CZ-75 Automatic: The Czechoslovak Machine Pistol
At The Range

In the wake of the collapse of the Soviet Union, CZ started exploring more commercial export options for its guns. In addition to resurrecting (well, attempting to) the vz.64 Skorpion in 9x19mm, they also developed a selective fire version of their landmark CZ-75 pistol. Production began in 1995, and shut down in 2000. A few more were made in 2002-3, and a final batch in 2007, for a grand total of 2,382 manufactured. Besides the selector allowing semi or fully automatic fire, the CZ75 Automatic differed form the regular CZ75 only in having the ability to mount a spare magazine as a vertical front grip, and was sold with extended 25-round magazines.
The Czech police tested it, and found it unsuitable because of excessive recoil and muzzle climb - not surprising, as this is typical of basically all machine pistols without stocks.
Thanks to DSA for the opportunity to shoot this on camera for you!
