Harvey,
i was stationed in Berlin from 1988 to 1993. Yes I have replaced those firearms many times over. I have a decent collection but not great. I have Sigs, Glocks and H&K's but I have to say that my latest aquisition is by far my favorite and not in the least expensive. I just got two CZ Clones and must say for the price of less than $350 I am pleased. one is a Sarsilmaz Kama 9mm that out shoots all my pricey handguns hands down. I was walking with the wife on the pasture trying to find the water moccasin that bit our horses nose and it actually slithered between my legs hauling booty to get to the pond. I jumped into the air and drew the Kama. I aimed at its head and fired twice. Both hollow points hit the snakes head and it was inches from the waters edge. i have NEVER had a weapon shoot so good both weapons are made in Turkey. The other is a newer acquisition and I have yet to get it to the range. It is a Camik C100. It's a compact version of the CZ 75 and from the feel of it I didn't think I'm going to be let down by it at all. In all I spent 15 years in the Army and on 9/11/2001 was injured at the Pentagon rescuing dying and lost personnel. I was a Combat Medic at the time And was stationed in the Pentagons Di Lorenzo Tri Cre Health Clinic. Thanks for the mail Harvey. I look forward to discussing other weapons with you as well. I'm an avid shooter and love guns very much. There's not much I don't know about fire arms. I was also law enforcement for quite some time. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Daniel: Welcome to the Forum, and many thanks for verifying the CZ75 importation by GIs. When were you stationed in Germany? I think you got a pretty good price for your CZ, maybe even better than you could get today. I think only a collector of CZs would pay a premium for an early CZ75, although we do have a CZ fan here who bought an early one, IIRC. Maybe he (Eric) can comment? I know the feeling of being offered a lot of money for a favored firearm, and can certainly relate to your accepting the offer. Did you replace the CZ with another pistol? Same with the PP? Now that you've posted on the Forum, can you tell us what your firearms interests are these days? We're pretty friendly and relaxed here and welcome new members. If you have comments or questions, please let us hear from you. Harvey |
