Is the CZ-75 Actually Reliable? Let's Torture Test It.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 жов 2023
- In this episode of TFBTV, @JamesReeves absolutely destroys a CZ-75 pistol. James has always considered the CZ-75 to be an overrated design, but after spending time with CZ-75 clones over the years, we at TFBTV have developed a respect for the design. But is it all it's cracked up to be? We'll see today on TFBTV.

Came for the gun, stayed for the shovel and James doing manual labor
I think we can all agree the torture test isn’t valid, if I can’t seem some shorty shorts with James Jr and the boys peaking out then I don’t wanna watch it.

Me too, a lawyer, using a shovel. Also, he don't know Lava soap,nope. "Lawyer's hand's don't get that dirty,nope,nope, no lava soap, nope"
@@Samyouell11510 and I was just enjoying the fact he started wearing pants again.
That was a stunt double. James doesn't do manual labor ever.
“Wal-mart greeter who is a huge Nighthawk Guy” is top tier comedic writing. Well done, TFB.
Do you work for Walmart though ?
@@johngriffiths118Yes. (no)
You know the CZ-75 is a great pistol when back in the day Col. Jeff Cooper , staunch 1911 guy that hated communists and 9mm , praised the pistol . And coming from Jeff Cooper that's all that needed to be said .
Praised and COPIED.
Czechs hated and still hate communism as well
And for those who are into it, bounty hunter Rally Vincent loves this gun.
@@lignorof8475not all Czechs. Don’t speak for others
It’s also why they built the first 10mm on the CZ style platform the Bren-ten
That test merely accelerated the CZ break-in process. It’s ready to be a daily carry piece now.
Right?
I bet you after that sand water went through it the action was so smooth once thoroughly cleaned and oiled
The CZ 75 is what John Browning would have designed if he'd lived another 20 years. The other day, I went out into the desert behind the house, set up a target and at 10 yards, drew and fired my EDC carry, the CZ75 P01, cold, no warmup, double action pull, hadn't shot in 3 months, first shot through the X ring. Subsequent shots, emptying the 15 rd. mag, all in the 10 ring. It's that good, carry lint and all.
How do you carry the p-01? I’m trying and it’s just too bulky. I have a custom holster and a good belt. Even my G17 with a RDS is easier to carry. Open carry isn’t an option in my state either.
@@sasquatchhunter86 I carry IWB at 4 o’clock. Lots of people carry it appendix because the hammer makes them feel safer, less inclined to shoot their family jewels off.
@@sasquatchhunter86
I know you didn't ask me, but I'll chime in anyway. My EDC is a PCR, which is almost the same pistol. I'm shaped such that strong side carry works far better for me than Appendix carry, and I'm using an Alien Gear Cloak Tuck 3.5 holster with a decently-stiff belt.
@@sasquatchhunter86shoulder holster
@@sasquatchhunter86prison pocket.
You can see on the last round of the mud test the slide was actually slightly out of battery and the hammer actually pushed it forward enough after a few trigger pulls to fire the last round.
I carried one every day for 15 years when I lived in Johannesburg...flawless firearm, never let me down!
One of the saddest days was when I had to sell it when I emigrated out of that crime and corruption infested hell hole!
Why did you sell?
From what I hear, it's only gotten worse there.
@@mooktemas6800 I emigrated...you can`t take your firearms with you...
@@Mobus_ yeah, that country is months away from total collapse...
@@mooktemas6800I would assume he didn't live in the US based on his other comments
Was there actually a debate on the 75's reliability?
James Yeager said they were junk...
@@Tom-cp6yj cool, no idea who that is
@@Lumadousread up on his bio
@@Tom-cp6yj I don't know of any large LE Agencies In the USA that use them, they are not dry fire safe! If you pull the trigger on an empty chamber you will eventually break the firing pin retaining pin and the pistol won't go bang when you pull the trigger! Another problem with CZ hammer fired pistols Is the QC at the factory , the hammer pins are quite often not staked Into position which will cause the pistol to seize up. If you're curious about these Issues give the guys at Cajun Gun Works a call, they will fill you In! I have a few CZ 75's and I made sure to have them checked out by the Cajun Gun Works guy's. They shoot really well but I would stick with the safety equipped version's over the De-cocker models. Most of the Czech Police & Military Special Ops guys carry Glock 17's! Go Figure!
