Did you make sure to pull the trigger guard down when trying to move the stuck slide?

Yes, I’ve tried it both ways. With the trigger guard down and up.

May we please have a moment of silence for my dear departed CZ-82?

Got back from my business travels a day early so I was able to take it over to a smith. Turns out it was not the same ejector pin problem I had in the past. It has a bulged barrel! The odd thing is I did not notice or hear a squib round while I was firing (although I was doing a rapid fire drill). Apparently I had a squib stuck in the barrel and then the next round pushed it out.

I suppose I'm lucky the barrel didn't split. On the other hand, this is a testament as to how well built these things are.

My smith suggested that I hold onto it until one of those $50 buy-back programs comes around.

I'm gonna miss her. She was my favorite pistol.

Upon seeing how deeply saddened I was, my better half gave me permission to buy another one.

:)
