CJ, "Czechoslovakian semiautomatic handgun" is about as informative as "United States semiautomatic handgun" - or even saying something to the extent that it was a Glock or a Sig - how many calibers does Sig have? I remember that I had never heard of that type of handgun before, but I, on the great ladder of FR firearms knowledge, am camped down on the very bottom rung of the ladder. I was hoping if we had the specifics for the weapon, someone could tell us the probable caliber. Of course, that does not mean that it wasn't the same as the caliber of the weapons used by the police in the incident...
