I've refrained from going down the GB road. Do a lot of auctions end on Sunday evening?

Oh yea. Sunday is a big night.

The last gun I was able to buy ended at like Noon on a Tuesday - something like that.

Haha I thought you did read it and that's why you said that. I had already sent you a pm before this post.

I should have been more clear in my original post about the blue, as the Masada is technically blue, (very dark blue almost black) but I have no intention of getting rid of it, I feel like it's a treasure. Some were wondering if it was that, but no - and you all will be the first to know if that ever has to happen.

Anyway, have a neighbor that shoots some competitions that expressed interest in the competition blue. If he doesn't take it, it can be yours.

I had 8 pages to catch up on today. I was just responding as I went! I couldn’t believe it when I read on!

I like the Witness Elite Match I got. But a part of me has been second guessing it. I’ve been thinking a 2nd CZ with mag and caliber compatibility would have been a wiser decision. That blue SP-01 definitely caught my attention.

Phantom’s are getting expensive from what I hear.

We'll find out in a few days. I might be one of the crazies but I hope not.

How expensive? I found a decent one a couple month ago for $750, I’ve been kicking myself for not getting it ever since…

A quick search of GB sales shows nine sales from $555 to $760 BEFORE fees, tax and transfer.

Very cool...I have been sorta looking for Gen 1 17 but pricing has been an issue for me.

An actual original or one of the re-issues?

I discovered the blurred-out feature on the photo editing app on my phone and thought I'd have some fun with it at the same time.

In all seriousness, I'm not familiar with NEC and certainly wasn't aware of that specific one you mentioned. It might come as a surprise, but I don't research everything. I already had the mill in place before I saw your post and that's the only area in my garage that was available for a mill. Apologies that I came off a little harsh about it at first, I know you were just trying to look out for me.

Thanks for the compliment on the machining as well. Compared to the drill press, using the mill almost feels like cheating. Kinda like using a hammer to re-shingle a roof versus a nail gun.

No worries, brother. You're going to be hard pressed to **** me off. There are some that cause me to step away, but the CZickos don't run with that crowd.

 

[TJ Kackowski]

Hmmmm ... didn't know that **** is a regulated word on INGO ... reminds me of the old George Carlin bit ... "And **** doesn't even belong on the list, y'know, Man. that's such a friendly sounding word."

An original.

Probably would if not for the location.

You might want to contact the seller if you're interested in the 686-1 and confirm his location. I suspect it is Houston, IN instead of TX. Under his Avatar, Brownstown is listed which is close to Houston, IN. That would make it an easy run for myself or RR.

Replaced the batteries in the 2 guns with TLR-8 lights/lazers installed. One is a G45 and the other is a CZ P-10C. both are conveniently stashed around the house.

Morn'n CZickos. I see a nap in my future.

Morning all...

I just recently got my first CZ. 75D compact, with a 5 digit serial number. F13XX. Is it compatible with a cajun trigger job? what can I do with it besides putting on thinner and newer grips, and enjoying the flat shooting awesomeness, if subpar trigger and odd sights?

Yep, first step is to buy the CGW Pro package for your model gun, get the sites you want (I advise going with either TFX Pros or night fision sights), then get in touch with the Wizard and see if he can do the install for you. He will make it awesome, like so:

Same here brother. My stepson thought it would be a good idea to start up the dryer at 5:30am when he got home, waking me up after only around 6 hours sleep.

 

[bcannon]

Only had 3hrs sleep. I'm not going to make it to nap time, I'm going for resleep. BBL WT.

Morning folks! ️

Very cool...I have been sorta looking for Gen 1 17 but pricing has been an issue for me.

There were 4 re-issue Gen 1 17s at the 1500. 3 were selling for $559 and the 4th $650. My son was close to picking one up but decided to pass.