Some people have said it's unreliable but this video proves them wrong.
CZ ownership is addictive. I started with a P-07 because I wanted to try DA/SA ..then I had to have a 75 (SA only version, which is super sweet) ..next pick up was the P10C. Not really a shotgun guy but always wanted a nice 12ga O/U with nice wood, something I could pick up without breaking the bank.. there’s only one choice- CZ Drake. I’m in no way finished. I guess that makes me a 60yo hipster. I like it.
As a CZ fanboy watching you destroy a work of art, I weep
As a fanboy, you'd realize this is nothing. Real torture has yet to begin.
It’s the omega version…..
I love my CZ-75B stainless, but judging by the grind marks and uneven edges left on my gun from the manufacturing process, it's hardly art.
The shadow 2 is art, these not so much
@johnnyhurley7161 any cz75 is good gun I do own shadow 2 tactical ist beautiful gun 😂😂😂😂
A CZ-75BD has been on my wishlist for a while. After I bought my P-07 I became a big CZ fan.
I bought the Cz-75BD and now want the P-07.
You will not go wrong with the P07.
I started with the BD, then bought a P-07. Added a Bren-2 to my CZ collection last year.
I have a p01 but the 07 is really tempting me. Lot lighter. Still great trigger.
This is a heart warming story 😊
Man, it's nice to see your growth as a respectable gun reviewer, to finally dislodge that glock out of your rectum and revisit original reviews on other pistols to correct them. As a gun lover, the one group I have the most distaste for is the glock guys. Well done Mr Reeves
I agree with everything you said. Still don’t fully trust James, but, I’m hopeful.
@@rudrashakti108Same here 👌
Can't handle the Glock platform you say? You need not fret about that. MANY neutered Butt Nuggets cannot handle or reliably shoot a Glock platform handgun either. Most of those types stay home and take care of their houses while their husband's work and make sure to look Pretty for him when he comes home from work, so it's OK. We don't judge. Much. LMMFAO!!😅
Excellent, excellent post. James is becoming an adult.
😂😂😂
I remember researching pistols to buy years ago. The CZ-75 intrigued me then, and when I finally started getting into guns I knew I wanted one. Bought one (BD model) on sale for $500 and love it; it fits my hand beautifully and it handles like a dream. Definitely a gun to get if you want something different from a striker-fired polymer and don't feel like getting inducted into the Colt Government/1911 cult.
I like the 1911 kool-aid lmfao
CZ P01 is freaking amazing fits perfect in my hands and accurate. Very good ergonomics
My PCR is not only accurate and bulletproof, it's the most comfortable, best fit for my hand handgun I've ever held.
The CZ75 is as pleasing to the hand as a supple young breast.
Don’t pick up a P30
Same here. Every other gun feels like junk compared to my CZ75 D PCR Compact. Thing is a laser beam
@@K-bob_45 the HK is a decent option but not in the same class for me for comfort.
PCR is flawless for real I love mine. Just needed an optic cut
The only malfunction i have ever had on my sp-01 tactical was a failure to feed after shooting about 300+ rounds through it in like 1/2 an hour. It only happened once and has never happened since.
Weirdly, same issue with the same gun around the same round count lol
My shadow 2 have had 1 failure from about 1200 shots i have but it trough yet.
And i think that was very likely my fault when slide was coming back my finger might have pushed
slide release to upward slighty and partially lock/slow down a slide so it didnt had
enough momentum to feed round from almost full mag.
So yes i could say those are very reliable guns.
The only malfunctions I've had with mine was when I hung a can on it and shot some 165gr handloads I did. They were kinda powderpuff loads for safety so I don't fault the gun one bit. Since then it has gotten lots of upgrades.
@@JasonSmith-ok8ejwhere do you recommend getting threaded cz barrels?
CZ 75 owners don't wreck themselves because they Czech themselves 😅
Love that you made this video, I will never subject my cz 75 to such punishment
After a couple years I have a bit of holster rash on the widest part of the frame. I can't imagine treating it like that. It's my daily carry most of the year too, icarus p365 with a dot for light clothing.
