I was very impressed the first time I shot it. Been trying to get it from my buddy for 2+ years! Finally one him over. I don't think they make this model in chrome anymore.

ah the Jericho....

it's based off the CZ -85 slide rides inside the frame. They're great shooting and generally very accurate for the money.

nice buy.

How much did it run you?

Those are essentially an EAA Witness as well, another fine shooter for the dollar.

whoops, meant based on the CZ-75 up there...

I see...I'm trying to wrap my head around why they were so expensive.

hell, you can get a new Witness for what you paid on that gun. From a fit and finish stand point, they're both about equal. One's Italian and the other is Israeli.

Looks like that pistol might be a little more collectible though as it's not getting imported right now apparently.

not a bad buy at all though. Do your part and it should put up sub 3" groups @ 25 yds with some good ammo.

here's a favorable review of the pistol if you ever had any reservations about it.

yeah.

It takes a lot of work to make that design unreliable and inaccurate.

I have 17rd mags too, I've only ever seen 15 in 9mm. Adds to the rarity a bit. This model isn't even in the manual. Imma google it quick.

you won't find them now as KBI got back the rights to import them last year. KBI shut their doors not very long ago.

that gun has an interesting and confusing history

Sweet!

One of my favorite features of this gun is the ability to chamber a round when slamming the mag in.
