CZ 85

The CZ 85 is a double-action semi-automatic pistol based on the CZ 75 formerly manufactured in Czechoslovakia (now the Czech Republic) by Česká Zbrojovka.

Description
The CZ 85 is an updated version of the CZ 75, with slight changes made to internal parts to increase reliability. It has an ambidextrous safety switch and slide stop, making the pistol suitable for both right- and left-handed shooters. CZ weapons are known for their long service life and high reliability while using various types of cartridges.

The CZ 85 was developed because the CZ 75 had no patents protecting the design, and the CZ 75 was copied in other countries with unlicensed versions.

The CZ 85B is an up-to-date version with a firing pin block safety, squared off trigger guard, a ring hammer, and tri-dot sights. It is available in 9×19mm and .40 S&W calibers. The 9mm magazines hold 16 rounds and the .40 magazines hold 10.
