I found a CZ75B at a LGS in 40 S&W. It is one of the painted finish guns, includes 2 mags and 1 may be original. Fixed sights, does not look to be shot much. The ask is $425+tax. Is that a reasonable price? Could not find any 40's on Gun Broker and I am curious.

I read that they are great cast bullet guns and I cast all of my 40's

Can't speak fo r the .40 cal but I really like my CZ75 BD in 9mm. Once Doug throated the barrel it is an excellent shooter with boolits. Be aware that this is a full size steel frame pistol which is great for me but others may not like the size and weight.

I love the size and weight, shoot lots of 1911's, EAA's and a DE. The pistol really feels good in the hand as well.

I had one of these pistols in 9mm, and given what I sold it for, the intervening time, and that (in my opinion) a .40 would be more desirable than a 9mm, I feel the price you mention isn't unreasonable. As a previous poster mentioned these are big bulky pistols. I feel their size is better suited to the .40 caliber round.

I used to have one of those and have only good things to say about it.

But I got rid of 40 altogether... too many calibers sort of piled up... had to choose. So I sold it and a couple of other 40s.

Whenever I see one I remember the one I had,it was a good,accurate,solid gun.

Sounds like a fair price. CZ pistols are great!

I'd buy it at that price, were I to get involved with another caliber. I like CZ's. They are big and heavy, but reliable and accurate.
