The CZ 75 is a semi-automatic handgun introduced in 1975 by Česká Zbrojovka in caliber 9mm Parabellum. Among the more notable features are its all steel construction, high capacity double column detachable magazine, hammer forged barrel and ergonomic grip. Later models of the CZ-75 introduced the firing pin block safety feature. Two other versions of this handgun exist, a "combat" version with an adjustable rear sight and special grip as well as a "compact" version with a short 4.0in- (52mm) long barrel. The CZ-75 was followed by the CZ-85. === Trivia === * The CZ-75 is well-known as the weapon of choice of Irene "Rally" Vincent in ''Gunsmith Cats''. ===See also=== * List of firearms ===External links=== * [http://www.czub.cz/ Ceska Zbrojovka official website] * [http://www.cz-usa.com/ CZ-USA official website] Semi-automatic pistols
The cz75 has evolved into a family of pistols, including compact and competition models. The CZ series is still made by the origonal CZ company plus Tanfoglio in Italy ( called witness ), but perhaps the most evolved model is the baby eagle of Magnum Research in Israel. Russian special forces are said to carry this pistol, and in the US, a famous proponent of the M1911 .45 Auto Col. Cooper advocated a version in 10mm which was called the bren ten. This is known as a 9mm luger / parabellum cartridge, but .40 S&W caliber and .45 ACP versions have been developed for the American market. Typically it is a steel frame pistol, double action origonally with a cocked and locked safety system ( Col. Cooper's attraction ) but now also has frame mounted decocker or a slide mounted decocker ( baby eagle ). CZ75 is credited with the design of the first firing pin safety device. Note: Col. Cooper's pet project, the Bren Ten was a cost-production failure, shortly after it's hollywood splash by being selected as the side arm of the lead actor in Miami Vice TV show. COl. Cooper now laments his involvement in the 10mm version, saying that he was just trying to obtain a flatter trajectory than the .45 ACP. ( The powerfull 10mm cartridges really hammered the pistols ) Cooper has retreated into his traditional insistance that a M1911 is his ideal combat pistol.
