Still is, its the pistol you will see on the range here the most. Some good slow motion of the original CZ 75 in action. First Model CZ 75 - YouTube

Thanks for those great vids. Cz handguns now do get indeed the appreciation they rightly deserve, also meaning the older Mdls do become highly though after. That 1st Mdl short slide is a serious rare (and very expensive) piece now. I have been on the look out for a decent early pre B within my budget for a quite a while . Fat chance & prices keep rising fast, on par, if not stepper than the "WW Iconing Classics" (1911, P08 etc ) . I fear long slide it will have to be :bad:

Thanks Ordonance .
I think so Delboy. They used to make a Cz75 Compact before it has been replaced by the alu frame PCR ? I think the only compact metal one now is the P01 but aloy frame .

Being a lefty, I shoot the CZ85B when in the US due to the ambi controls.

From the pics posted in the evening Standard there was also HP in that stach seized at Calais ;)

As far as I know Delboy : Compact + Steel frame + decocker . It looked like a classic B but chopped off but I don't think it is produced anymore. Cz seems to be steaming ahead with polymer frame for their compact Mdls. The only metal Mdl is now the P01 Omega which gives you the option to fit either a manual safety or a decocker.

Steel guns are still produced and marketed by CZ-USA, I believe...
