Basically anywhere from mount belview to katy,galveston to conroe

My son wants me to buy one so he can borrow to use for IDPA

I know the academy sports jn league city has plenty of them, probably all the academy's have them in houston john

Your son has good taste.

Is he wanting one of the SA models specifically, or will he consider a traditional DA model?

JLaw

I'm thinkin' seriously of a CZ. Would LOVE a SA only one because of what I hear might be a little better trigger. The stainless one catches my eye but it's DA/SA.

Jeremae, you didn't say WHERE (are the best prices on CZ from here...to there) in your initial post. So, color me frustrated! What have you found...and WHERE?

Here are three places listed by CZ


Carter's Country #2, 8927 Katy Freeway, Houston, TX, 77024
Phone: 713-461-1844
Collector Firearms Inc, 3301 Fondren #O, Houston, TX, 77063
Phone: 713-781-5812
Fountain Firearms Inc, 9478 Hwy 6 South, Houston, TX, 77083
Phone: 281-561-8447

Try Academy also. John

I had a really pleasant email convo with some guys from fountain firearms.

I was asking about a gun on gunbroker.com and they were very helpful though a sale didn't work out.

Thanks! Also know that Tomball Pawn & Jewelry has 'em and will order specific ones. Price on the stainless is $450.

My Acad. had only one (the blued version 75B) and they never know when others will come it.

Appreciate the phone numbers. I'll try a couple of 'em. Thanks!

I had already talked to the four shops listed on CZ USA site, carter's, fountain and tripod feeders in spring would have to order and wanted around $500 to $520 for SA.

Collector's has one in stock and want's $499.

Didn't know academy carried CZ....

Will post when I find best bargain.

He is pushing to get one listed at $440 on gunbroker but I explained that is basically same price when you add in shipping and ffl transfer and unless BIG discount I would prefer to spend locally.

we're looking for the SA because of the free fall mag, I think it would be better for IDPA... maybe I'm wrong

As for him having good taste, even though he shoots my 1911 as good as I do he wanted a 9mm ,not a 1911 9mm, no tupper ware or italians and thinks browning high powers are ugly (which endeared him to his mom who thinks the bhp is the prettiest gun)

WHICH SA did Collector's have?

the 9mm....

Academy near willowbrook mall on 1960 just said they have 1 as well for $403

sorry didn't ask about 40.

phone number is (281) 894 6015

Terrible Service + Terrible Prices = Fountain Firearms

I was quoted $620 cash price on a brand new XD-45 Service and $699 for a brand new Mini-14 a month ago. I asked if the salesman was joking and he replied rudely with "absolutely not!"

I walked right out. Won't be going back.

That much? I paid a couple bucks over $400 at one of the gun shows at George R. Brown about a year ago for an SA, NIB.

Thanks, Jeremae. I remember seeing the CZ @ Academy. Actually fondled on there as a matter of fact...quite a while back At any rate, I ended up gettin' the M&P 9mm. Added a sweet trigger job (3.5 lbs) and a fiber optic front sight and it's quite a shooter! That CZ, however, still 'feels' really nice!

Even checked into the trigger job for it. The waiting list is REALLY long (as in many, MANY months) so...For the time being, I think I'll call my thirst quenched? But one of these days...

Jeremae.
Don't worry about the mag brake on a 75B.
It can be made to"free fall" in about 10 minutes and a Thank You.
The 75B can be used in SSP or ESP, and a 15lb hammer spring
will make a very nice DA/SA trigger.
If you get it, let me know and we'll fix it.
