The new CZ 75B Cold War Commemorative has come into the shop.
-
That is a nice beit of steel.
I have a cz85 combat and has never jammed or failed regardless of the ammo I have fed it and I have put 000's rounds through it. I played with a SP01 today and its also a nice piece, bloody horrible trigger though, feels more like your pulling a rubber band than a trigger

The CZ along with the Baby Desert Eagle are 2 of the best values in the semi auto pistol market today. Both are machined from solid steel. I'm a person who will trade some extra weight for the added durability of an all steel weapon every time. Bill T.

CZ is one of the better and proven designed pistols, I have a Tangfolio, EAA Witness (clone) compact in .40, and it never has any issues with ammo, or function.

I like the printing on the slide as it looks interesting. I love the 75B, but I can see if I got one of those that the hammer would have to be changed out.

Other than the CZ USA information the text on the gun is in Russian and the serial numbers begin with CCCP.

I don't Know, kind of disturbing, that imagery brings back memories, the red star too. I love the pistols. Here is a pic of my 75, no import marks, epoxie finish, lanyard ring pistol, It is very slick in action. They should have included the lanyard ring.

Agreed. I probably won't ever use one, but for a duty piece, its an option I'd like. Just like a flashlight.

Thats a cool looking piece. ;D

I was in Germany in the late 80s and bought many CZ pistols (2x75s, 1x85, 1x83, 4x50s) all great preformers. On the Cold War Commemorative fine to have the Soviet markings on one side but the other should have had either the US or NATO markings in my opinon.
Here's a few of the Cold War period of mine.

I wish I could find one like yours with the round trigger guard. I can't stand the squared off guards on the new imports, I think it kills their lines.

Just an FYI, we have the Cold War at $499. Two more came in today.

I love CZ 75s, but... I don't quite understand why they put Russian markings on a Czech pistol. I mean, during the Cold War, Czechoslovakia was just as commie as the Soviet Union, so why make it "Russian?" The engraving on the slide in Cyrillic is obviously Russian--Czech is written in Roman letters. It's a shame they didn't make a cosmetic replica of the vintage Czech pistol similar to what Combat Diver has. (Nice collection man!) I think CZ missed an opportunity here.
