CZ75 D COMPACT PCR UNBOXING & FIRST SHOTS
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 авг 2024
- This video is an unboxing, quick overview and some of the first shots with my new CZ75 D Compact PCR (Police Czech Republic). This aluminum alloy framed gun cut 4 oz off the weight of the all steel compacts. Designed for concealed carry, this gun fits right in the "Goldilocks zone" of compact handguns. It's small enough to conceal but big enough to shoot like a full sized gun.
Congrats on your 1st CZ! And yes it is beautiful!
Thanks, I fell in love with it.
A work of art. You are right, that is a beautiful gun
I just got one 4days ago after looking for one for months and now I’m hooked and In with love it I can’t wait to take it to the range..🇺🇸
Cool. I love mine.
I think every CZ with the decocker is nearly impossible to get hold of. I waited over 6 months to get my RAMI D.
Congratulations on joining the CZ club.
#czechawesomeness
Five or six weeks ago I was seeing them fairly regularly online for cheaper than I paid for mine. Still got it for under list price but they sell out as soon as they're listed. The gun store where I had this transferred told me they tried to get some and they were sold out before they could get an order in.
Yeah, I got super lucky with mine. My LGS opened the box while I was there and the guy who was going to buy it backed out. I took it off their hands.
I just got a cz 75d. Are that that rare?
I bought one and yes they are kinda scarce, scarce enough to if you buy from some shops they may just pimp the price up a one hundred or so. But the design is nice so you want it.
Just got mine yesterday. The store had the D PCR model and the B all steel version. Both were priced at $699. Looks like your prediction of price drops did not pan out. I already had a 75B full size and the 97BD (which was just discontinued BTW) so I knew it would be a great shooter.
I agree it is beautiful. The fit and finish are excellent. Even with the stock grips it feels like part of my hand. I have plans to do several changes to make it even better and more personal. It will be my EDC. And am thinking about stating in the will that all 3 CZs go in the box with me. ;-) Semper Paratus!!!
Nice, I bought my pcr 3 years ago for $568.00. I just bought a P01 yesterday for $699. The gun shop I was at had both pcr and p01 in stock for $699 so prices went up for sure. Still couldn't help myself from buying that P01. Came out to $800 after tax and dros fees.
Got my PCR yesterday. Can’t be more happy. Hate Glocks ergonomics and feel in my hand. Couldn’t stand it. PCR is just truly amazing.
I agree with all of that. I've already replaced the grips and sights and now I love it even more.
I you have glock ergonomics THEN get a p10 or P07 or P09.
Great pistol, it’s my main carry pistol! Other being a S&W M&P 2.0, 3.6. Now I did buy some LOK Roughneck grips and TruGlo TFX sights, makes a big difference. Other than those two items the gun is stock. Oh, i highly recommend a Vedder IWB holster..
We're on the same page. I have TruGlo sights already (waiting for a sight pusher, Wednesday supposedly) and I bought a Vedder IWB holster while I was waiting for the gun to come in. My LOK grips were supposed to be in the mail today... Hoping for tomorrow.
Exactly my two best 9MM handguns...the CZ PCR and the S&W M&P 2.0 9MM 3.6"...
Watch out dry firing the CZ as it can ruin the firing pin retaining pin which can be seen on the upper slide. I used the S&W in a combat shooting school the first weekend in April and never a problem in two days of shooting.
@@MrBulletpoints I also bought a Vedder IWB appendix holster w/claw for mine too, great holster!
Congrats on your setup, for me this is the best gun and holster for appendix carry. Best damn pistol for the money IMO!
Beautiful. Enjoy it !
Thanks, I love it.
FYI I've never had a malfunction. I've mostly shot reloads and Israel die cuts (got a good deal on a couple of cases). Very good quality
Great video and weapon
Thanks, I appreciate it.
💯. Worth the money
Great gun👍🏾😷
Thanks, don't know why I didn't get one sooner.
CZ's are awesome..
I'm loving this one. Thanks.
Beautiful pistol and that black trigger looks great! I’m looking for a new ccw I need something more compact than what I carry at the moment. How does this compare in size to a glock 19?
