Hey guys, I've seen this gun posted in a few collections, but I've never seen a thread on it. I was wondering your opinions on the tristar S-120 (or L-120, canik 55, etc). It's a turkish clone of the cz 75 and all the reviews I've seen say it's a damn fine gun, even having a better finish than the original. Can anyone who owns one tell me a bit about it? Any pitfalls or issues that come over time? Seems hard to beat a CZ 75 with two 17 rd mec gar mags for $380. I've got the cash in hand for a CZ 75, but if I can save $200 and get a better finish, why would I not?

Also I know the grips are shit. I've already got replacements if I go this route

if you want to upgrade the gun(trigger job) buy the cz
if you plan to leave it as is settle for the canik
for awhile when the were 300 bucks there were hordes of canik supporters shilling them but they seem to have vanished completely. which is odd youd think at least one of them would have stuck around bragging about his 2k+ round count and how its still better than the cz for half the price

Yeah I didn't browse much when I was out of the country; I was surprised to see there weren't any posts about this thing. Just seems too good to be true

honestly all the glowing reviews on them scream this is my very first gun and i am easily impressed by anything
its an average gun but jut buy the cz if youve got the money its not like cz is expensive either

That was my concern. That this is babbys first wonder 9 and their only other handgun is a kel tec or something. I guess it's worth the extra money to never have to worry about quality.
But gunblast had a glowing article on it too and that made me think maybe that isn't the case

gunblast has a glowing review on everything

this is the pos that constantly malfunctioned was recalled twice than rem decided to retcon it out of existence

CZ it is

>>30085223
Key words are "pre production." The failure of the pistol was when remshit put it into mass production and qc fell off the chart.

thats 1 example but the gunblast guy loves every gun ever handed to him

Base model CZs are already affordable as fuck, I'd get one of those before a Turk clone.

He likes flocks and the sigma is a glock with SW on the side. Hence why Smith and Wesson has to pay glock royalties for each one sold.

That's why they stopped making the Smegma. The SV series is different enough to not require a royalty check to Glock.
