I think Lazi is a CZ fan.

CZ is a historically well thought of manufacturer of firearms. The WW2 German military was the most technologically advanced in many regards, and were keen to "acquire" CZ's manufacturing capabilities.
I've owned many CZ firearms and with the exception of the CZ27 (32Acp handgun that broke two safeties and rusted if I looked at it) I had in grade school they have all been interesting if not exceptional arms.
ETA: I wasn't particularly fond of the CZ52 either.

I am seriously becoming a CZ fan.
While I only own one CZ firearm the more I handle them and check them out online the more I think they are a solid brand to stick with. The prices aren't extremely high and while they aren't cheap I think you get a quality firearm for your money.
I like a DA/SA pistol and I just like to see a hammer and a safety on my handguns for some reason. I was leaning towards FNH firearms for a long time but they made a few more changes to their line up than I care for. I also think I'd rather have metal and wood for my "go to" firearms. CZ seems to be the one company that offers most of my current preferences across their product line.

I've never fired a CZ, and I've only ever handled one. It was a 75 and I was very impressed by the feel and build quality. I can see why they have such a strong following.

I remember back when the CZ75 was THE pistol! Course this was before many of you were born, or at least you were still in diapers, ya young pups.

Yes, it beat me by two years.
What was it like when the 1911 came out?

Really? I can't imagine the 1911 would be anywhere near as loud as your Howdah.

Sorry about that but I had beans for supper and a bunch of eggs for breakfast. I couldn't help it, it just slipped out.  You know what they say about Beans beans the musical fruit...
