Pre-B, One at a Time

The CZ 75 rewrote the service-pistol formula in 1975; ten years on, the CZ 85 made it ambidextrous. The pre-B pistols — spur hammers, short frame rails, no firing-pin block — are the configuration collectors chase.

These come through the shop one pistol at a time, each graded and photographed as the exact gun on the listing. When one sells, it’s gone — the model links below cover the rest of the case.
