Gaerek, we disagree on two points.

First, the CZ75 compact is right up there with the best carry pistols. I have a couple P01 variants, myself. Quite a few shooters think the CZ family point better, and have better general ergonomics, than most of the currently popular carry guns.

Second, 1000 rounds may be a lot for some people, but it is not a lot for others.

I shoot IDPA typically twice a month. That's 200-250 rounds, without ANY practice sessions. Add one or two practice sessions per week, at 200-300 rounds per session, and call that an average of 1500 rounds a month in practice, or 1750 net rounds.

Most people don't shoot that much. I know many people who shoot at least that, and quite a few who shoot significantly more.

FWIW, the CZ P01 is my normal IDPA pistol, too, and it does well for me.

Edit: Another advantage to the CZ - Kadet conversion kits, which allow the CZ75 owner to shoot .22LR for practice if so desired.
