That's interesting, a few decades ago before CZUSA they were well in excess of $1,000 to $1,500 on the market.

Well, you better go run the price up some. I have Mouse's old 85 Combat so I don't feel the urge to blow the budget up.

I was of the understanding that the 85's went out of production 6-7 years ago due to some frame cracking on the right side around the safety.

Looking on CZ USA's site the Kadet kits have more than doubled since I bought this one.
I want to say it was $159.00 when I bought it.

Can't tell you when but the 85's have been out of the production for awhile. That one B2V linked is a 1987 transitional. Pretty slick ol' surplus gun.

If you are looking at a site with a new Kadet kit for $320 plus - you might be looking at a scam website?

Less than an hour left on that 85.

If it was a transitional.....

Looks like we may have a bidding war.

Here you go. Now you can run a depreciation schedule to determine how much it costs to use your guns. ;-)

LOL, I just looked and I never knew they built combat 85's back in the late 80's.
I watched the prices dump on the CZ's in the say late 90's
CZ's used to be hard to get, thats one of the reasons in have very few rd's through that 85 of mine.
Most of what I have bought in the last few years is to fill in so when the will is read its as fair as I can get it.

Were all the 85's "Combat" models?
I always thought the Combat 85's had the large adj rear sight.
