CZ 75 B trigger?

y Tanfoglio Stock's DA/SA trigger beats my CZ 75B trigger hands down; I do consider the Stock's trigger the best DA/SA trigger I've ever experienced.

All of my eaa da/sa triggers were literally off the chart da with over 12# pull.

Tuned diy, I've got one at 5.5# da and 1# 12 oz sa. The backup to it is 6.0# / 2# 1oz sa. It's intentionally higher in case of hard primers at a match.

Both pop cci, win and S&B primers n addition to federal.

The sa only Match has settled to 1# 6oz Sa, just with polishing.

Cz guns can be just as good or better based on the effort and skill of the tuner.
 
CZ used to make a model called The Champion.
It had the sweetest trigger on it this side of a High Standard.

You could at one time buy the Champion Trigger Group as a separate item & IIRC, it was all just a "drop in" replacement for the stock 75B trigger group.

It's been years since I ran across anything about that though.

Maybe someone with more knowledge (Walt?) can chime in about it.
 
My CZ-85C has the Champion sear installed. (I think that part might still be still available, under a different name -- perhaps the one used with the Czechmate model.) The trigger was a bit crisper on my 85C with that sear installed, but I never tried to get it super light or super crisp -- as that was a carry and home defense gun for a long time.

Cajun Gun Works developed an adjustable sear, some years back, which worked just as well -- but the aftermarket hammers seem to offer the same results.
 
I/m pretty sure they called it the trigger group.
But, I bow to your more in depth knowledge.

The CZ Champion I tried in a gun store would have been circa 1999 or so.
It was back when the CZ website had all the "cheesecake" & the Swedish Bikini Team were featured spokespeople....well...in a manner of speaking. They spoke little and just hung out a lot ;).
Nice gun - really nice gun.
The price was way up there though

I wasn't disputing your assertion that some shooters installed the CZ Champion trigger group in their standard CZs. Given that the Champion was based on the same frame as the 75 and 75B, that would suggest that nearly all parts were interchangeable.

I was simply noting that in my gun the stock sear had been upgraded with a Champion sear. While the basic guns were almost the same, the Champion got a lot of extra attention while it was built -- like the larger IPSC models get now.

My 85 Combat was my second CZ and I was new to the topic and CZ handguns at the time. Had I thought that the entire trigger group needed replacing/upgrading, I would probably have done THAT instead.

(My money and I were more easily parted back then; now that I'm retired, I tend to hang onto my cash a bit more stringently. ;) )

Didn't think that for a second Boss.
I know you have a much better background w/CZ's
 
I just reread my earlier comments. What I meant to (was trying to) say was that had I thought that replacing the whole assembly would have improved things, I might have done that too. But I was new to the topic and CZs, back then.

As I sort of implied, a fool and his money are easily parted... and I had more money available, back then. (sigh...)
 
I wish I'd have just gone ahead and picked up a Champion back when I first ran across one.
I only saw the one though & it was at a local dealer that was known to charge top dollar & then some when he thought he could get away with it.

When it comes to parting with money foolishly though ,,,,,,,,us ex-smokers have to win some kind of prize for that. :D:D

Keep your eyes open for a used 2000-series Sphinx. (The prices are going up on them, however.) I think you'll find the build-level close to the same. I've had two and they're great guns: marvelous triggers and wonderfully accurate.

The only reason I got rid of mine is that they had become safe queens -- too pretty to shoot. (Both of mine were high-gloss stainless, and every little blemish shows up as is often the case with high gloss guns.) The Sphinx SDP has a similar feel, and its more practical.
 
CZ 75 B trigger

Been gone for a while. Thanks for the additional info. Enough shooters both here and elsewhere have said they're able to get good accuracy with the stock trigger. I'm going to keep shooting it for at least another 500 rounds as is and see if I can too.
 
Walt,

Regarding your earlier comment about new CZ 75 B pistols coming from the factory with a solid firing pin retention pin. I just purchased a brand-new "16" dated CZ 75 B, the traditional safety model, and it still has the double roll pins. I use a runner o-ring over the firing pin when I dry fire.

I had heard -- from others -- that CZ had shifted to solid pins. (I haven't bought a NEW CZ in quite a while... So your experience clearly trumps my earlier comment. That said, I had not heard of problems with "doubled" roll pins.

(I actually prefer the roll pins, as they don't have to be staked to stay in place -- as solid pins sometimes do.)

At one time, I was told that CZ kept some components stored until time of shipment, and then dated the slides as they were prepared for shipment. THAT might account for this "difference," or it may be that this later comment is like the original one re. solid pins: not as accurate as we might like.
 
Any 2015 or 2016 marked CZs I've bought had roll pins. The same is true for those in the cases at the stores near me.
