All very valid points and opinions.
I bought it as a gun for my collection and am lucky to have 2 Czechmates to shoot for fun.
So to keep it in pristine condition, from a collectable point of view it will be a gun on the wall for me.
Thanks for all the input.
I guess having a regular Czechmate, not shooting the Parrot is understandable. I'm just getting more into CZs, have only a TS but have a Parrot incoming in a week or two which I'll be shooting. It's one of those things where I doubt value will be affected much; if someone wants ome, they'll pay for one, even used.
I've seen a few of your other posts, and know you're also into the Sig Mastershop pistols. Those are my bread and butter. I used to just let them sit in the safe. After getting rid of a few, I realized the waste of that. So, now, I'm shooting everything.