They’re pretty much the same size, the cz weighs about 4 ounces more. If you go to handgunhero.com you can compare the sizes and dimensions of any handgun.
Good video. I just purchased this pistol and had much the same reaction it’s totally a beautiful gun. I’m glad it’s not just me. I’m not impressed with the plastic guide rod but don’t have plans to replace it yet.
I had a similar experience shooting the pistol. I don’t shoot it as well as I do my Sig P229 or P320 or even Sig P226 which all have a similar manual of arms but still well within the range of what I’d consider safe to carry. I’ll be practicing much more but the first 150 rounds went completely without a glitch and I was very pleasantly surprised to learn that although everything says otherwise I did receive 15 round magazines. For my taste this pistol has all the features to be “my” perfect carry pistol. It’s light and the manual of arms is as safe as a revolver…. I actually like the rubber grips although I did notice the magazines sticking …I just didn’t know why.
My problem… sorta is that my hands are larger and I do actually find myself using the aeration’s on the trigger guard to steady the pistol as I shoot. It changes my normal grip and has my shooting off a bit but I can still manage fist sized groups ….well within the safe to carry range.
I will look into some VZ grips as I have a 1911 that came with them installed and they were a huge improvement. Anyway, I appreciated your points and experience with the pistol. I’ll be looking to replace that plastic guide rod just because.
🤦🏻♂️ just order a Steel Guide Rod. Perhaps 🤔 I’ll shoot it better now.
@@jameslogan6127 Lol the steel guide rod fetish. It will not make it or you shoot better. If you think it does it is a placebo effect! Been shooting 60+ years thousands of rounds per year never had a guide rod failure over 60,000 through one of my firearms still a poly guide rod.
Brand new I had to clean the mag well... the packing grease made the grips sticky inside.
Can you tell me what holster you use for the pcr which I just bought too.
Vedder Holsters makes a really nice Kydex IWB for the PCR. I've been meaning to do a video about it, thanks for reminding me... Fits perfectly even with the modified sights. Vedder Light Tuck.
I have a Shadow2 and just ordered one of these online. Video is very helpful. I’m wondering if I am getting the black trigger and 15 round mags like yours, or the chrome trigger with 14 round mags. I’m good with either.
I paid $629 and they had the p-01 decocker model for $589. PCR is the one I wanted. Maybe I paid $100 more for the gun than normal times, but screw it...it’s 2020 and I was lucky to find one. When I get a good firearm I quickly forget / don’t think about what I paid for it.
Very good chance you'll get the black trigger. They are selling them as fast as they can make them and nobody's got any older ones in stock.
Mate, the grips don't touch the mag. The resistance is caused by the mag. release button not being pressed deep enough, i.e. it's pushing on the magazine. You can actually see the button move when you slide the magazine in-out in the well. Press the button hard enough and the magazine will pop right out (just like you demonstrated yourself on the 1st try in the video).
@Chris James I see. Well I can't contradict you in that---I never had that issue with mine, but I bought it second hand and nicely burned-in... Have it for years and it remains my 2nd most favourite pistol---absolutely reliable, I never had a single malfunction and a delight to shoot.
The 1st attempt done in the video shows smooth ejection though---I'd still say that the problem was basically "being too gentle" with this piece of duty equipment.
It is true, however, that we Czech shooters were a bit displeased with CZ's production quality from a certain period around the beginning of the millennium. Recent production seems to be fine again, though. (Although some people continue to frown at CZ for primarily aiming to saturate the demand of the US market; paradoxically, new products reach Czech shelves easily 1/2 a year later than yours... But that's simply a matter of business and a completely different story.)
@Chris James Yeah, the P10C is actually a great example---I've been watching reviews of the pistol for _at least_ 1/2 a year before it made it to the CZ's own shop in Prague... Again, that makes a lot of people quite angry with CZ (you can tell when you go through the Czech shooting fora). Personally, I can't see why---that's just logical. CZ is a privately owned company and if you have a market of some 330M people where ~40% of households keep a firearm (estimated) and compare that to a market of about 10M people, ~300K of them your potential clients, it's clear what your priority shall be... Patriotism is a nice thing, but business is business. 🙂
As to our gun laws, it probably won't surprise you that they differ _a lot_ from yours. In order to own, keep and/or (potentially) carry a firearm, you need a license. All weapons manufactured after 1890 must be registered and may only be sold to a license holder. Owning a gun without a license or one which isn't registered is a crime for which you may go to jail.
