Experience with the following 9s would be appreciated:

CZ 2075 RAMI
Bersa Thunder 9 Compact
Beretta PX4 Storm sub

Looking for lightweight, easily concealable, reliable, accurate

Thanks....

A friend had a Bersa. It locks the triger and slide when you drop the mag. Not a terrible feature but it came with one mag. He had a "lapse of situational awarness" and inserted the mag while cleaning to cycle the slide then pulled the trigger to drop the hammer. He shot through the wall and into the back of his wifes cedar chest.

I don't know if they are a) still built that way and b) only come with one magazine. It did shoot well.

From what I have heard and read, the CZ2075 is the way to go.

Or, for an extra 2 ounces, you could move up to the cz alloy compact

Good suggestion and I will look into it....I am trying to get as small a carry gun as I can other than the ones I do not care for (KelTec, Kahr, Glock), and in 9mm.

You will find that the 75 Compact is a MUCH bigger pistol than the RAMI. Of those you mention, I would go with the RAMI. I am not a Bersa fan (had a couple break) and have nothing bad to day about the Beretta, but I AM a CZ fan. My CCW gun is a CZ 85 compact that they only made for a year or two. It is in 40&W. The 9mm compact is the same size. Mine is really too big to conceal well, but I try. Smiler

I also like Glock, but that's another story.

I did a comparison....and lean to the RAMI. The increased mag cap in the compact is of value, but that would also increase weight.

I would like to see them in person to compare, and may do so next time I am in Phoenix.

CZ 75 compact CZ2075 RAMI CZ75

Weight 27.2 24. 35.4
Length 7.2 6.6 8.1
Height 5. 4.7 5.2
Width 1.4 1.3 1.4
Barrel 3.8 3.0 4.7
Mag cap 14 7 16

CZ's are normally close to fool proof.


velocity is like a new car, always losing value.
BC is like diamonds, holding value forever.

Nothing against Taurus, but I do not like plastic guns, and Glock like triggers....

I just picked up my Rohrbaugh 9mm; expensive, but worth it
