Charles Daly 1911 package,<br />

used = $505<br />

gun could just as easily be used in Production<br />

division. The CZ85 comes<br />

with an ambidextrous safety and the<br />

first shot can be fired DA. The gun cost<br />

$325.<br />

Four additional magazines from<br />

Cheaper than Dirt cost $70 with shipping.<br />

The double-stack magholders<br />

from Dillon work with the CZ magazines<br />

as well, so let's say they have to be<br />

acquired as well because you're a new<br />

shooter. If we buy the same Uncle<br />

Mike's gear as the 1911, but for the<br />

CZ, we have an additional $69 for a<br />

grand total of $464. For those of you<br />

who look into it, the SIG holster will<br />

work with the CZ, but there are also a<br />

P LaYlettkin"gitW<br />

number of other holsters<br />

available at reasonable<br />

prices.<br />

If you don't reload, then<br />

this last gun is especially<br />

appealing since many catalog<br />

order houses like Dillon,<br />

Cabella's and<br />

Cheaper than Dirt all sell<br />

surplus 9mm ammo<br />

cheap. It costs around<br />

$115/1000. Before I was set up<br />

to reload 9mm I bought a case of surplus<br />

Russian 9mm and it shot great out<br />

of this gun. This is my favorite gun for<br />

NRA Action Pistol, if I can get my<br />

grandson to let go of it long enough.<br />

How do the guns do in competition?<br />

Doug Koenig won the World<br />

Shoot with a full-race CZ-style Tanfoglio.<br />

Angus Hobdell placed second in<br />

Production at the USPSA nationals in<br />

each of the last two years with a CZ.<br />

The NTI has been won with a Glock<br />

21, and shooters like Armando Valdes<br />

and David Sevigny do very well with<br />

similar .40 caliber Glocics.<br />

One c.an easily add accessories to all<br />

three kits and run the bill up to $1000,<br />

but that is not the point. Here are<br />

three examples of great guns one can<br />

start with and stay with for years to<br />

come. The first gun complete and<br />

ready to play cost $598, the second<br />

$505, and the third $464. All cost a lot<br />

less than $1000. With these guns you<br />

can be competitive and have lots of<br />

fun. If you don't reload, use the savings<br />

for ammo, or better yet, get<br />

started reloading. I found a used Dillon<br />

Square Deal B on eBay for $175,<br />

but that's a subject for another article.<br />
