I know my chances of success are ultra low here. But CZ-USA is being pretty useless, and can’t find parts for their own guns. Hoping someone can help.
About 6 weeks ago, I bought a CZ TS2. This is an entry-level competition 9MM. Total pleasure to shoot, heavy as hell, soft recoil, outstanding trigger. I was looking for something like this, but wanted it to be capable of getting optics mounted. This gun isn’t, but there’s a very reputable machine shop that can modify it for that. Anyway, I’ve got a soft spot for CZ (I own two Dan Wessons, and have always wanted a CZ-75 variant. So, I bought this.
After that initial few boxes of shells, I tore it down, and sent the slide off along with an optic to get machined.
The post office lost it. Yep, I’m a dumbass, and didn’t even insure it properly. So I was preparing to get hosed. But CZ is telling me they can’t get a new slide at any price. Effectively, my options are to buy a new competition slide from the one company that makes them (total of about $1300) or buy a new pistol (used price of about $1300) and roll the dice again that maybe it also gets turned into a paperweight during the mailing process.
In other words, I don’t see how CZ can enjoy their reputation if they make no spare parts. Their rep told me they can only get replacement slides for striker-fired weapons, not for external hammer models.
Anyone have any way they can help here? Can’t imagine what that would be, but wanted to ask.
CZ-USA seems to have almost no social media presence to harass, BTW.
