| CZ 75 ‘Order of the White Lion’ Edition |
| 2022-11-08 |
| [The Firearm Blog] CZ has announced the "Order of the White Lion" edition of the CZ 75 pistol, which will be manufactured over the next year. As you can see from the images, the CZ 75 Order of the White Lion edition pistol is decorated with Czech national symbols, like the linden tree leaves and the double-tailed lion. The pistol grips are made from birch root. Hoo boy! I can hear the "White supremaciss!" screeching now. If the limited edition of 100 pieces isn’t special enough, you can bid for the very first CZ 75 of the series in a special online event by the Artslimit auction portal of the Kodl Gallery. This limited edition pistol also comes with its special case. The Order of the White Lion is the highest state honor for both Czech citizens and foreigners for outstanding services to the Czech Republic, eminent contributions to the defense and security of the state, and for enhancing the nation’s international reputation. It is a continuation of a Czechoslovak order of the same name created in 1922. To commemorate the centennial of the Order of the White Lion, the Office of the President of the Republic commissioned a hand-engraved, 100-piece edition of the legendary CZ 75 pistol from Ceska zbrojovka ("CZ"), the Czech Republic-based subsidiary of Colt CZ Group and a long-term partner of the Czech Armed Forces. Colt CZ Group is proud to announce that it will be the world’s first small arms producer to authenticate firearms with blockchain technology. For this special CZ edition, each unique Order of the White Lion pistol will be blockchain-authenticated in cooperation with the BlockTrust company and its Web3-as-a-Service platform. "We believe blockchain can bring outstanding innovation to the commercial firearms industry. It will allow us to introduce new standards of authenticity, safety, and trust never seen before. We are proud to be leading the way with this technology as one of the largest manufacturers of firearms in the world. The non-fungible tokens bring to our customers a digital proof of ownership and assurance of authenticity of these unique collectibles, thus increasing their value. We are also proud to associate our first blockchain-authenticated product with the highest Czech state decoration, the Order of the White Lion," underlined Jan Drahota, CEO of Colt CZ Group. Due to the high-demand for limited, hand-engraved special editions of pistols by CZ, Colt CZ Group has decided to give a fair chance to its customers worldwide to obtain the CZ 75 Order of the White Lion by making it available for purchase through an NFT (non-fungible token) auction process, for the first time in the history of the company. The physical firearms will be delivered to the holders of a winning digital auction certificate, as they are handcrafted over the coming year. As the CZ 75 Order of the White Lion is a truly limited-edition firearm, Colt CZ Group has created a unique opportunity: Any purchaser can ensure they receive the next physical firearm created by topping up their bid to be first on the list for the serial number of their choice. Those interested to know more about the NFT auction, which will take place in the coming weeks, can register on this website: https://engravings.czub.cz/en/cz-75-white-lion/. Colt CZ Group will donate part of the proceeds from the NTF auction and the bid top-ups to the collection account of the Embassy of Ukraine in the Czech Republic in support of the Ukrainian Army. |

| #7 Reporter: People are curious about your pearl-handled revolvers. Patton: They're ivory. Only a pimp from a cheap New Orleans whorehouse would carry a pearl-handled pistol. |

| #2 Beautiful artwork on an excellent hardware platform, but as one comment at the site states "a cz 75 has to look like a cz 75, giving it a Bling is like turning a Wulf in to a Pudel". |