In order to get the license, you first need to pass a 3-tier exam. The 1st round is a written test from the gun law, technical questions about firearms and a healthcare minimum (questions about treating bullet-inflicted wounds, pneumothorax and so on). There are about 850 possible questions in total, the test consists of a few dozens of them (depending on the kind of license you request) and you just select the correct answers. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the law is actually very logical and systematic. Even without any study at all, I got 67% of the answers right when I "did my homework" and after just a few runs, I found that there were just ~15 questions that required me to be careful and memorise something; the rest was clear and simple. Indeed, at the exam, there was just one guy who got 1 answer wrong, all the rest of us had full marks and we all passed. So the theoretical part is fine---and the knowledge is actually helpful in practice.
The 2nd part of the exam is the "dreadful" one. :-) The safe manipulation exam. It's not really that hard when you're prepared by somebody who knows what they're doing, but apparently, that's where quite a lot of people fail. You're given a weapon (depending on your license, it may be a semi-auto pistol, a shotgun or a repeating rifle) and you have to demonstrate how to put it into safe state, disassemble and reassemble it for cleaning, show the correct procedure of commencing fire, interruption, continuation and finalisation and how to correctly and safely mend the common malfunctions that can happen. All that in front of a panel of a ministry-appointed commissioner and 2 policemen. Even a very slight mistake means dismissal from the examination. When I did the test, the 1st 5 people summoned into the examination room were out of there in less than 1/2 a minute, having failed. You can imagine what that does to the nerves of those who wait for their turn... I've been to university, I know how to handle that sort of exam stress, but the faces of some other people going positively green... 🙂
The last part is actual shooting. That's OK, from the pistol, you're typically required to hit a target of 50cm in diameter ('bout a foot and a half) at 10m (roughly 10 yards) by 4 out of 5 shots under 2 minutes. Normally, that's easy---but with the stress, it may actually get a bit problematic, especially for a beginner... With a rifle, it's similar, just shooting at 25m, for a shotgun, you're required to hit a gong at 25m at least once out of 2 attempts (common birdshot). That's standing up, no support (except for the rifle, where you may use a vertical pole or similar).
Passing all that, you then need your doctor to examine you (you mustn't be blind and so on... ;-)) Part of that may be psychological examination if the doctor has some doubts about the state of the applicant's mind. With all that, you'll then go to your local police department and request the license. They'll do a _thorough_ background check---you must not have committed any crime for years (or with more serious ones ever) and you must not have more than 1 misdemeanour per 3 consecutive months to be a licensee. That includes things like DUI. If any of these requirements are violated, you immediately lose it. If you fail any part of the test, you may try again in 15 days, but if you fail again, you have to wait for no less than 3 months.
So, as you can see, getting the license is not all that easy---that's why there are only ~300K Czech shooters. However, when you have a license, you're eligible to own, hold and possibly carry (concealed) pretty much any semi-auto or repeating firearm. Full-auto guns are also possible to own, but only exceptionally (and you need a good reason---typically inheritance; just "wanting to own a machine gun" is not good enough ;-)).
Recently, there was a change regarding to magazine capacity (EU-wide regulation). For pistol magazines larger than 20 rounds or rifle/shotgun magazines larger than 10 rounds, you also need an exception. However, that exception is actually not all that difficult to obtain (e.g. existing ownership of respective weapon suffices).
So what do you think? Personally, I don't mind the exams; in fact, I think that people should have the appropriate knowledge, especially when it comes to the safe manipulation procedures and drill. Guns are not toys and responsible owner should be trained.
As to the lawful limitations; well, the magazine size reduction is silly IMO (a result of the fear of terrorism), but not really that much bothering.
