In continental Europe, it's very popular, as they're fairly inexpensive (compared to the German, Austrian, American and Italian competition) and reliable (so I've heard).
Awesome looking, highly accurate & reliable as hell.
CZ's are only popular with those in the know. I am a .45acp guy and will only shoot 9mm if they are in a all steel CZ-75 .
In semi-automatic, most here in the States typically shoot Smith & Wesson, SigSauer, Glock, Springfield Armory, Colt etc. Those here that know about these Czech made weapons are true fans of the platform.
First purchase was in Italy, and had to submit & re-submit importation paperwork over & over before the two were allowed by BATF to be brought in (was a 2-1/2 year ordeal). Upon entry, I promptly sold one of them to a sibling.
I cannot confirm nor deny the third one was purchased in Chile
, no restrictions with the host country, just not allowed to be brought onboard the aircraft carrier......... or smuggled into the states. Said smuggling was
much easier when you flew aircraft for a living (so I'm told).............that pistol went to a different brother of mine.
The fourth is the compact one shown at the top which "I" received as a gift. Am sure this one was gifted because how nice it fits in a
purse IWB holster.
