Wow. === I know someone with a custom CZ very similar to the one Harree claims to have owned. It's very reliable and accurate. I'm sure it is. I was simply making a point to Harree. 'Problem with Kimber' in You Tube gets "About 8,590 results" compared to "About 861,000 results" for 'problem with CZ' That's quite startling! Yeah, the 8500 Kimber hits have to do with problems with Kimber firearms. Almost all the 851,000 results you cited for CZ have nothing to do with CZ firearms. Hell, all guns can have a problem. My Ithaca Mdl 37 20ga jammed first time out pheasant hunting. Had a small piece of metal from the machining stuck in the action. Do not know where it was hiding, as I cleaned shotgun after buying. Then the worse POS I still have is a Remington semiauto 30.06. Is known as the jam-o-matic. I haven't had any serious issues with any of the firearms I've owned. I did have a short-term issue with my Mini 14 going into a sort of autofire mode, but I fixed that with a couple of turns of a trigger adjustment screw I had installed. I'm not a fan of the "1911" model or the .45 ACP ammo. The typical .357 MAG round is more of a stopper when you need it, and you can fire .38 Special rounds in a .357 MAG revolver. ..45 is better in most situations. The 357 goes through the perp, couple walls and kills or injure someone a long ways away. .45 has lots of knock down power and will not travel a long ways. Best on a 357 for defense is hollow base wad cutters loaded base out. Super hollow point. Friend was a cop and shot at a robber and the shot upwards so would not hit any cars on highway 101. About a mile later went through the sheet metal wall and hit a women in the neck. She was injured but not killed. He has flash backs every time he goes by the building. |

I use Hornady Critical Defense ammo in my .357 MAG revolver, six in the cylinder and six in this speed loader: http://tinyurl.com/z5qjpxq Here's a vid on the ammo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTWFbuzX-l8 I've shot a few of these rounds for practice, but when I shoot targets, I use far less expensive ammo. The Hornady is about twice as much as my ball practice ammo. More info: http://www.hornady.com/store/critical_defense/ |

Some people can afford to have both and enjoy some variety at the range. BTW - .45 ACP ammo doesn't exist. It's .45 Auto. |

Almost all the 851,000 results you cited for CZ have nothing to do with CZ firearms. What is an example of the problems. My neighbor is a Kimber guy, he has several and I never hear a bad word about them. So far, Krause is the only one I've heard bad words from. Of course that's 'cause he doesn't own one and I do. Have you ever heard him say something nice about another's possession? Hell, he wouldn't even compliment his BFF's brand new Bayliner! I like the new Ruger Mark IV, but I wouldn't pick the heavy model without a threaded barrel. The breakdown mechanism sure is an improvement. That's a random response to this thread. Did you consider starting a new one or not posting at all? |

Just about any center fire pistol shooting hard ball ammo will shoot through both sides of an aluminum siding house if it doesn't hit a 2x4 or something else solid. |

Oh, then I suppose this seller and many other sellers of .45 ACP ammo are providing non-existent ammo: https://www.ammunitiondepot.com/310-45-acp If I wanted a 1911 clone that fired .45 ACP, I'd get one. I don't like the pistols or the rounds much. The.357 MAGs hit harder in self-defense situations. If I were interested in the .45 ACP round, though, I'd consider a dual load .45 revolver, like this Ruger Redhawk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfcWPOecspQ |
