Question for CZ experts

[spec4]

Thinking of a CZ 2075 RAMI to replace my house gun (Beretta FS92) and carry gun (SIG P238). Which is better, the standard safety or the BD model with the decocker? I like the decocker function on my FS92 but could live without it. Any other comments on the CZ 2075 would be appreciated/

Curious as to why you wouldn't go with a full size 75/more rounds for the house gun? My RAMI is in .40 w/o the decocker. I'm used to the idea of a safety and a single action first shot.
You might be better off with the decocker if it is what you're used to.

The RAMI is an excellent choice. It is, to me, the most accurate short-barreled gun I have ever tried. As to the safety/decocker decision, it depends on whether you like to carry cocked and locked. If you do then that is the way to go. If not, I would probably go with the decocker. The safety on the RAMI, like all CZs, only works when the hammer is cocked.

The Rami is one of the best subcompacts I've ever shot. Very nice gun and very accurate. It comes stock with one 10 round and one 14 round magazine and I believe you can buy mags that offer even more capacity. I personally liked the decocker over the safety, as I didn't really care for the safety. I didn't feel that it was easy to take it on safe when drawing from the holster, while the decocker makes that moot. On top of how great a stock Rami is, you can get the parts for a CGW pro package installed and make it an awesome gun. I sold my Rami because it didn't really have a necessary place in my arsenal, but I'll admit that I miss that gun every day.

I have run my RAMI with a 26 round magazine, no problems.

What's wrong with the guns you already have? The P238 is based off of a 1911 and has (or can have) a VERY nice trigger. The FS92 is also a very good choice for a house gun. I'm just not sure what a CZ Rami is going to do that your current firearms can't do. I'm a big proponent of CZ's, but if you're already comfortable with your current guns, why change? Do you not like something about them? Just looking for something new?

When I was looking to buy mine I wanted the decocker, but couldn't locate one. The safety version works just as well if you don't mind lowering the hammer to half cock and carrying that way.

Thanx for that. I never knew.

Thanx for that. I never knew.

I carry mine often, either as primary or BUG, with a 14 round mag and two 19s as backup. They run just fine.

I presume that your Beretta doesn't have a light rail on it?

Because for a "house gun" / night stand gun... No way I'd trade a Beretta 92 for a CZ RAMI.

I may be wrong, but I think the intent is a gun that doubles as both HD and carry weapon. While the 92 is a great gun for HD, it's not as easy to carry a full size gun as a subcompact like the Rami. Again, just inferring from his post.

While the RAMI might not be my first choice for HD, I would make that trade any day. To each his own.

And that's the problem. He currently has 2 guns that are VERY nice and capable guns. One for each purpose (home and carry). Why in the world would anyone recommend he sell those to buy a single gun that compromises in the HD purpose?

Why do you think it is a compromise vs. a Beretta 92?

 

[lovemachine]

It would be better to keep the beretta and sig. And just save up or sell something else for the CZ.

It's a smart idea to have a HD gun AND a carry gun.

I think he's saying a single gun that works for both HD and carry is a compromise. A back up is smart.

To me, I'm not a fan of .380, even though the P238 is the best of that caliber in my mind. I'd much rather carry 9mm. Anyone who has no problem with the .380 round, I'd recommend the P238 as it's reliable and pretty much disappears when you carry it.

 

[Birds Away]

I agree that a backup is advisable. Every handgun is a compromise.

 

[Birds Away]

I can't support a .380 for carry.

 

[seedubs1]

This would be a good reason. In which case, maybe he should consider getting rid of the P238 and getting something in 9mm to carry. But no way would I trade a full size handgun for HD purposes for a Rami (unless the full size is junk, which a fs92 certainly is not).
