Czech Republic PM Gives President Trump A CZ 75 Republika Pistol
The Prime Minister of the Czech Republic, Andrej Babiš planned to present a special edition of the CZ 75 pistol to President Donald Trump during his visit to the White House on March 7, 2019. The Republika pistol was made to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the independence of Czechoslovakia in 1918 and only one hundred were produced. Aktuálně.cz reported that President Trump was to receive serial number CSR-1946 in honor of his birth year.

As you can see from the images, the CZ 75 Republika comes with very nice, smooth wood grips and has detailed engravings. The excerpt below from czub.cz explains some of the finer details:

The outline of the frame and the slide is inlaid with 24 carat gold. Within this area, the surface is engraved with the motif of a linden tree branch which constituted an important element of the interwar Czechoslovak Republic national symbols. The engraving can be also found on the front and back of the grip, where it has replaced the usual vertical checkering for more reliable handling. The golden outline and the linden tree motif engraving are repeated on the bottom of the magazine baseplate.

In addition, the controls – the trigger, hammer, slide stop, magazine release and manual safety as well as their visible parts on the right side of the frame are gold-plated with 24 carat gold, as are the extractor and screws securing the anatomical grip panels that are made of briar root. The beautiful grain of this brown wood is further enhanced by varnishing.

There is also a special decorative feature in the form a small Czechoslovak Republic coat of arms used between 1920 and 1938. It is a true copy made of gold (certified by a hallmark), embedded into the right side of the frame, between the gold-plated parts of the safety and slide stop.

Did Trump update his NY permit before bringing it home?

 

[DoD1776]

I don't think he can keep it. It will probably stay in the white house or a museum of sorts. I'm not sure. I remember Jessie James saying he would give trump the pistol he made after he left office. Besides its the thought that counts the Don could by 100 of those czs.

Gifts to the President of the United States
https://fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/R42662.pdf

The Congress has consented generally, in the Foreign Gifts and
Decorations Act, to the acceptance of gifts of “minimal value” from foreign governments offered
as souvenirs or marks of courtesy, and the acceptance of other gifts when a refusal of the gift
may cause “offense or embarrassment” or otherwise harm the foreign relations of the United
States. A tangible gift of more than minimal value accepted for reasons of protocol or courtesy
may not be kept as a personal gift, however, but is considered accepted on behalf of and property
of the United States, and in the case of such a gift for the President or the President’s family, is
handled by the National Archives and Records Administration.​

If Presidents would like to keep specific items when they leave office, I believe that they are allowed to purchase them from the National Archives and Records Administration.

I don’t think this story is true, I’ve googled it and can’t find anything about trump being given a gun.

Obama playing with his from Kenya.

 

[Mr. terzmo]

That gun/present has got to PISS Putin off.

Aw, man. Now I have to envy Trump for something. I'll say 15 Hail Bernie's before bedtime as pennance.

Ew.

 

[repete]

I feel a little gay when I say I really like some guys gun, but damn I do like Trump's gun!

Anyone say.... Safe Queen ....

Nuthin' wrong with chillin' in a Safe.

As long as the AMMO is keeping company.

 

[ProgSpear]

That gun/present has got to PISS Putin off.

So Putin couldn't come up with a Kalashnikov that sported gold inlay? Even the Saudi's managed that trick.

 

[Acer-m14]

Trump should open carry it everywhere he goes ... just to piss off the Dems/Liberals ..

I don’t think this story is true, I’ve googled it and can’t find anything about trump being given a gun.

you really think google will let that show up in a search .. LOL ..

 

[HighlandLofts]

At least we have a president that shoots guns.

 

[Acer-m14]

At least we have a president that shoots guns.

yeah .. but he needs to just get more into it and the gun accessories parts ..

 

[Marine Cpl]

At least we have a president that shoots guns.

Lol. True but I guarantee he shoots his pistol using the teacup method.

 

[eris]

you really think google will let that show up in a search .. LOL ..

trump receives czech gun - Google Search

The firearms blog link from above is the first search result Google returns for me. It's also the only result mentioning the gift. I suspect this just isn't considered newsworthy and no one is reporting it. Gifts from foreign countries are a dime a dozen and don't really make the news.

 

[Shadow2]

sieg heil Bernie sounds more like it.

Aw, man. Now I have to envy Trump for something. I'll say 15 Hail Bernie's before bedtime as pennance.

 

[gun_slinger_boy]

I don't really like CZ pistols but... whether it's true Trump is getting that gun or not it's beautiful.

 

[eris]

sieg heil Bernie sounds more like it.

LOL So you're saying the Jew is a Nazi? That's rich.

 

[Shadow2]

So you feel a religious belief system disqualifies him from being a dictator? Disregard the fact that Seig Heil just means hail victory which is all i see when a progressive socialist speaks. The notion that Jews didn't sell other Jews out in Germany is naive.

He's a socialist with plenty of followers ready to goose step across the US Jewish or not.

You don't have to be an actual nazi to be a nazi

LOL So you're saying the Jew is a Nazi? That's rich.
