CZ 75B - 9x19mm; the current stock variant of the CZ 75 series.

History and Variants

The CZ 75 is a double-action semi-automatic handgun produced in the Czech Republic / Czechoslovakia. First produced in 1975, the CZ 75 quickly gained a reputation for reliability and excellent ergonomics as well as the unusual feature of having the slide run along the inside of the frame (similar to the SIG P210). The CZ 75 has undergone a series of changes throughout its history, resulting in a number of variants:

  • The "First Model" or "Short-railed" CZ 75, distinguishable by its shorter slide rails, rounded triggerguard, and horn hammer (produced from 1975 to 1979).
  • The "Pre-B" CZ 75 intended for export, identifiable by its full-length slide rails, rounded triggerguard, and horn hammer.
  • The CZ 75B, which is the current production model (first produced in 1992) and features an internal firing pin block (visible as a small hole in the slide just above the safety switch) and full-length slide rails. Most also have a no-reflection ridge along the top of the slide, a ring hammer, and a two-handed tiggerguard. Note that a few "Pre-B" CZ 75s have all of these features, but it is the lack the firing pin block that differentiates the B series. Conversely, some CZ 75Bs have "Pre-B" frames, and again should be differentiated by the firing pin block.
  • The CZ 75BD, same as the CZ 75B but with a decock lever in place of the safety switch.
  • The CZ 75SAO, Single-action only variant, notable by its match (straight) trigger, beavertail tang and enlarged safety switch.
  • The CZ 75 Compact with a shorter (3.8 inch) barrel, railed dustcover, and beavertail tang. These were introduced in 1993 during the transitional period when the CZ 75B began replacing the Pre-B model. As such, some CZ 75 Compacts do not possess the firing pin safety of the "B" models.
  • The CZ 85B, a CZ 75B with the safety and slidelock controls replicated on the right side of the frame for left-handed use.
  • The CZ 75 Automatic, a CZ 75 with full-auto fire capability. Distinguishable by the extended muzzle break and magazine-foregrip attachment.

CZ 75 "First Model"

"First Model" CZ 75 - 9x19mm. Produced from 1975 to 1979. This version is not likely to appear in any American made films as very few were imported to the U.S. A few have made their way into the hands of European movie armorers and it has become a common sight in Japanese anime after its prominence in Gunsmith Cats.

CZ 75 P-07 Duty

A compact polymer framed pistol originally derived from the CZ 75, that was so successful it was spun off into it's own category, the Polymer "Omega" series. It incorporates several ergonomic features originally used in the Sphinx series of handguns (which are themselves high end copies of the CZ 75). The original version featured a an ambidextrous decocker (which could be converted into a safety so that the pistol can be carried "cocked and locked" like a 1911) and a reversible magazine release button. The current production model, called the CZ P-07 (with the "duty" moniker dropped as well as the reference to 75 in the name) added interchangeable backstraps for different hand sizes. A full size variant, called the P-09, was introduced in 2013.
