THE CZickness LII....Autumn or Fall? No matter...season is right for a CZ!

[Benp]

My first SGE was VERY overwhelming. The amount of stellar firearms there was amazing! Everyone was really nice and I was just hooked. This was back when H45 had some pistols.

For an opposing view...fish scales belong on fishes...not 1911 shaped objects.

A catfish would disagree.

Major mass shooting in Maine. Not good.

My first CM/AllenM 1911. Still a favorite.

That's a looker for sure. Would tree fiddy buy it? I have that much in my PP account.

Heck, I'll go all in and throw in a P-07 with the tree fiddy.

Count me in on the buy back if it goes that route.

 

[Ruger_Ronin]

umm...no....

Great! T-Dogg and I will be a long when you least expect it for a fully encompassed blanket hug. Thanks for participating!

(For T...dibs on big spoon)

 

[Ruger_Ronin]

Yeah, he had bought several of mine, I remember a custom Remington R1 1911 and my Brownells retro M16A1 that someone here still has I believe. The best time was when he and I and AllenM did the 1911 class.

I was really butthurt I had to work at the last minute and miss that. Gonna tell my boss he's a **** for old time sake. (He takes it well, lol)

Forgot to post my one fall photo few days ago. Shot straight up from the deck with a cell phone.

As a top 5 member,


BA, CM, and myself, and possibly Jagee all met at the same time. The first LT6 shoot, about 2013-14.

When BA started this thread, and the subsequent ones. My appearance was just to come say hi, and show my support to BA in his beloved CZickness.

The Wizard, started coming to our LT6 shoots, then Mouse and I started going up to Lafayette to shoot with those CZickos. Or vice versa…

Shooting with BA and The Wizard was overwhelming. Try this one, compare it to this one, now try this one. I’m a Glock guy. I shoot crappy triggers, and enjoy them. Think of CM dual wielding Glocks, and ripping his thumb off. My guns! That was the early days.

I had friends here, but I was no CZicko.

A few years go by, and I decide to buy a CZ. In the case is a CZ custom Shop Shadow, and a plain Jane SP01. I called BA about the Shadow I was about to buy, looking for his approval. He was like, “hell no! Get the the stock sp01, we’ll make it better than the Shadow.”

That SP01 is now the Blue Angel. I told CM, let’s make it so personal and gaudy that he can’t sell it.

He gave it back to me when his time had come.
I bought a pistol, but many in this group created a true legacy piece.

I moved to Texas, and probably won’t attend many more shoots. I still get invites, thanks guys!
I feel bad having this piece of our history, 1,000 miles away.

I text a member here several months back about buying it. He refused, because he didn’t feel he had first rights to it. He insisted I offer it to another member that he felt should have first rights to it. I agreed.

Radar, these aren’t just pistols to us, they are the legacies of our friends and families.

Wizard, when you want the Blue Angel, let me know.

Get in touch with me you're in box is full.

 

[llh1956]

That's what happened to me, the Wizard showed me a case full of CZ's to shoot, I actually picked a very worn looking 75 or 85 but the trigger was phenomenal.

That was BA's Beast, a sweaty Pre-B!

I held a S&W 1911 today. It was very nice but beyond what I wanted to spend. So light weight and felt so good in the hand.

I spied this posted from a certain LGS, sweet!

 

[Born2vette]

Sleep eludes me tonight, @MindfulMan I will not be seeing the sunrise today (unless I decide to just stay up).

Sounds like a tragic mental health breakdown.

Mouse told me on multiple occasions that you knew your **** when it came to 1911s.

Fond memories

Time for an epic pantless hi-way run! C-town to H-town!

 

[Hoosier45]

I remember mcapo’s first GTG. We kept shoving CZ after CZ in his hands. I think he was a bit overwhelmed. He ended up later with one of the first ones I stuck in his hands. In fact it was one I got from CM when I met him for the first time. Hoosier45 was there also as I recall. Snowing like crazy.

The Snowmageddon SGE at Pack’s. That would have been the day for the mosin shoot.

Just spent the better part of two hours unsubscribing to any and all emails.

Also read up on some HUD regulations.

Since neither put me to sleep, might as well get the day in motion.
