Last week I took my CZ75 and two mags out to test some reloads. The first mag totaly failed to feed even one round. The second mag was original to the gun, and I had put Wolff springs into it and its brother. It worked perfectly.
Today I took all my mags, six of which are factory new but not used, from when the Czech Republic was Czechoslovakia, and tested them all. Three had the Wolff springs, which I could tell by how stiff they were in reloading. Those three worked fine. Six still had the factory springs in them and all failed to get the round up in time to feed or get the bullet nose up.
The pistol is utterly reliable with good mag springs, This was a shock to me that all the factory springs were garbage. I had replaced the original springs about 15 years ago when I bought the gun just because, and as I recall I had no problems with the mags back then before the change out.
I have three Wolff springs on order and will order three more. The Wolf website states that with CZ75 springs 5% is really 10%, and 10% is really 15%. Now if I could only find my 10th mag..........
As an aside, there were people waiting to collect my brass when I was done shooting. Since I reload they didn't get it.
