Started this journey of gun ownership almost a year and a half ago. During my initial research, had a lot of folks pointing me to a Glock 19 to start as a “do it all” pistol to learn on.
As I continued to research, I ended up deciding on the Shadow 2 Compact that led me down this CZ related rabbit hole. As I continued to learn, of course the itch grew to add something else. I’m a larger guy with big hands, so I started looking at full sized pistols to continue to learn on, preferably with the same ergonomics as the S2C. Ended up deciding on the full sized DWX to also get a taste of the 1911 world. What a great gun the DWX is, it might still be my favorite to shoot of the bunch.
Next up was adding a revolver to the collection. Decided on the Colt Python Combat Elite. I’d be lying if I said the CZ affiliation with Colt didn’t influence my decision.
The 4th CZ related pistol is the Tanfoglio Stock Master chambered in 10mm with a full Patriot Defense trigger job and some other mods. Same CZ 75 ergonomics as the other two semis.
Lastly, and the only odd duck is the Atlas Apollo. The DWX opened that Pandora’s box as I knew I eventually wanted a higher end 2011. Found one in stock and made a rather impulsive purchase.
That’s it for now and for a while, now it’s all about rounds down range and training. Never thought I’d go down this path after initially considering a G19, but glad I did.