As to the ranges, there are quite a lot of them. Czech Republic is relatively densely populated though, so there are often noise limits applied---meaning that you can only shoot calibres up to e.g. .357 Magnum... To shoot rifle/shotgun ammunition, you need to find one which is more secluded, in the woods and so on... And these need to be official of course; except for hunting, people are not allowed to just shoot wherever they want outdoors (doing that would cost you your license, again).
I should also note that there are specific requirements on the storage of your weapons. For more than 2 pistols/revolvers, you already need a certified safe, with appropriately good lock resistant to lock-picking. Such a safe must not contain more than 10 firearms (but you may get more of them). For 20 or more weapons, you need a vault of even higher standard. That's typically the reason why Czech shooters don't own such large collections as you do in America---simply because it'd be difficult to store the guns accordingly to the law.
My personal one is nearing the capacity already---I might be able to squeeze a nice, original Colt 1911 in though, if I find a reasonably priced one. Funny, how our "common CZs" tend to have a bit special appeal to you, and vice versa when it comes to common old military SAs like 1911 ;-) The prices of those are just ridiculous here, I can tell you.
Wow, I did write a lot; sorry for that :-) Take care mate, cheers! :-)
@Chris James Thanks for the compliment, I try to do my best. 🙂
Well, some of the theoretical test questions are IMO sort of pointless; I mean, there are even questions like "what's the required strength of the security bars on a gun shop" and similar---that's certainly not necessary to know for a common shooter... But again, most of the questions actually give you quite interesting and useful info when you learn, so I don't mind the test. The safe manipulation test requirements are, IMO, a must to know though---e.g. the safe procedure to de-cock a pistol without de-cocker... (Our standard drill teaches the two-thumbs technique.)
Yes, I'd probably feel a bit uneasy knowing that there might be people around me at the range (not to mention in the streets) who carry loaded firearms and don't have even that basic training (there is a lot more to learn, of course). On the other hand, we're talking about less than 3% of the population of my country... Also, I think that people who don't like guns (or even despise them) have more relaxed attitude towards us shooters here (and generally in Europe) than in USA, knowing that we had to pass the exams. Do correct me if I'm wrong (I'm only an external observer of course), but I feel that your society is rather strongly polarised there (other issues aside)---then again, this might be just a simple information bias. In any case, I've got bosom friends and colleagues who would never touch a gun, but they don't think any less of me just because I've got some...
Yes indeed, you don't need to be a Czech national to get the license. Foreigners who have _official_ residency in Czech Republic (even temporary) are eligible to request the license under the same conditions. It's practically unavoidable to learn Czech though, as the exams are conducted in Czech language only and you're not allowed any aid... And the license is revoked when the residency ends.
I've never used a pistol dot. I'm a sort of old-timer there :-) I only have one weapon you could call really modern: the H&K P30, which I converted from SA/DA to LEM v4.1. It's a really good pistol, but I'm just not very fond of polymer frames. I like classical guns better---and just as you write, a collimator on something like SIG Sauer P220 would be bordering sacrilegious... ;-) I might think about it for my MP5, though. And a suppressor---they used to be banned and are only allowed since the beginning of this year, here.
@Chris James As we've started such a pleasant talk here, I'd also like to ask about one thing: I'm a reloader, just like many Czech shooters. I know of course that a lot of American shooters reload too, but I always wondered how many (compared to the others).
The ammo (especially common pistol calibres) is pretty cheap in the US I gather... So is reloading common among you guys? I do it partially because you can indeed save good money, partially because I'm technically minded and simply like to do it and also because I own a few revolvers in a sort of more "exotic" calibre for which there's pretty much no other option than to cast your own bullets...
On your market, there are so many products for reloaders that I can only assume that it must be very common. If only it'd be easier to import that stuff to EU... My bank account would be empty... ;-)
@Chris James Hmm, that's quite a difference in price! I didn't expect the prices to fluctuate that much. Our factory ammo prices tend to just rise steadily. The most commonly used, S&B 9x19mm FMJ, costs about CZK 5.9, that's ~$0.26 per round, now. Cheap (reloaded) ammo costs about $0.2. My reloads with FMJ bullets would cost me about $0.16---so reloading 9mm doesn't save much; then again, the difference is much higher for other calibres---reloading .45 ACP saves about 60% (.45 isn't by far as prolific here as in the States). Similarly for .357 Magnum.
