? on legal technicality re CZ75BD models

[Guest]

the DOJ lists CZ75BD black, but not a CZ75BD Police. My research shows that both guns are technically the same gun, including the black polycoat. The Police model comes with a hi-cap mag.

Assuming an out-of-state seller has a Police model but only has the 10-round mags, and so this Police model has all the same attributes (incl mags) as a CZ75BD, do you think a CA FFL will accept the CZ75BD POLICE as a "CZ75BD"?

I would think not, since the POLICE model probably has a different SKU number, but I guess they don't sell them anymore. Anyway, I don't really know if the CZ75BDPolice has a different SKU or model number compared to the standard CZ75BD. I have read the other thread about, "if it's not on the rostered list, then you simply can't sell it here except for PPT".

Just wanted the more experienced people here to sound off. thanks.

'CZ75BD Police' may refer to a package, not a model. The DOJ certified a gun, not the package - though the gun was certified w/a 10rd mag.

If you call CZ, ask them if the 75BD and '75BD police' are the identical gun. DOJ allows variations as to grips and sights, but material, barrel length, hammer style, etc. must be same as rostered gun.

You'd also have to find an FFL willing to work with you on this.

To really be on the up & up, even if the guns were identical, you'd also have to have a complete gun shipped to you with the 10rd factory mags it was tested with (not aftermarkets).

thanks Bill. it appears that the seller doesn't have the original mags anyway. besides, original mag is hi-cap.

i think it's less headache to stay away from that one. Thanks mate!!!
