sold mine wish I had it back

Have owned bot TT and CZ the CZ is a much better gun, but you need to invest in a slide release which is cheap and easy to install and a new firing pin, the factory unit is the only cast part on the gun. S&B is great ammo and reliable but only avail in FMJ. It runs perfect though. This is the SKS of handguns, the undisputed most bang for the buck. I don't know that I would carry it as my main gun but huge fun factor with this on!

I'm in that boat!

Sold it to a buddy and his father pistol-napped it. Getting it back isn't going to ever happen.

Greater muzzle velocity, but smaller and lighter bullets. On average, it provides 10% more kinetic energy, but 24% less momentum on target.

If you need a military pistol capable of penetrating light body armor, however...

The copper-jacketed steel rounds capable of doing this are illegal here in the U.S.


Level 3 kevlar will be easily broken by a x25 lead core FMJ, and a large number of other bottle neck FMJ rounds. Level 4 armor will easily stop a 308 with a hardened steel penetrator spike.

It's an issue with way too many misconceptions thanks to stupid movies from the 80s. Kind of like "porcelain" glocks.
