The new CZ 75 Legend repeats the same slab-sided Iron Curtain aesthetic while keeping the pistol’s internals and features modern, including a 16+1 round magazine, making it essentially a “post-B” gun in a “pre-B” body.

The new Legend compared to SN 00001, which we saw in 2024 in the Czech Republic.

The Bundeswehr Pistole 13​

One of the big stories from late last year was that the German military (Bundeswehr) had selected the CZ P-10 pistol after it beat out a number of contenders to become the country’s new P13 sidearm.

CZ had the new P13 on hand at their booth last week.

CZ 457 Target​

CZ 457 rifles are known for their superb accuracy, but the new 457 Target, a fully adjustable, ISSF 3-Position competition-ready aluminum chassis co-developed with four-time American Olympic shooter Matt Emmons, raises that bar.

It includes a three-axis-adjustable pistol grip available in three different sizes, a side-tiltable buttstock with a five-axis-adjustable buttpad, along with a three-axis-adjustable, two-sided cheekpiece; and a forehand riser can be adjusted in three different axes. A 26-inch 12-groove .22 cold hammer-forged match barrel equipped with a diffuser is standard as is an adjustable 2-stage Flyweight trigger.

Shadow 2 Carry is the only CZ I’ve owned, however, based on that sample of 1, I wouldn’t hesitate to get another CZ if something interested me. These three do not - first is fugly, other is a striker I think (I now stick to hammer fired SAO; DA/SA), and I am not sure what that rifle would do for me 😂.

Now I have owned a few Dan Wessons over the years, but are they really CZ?

CZ owns Dan Wesson & Colt.

Just to educate...

The first is the classic CZ75, and excellent pistol and you Shadow 2 uses the same mags the original CZ75,

The P-10C is an excellent pistol not matter what color it (striker-fired) is,

lastly the new 457 Target is a 3/4-position (prone/standing/offhand = 3, + sitting =4) .22 lr. match rifle and a serious match discipline. You're likely not in that category.

CZ has a long history of building great bolt-action .22 lr. rifles (hunting/recreational) and now match.
