Had my Cz85 Parked

Oldcarjunkie · Oct 19, 2012

I bought a Cz85 a while back and while i really liked it it was fairly ugly, anyway I ran into a buddy from high school who has been building some guns and doing his own parkerizing as well. So i had him do my pistol and a garand bolt i had laying around. Here is the pics of before and after. And if any of you are looking for something Parked, I can hook you up with him.
In these pics you can see the pitting on the left side and bluing loss on about 80% of the pistol.

Looks great!

Major improvement. Very Nice!

Just to add my $.02, I think some wood grips would really set it off.

Agreed, major improvement, and +1 on the wood grip panels - I suggest rosewood or pau ferro.

Very nice!

That looks soooooooo much better - and another +1 for wood grips.

Oldcarjunkie · Oct 20, 2012

Thanks guys and yeah ive already been looking for a set of wood grips i like and aren't 50+ for them. There is a few nice sets on ebay.

Oldcarjunkie · Oct 20, 2012

Thoughts?? I like the first and last the best myself

Grip 1

Grip 2

Grip 3

I really like this but i dont know if they will fit my 85Pre B, as i think the 75 and 85 are the same but the listing says 85 compact.. anyone know??

Do these fit ??...grips

Grip 1 looks like you might have to pay a tariff tax coming from over seas, I like them the best tho.

The only reason I mentioned it was that a few years ago I ordered a jacket for a friend on eBay from a Canadian seller, the jacket was like $50 and UPS wanted to charge me IIRC $25 for the tariff. So much for free trade. :innocent0

Im confused, How did they go about trying to get that? was it iin the shipping when you bought it? Wouldn't it be listed as part of the shipping from a seller? or Not?