Me either because I paid for it myself, but it's nice to see it done if only to confirm my faith in its durability.
I got my 2nd pistol as a police surplus CZ75 pre-B, made in Czechoslovakia. I loved it so much I now have a P01, 2075, and branched out to now own a Jericho 941 and 941FS9
An original 941 or a newer one?
@skeltonslay8er781 probably rocking the II. The thing is a great winter carry with upgraded tritium sights. Shoots like a laser gun at 25 yards.
@@skeltonslay8er781 All of them 😊
I already thought I had pretty good idea that my CZ-75B is most sturdy built most solid construction of all my handguns, but this video only reinforced it.
Also I really like this price point for an all-steel gun.
I’m always keeping my eyes open for all steel frames but usually the prices are out of my budget range. Not so with CZ-75
I love all my CZ’s. Awesome weapons
Bought mine in 85. This was one of the reliable double stack 9s out of the wonder 9 era. Great gun. The down side of it is it’s heavy by today’s standards. The other is the finish on the gun. It’s a lacquer finish which chips. It’s not a show piece but it got used. It has many years of life left in it. It will outlive me.
The P07 is much lighter as it has a polymer frame.
For all cz owners. The only weakpoint of the cz75 is that it's not the best dry fire gun. The firing pin and also the trigger return spring tends to break from 10-20k dry fires.
Cajun addresses both issues and has parts available with better designing that keeps it dry firing forever
Another gun to not that is excellent for dry fire is arex zero of Slovenia which is tested for 30,000 dry fires minimum. Only drawback is no parts modifications or it will no longer be reliable
I was under the impression that the firing pin retaining pin (roll pin) was the weak point, as it tends to get crushed/cracked over time. Dry firing it just accelerates that. And those who "upgrade" to the solid roll pin sometimes end up with a broken firing pin, because now the firing pin itself is taking the beating from smacking into a more durable retaining pin. Essentially the stock firing pin retaining pin is designed intentionally to be a sacrificial part that's supposed to be swapped out during regular maintenance.
@@mmiski you may be right the roll pin and not firing pin. Cajun has the data on it.
Another simple dry fire solution is snap caps + rubber O-ring behind the hammer. You probably don't even need the snap caps, just the O-ring would work. It works so well that I once brought my CZ to a range and it wouldn't shoot, loaded with live ammo, just totally dead, until I realized the O-ring was still in position.. 🤦♂
*The CZ 75 with the original flat spur hammer ( not the round combat version) was the gun that I passed my firearms exam with at the academy. I have loved it ever since. The 1911's and Browning Hi-Power's coming a close second and third.*
You're Preaching to an OG CZ Choir Boy. Love my Hi-Power and 1911, but the DA/SA CZ75 is undeniably accurate and reliable. Tight Groupings to you, Brother in Arms.
Absolutely love my CZ SP01 Shadow 1. It has never let me down in just under 10,000 rounds and going strong.
I love those!
Love my CZ P-01 ❤
Love mine too. Recently sent it to Cajun Gun Works for some goodies and I can’t wait to get it back. 😎
Ditto
I have one also, Helluva good weapon!💪👍
@@BlackAaronWhite CGW really does make these guns amazing.
How long do they take? I've got an omega p01 and a shadow 2. Thought about getting an optic cut on the p01 plus the trigger upgrades. I've heard the omega cgw kit is as good or better than a stock shadow 2.
Although I hit my head a few years ago and jumped on the Glock Fan-Wagon, I'm back at home with hammer fired goodness from, Sig (mid 90's), Beretta, HK, and of course CZ.
Great test. I have a compact 75 I sometimes carry and while I haven’t torture tested it, I find it is the most accurate combat type shooting gun I’ve ever owned. Just gotta remember to decock it.
