While there's lots of info on the interwebs about CZ 75s, I want to get some experience about my CZ 75 Compacts out of my head and on a forum. Another CZ 75 forum online had lots of info, but it has been inactive for a few years so my request to join that one goes unanswered.
First some background, I currently own two CZ 75 Compacts in 9mm Luger. One is a two-tone and one is a PCR. I reload ammo, so in January, I bought a bunch of 9mm 115 grain coated bullets and what powder I could find to load up 2500 light-shooting rounds for plinking.
My lighter rounds lack the oomph to function reliably with CZ's standard 17lb recoil spring, so I ordered a 14lb reduced power recoil spring from gunsprings.com. These springs cost $7.89 + $3.99 shipping. The recoil spring also came with a standard firing pin spring, which will just sit in my spare parts bin. This Wolff spring site has lots of different weight springs for all types of firearms, by the way.
Now for plinking with my light reloads, I use the 14lb spring and defense ammo gets the standard spring. I've never had a failure of any kind on either of these pistols with factory ammo, by the way. Everyone in the family loves shooting them.
