While I like to shoot the CZ better I think the Glock is a better choice for a competition gun. Glocks are simple, reliable, accurate enough, and the aftermarket is amazing. The CZ is also a great gun, but virtually no aftermarket . The other huge advantage for the Glock is a consistent trigger pull. I feel that a consistent trigger pull for all 10 shots is better than a DA pull followed by 9 crisp SA pulls. When you tune the trigger of the Glock the pull is VERY nice and as good as a stock CZ SA pull. The last big thing I can think of is magazines, Glock magazines are absolutely fantastic quality and very cheap. Getting good CZ magazines isn't as easy and they are a lot more expensive when you do find good ones.

I like the CZ more, and would take more pleasure in owning a CZ, but I think the Glock makes more sense.
