For what its worth, I won a CZ-712 a month or so ago. Initially, I was impressed. I had owned other brand semi-auto's made in Turkey, and althought they work, the fit and finish and rough machining left a bit to be desired.
The 712 has very respectable fit. The wood is a nice piece of walnut, although the finish is "production." Not bad, just could be better. Some day if I feel particularly ambitious, I may refinish the stock and forearm.
It comes with a nicely formed pistol grip, and a sporting clays style recoil pad.
I was very impressed by the trigger, which is a place where some "production" shotguns guns fail miserably. This gun has a very nice trigger. Reasonable pull weight and very little creep.
The metal machining is precise.
The styling reminds me a little bit of an older Beretta 303.
The LOP is a little long for me at 14.5" but my first time out with it on the skeet field, I shot it well. I had anticipated shortening the LOP, but will take it out hunting first to see how it handles.
I had it out after I first got it to "break it in" with a couple of boxes of heavy hunting loads (1-1/4 ounces at 1350 fps). It handled them fine. Had a couple of early jams, but the more I shot it, that went away.
It also handles my light target loads (1 ounce at 1160 fps) flawlessly.
Unless I find something to complain about, this is likely to become my primary upland game hunting gun.
