Best is going to be judged on many aspects. Rather than argue the many parts... Overall for me they are the best. I like to think of it this way. If I could only have one handgun, it would be the CZ75b. I have traded and sold handguns. But only traded CZ's for other CZ's, never sold one. If I did sell one it would be to obtain funds to buy another CZ. I still have other handguns but they don't get the attention or love my CZ's do. So that is my opinion, you got it for free, take it for what's it is worth.
