The CZickness #XIV....It continues

[Hoosier45]

Some pistols have really made the rounds in this group. Hopefully, as this group continues to evolve over the years, the best of the pistols stay within our circle. Right now, 4 of my CZs were BA's at one point and 3 of those where worked on by the Wizard himself. I have no CM tuned 1911s though. Might need to fix that one of these days.

I believe I am up to 6 former BA/Wizard resurrections. I did have a CM 1911, but he took it back from me. Maybe some day he'll let me try again.

Now I want to try a P01. But I will wait.
Honestly I want to try them all.

My P-01 is fast becoming my favorite pistol. The SP-01 Tactical is a close second. They both will be touched by the WIzard at some point soon. The P-01 will be first.

This is from CZ's website:

Reliability: The U.S. Army “Mean Rounds Between Failure” (MRBF) requirement is 495 rounds for 9mm pistols. During testing of the CZ P-01, the average number of stoppages was only 7 per 15,000 rounds fired. This is a .05% failure rate or an MRBF of 2142! For many years, the P-01 carried an NSN engraved on its frame, making it the first NATO-spec pistol ever available to the public. Recently, the factory decided to upgrade the slide stop spring which in turn means the current models may or may not carry an NSN.​

This seems to be hit-or-miss. My Wizardized P-01 doesn't carry the NSN, but I've seen newer releases that do, and some that do not. I think it's kind of cool to have it on there as a bit of a badge CZ had to earn.

Wow those grips look great. That's one thing about being a glock guy is that i dont get to use any VZ grips. Now I can put them on a CZ. But I want a set of wood too. And I like the rubber. Damn it I gotta buy more CZ pistols just to be able to have different grips

Here's my old P-01, before and after. Of course, my niece finally wore me down and I sold it to her and replaced it with my 75 compact.

No NSN on mine, either.

Even though I shared these before, I'll share them again, because of all the P-01/SP-01 talk and because these were my favorites I ever owned. The P-01 was and still is my favorite CZ pistol out there. Mine had a custom cerakote color that looked grey in one light and blue in another, made it even better and the trigger was the bees knees.

 

[Trigger Time]

Wow you guys have some killer pieces

Weren't you just saying you were looking for something new? Why not another P-01?

Great guns on here, even better people.

You are right Sir. And people that like to peer pressure each other into spending money on guns
This thread for gun guys is like having Bobby brown, whitney Houston, Chris Farley and Charlee sheen sponsor each other at narcotics anonymous.

From a great guy who is responsible for most of those great guns.

/\ he's right ya'know

My first CZ (besides a cz52) (Israeli trade in CZ75 beat to hell cosmetically but cherry inside) all because BA not only recomended it but also linked me up with the seller online.
- my first CZ (besides a cz52) I ever fired was BA's personal Wizard pimped RAMI and God was it sweet.

Does a CZ52 even count as a.CZ?

I think a CZ 52 definitely qualifies.

I was considering a PCR because I realize I wouldn't really need a rail and I remember the P01 being sometimes difficult to re-holster because of the square nose, where the PCR looks to be a little more tapered in that area.

 

[mcapo]

PCR. Oh yea!! Now you are talking!

 

[Hoosier45]

+1 for PCR

 

[doddg]

This is quite true.

The 500 round suggestion was more an open ploy to encourage doddg to put in more trigger time before jumping ship.

500 rounds for a lot of us is just an average range trip!!!

1. I just stumbled on this comment about encouraging doddg, and since I am he I would like to add:
When I went to the range today, I put about 300 rounds through.
When I went to the range the day before, on Thursday, I put about 200 rounds through.
When I went to the rangb the the day before that on Wednesday, I put about 300 rounds through.
I went to the range Monday and Tuesday as, well.
So, I'm putting between 1000 - 1500 rounds through every week, going every day (except on weekends) nearly since I was able to limp to the car after surgery.
When school starts, I'll have to cut back to 1 or 2 times per week.
My defense rests.

Perfect night to be sitting out by the fire.

 

[T-DOGG]

PCR. Oh yea!! Now you are talking!

$579 plus tax locally, after paying for an HVAC inspection and a year gym membership, I think I have enough left to cover the tax.