It’s funny. The second firearm I every purchased was a CZ P-07. While I enjoyed it, I wanted a striker fired pistol, so I went with an HK VP9. Had that for many years. Earlier this year, I picked up a CZC’d PCR, and fell in love with the platform. It is everything I ever wanted in a daily. Amazing SA trigger (2-2.4lbs) unbelievable DA trigger (7-7.6lbs) and ergos that made even the VP9 jealous. I finally went full CZ and picked up a Shadow 2, mainly a range toy. Holy cow, was a firearm. I’ve a firm believer in the CZ metal framed pistols now.
Made the purchase of my first handgun back in 2020. so glad it was the CZ 75 sp-01 tactical. I've loved it and this video has only shown me it's full potential.
I'm fortunate that a CZ-75 BD was my *first* 9mm handgun. I wasn't a firearm hipster or looking for a "boutique" gun. I just wanted something that felt good to shoot. I had fired a friend's Glock and *hated* it, but I loved his Beretta 92FS. After doing some research, I learned that I wanted a metal-framed, hammer-fired, double-action pistol. The Beretta 92 and CZ-75 were the most popular, and I chose the CZ. I've never looked back. Again, I'm not a firearm hipster and I wasn't looking for something unique for a collection. I only own four pistols. I simply learned what I liked and CZ fit the bill.
Another friend of mine had been a Glock guy since the early 90s. He tried my CZ-75, sold his Glock 17, and immediately bought a CZ.
I have a CZ SP-01 that has been Cajunized. I love it so much, it is the only 9mm I have, and the only handgun that sometimes pushes my Glock 20 from its EDC role. I carry full size guns, but at 3 pounds loaded, the SP-01 is getting up there, even for me. But it has everything the Glock doesn't; the ergos, the trigger, and just so classy it is worth the weight.
Me too man. Cajunized SP01 is just such a beautiful gun, shoots better than my buddies HK’s and 1911’s
Been a CZ fan for a long time. Love my Shadow2 & looking forward to the compact.
Ah the CZ75 its kind of if you can't beat them join and make it better. Lets take the Browning High Power make it double/single action, give it two more rounds, get rid of the mag disconnect, and make it even nicer to hold and shoot. Thanks for the video and looking forward to more.
Browning hi poooower
Cz75 are 16 rounds standard
@@Swishersweetcigarilo Now they are but when they were first built it was 15.
@knightrider4545 hmm I didn't know that.
@@_hi_pwr the CZ higher power
I have owned many CZ pistols over the years and also many of the copies and have to say they are excellent pistols and one of my favorite double action hammer fired designs
Maybe the best intro monologue yet! Made me want to walk around a boushy coffee shop and peek at laptop screens to see how many were playing some kind of CZ videos.
I bought a used CZ75 P01 to test out and fell in love with it, then a used P07 and a used 2075 RAMI. Between the 3 I’ve put at least 3,000 through them in total, without one failure. P01 & P07 have been on rotation for EDC these past 2 years. Arguably some of the best I’ve ever carried. Waiting for a Shadow 2 compact!!!!
love the P-07 its an amazing value.
i hope you arent going to carry that shadow compact lol its not drop safe
@@weaponsgradepotatoYes it is. You're not supposed to decock the hammer all the way down. There's a half cock position. It ain't going off.
My first handgun was a CZ 75D PCR. I love it, absolutely fantastic little firearm that I trust with my life.
I own a CZ Compact. The PCR twin but with a manual safety instead of the PCR decocker. Love this weapon. Eats everything.
James, you get me. Love the humor. Some of your comments make me actually laugh out loud. Best channel on UA-cam.
Love my CZ-75 PCR with the cocobolo grips.
I love mine and it is still one of 3 guns I carry. The PCR is the top of the list if I am going out, with a Sig 229 40 S&W (1994 Production) as my winter Gun. I have to sometimes pack a Little 9mm and it is a Taurus G3C but I still have my wife and her CZ75 PCR in her bag. Great guns and I trust my life on them. Mine are 1998 productions.
@@dalezink7085 I'd have to swap out the wood grips for something way slimmer if I was to carry it.
Between a Glock 19 MOS and my CZ Shadow 2 (Urban Grey) I don't feel like I need any other handguns. The Shadow was the first gun I ever saw that made me go "I really want that someday".
Can't help but notice the gun power charging* a few times throughout the video. My 75 does that a lot too, glad to see it seems to be the norm cause power charging's just kinda cool.
