Talking AAAAHHHH-RRROOOOO!

I got mine too! Picked it up last weekend, haven't fired it yet (too much other crap going on at the moment, working a lot of O.T., for sure on Saturday, tho). I was a bit disturbed with the price ($439 new), hearing all over from folks who paid about $100 less - but I had been researching and asking dumb questions and driving all over creation for the last 3 months. So I felt it was time to just get out there one more time and make a decision. Originally was hot for the CZ75 P-01, but it's been hard to find, and the price tag was a tad out of my league for the time being (hence the O.T.). Only difference between yours and mine is that I replaced the factory grips with rubber. I tore it down, and cleaned and oiled it and shined it up, so it's good to go. Damn thing's calling to me already. I'm not exactly a newbie, but it's been a few years since I've logged some range time. Youngest is now grown and gone, and I wanted something more satisfying to do than bowling. Had to work on the wife for a bit, but she finally gave her blessing. Who knows - she may even like it too, but hey, one thing at a time. Good luck to you!
