Default Anyone here own a CZ75B handgun?

I've wanted one for years, and it will be my next purchase. I have literally never seen one bad thing about them and they've been around since the 70's. Just seeing what you people think if any of you have one.

Thread on here recently about them, I have one. Solid.

One failure to feed out of THOUSANDS (I am not joking, at least 3 cases of ammo fired through mine), and it was factory Winchester White Box that failed to feed. The round was out of spec.

I have neglected mine, not a safe queen for sure, and it works everytime. Had it for over 10 years.

They used to be the red-headed step child of the handgun pecking order and used to cost $299. A little later they were still $100 cheaper than Glocks (I bought one in 2005 on sale for $398).
They are reliable, but not dead simple like Glocks-
1) if you dry fire the crap out of one, the trigger reset spring will snap. there is an improved aftermarket part you should just go ahead and buy right away.
2) They don't reliably feed aluminum cased CCI Blazer ammo. No big deal on that...just don't use it.