Ammo is pretty available, except for the times when the government makes some sort of big order (for the armed forces). I remember that a couple of years ago, S&B 9x19mm FMJ 124gr was unavailable for several months, sold out everywhere. Nor could I find the powder (Czech Lovex) or S&B primers. Because of that, actually, I started to use French Vectan---and I continue using it, it's a good tubular powder, burns cleanly and consistently and works very well in disk powder measure I use. S&B primers are the cheapest on our market and work fine, albeit being a bit harder than e.g. the Italian Fiocchi (these are easier to press in in my experience).
As to suppressors, I'm surprised that it's so complicated to get them in the US. Now that they're allowed, all you need is to register it after you buy it, that costs CZK 300, i.e. about $14.
The SIG MPX K is a _nice_ one, never had the opportunity to shoot it, but I can imagine that it cycles very smoothly, what with the gas system. I was contemplating buying CZ Scorpion EVO 3, but decided to get the MP5 instead exactly for the benefit of the roller-delayed bolt with lighter carrier. Purley inertial blow-back bolts are rather rough. BTW, the EVO carbine is another example of a product that came much later to Czech market than to yours.
What grips do I get to make the grips feel better and slender ?
LOK
Paid $699 for one in California, picking it up on Monday. I'm not even mad about overpaying, I plan on keeping this piece for life.
Don't know how I didn't get one sooner. I love mine.
1 year ago today. It's still $699.00 in CA. So is the P01. Still bought one anyway. The P01 that is. $800 tax and dros .
Jethro Tull for the intro??? It’s driving me crazy!! I recognize those notes & can’t remember Ps awesome cz love it. On mine I noticed if the slide locked open and slam a loaded mag in the slide will go into battery. Is this true on yours???
I haven't tried it but that is not super uncommon on some guns. Some people like that and do it on purpose.
Back off the grip screws a tad, and the mags will FLY out of the well. The CZ factory tightens them too much. Worked for me.
Thanks, I was trying to figure out why my mag would millimeter it's way out.
You are exactly right, backed the screws out a bit mags drop right out thanks for the info.
Is the recoil manageable for new shooters (like me) to aim at the right target just like how they are with a Colt 1911 in .45 ACP?
I hope it’s not bad and uncontrollable like the Beretta PX4 Storm.
Sorry, I just saw this question. Recoil is not terrible if you have a firm grip, however it did surprise me twice the first time I shot it and I ended up accidentally firing two shots when I only intentionally pulled the trigger once (technically a negligent discharge, but a harmless one). Recoil is not punishing but could fall into the "snappy" category.
@@MrBulletpoints Oh I see. Thanks. Noted.
Hello nice review
Question ; why does it say Kansas city, kansas on it if its made in Czech Rep.
Good question, I don't like it but I believe it might actually be a legal requirement that that the American distributors of firearms have to mark the weapons with their location. It says "made in Czech Republic" but also has the distributors info stamped on it. Glocks say "Smyrna Georgia" (newer ones), Taurus says "Miami Fl", Sig Sauer says "Maryland" (some are actually made in Maryland)Great question, Thanks.
Make and model for new grips please. Thx
Hi, thank you for interesting video. So PCR-s are still in production?
Yes, I just got a notification that a store had them in stock. Can't remember which one . Search gun.deals and you'll find them. They usually sell out fast.
I will not carry an ugly gun nor drive an ugly truck. Love my PCR and my GMC Denali! Both in Black.
did yours come with the shot placement card from CZ?
I just went and dug the box up because I couldn't remember... No it did not. Just a warranty card and manual.
Yep, it was my first CZ also. Of course, I had to let Cajun Gun Works do their magic on it. Also put Lok Grip thin Matrix grips on it. I love this gun.
It is more likely the magazine release mechanism is binding the magazine, not the grips. Try inserting the mag while pressing the release button. Nice pistol I have one as well.
