Those 82's are damned fine shooters, aren't they? I bought one on a lark about a year ago. Since then I've bought two more. They're the best value on the surplus pistol market right now.

You might want to compare the lips of the two magazines. I'll bet one of them is bent someplace, but ask mylife. He knows that pistol better than I do.

I'm convinced it's the polygonal barrels that make them so wicked accurate. If you get the chance to recover a fired bullet, take a good look at it compared to one fired through traditional rifling. I think you'll agree.

All I know is that I LOVE our 82's. Glad to meet someone else who appreciates a bit of fine Czech craftsmanship.

Best,

L

It is the best value on the surplus market.

The fixed barrel and the polygonal rifling combined with decent sights and excellent trigger pull make this thing a winner.

Yeah, some people think its underpowered(it’s not) and yeah the finish is on the cheap side, but the CZ 82 is a wonderfully engineered concealable high cap pistol for $200

mylife and 50 have been telling me about the merits of the CZ82 for quite a while now.

While doing some research on the web, I came across your range report here on FR that you posted about a year ago. It was also a very convincing and informative post.

Thanks!
