Anyone had any experience or seen the new CZ-2075 Rami? No dealers around where I live carry any CZ's :'( and the little Rami looks like a good concealed carry pistol.

.40 or 9mm?

Mines the .40 and can be quite the handful at the range.

Mine does get carry duty in a Galco Yaqui holster. One of these days I plan on getting the 10 round magazines for when I go to the range. Being able to get that fourth finger involved in controlling recoil should help quite a bit.

Been reading that the Rami 40's have had problems, sure hope it smooths out ...

It's true that the RAMI has had some issues ... mainly in .40 caliber. The primary cause appears to be with the original .40 magazines and redesigned mags are supposedly on their way. But .40 owners have been hearing that for a while now.

Mine was flawless for the first year and a half or so, then it slowly developed a failure to feed issue. Not wanting to wait on the new mags, I sent the barrel off to CZ for a "ramp job". Within two weeks, it was returned to me and function properly ever since.

I may get the new mags when they show up, but until then, I have enough confidence in the .40 RAMI to carry it daily.

Been researching the CZ40 aka Colt thing and can't find what caliber it was originally designed for. Thought it was 40, but anyway mine works so far in 9mm. Spad

The Colt Z40 project was designed for the .40 caliber round from the getgo. It was Colt's attempt to enter the police .40cal market. The Z40 was to be a DAO gun.

When Colt backed out of the arrangement that they had with CZ for its creation, CZ continued to develop the pistol and the CZ 40 was created.

The 2007 CZ Yearbook also has a lengthy article on the development of Colt Z40 / CZ CZ40 pistol. It suffers in the translation, though. See page 56, I believe: http://www.czub.cz/index.php?p=35&idn=89&lang=en