Thanks for the comment. Not sure exactly what caused the hangup but after I I changed the grips to LOK G10 grips the mags dropped freely. I love my PCR.
Back screws out.some & or put on flat surface in hot sun with some weight pushing them flat for a few days.if they're twisted.rubber 1\2 way down under pounds of more grips.all poped ou t of mold before completely cooled..possible.lay on pain of glass or something super flat & see if they rock or any light show s under it.slice some off if needed .relieve.dog have one just ideas.nice gun!!!
Just got my PCR. I have Cujungun works race hammer and old style trigger on the way plus the spring set to reduce the pull weight.
Cool, I haven't done anything with the trigger yet but I love mine.
I really like the 75D. I use Hornady Critical Defense 9 mm 115g as other hollow points have issues with feeding as it was made for ball ammo. I knew this when I got it. Just an fyi.
Love the factor grips but I have large hands. Love this gun.
I actually like the factory grips too but they're a little too wide for me. (I replied to your comment a couple of days ago but it seems to have disappeared. I've had that happen a few times lately. Thanks for the comment.).
@@MrBulletpoints you are welcome. Appreciate you video.
Mags should shoot out. Check the flat plate inside is not deformed. Rubber grips don't drag the mag.
1st thing to replace is the firing pin block pin or just only dry fire with snap cap. That pin is cheap and will deform or break.
My EDC.
It’s not the grips that’s preventing the magazine from dropping free, it’s the leaf hammer spring
I got lucky and picked one up not knowing what it was just thought I was getting a cz75 compact then I realized it was the PCR
Any one heard of the aluminum frame cracking? I’ve read a lot of stories about aluminum being the worst for that.
There’s a compact ( not the pcr) online from my local for 794$. Insane.
I just bought one today for 725. Can't wait for the 10 day crazy Cali wait to get it!
Try exposing it to a black light. It’s super charges that type of glow in the dark stuff. The rubber grips are awesome and sticky. For winter/autumn carrier they are perfect. No hand slippage. I switch them out to the thin aluminum during the summer so it’s a thinner profile that’s easier to conceal with summer cloths.
I changed out the stock sights with tritium. They are very easy to see in any lighting conditions.
@@MrBulletpoints awesome. How was that? Something you can do yourself or is a smith thing? Do you have to drill n tap anything yourself or is it an easy exchange?
is this a good ccw?
I haven't carried it yet but yes, it was designed to be a concealed carry gun, BUT! it is all metal so it it heavier than a polymer gun like a Glock etc. so it needs to be in a good holster with a good gun belt. It is virtually the same size as a Glock 19 and it conceals better than I expected. I can conceal it easily under a T-shirt.
Imo it's an awesome ccw. It's been mine for 2 plus years. As far as weight were talking 28oz vs 24oz in a g19, which is not very much and very manageable, but if you're a candy ass like this guy who cant pull the slide back like a man 4oz may be a lot. I carry with a bullhide daltech force gunbelt and a iwb harvester from Bitterroot Gunleather. It's like it's not even there.
I thought pcr came with silver trigger?
The earlier ones did. I think mine was one of the first of the run with the black trigger. Thanks for the comment.
Very nice!
Thanks EF, I'm loving it.
Whats crazy is my local gun store has these just sitting on the selves lol. And I’m in CA
Only 10 rounds in Ca. They usually fly off the shelves as soon as they come in or they are all spoken for ahead of time and don't even make it to the shelves. Gun and ammo supply seems to finally be catching up with demand. Thanks for the info.
Yup...same here...I'm in Los Angeles....jst got me one today.
Can only get a 10 round in California, because that is going to stop criminals from getting a 15 round magazine. Great Law primarily helpful for law enforcement to have a tactical advantage-more bullets before reloading. Great peachy Law??? I do not like that hole in the trigger but it is a very beautiful weapon.
Thanks, California has some very "special" laws..... They just need to feel like they're doing something if it makes any sense or not.
They’ll go down in price? Haha *laughs in panic buy histeria*
Seriously. I just paid close to $700 for mine (after taxes) but I had to have it.
