new CZ vs. new Jericho. Is CZ worth the money?

[DW357]

If anything the CZ is a little rougher around the edges when you start taking them apart and looking at the internal finishing and millwork.

Agreed. The exterior finish on my highly polished 75B is awesome but the internal finish of the metal is somewhat rough but not awful.

This review is pretty accurate as far as the assessment of the internal finish goes. Roughly milled and they don't bother painting the inside of the frame. Not a big deal as it works just fine, just something that I found a little surprising.

That new shadow won't make weight for idpa they say.

All I care is that it makes weight for USPSA Production, providing I could actually find one to buy in MA...

Haters.

Whatever.

This gun almost makes me want to think about the possibility of thinking about trying Ladies division

That's why they're $300 less than a Sig. I'm ok with that.

Yep. I'm perfectly satisfied with mine. Great gun for the money. When I sent mine off to Cajun gun works, the gunsmith told me that the parts used in the stainless models are finished better than the blued/black models?

I've had great luck with CZ clones. The fit and finish on my (all steel) Jericho/Baby Eagle was at least as good as that of my CZ if not actually better. My Tanfoglio clone of a 75 compact (FAB 92) is also right there with my actual P01 in terms of quality and function. If anything the CZ is a little rougher around the edges when you start taking them apart and looking at the internal finishing and millwork.

My TZ75 is among my favorites guns of all time.

For the money they're a steal. I think I paid $300? $350? for my FAB 92.

If I had $400 sitting around I'd be all over this.

My dad gave me his.

Wood grips were slippery.

I really like the look of the Jericho, and I have no doubt they are built just as well as a CZ (which have an excellent reputation in their own right).

same here, but you cannot beat CZ QC.

I'd consider a Jericho if they had a decocker version. Getting CZ P01 instead.

CZs are a little rough around the edges; I was not impressed at all with the finish on my Shadow or the machine work on the parts and frame. As far as I'm concerned all the Shadow has going for it are the ergonomics, tough to beat. I wish SIG would build a Shadow clone, maybe it would cost a little less than a Sphinx.

Seems to me that CZ's are well engineered and have a good finish on the outside, they just don't bother finishing the interior. Which is why they cost $400 less than a Sig, I'm cool with that.

US-made Sigs don't seem any more reliable than much cheaper guns. My only Sig is West German-made.

I like the look of the de-cocker CZ - P07 Duty compact and the Rami BD subcompact.. i wish i could find one to pick up
