Thread: Cz vers 1911 vers glock

Not sure if this thread is a pissing contest or a genuine comparison but as I have a CZ85, a Glock 34 and a classic 1911 in 45 I personally prefer the CZ on the range, the 1911 for overall feel and satisfying hits on target (but not what they call in the states- "daily carry") and the Glock with a thirty round mag for just doing a mag dump

I reckon steel frame for target and poly frame for speed but hey, whatever floats your boat

Is this the firearm equivalent of Husky vs Stihl?

never owned a glock nor on of those CZ thingys every time I picked one up it felt like it was a toy and would break at any second :0

The CZ SP-01 would probably be one of the few all steel guns made these days.


Even my custom 2011 has a plastic trigger guard on it. But it is a practical move as it fits most styles of race holster without any cosmetic damage to the guard.


Must have been the weight of those mushy peas in the magazine that that gave it the toy feel.😆

Pretty sure it is all a big piss take mate.

I don't know enough about any of them to make a fair comparison even tho I have owned the guns concerned apart from a glock.

I will have a Glock 17 on my licence soon tho.
Will have to find a dark place in the safe to hide it😆

The army have opted for Glock so that says something about their reliability

I would happily own a G17 - they can feel a bit like gripping a 4x2 but they damn well work


I don't think that rifle shooters quite appreciate how short range pistols actually are, overall.

I was meaning std CZ75

No I'm not shooting major, i'd rather not put the extra stress on the gun parts, although they're designed for it it will increase wear on consumable parts. Although coming 4th Open in our last interclub made me wish for the couple of extra points from major

The czechmate is built on the larger TS frame, not the standard cz75 frame. This is not a shadow shooting major pf ammo, its a different beast. They have been known to break slide stops but they ship out with spares in the box. Parts availibility is what made me not go down that route, and it just didnt sit right in my hand with an optic on it. Other than that they are a nice gun, i have shot with a number of people using them and other than problems with the big stick in most i have seen, they seem to run reliably. I have seen numerous 2011s choke in my squads, and they mostly have all been built by the same place.

You should come shoot at our club.
Someone forgot to write times down for a rifle stage the other day so they picked the winner by points instead😆
