CZ-82 Pistol

Vintovki · 08-06-2006, 04:59 PM

I picked up one of the CZ-82s from AIM and I am totally pleased with the whole package. I've included some pics; the pistol comes with 2 magazines, a cleaning rod, ambidexterous holster and a lanyard. The pistol is nearly ambidexterous, the safety which allows cocked and locked carry is ambi as is the magazine button, the slide release is not but if you need to reload you merely have to load a new mag and pull the slide back and by-pass the release. These pistols are all steel and finished nicely. The bore has polygonal rifling so no lead reloads only metal jackets. Definitely a keeper.

THere is not much real ballistic difference between .380 acp (9x17) and 9x18 Makarov. Commercial ammo probably favors the .380 for high quality hollow points. I have a circa 1990 CZ-82 in .380 and have had excellent performance and accuracy. The only ammo it didn't like was aluminum cased Blazer.

I just bought a cz-82 and I see people writing about the model year of their cz-82. Where can I find out what year my gun was made?
Thanks!
