Any CZ fans here?

Agree with you on #10. Was just wondering if #4 included Ruger 1911 clones.

Well, Ruger used to make a pistol called the "American" but it looks like it is now discontinued. Since the list provides specific make and model, I would assume that #4 refers specifically to the "Ruger American Pistol" and not just "Ruger pistols made in America." I'm a little surprised it ranked so highly on the list, but it was a well made affordable pistol so I reckon it makes sense.
 
1911s are made by so many manufacturers and under so many SKUs that I don’t think that chart captures the reality of how many 1911s are sold in total. Still less than the total number of plastic fantastic striker-fired pistols, of course.
 
Got it, guys. 1911 then only part of #10 ....

It's only sales via gunbroker .... so just an indication of popularity. For instance, I myself never bought via gunbroker ....

You could get total numbers, but it's hard to exclude LEO and Military sales, so difficult to conclude from those numbers what a Hipster shoots :)

I'm guessing more hipsters shop at GB because their favorite firearms are easiest to find there. Bubba Joe's Gun-o-rama is unlikely to carry them. Plus, Bubba Joe is partial to his 'murcan gun brands like Springfield Armory and Rock Island Armory. ;)😀 🤣

Watch out, Bubba Roland is partial to Springfield and their 1911s are back and made in Geneseo, Illinois since a while :)

(So is the M1a which I care more for)
 
FYI, to all concerned parties here who may be new to CZ firearms, there is a firm called Cajun Gun Works from Monroe, Louisiana that sells parts and kits to improve recoil abatement, trigger reset, etc for lots of CZ models. I have not personally used their services, but close friends of mine have and I can attest to how well the guns work with improved springs and such. Could be worth a look

6CZ-USA CZ 75
7Ruger Mark IV
8Smith & Wesson M&P9
9Springfield Hellcat
10Armscor/RIA Rock

They don't have complete 2025 data yet, and SIG probably took a dip.

The 1911 is not heavily represented, I wouldn't call it mainstream ... maybe in 4, not sure.

Maybe overrepresented on BF due to the number of Boomers and Gen X (incl. me) we have ....

I'm a little surprised about #2 considering the known issues with the P320.

Maybe this has been fixed? I haven't had any issues with my P320.

I'm actually looking at their trigger upgrade spring kit.

Seems like a great upgrade for the price, although the stock trigger isn't bad.
