When Jeff Cooper was working up the design for his ideal sidearm (the Bren Ten), he based the design on the CZ-75. After the wall came down in the early 90s, the SAS rank and file wanted to replace their Browning Hi-Powers with the CZ-75B.

In my mind, those are two fairly heavy duty endorsements.

While I would not begrudge any person their choice of sidearm, and heavily encourage people to find what works best for them, my EOTW sidearm is a CZ-75B in .40 S&W. It fits my hands, has proven to be exceptionally reliable, accurate beyond any reasonable expectation, and built like a tank.

On more than one occasion, a SIG shooter has tried it out at the range and remarked to the effect that perhaps they had paid too much.

That’s cool. Full disclosure: I was a 1911 guy forever, I’ve now been a Glock guy for another forever. 8~)

I love my CZ 97. The lower bore axis really helps with muzzle flip