I'm not always wrong, I just got a notification that a store had them stock I think it was just over $600. Don't remember which one search for them online. This price is down from where they were.
@@MrBulletpoints this is true. I was pleasantly surprised. Thank you for following up.
I’m in Wisconsin and just paid $780 after taxes and fees.😢
Wow, they’ve gone up! Mine was only $499 back in 2019 (& that came with 3 extra mags - total of 5)
Thanks for the review. Question. What do you think of the recoil impulse of this gun? I owned one and didn’t like shooting it. The gun was downright painful to shoot. Even with the rubber grips, the gun still moves around in the hand a lot and the alloy frame wasn’t doing me any favors as far as soaking up recoil. I ended up trading it.
What has been your experience?
Holding it very firmly I found it really comfortable to shoot. I have had some other guns that were like that. I got rid of my Glock 26 because it was unpleasant to shoot. I think it comes down to what is comfortable for you. There are a lot of factors at play. Everybody is different. Hand size, grip... lots of things to consider. Go with what works for you is the best advice. Thanks for the comment.
MrBulletpoints
It’s ironic you mention a Glock 26 because that’s the gun I traded to get the CZ. I think I just traded a gun that didn’t work for me for another gun that, once again, didn’t work for me. Eventually I got a Beretta M9A3 and I love it. It’s a huge gun but shooting it is so pleasant and I’m laser like accurate with it. It’s almost cheating.
I purchased the gun and I didn’t even keep it a week. I just wanted to get someone else’s opinion to see if I acted hastily. I’m thinking I did the right thing. Thanks for the response.
A pleasure to shoot, very accurate, no recoil problem at all, but I am a youngster, 82 years old.
Sounds like you need more experience shooting
The gun does not have a safety feature??
The "D" stands for decocker. Engaging it puts the pistol into half cock mode, i.e. double action, requiring more trigger pull for the first round, remaining rounds are all single action. A safety model is also available.
#CZLIFE you might want to also change out your firing pin retaining pin. TFS.
Thanks, I have heard about that.
If you haven't done it already, I would at a minimum suggest swapping out the stock hammer spring for something lighter. Like most DA/SA pistols, the PCR comes with a stock hammer spring that is much heavier than actually necessary (usually 10-12 lbs in DA). Lighten that up, and the transition from the DA pull to SA becomes much easier, while still affording the peace of mind of a heavier first pull. Hammer springs are cheap and it's one of the easiest and most noticeable upgrades you can do.
Thanks. I've done the stainless steel guide rod and replaced the sights and grips so far. I'm really liking this gun.
@@MrBulletpoints I'd look into going back to the original guide rod. I've heard it actually damages your firearm and it's plastic for a reason. It may break but can be replaced easily.
I agree Glocks are ugly but, they sure are reliable 😂👍🇺🇸
Very true. I never had any kind of an issue with Glocks. Thanks Uncle Dan.
I don’t. I like how they look. Haha
@@born321 me neither....I like how they shoot👍🇺🇸
Why would anyone want more than five CZs? Call me silly but my five satisfies my every pistol needs.
Clear the gun!
I run nothing but MecGar mags in my CZ, they function better than the factory mags #czlife
Just about every major gun manufacturer is using them now.
CZ factory mags are mec gar you cornball

@gunwild1 sorry just had a long day of dealing with people's who's heads are lodged up their asses and now it continues in the comments section 🤦.
Fake unboxing😱😱😆😆👍 Nice buy, awesome CZ!
Thanks, I fell in love with this gun.
This guy sounds like a hipster. Glocks are the best from a reliability standpoint.
I have a glock 19 since 1992. Never a malfunction on an uncounted amount of rounds. Have a PCR with about 2000 rounds and never a malfunction. I put them both in the uber reliable category
You sound like a homer for glock. Open your mind. I own both , can’t beat cz for looks and accuracy although my cz p 10 s. Look like glocks. Lol. The 75s look the best.
8 Failures in 15,000 rounds in the NATO test which it passed. MORE countries in Europe use the CZ than the Glock for the police Force. Glock is certainly not the only gun that will run.
