I have a CZ problem. I have a problem because I literally cannot resist buying them. I have wanted to get into 2011s but I just shoot the CZs soooo well that I just can’t make the leap. I was going to order a Nighthawk Firehawk or Sandhawk but then I came across a new CZ Tactical Sport 2 Orange. Single action, bull barrel, great sights, CZ-75 reliability, superb accuracy. For me the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. The package creates this kind of synergy for me and, for reasons that I only mostly understand, I shoot them better, I think, than any other handgun I own. So now I have another one. I have other guns, I’ll buy other guns, I’ll even love other guns, but nothing is better for me than CZ Orange.

good pick! 2011’s are overrated with hit or miss mags. CZ mags are cheap and reliable. My shadow 2 is BOMB
 
Nope, I don’t even reload 9mm. Maybe I can beat the price of factory ammo a little bit but it’s not worth it to me. .38, .357, .44sp/mag, 5.56, 300BLK and .308, yes, worth it. But with 9mm at $.22/round I don’t swing it. Between my CZs and my Colt 9mm AR, I can go through 500 rounds in about 15 minutes, lol. If my daughter is with me, 5 minutes. That girl just hoses the target, giggling all the way. Love it.

but Custom Ammo for custom gun! you already know man!
 
I had to Czech out what all the fuss was about 1st hand. They are fantastic shooters! At 3.8lbs, I doubt I'll ever carry it but man does it shoot!

Love the CZ's.

Currently own a Ts2 and S2.

I prefer the CZ to similar 2011's. Might give an Atlas Nemesis an advantage gue to the sight block. But barely. (At a ridiculous $6000 ) Regular 2011's are no better than a TSO, just different.

For sure. Still thinking about the CZ’s cousin, the DWX. There’s still one in the case at my LGS. Should I? For the family? :)

Nope. Dwx has nothing on a TSO. Buy 7 cases of ammo instead.

If it's 9mm skip it. I'm holding out for a proper .40 from CZ or DW. If CZ doesn't pull it together, that's their problem.

A .40 Tso is listed on CZ's website. But I might hold out for a Czechmate 2 since I already have 2 CZ race guns.

Wonder if they'll ever update the 75b with a Hammer, S2 sights, and maybe a Commander option. Or a Commander S2. My hand doesn't fit on the compact CZ's any better than a Glock 23.

Excellent CZs all around!

Zero, how do you like the bogies? I’ve been thinking about black or grey grip panels on my “Oranges” and TS2. Sometimes there’s just a little too much color as they are. Notwithstanding the orange baseball cap!

I love my CZ’s, but they don’t come close to an Atlas. They also don’t come close to Phoenix AG, which uses the same basic design.

CZ’s are awesome for the money, but let’s keep it real.
