Deciding between the 712 or the 912.
« on: February 04, 2016, 12:08:09 AM »
Am getting ready to purchase a semi auto shot gun.  I have decided that I will go with a CZ because of the good things I hear.   I already have a Turkish made Winchester SXP,  which for the money is a good pump gun that my boys use and abuse. 

Looking for opinions on the 712 vs 912 and the different recoil systems.   Is the extra money worth it for the 912? It's nit a huge difference,  but if essential the same gun, why? 

Also,   I kind of like the green anodized finish available on the 712, but am worried it will just look bad after a couple years of use.   But I am hearing it will hold up better than the black finish on the 912.  Comments?

The stock 712 (utility) doesn't have much in the way of a recoil pad and mine doesn't cycle light loads reliably. No experience with the 912.
