Blue Jacket Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I don't shoot production, but I did have an observation. I RO'd on one of the stages at the Buckeye Blast a few weeks ago and it seemed like the many production shooters were now using CZs. I still saw Glocks, M&Ps and XDs but they didn't seem to be in the majority. Are more people actually switching to CZs or did the Ohio Match just happen to have a greater number of shooters using them? Just curious as I am considering shooting some production later this year.

kneelingatlas Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Yes, a lot of the top guns are shooting CZs and Tanfoglios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent1k1 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 In central Florida, we have maybe 5 percent of the production shooters using Glocks or M&Ps. Virtually no XDs of any sort. I see CZ's and Tanfos all over the place (and this is including our local club) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gng4life Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Yes, it's the dominant pistol for Production. I heard something like 30% at the Production Nationals were CZ/EAA type pistols. I will see if I can find that again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Jacket Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 I really never paid attention before since I normally shoot limited. However, ROing you get to see what everyone shoots and I was just surprised that there were so many now. I am going to try one at our local 3 gun match this weekend.

open17 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Lot's more CZ's around here than there used to be. Still some Glocks, quite a few M&P's, and the latest toy for the cool kids seems to be SIG 320's that have been to visit Bruce Gray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtimelarry Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Your gonna start seeing a lot more Sig P320's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSwift Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Your gonna start seeing a lot more Sig P320's Yah, whatever. Heard that one before... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam B Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 We have a mix here in the midwest, primarily polymer guns with a few tanfos and czs. The biggest detractor to the p320 is the lack of aftermarket and the ability to work on it yourself. If they fix those 2 issues it should become more popular.

gose Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Your gonna start seeing a lot more Sig P320's Team SIG is only going to be that big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayougump Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I haven't taken the time to look but is the Sig X5 (I think that's the name) on the production list? The short demo I saw on YouTube seemed like it'd make a great production gun. Could be wrong but at first glance it seemed it would be a better gun than the P320. Again, I'm not a Sig expert though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMC Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 I shoot CZ exclusively now but I have to admit the Tanfo's are really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if they made a DA/SA model it looks like a good pistol to play in Production Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robb315 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 The model is the X5 All Around that is the production legal DA/SA gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeb10 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 O'the cycle of production wonderguns. Few years back it was the polymer striker lightweights, g34 and the MP9. Now its its heavyweight DA/SA guns, SP01 and Stock 2's. I am confident we will return cycle back within a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bockerSV Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 A guy at my club shoots the production model X5. Seems like a pretty cool gun to me, still has the classic sig super high bore axis all p226's are plagued with, but still a cool gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishsticks Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Did you happen to notice what holsters all these CZ shooters were using? Almost all blade tech in my neck of the woods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdyb Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Yes, majority of the people I shoot with in socal are using a cz or tangfo for production. I run a RLN Custom holster for my different SP01's. Glock 34 make up the rest with single PPQ or VP9 or XD here and there. Very few M&P that I see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nwhpfan Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 At the Oregon State match CZ was the most popular gun in the top 10. In fact, it might have had every place but 8 and 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGus Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 At a local match last weekend of the 10 people on my squad, 7 were shooting a CZ. There was an SP-01, a few SP-01 Shadows, and a few SP-01 Accu Shadows. I have been noticing more and more CZ's from last year to now. The CZ seems to be the most common Production gun in my area. I shoot an Accu and love it. I think the reason I see a lot of CZ's and only occasionally a Tanfo Stock 2 is because of availablity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9x45 Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 I hope that Bob Vogel doesn't find out about the CZ's. Not likely, he went from an STI to a Glock..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
