What were the ergonomic impressions of the CZ 75 B during the drill?

The shooter praised the CZ 75 B's 1911-style safety placement and overall ergonomics, finding the pistol very natural to point. Despite a lack of 'real estate' on the slide for manipulation, the grip and handling were considered positive.

Did the CZ 75 B experience any malfunctions during the test?

Yes, a significant malfunction occurred where rounds in a Mec-Gar magazine popped up vertically, causing a failure to feed. This was highlighted as a rare but problematic issue for defensive contexts.

How did the CZ 75 B's trigger perform under stress?

Even with trigger work by Bill Springfield, the CZ 75 B's trigger required the shooter to slow down significantly to maintain accuracy. This contrasts with faster platforms like Glock or SIG, indicating trigger quality is subjective but critical for speed.
