Did a ton of research, didn't want to go with a "starter gun"

Dude.... I know there are a lot of guns out there and it can get very confusing, I imagine, looking for a first gun. But you said 'I did my research "

Bro.... can you research some stock tips for me??

My CZ never leaves my side. And I have, errr, had, many to pick from.... before the boating accident of course.

I am keeping well away from American Rivers if I ever pop over there.

If you're really gonna flex on the poors you gotta up your game to HK.

I hate to criticize and while the color scheme is nice and aesthetic, I think it will take less brainpower and reaction time for a home invader to get a direct shot off with that neon blue beacon on the side.

3
SpaceForce 3 points ago +3 / -0

But his hands will be covering it. And if you notice the blue grips before a barrel. You are already dead.

-3
MAGAlikeLINCOLN -3 points ago +1 / -4

Camouflage is used for a reason and I don't think the hands will completely cover it. A laser pointer will make a dot far smaller but it provides a great point of focus.

4
Teep 4 points ago +4 / -0

I know it’s your opinion and that’s fine. But a slim blue grip is not the biggest factor in a home intruder knowing their location. And proper holding of said pistol does cover 98% of the side grips. I would rather have a comp gun that shoots flatter and faster than a “regular” starting pistol (stock glock, SW svde, M&P ect)

MAGAlikeLINCOLN 0 points ago +1 / -1

People downvote but it isn't about noticing the blue grips before the barrel or what the biggest factor is. You surely must know that. It is about once the person intends to shoot, how easily they can aim. There are who knows how many variables at play. If there are 100 variables that each can shave off 0.01 seconds or add 0.01 seconds to the time it will take for the other guy to get off a shot then that is a whole second. No professional athlete would say that is minor or say "yes but his hands will be covering 99% of it". No professional would say, I'd rather maximize X variable instead of Y variable when both can be maximized.

Also it is a logical fallacy to state you'd rather have X then Y as if anyone suggested otherwise. All I commented on where the grip colors. I am obviously saying that all else being equal those grip colors should be the same color as the gun. And in essence it is like you are saying, "yes but I'd rather have this gun than a stick". Ummm, ok

Go ahead and order a few cases of ammo. You’ll be burning through rounds. Also buy the 35rd magpul mags. They’re way better than the factory 20rd mags

OldHickorysFlintlock 4 points ago +4 / -0

Nah, unless you’re going to store them full for extremely long periods of time they can handle it. They have pretty robust springs. I haven’t had any problems out of mine.

OldHickorysFlintlock 5 points ago +5 / -0

I don’t pay more than .30 cents/rd. Go make an account at ammoseek.com and do a search. You can create and save searches as well.

I’ve also heard good thrings about LAX ammo after seeing them as a sponsor for Garand Thumb. Their prices a pretty good when you use promo codes

4
OldHickorysFlintlock 4 points ago +4 / -0

Prices are a little jacked right now due to the demand. Under .25/rd was pretty standard for a long time. Maybe it will settle down again soon

RighteousViolence1 2 points ago +3 / -1

I found .17/rd a month ago for steel case 115gr 9mm. I bought a bunch of it.

2
OldHickorysFlintlock 2 points ago +2 / -0

Awesome find. If your gun runs steel you can cut ammo costs bigly.

Do those fit in a CZ-75BD as well?

OldHickorysFlintlock 1 point ago +1 / -0

I was referring to the scorpion that another user said he had just purchased. They aren’t for the handguns but it would be sweet if they made a high cap mag like glock does. Reloading sucks

Vintovka [S] 7 points ago +7 / -0

Yea, it's also a Single Action edition, the trigger is hella crisp and light, super short reset

Vintovka [S] 6 points ago +6 / -0

Thank you everyone for the great comments and thank mods for my first post being stickied :D A little more info on the gun. Came with 3 mags 17+1. Single action version, around 2.5 lbs trigger, very crisp and short reset. This was a partial gift from my dad, I covered the rest!

Beautiful gun!

I have been undecided between getting one of these or a Dan Wesson 1911 for a few years now. I have shot a friends CZ Tactical Sport Orange, and I have shot my brothers DW Commander Classic Bobtail. Both are amazing pistols!

I think I’ll wait until the Dan Wesson DWX is available and get one of those instead. Imagine a CZ shadow 2 with a very nice 1911 trigger!

1
MageGills 1 point ago +1 / -0

My first 1911 will certainly be a Dan Wesson.

Great choice. Do yourself a favor and shoot it a LOT! My CZ 75 SP-01 is my favorite handgun to shoot by a wide margin.

You will enjoy it. I owned one. If you shoot outside keep it out of the sun. Those grips can get really hot. 🇺🇸
