While the CZ75 B SA appears to be out of production, several outlets appear to have them in stock (Bud's and Cheaper Than Dirt). However, they're shown as "10+1".

  1. Is this to cater to woke states or is there some actual design difference that prevents the use of normal CZ75B magazines?
  2. Are the SA conversion parts still available?
  3. Is there any real functional difference between a factory stock CZ75 B SA and a converted gun?

This gun would be purchased in lieu of a Browning Hi Power, so double action is unnecessary and completely unwanted.
 
I own a bunch of CZs, but no single action versions. Always thought about one, but couldn’t convince myself to buy one. I’ve shot a customized version and the trigger was great. As to your questions

There are no functional differences between 10 round and the 16 round mags and the pistol will work with either.

I would bet parts will be readily available for some time. CZ Custom and Cajun Gun Works do lots of business if CZ doesn’t carry parts down the road.

I read the other day some gunsmiths have stopped doing conversions. Don’t know if it’s true or not.
 
This version is perfect for sport shooting.

Yes it is. And Cajun did a nice job finishing it off with their trigger and bushing. I did change grips to get it a little fatter and more grippy. Except when I get nostalgic and pull out the 1911, it’s what I use for sport shooting.

Discontinued 2018. The CZ 75 B SA (single action) is identical to the CZ 75 B in all aspects except that it has a single action trigger mechanism. The trigger is a straight blade type and is adjustable for overtravel. This version is perfect for sport shooting.

The 75B SA has a few differences from the 75B. The beaver tails are different and the SA does not have the Hi-Power cuts on the front of the slide.
When I bought mine a few years ago I was going to get the SA but I found a good deal on 75B Cold War and got it instead.
I changed triggers and worked over some parts and removed the disconnector and made mine a single action. The original trigger pull was awful, but it now has a crisp 4# pull.

Actually that isn't true. The SA version has a different frame than the standard black 75b. The 75sa has a different beavertail . It also has larger safeties. The slide is different and a little heavier on the SA.

Well tell CZ then. I didn't write it.
 
Is the trigger reach on the SA closer to the DA or SA of the regular 75B and how much difference does the flat trigger make in that regard?
 
75 SA trigger reach is closer to the DA/SA trigger when the DA/SA gun is cocked. I find that the flat triggers are nice for shooting.

I don't have a factory SA, but I've converted my 85 Combat to SA only using Cajun parts that include their UltraLite Kit, Cajun SAO trigger (which has both pre-travel and over-travel adjustment), and Race Hammer Kit (virtually eliminates the camming-back of the hammer in SA), and also a CZ Pre-B short reset (a factory part that drops into non-firing-pin-block guns like the 85 Combat; Cajun makes a short reset for the other guns that can't use the factory pre-B short reset). The resulting trigger is awesome, has a better pull an narrower operating range than the factory competition guns IME. The trigger pull is light and operates fore-and-aft within the thickness of the trigger (see below for the thickness of the trigger). People familiar with the CZ factory triggers will recognize that as a huge difference. Converting to SAO with some accompanying Cajun parts will cost more, but will put the trigger another level (or three) above the factory 75 SA if you are interested -- it'll get it into the territory of a nice 1911 trigger.

I can't manage to leave any of my CZs stock. They all get some Cajun parts soon after arrival. :)

I would definitely get one if I were you. (I do have one) They are very nice. If you decide to have it worked on it will be even better. The build is solid and will last, and people like CZs so I doubt you would have a huge issue if you decided to sell it.

I admit I jazzed mine up with adjustable sights through Cajun Gun Works. It was still a darn good gun before I had them do anything to it, and now it is perfect.
 
The SA version has some nice touches that aren't easy to replicate, plus some that are.

The beavertail, slide and larger safeties are nice to have, the flat SA trigger being the most apparent difference.

It's the same, slight stacking, decent trigger pull from the DA/SA guns, but without a DA. It does have an over travel screw, and a pre-travel set screw could certainly be added.

I like mine very much. I keep debating on tuning it up or just keep enjoying it for what it is. A very good shooting service handgun.

FullSizeR (1).jpg I just got a new CZ75b Single Action. It has the high capacity mags and the safety levers are different .
