CZ Evo3: Soon Marketed as Pistol in USA

[Excalibur]

It's not even spelled the same as the old one. This one is spelled Škorpion but the new one is spelled using English lettering. I cannot wait for the Evo to come to market. I wanted to get the POF5 but I am getting THIS.

 

[Tynimiller]

Ever since seeing Colin Noir's write up I've been wanting to get my hands on one of these bad boys!

 

[Excalibur]

I've already talked to my local gun shop and they are working their ass off trying to find out when is it available and I put a small down payment ahead of time to get in front of the line.

 

[IndyGunworks]

I got my name on the list at the local shop as well. and i am not normally one to jump into something like this.

 

[Excalibur]

I know, but damn I want this gun in my hands now!

 

[M67]

I know, but damn I want this gun in my hands now!

Sig has been teasing me saying my MPX will ship any day now


That's been going on for a while.

Anticipation build desire

 

[Excalibur]

I've been weighing on getting the new SIG brace or the Thordsen buffer tube cover

Honestly, I'd be a bit surprised if CZ raises their price. I'm sure all the dealers that get their hands on them first will jack up the prices sky high. But look at the KSG. Keltec initially was projecting MSRP at around $800. They were in super short demand at first, selling for over twice that. But now, you can find them right in that range (it didn't help that all the craziness happened and nearly every tacticool gun went way up in price).

If you wait long enough, I'll bet you can buy an EVO pistol for $800, which I might be tempted to do. Until then, I guess my MP5 SBR will have to be good enough.

The difference between Keltec and CZ-USA is lightyears though. Keltec is notorious for announcing a new gun and then not delivering. Think PMR-30, RFB, KSG, CMR-30. All of them missed the scheduled release date and supply has only recently caught up with demand. And only because the people who initially wanted them either got sick of waiting and got something different, gave up or paid twice the MSRP for one. I'm sure the Scorpion will be a huge hit for CZ and I anticipate a surge at first but I doubt CZ-USA would pull a Keltec and announce a product they weren't ready and able to sell by the truck loads. And barring another "man made disaster" I doubt we will see the madness like before.

Agreed. I doubt we'll see the production bottlenecks like the KSG had from a company like CZ-USA.

If you got an MP5 SBR...you really can't complain.

 

[Clay]

local shop has them on order and I'm on the list. I guess we shall see.

 

[jdmack79]

Do we have any idea when these will be released?

 

[Excalibur]

I just called my local shop and they can't tell me a thing about it but best guess is next month at least before they can get one.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

Guys, relax.

SHOT Show is yet to be. There is an expense account to bill, lap dances to buy and contracts to sign.

 

[rxer]

Guess I'll have to help fund they expenses.

 

[Roland of Gilead]

Would like one and if I can put a deposit down to get one...let me know

 

[mikefraz]

I don't know why, but I'd rather get the MPX, even with the price difference. The CZ just doesn't do anything for me. Wish I didn't have such expensive taste.

 

[BehindBlueI's]

I want one, but only in a different caliber. .45 or maybe .40.







You're welcome Kirk.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

You're welcome Kirk.

Well, it's about time someone said it.
