The CZickness XIII: Lucky 13, we could all use some.

When you've been around as long as he has, names accumulate. I've heard that he and General Custer used to butt heads a lot.

Custer just wouldn't listen. Ain't that right, CM?

GC was OK he just thought way to much of himself...

1. I'm only a minor History Teacher, and do little of that anymore and mostly forgotten anything I thought I knew, but I know enough to "get" that remark: and you are so right!
2. He was a true "prima donna" (is someone who acts like they are the star of the show)

Awww....my CZ family is expecting the arrival on Thursday of a new little one (pending a successful meet...).

Time to find a new spot in the nursery err...safe.

Just picked up a Phantom tonight. Since I need to step away from the heavier recoil guns for a couple of months, I traded my Gen 4 G20 for the Phantom II. It's not the coveted Phantom Shadow that is rarely seen, but I think I'll like this one. I'm thinking that I may gather parts and do the full CGW package on it while the shoulder heals. First, I need to shoot it while I still can.

It really was timed perfect. The G20 is better off with someone that can take it out and enjoy it and I'm happier with a 9mm that I can run without making the shoulder worse.

I saw that Phantom in the classies ...... under the circumstances, that's a tailor-made trade for you, 88 !

I wondered which of you guys was going to jump on that. Don't know much about the CZ's myself, except what I'm picking up briefly from this thread.

I picked up the single stack from AllenM today.
Rolling north with KJ on the pantsless hiway.
Going to see a friend.

I picked-up my new Sig 220 Elite today. As expected, it's a beauty ..... my heart went pitter-patter !
It came with different grips than the (wrong) photo that I shared the other day. It's wearing custom walnut, with the Sig medallion. Love it !

Everybody smashes ribs but me. I am a lean meat kind of guy. No fat. Period. None. Nada. If I can get just the meat it is pretty tasty but just not a fan.

I can understand that. I'm pretty similar.

THAT deserves another picture on the next page. Nice nice sig! Metal and wood...the stuff guns are made off!

Gorgeous! I'm looking forward to your range report

 

[MindfulMan]

Thanks, guys !

I bought a box of .45 Blazer brass from USDS just to have something ..... might get the itch to go to the cabin when the rain cools things a mite.
Otherwise, I've got a $100 of .45 ammo enroute from Midway USA, and it should be here later in the week.
Right now, it's too hot for me to even use my membership at Point Blank !

Until I get a chance to actually shoot it, I'll entertain myself by fondling, and getting some good photos with my pro Canon rig. (the above photo is just a cell phone pic)

Nice! How long before it's off to see the wizard?

Probably a little while. We have a vacation and some work travel the next six weeks cluttering up the schedule. At least that is what I am telling my wife. - JUST KIDDING!!!

Truth? I am guessing it is going to be to him real soon! I recently picked up the polished 75B (well, Hopper got it for me via the Pantless Highway) and I'm thinking since that it is clearly range fun only that it needs to have an ultra light trigger. Not sure about the upcoming arrival but he will probably have two more from me real soon (that is a warning, Mr. Wizard!).

I live in Lafayette, near Mr. Wizard. I work in Peru, not too far from you. I am always a pantsless highway option. Just have to borrow the camaro so I get there faster...