* that _is_ the correct term, right? When your slide closes as you insert a new magazine?
ive yet to have a malfunction through a couple thousand rounds with my P-01. not even ammo related. great gun and looks sexier than a glock
Same
Yall shut up. If everyone knows how good they are they'll get even harder to get a hold of. Took me months to find an optics ready shadow 2 that wasn't marked up like crazy.
@@matthewsmcdill I can't wait to get my paws on the new Shadow 2 Compact.
@@latigomorgan I did until I realized it has the same aluminum frame as my p01 and is not just a compact shadow...
I have 2300 rounds through my P-01 and 3100 rounds through my SP01 Tactical. Still waiting to see any malfunction or stoppage from either. My 2075 RAMI consistently has a stoppage every ~500 rounds.🤷🏼♂️
My favorite thing about them is the grip. It just feels perfect.
I even prefer the factory rubber grip to the aftermarket G10 and wood grips for my P01.
My first handgun purchase was a CZ-75 while I was stationed in Berlin with the US Army. I loved it so much I bought a second one. I imported both when I came home to the US. They were the toughest and most reliable handguns I ever owned. While plowing the fields on the family farm, my brother who carried one while in the Sheriffs dept. He turned and it hooked on the seat of the tractor and fell from the holster and got plowed into the field. Took us many hours with metal detectors to find it. It still functioned perfectly. When I practiced my stoppage drills I would mix in spent casings into the magazine and it would even feed the empties. I just didn't like that the mags didn't drop free. And the front sites would fall out. Other than that it was perfection.
I really miss them, had to sell them due to family obligations at the time. I wish I could get another but on a limited budget now again due to family obligations.
I have an IMI Jericho 941 essentially a CZ 75 with a full dust cover and beretta 92 style decocker. Super reliable, heavy as hell and smooth as butter . The 75 design is dated in alot of ways I carry a Shadow Systems DR920P now but they are beautiful guns fun to shoot and heirlooms you can pass down
The CZ 75 SP-01 is one of my favorite guns, but I sold mine becase it was unreliable with some of the cheaper bulk ammo. I was shocked when it would malfunction regularly with the Remington UMC 9mm Brass 115-Grain Bucket O Bullets. That ammo runs just fine in my Glock, so I was really disappointed.
what did you expect thats some of the worst ammo out there
@@Evil_Joe I expected what's purported to be one of the most reliable guns in the world to be able to shoot any factory ammo. My Glock has no problem with that ammo.
I fell in love with cz because of their bolt action .22's. Heirloom quality is hard to come by anymore I feel like and they deliver it. I then did more looking into the brand and discovered their pistol lineup, my ccw is now a P01 omega.

Clint Smith at Thunder Ranch made fun of my CZ75 Spo1. I just smiled because it rocks. 20 K rounds, shooting cheap steel case russian ammo. Never failed me yet.
What did he say?
@@IrfanOmercic Something about a commie firearm. The fact that he noticed it and made a commit made me proud. Clint is a great guy. The kind of America needs more of.
The CZ-75 is a solid well-made, great shooting handgun that is just different enough to separate it from all others.
Hopefully this video encourages more holster makers to make more gear for it! Looking for sp 01 and PCR options made for the gun!
I own my CZ75 for 31 years now. Still reliable, still shooting well. I absolutely love it.
My first centerfire pistol was a Sar B6P CZ75 compact clone. It's a crudely built thing, but it had been extremely durable. I've even won a couple of pistol tournaments with it. Several years later, I sprung for a genuine CZ75 BD. Although the design and function are the same (and most of the parts appear to be interchangeable) the build quality on the CZ is fantastic. The CZ75 is as accurate and durable as any pistol could reasonably be.
Ah the hammer striker DA/SA action gun.... Gotta love James torturing and checking out the Czech CZ75.
Not really a double action
This convinced me not to do a sao conversion on my 75 compact. Great stuff! Thanks!
