I picked up a couple of those little Czech CZ pistols. What a fantastic bargain they are. Well built, reliable, accurate even with that crappy Russian ammo.
They’re in our vehicle “go bags”. They’re also a lot of fun to shoot!
And for only 200 a copy, well you can’t beat that with a stick.
I have a friend that bought a surplus CZ52 for he and his wife (a pair) to protect themselves in the car....they love them.
Yep.
We’ve got guns twice as expensive as the CZ82. None of them are as accurate or easy to shoot.
I’ve heard nothing but good things about them. Thought about getting one, but I ended up getting a Zastava M88 instead, because 9mm is cheap and easy to find here.
Very accurate and nice to shoot, even with a heavy trigger; compact and flat, with Tokarev internals.
It seems like a nice gun, but it has a nasty case of “hammer follow” that I just can’t seem to iron out. I thought replacing the disconnector and honing the sear would do it, but no dice. As of right now, though, it’s like a single action revolver. You have to pull the hammer back with every shot.
If I can’t get it to work, maybe I’ll trade it for one of those CZ’s instead. I came really close to getting one a few years back and have regretted not buying it ever since.
The CZ 82 is a great bargain and a great design.
Sweet shooter.
