like I'm cheating on a fifty year old woman with an eighteen year old girl.
