Czech gunmaker CZ strutted one of the company's least-known models on social media this week, the rare but very satisfying CZ-75 Automatic.
The original CZ-75 pistol, designed in then-Czechoslovakia by the brothers Koucky in the 1970s, was and still is one of the most popular combat handguns of modern times. It served as the basis for a number of clones and half-brothers including Col. Jeff Cooper’s Bren 10, the BUL Cherokee, the IMI Jericho, the Tanfoglio TZ-75 series, and the short-lived Springfield Armory P9.
However, "just" adding a simple internal sear controlled by a select-fire/safety switch on the left-hand side of the frame could transition the weapon from semi-auto (DA/SA) to a 1000-rpm full-auto machine pistol (https://www.guns.com/news/2013/08/05/the-cz75-full-auto-machine-pistol-czechmate).

The frame was provided with a dimple just forward of the trigger guard to hook a modified spare magazine into to serve as a makeshift fore grip.