The assessment at the beginning was eerily accurate, I have had a 1911 for awhile and don't like glocks so I bought a cz75
I have a Springfield P9, it's a Tanfoglio TZ75 parts kit imported and assembled by Springfield. It is my favorite handgun. It is not only accurate but it's easy to shoot accurately with if that makes sense. I love that thing.
James, You Connoisseur of Fine Guns You! I generally yawn when I see another abuse test. I like CZs, I am too old and jarheadish to be a Hipster! But nice to see it performed well. Hope the trip to The Czech Republic (or whatever they are calling it now) was fun and productive. Keep up the good work, Ciao!
Yes sirrr, absolutely love the torture test videos. ❤️
I'm a 1911 guy. I was gifted a CZ-75. It's a Cold War commemorative edition, so it's actually made as a "Pre B" model, even though it's less than five years old. I love it. It's freaking accurate. I can shoot well with it at 20 yards all day long. It also makes a wonderful fidget.
Production quality..
With a mag flip... all on point.

Deep cut. Nice.
Is this slightly used CZ 75 for sale?
I've wanted a 75 for almost 2 decades since I first started shooting. I got one (P-01) about a year ago and it is phenomenal. I now have an SP-01 and desperately trying to find a RAMI. Fantastic design. More people should have listened to Jeff Coooper. Apparently, CZ has a reworked P-01 carry in the works. Give me a model thats drop safe, has a decocker, with optics cuts, and more aggressive slide cuts. I'll be happy.
James had me described perfectly. I shot glocks growing up and felt super confident they would be the only pistols in my collection. I started to want something else and knew I didnt want a 1911 so I picked up an SP01 at a shop and it just felt molded to my hand. Other than the trigger being mediocre for a hammer fired, the gun is by far my favorite pistol.
I have a CZ-75 Compact, my only regret is that I did not get a full size
I have both love both of them
Why did they stop making the Rami? It was the Glock 26 of the hammer world. The poly rami was a great idea and they stopped making that long before the 2075
CZ needs to make a new single stack all metal subcompact pistol with similar dimensions as the S&W shield.
I always like watching this guy. He’s like a kid from the old neighborhood, a wiseguy, funny and yet serious as a virus. His videos are always entertaining.
I bought a SP-01 tactical a few years ago and I've found to be extremely accurate and reliable. Mostly its the most comfortable and ergonomic pistol I've ever shot. My friends are also impressed with the ergonomics and accuracy of it.
CZ is my absolute favorite pistol manufacturer, followed by IWI and Beretta. It's hard to go wrong with a CZ and I recommend them to people every chance I get.
I used to be a young, angry, unreasonable man, too. Now im just older. Cz-75 is the mother fuckin heat though.
A test like this showing a Jericho dominating a sig 226 is what sold me years ago.
Paul Harrell test?
@@sheepherder911 no, it was some other channel that put a 226 against a jericho (expecting the sig to win) and was shocked that the jericho won. I can't seem to find the video on youtube anymore though.
I'm actually watching it from my toilet. BLESS
From my experience you can't throw a Glock around like that, the slide release lever always bends or breaks.
Except people have done it... many times.
@@Osprey1994 maybe they didn't throw theirs as hard or hit the right angle 🤷♂️
IME G21 and G19 both broke/bent levers but kept working albeit with loose trigger pins and no lockback when empty.
CZ75 B, the first pistol I bought myself as an adult. 24 years later I still own it and its still amazing. Smooth, reliable, and an awesome shooter.
I stumbled into a CZ75B because I was looking for a Hi Power after falling in love with one at the range. Long story short, the shopkeep convinced me, and I’m glad he did, because it’s my favorite pistol I own. Call me a hipster, but I love the 75 more then my WWI 1911.
I too love the hi power. I was trying to buy Springfield's SA-35 when it came out but could never find one. It seems that, years later, the SA-35 has either been discontinued and or STILL has reliability problems. I'm glad I went with the CZ75B instead.
@@svenneff I've heard the Girsan Hi Power clones aren't bad
Its like the Browning highpower! Never Let’s you down
Who wins, 75 or 226
IMHO, it’s a tie!
Idk I prefer the smaller slide on the cz 75 where when I shoot 226 just feels kinda clunky. The both are great pistols top tier combat handguns.
Yes.
