Good deal on CZ 75B?

I was looking around at a local dealers today and saw a NIB CZ 75B there for $399. It has one 10 round mag, and one 15 round mag with it. I have been looking around at the CZ's, and its the best price I have found in town so far, but I was wondering if there is a chance I can do better. Thanks in advance for any information.

Around my area, a CZ 75 B is between $379 and $399. I just bought a CZ 75 B today at my favorite gun shop for $389 with one 10 round and one 15 round mag.
You might try the on-line auctions?

I am starting to think for the money maybe the CZ-83 in .32.
This was if she hates it I am not out a ton of money.
Aside from one of the Colts in .380 or .32 I dont know if I will find a gun that will possibly recoil less. The CZ-83 in .32 caliber has a 3.8" barrel and weights 26 ounces.

Did you mean to post that last post in the thread you started about .380 pistols?

I got my CZ-75B Mil from CZ connection. He's got them for $315 (plus FFL transfer and shipping). He sells on Gunbroker.com too.

Where ever you get one from, make sure to ask how many mags you're getting. Many CZs only come with one mag when the dealer takes the other for individual sale.

$399.QQ is a little high. You can get them all over the net and shotgun news for around $325.00 or less, but throw in shipping and transfer fees...maybe $ 40.00 total and you are getting close.
If the dealer is great to you and everyone else in town....it would be a rough decision. I frequent stores locally and buy guns from them when I can....these guys are the best and its worth it to me to spend " a little" more. If I'm just looking for a smoking deal....
Gunsamerica or Shotgun news and a call to my father/ffl sets things rolling. But then again, I am spoiled
Shoot well

Even here in CA, the CZ-75 generally goes for around $300. Last week, the CZ-40b was on sale at Turner's for that much.

Destructo66,

Have your seen any CZ75Bs (not the CZ40) for $300 lately? I live in northern California, and I bought a bunch of full-sized high-cap magazines before the ban here (without having the pistol), so I've been planning to get a 75B for a couple of years. I did have a PCR that I like a lot, and it will accept the full-sized mags, but I always intended to get the full sized pistol as well. Anyway, I think the best prices I've seen on new 75Bs with one 10-round mag was $325, and that was one time at one table at a gun show. The more typical good prices I've seen were $340-360, and the past few months, the going rate seems to be closer to $400. At least at the stores and gun shows I've visited. I think a Turkish military overrun (or cancelled contract, or something) gave us a temporary glut of these pistols in the $340 range a year or so ago, but that seems to have dried up.

How about $400 w/4 hicaps?

If you wander over to CZForum's For Sale there is a used, pre-B CZ75 with 4 hicaps for sale.

Many people think that the pre-B CZ-75's are the best made CZ-75's, with smoother triggers and possibly better construction.
