I get a creepy feeling when I hand over good American dollars for anything new. Which is why I buy used guns. And cheap ones if I can find them.
The CZs look fine to me, but they'll depreciate faster than a used car. And never be worth what you paid for them. Whereas a good used gun MAY appreciate. May not, too, if you pay too much for it from jump street.
If it must be new and I planned to keep it for life, (i.e. not harvest my investment except through time) I'd get a CZ on my budget out of necessity. But "new" is a restricting requirement. I think there are so many good used guns, I doubt I've give CZs a second look.
As for Japanese guns, my Win 23 is a fine shotgun, well-finished and strong. I'm not against mixed heritage, as you can see.