I’m glad after 5 or 6 pain staking years, James has now been CZ’d since he made fun of it years ago on his overrated pistol test. Now I’m gonna wait another few years until he retracts his comments about the HK P7 and FN FNC
You are wrong there James. I’m in my PJ’s on my couch in front of a fan.
I am a group jumper as I have a 4 Glocks (17g5, 19g3, 34g4, 44), 4 CZ’s (10C, 10C Tactical, 10F, Shadow2), 3 M&P’s (1.0 9L, 2.0 5”, 1.0 Shield), HK VP9, Sig P226 Legion RXO & STI 1911 (Staccato)
My next purchase is probably going to be a CZ P01 to carry with my P10C
Everyone that I’ve let shoot my CZ 75BD is hesitant at first because it’s not a striker fired but then they all love it after they shoot it and come back to it again. It’s one of my pistols that I’ll never sell
I'm a CZ hipster and this video makes me happy.
Though, the young James experience might've been because they have such friggin stiff springs fresh from the factory it sometimes causes weird jams.
I have a CZ 75 SP-01 for the last year and a half. It is very reliable and great shooting gun. I'll be sticking with CZ products going forward.
I love every CZ I've ever owned. My 2 EDC guns are a P07 tactical and a shorty Bren2 that goes everywhere in my backpack. They just work and do everything you'd need.
My SP01 Shadow is, by far, my favorite pistol. It has liked me since the moment I test fired it. I even had a double charge kaboom in it and it came through completely unscathed. It was double charge of a light IDPA load, so that helped, but it was still enough to fire-form the entire case head into the feed ramp and required a vise and resin head hammer to disassemble. LIke pretty much any firearm, keeping it lubricated is more important than keeping it super clean, but what's the harm in doing both? :)
I just bought my second P09 , Just unbelievable !! for the money you can't beat them .
Browning HP, CZ 75, Beretta 92, Ruger P85, Sig Sauer P226 are to me the finest pistols ever made, for the times they were produced in and their relevance today aswell as being undeniably tough guns. I own several variation of all of them and they are definitely the top guns id never part with.
I really enjoyed this video on the CZ 75 i believe you could have gone even harder.
Hipster gun you say, i dont care what im called when a carry a cz, i know that tool wont let me down, and if im outa ammo they make great all steel hammers.
I'm a non-hipster late model boomer and I bought a CZ-75B and then I bought a used one and turned it into a .22 with the cadet kit. It really is the sweetest handgun I've ever fired and I've fired a lot. Also this video is only better because James isn't sporting his trademark shorty mcshort shorts.
It’s OK James, we CZ fanboys doubted your reliability in the beginning too.
10:27, James Reeves, the lawyer, definitely did NOT snort the Devil's Dandruff in law school or after passing the bar. ;)

Just have to make sure you stay up on maintenance with these and replace the trigger return spring and firing pin block roll pin before they break. My P01 is pretty great.
I have a CZ 75B and an SP-01 Tactical. Absolutely my favorite guns. Almost bought a Phantom back in 09’. They were on clearance and the salesman swore by it, but I bought an XDm instead, also a great gun. Few years later bought a slightly used CZ 75B, and never looked back.
I bought a brand new cz 75 pistol and have ran over 7500 flawless rounds thru it. I am obsessive over keeping it oiled lubricated and clean. It is so accurate ot makes even a novice shooter an expert. Only other gun ive had near as accurate is oddly a Taurus model 66 4.25 .357 mag
CZ 75 SP01 Tactical was my first CZ many years ago. I did a lot of research on this pistol and IT HAS PERFORMED. I have the HK‘s, the Berettas,the Glocks, the Smith & Western 2.0, etc. CZ is an excellent pistol period!! HK is super good make no mistake, but CZ is more accurate.
My first CZ comes courtesy of the Shadow 2 Compact, and after my first 150 rounds at the range I can already say it's MILES above any handgun I've owned over the years. Got some custom grips and a new mag release just to fit my hand better, but even stock, it's just a phenomenal experience to shoot and to hold. And that SA trigger is just godly.
3:07 you might have grown, but you still wear the shorts from when you were 7 😂
