I’ve shot it once. Point blank into the forehead of my daughters sick horse. On Christmas Eve no less. Lol. Crazy story that.

It’s kind of a restyled Hebrew CZ75. All steel, shoots good. Double stack mag too.

Thanks. I'm itching for a cz 75 or clone...

The IWI guns are a cost effective alternative version and good guns. The magazines and cost is something I'd research before buying. You don't want to get into the HK syndrome of $75 mags.

My biggest gripe with the CZ75 (and clones) is the slide and frame are the same width and the slide is not very tall. I try to rack the slide and grab some frame too. Also the DA reach is a little long to me. I had a CZ75B and foolishly sold it.

a good gun deserves a good magazine. Quit being

a grinch. When I started shooting my Auto Mags in the late 70s a factory magazine was $125 back then. Kase and I shot the Bren Ten pistols and mags for them were over $100 in the late 80s. I shoot original Colt ACE magazines in my custom Peters Stahl pistol and they were $75 20 years ago. My Star PD factory mags were in the $50 range in the late 80s. Don't make the mistake of scrimping and buying junk mags like the Triple K mags and expect your gun to function flawlessly. If you want a good auto, forgot the price and buy a good factory magazine or two and like John Taffin always says a couple of months from now you will never miss the money but your pistol will be functioning the way it was meant to.

I ment there are many variations, availability

might be a problem so check that out before you buy.

Just look into what works with one you are looking at, what interchanges etc.
