Shoot it. I have ONE gun in the safe i will not fire. Its a 1947 Winchester 94. My grandfather purchased it new and never fired it. I won't be the first--atleast not now......

The rest get shot on a regular basis. Enjoy the craftmanship and accuracy of that CZ--Awesome Gun!!

The only CZ I have is a bi-color stainless frame black slide CZ85 combat. I'm a sucker for all stainless pistols. Times I looked at the catalogs and daydreamed of the concept of buying a cz-custom single-action fancified spensive CZ, most of those pistols are either all-black or bi-color.

A fella could buy an all-stainless CZ then pay cz-custom twice the retail price to remove half the parts and replace with other parts. And end up paying a lot more more than a "quasi-off-the-shelf" bi-color custom gun, just to get the same thing in all-stainless. A fella would have to want an all-stainless fancified guy a whole bunch to pay thru the nose for it, and wait til the shop got the work done.

So was wondering, why? One guess-- Most people prefer all-black or bi-color pistols? A competing guess-- Custom-machining would be more difficult to get a "clean looking" result working in stainless? But with black guns or at least black top-ends, all you have to do is re-paint em after the machining?

Am guessing it is just easier to paint parts after custom-machining, compared to customizing a stainless part so clean that it looks great without a fixup re-paint job after being machined?
