I am thinking about selling the CZ50... don't really need a .32ACP and I am more of a shooter than a collector. It is a lot of fun to shoot, and accurate, but I could use some cash with Christmas coming up.
I occasionally carry the CZ82 and the CZ75BD, though neither is in my usual carry rotation.

I already said this in the military Czech section, Jay, but I'll repeat myself here: all CZ 70's are marked at the factory as CZ 50's, because they're just an update of it. So you may indeed have a CZ 70. Here's what Wikipedia says:

The vz. 70 (sometimes called the CZ 70) is a variant of the vz. 50 with some minor cosmetic changes made in 1970.

New grip shape with a larger recess for the web between thumb and finger.
New grip pattern using a grid of dimples instead of grooves.
Top of the slide is engraved with a fine wave pattern to reduce glare.
Serial number is stamped on the slide under the ejection port instead of below and behind it.
Slide serations are wider and there are more of them.
Take down lever has a cross hatched instead of grooved surface.
Larger hammer with a hole in it.
Smaller magazine release.
New magazine base with a more angular and less curved shape.

My CZ has the old-style grips, the serial number below and behind the ejection port, and the grooved take-down lever, which are marks of a CZ 50. And it has a '69 government service acceptance stamp. But it has everything else on the list above that marks a CZ 70. So it's either a transitional model, or a late CZ 50 that was refurbished as a CZ 70.

This little rippre keyholes at 50mm and loves the cheapest ammo i can buy over here. Actually it hate the expensive stuff.

Not sure if key holes are what you are after farmer?Maybe you mean tack driver.I have a highstandard supermatic pistol and it used to keyhole until I got the crown fixed.Key holes are the projectile going through the target/paper sideways.

i have cz75bd and loveit exept for the fact that there is not a manual safty ust a decocker bought it anyway becouse it was the only cz75i could find in town at the time, payed $410, is that a good or bad deal?

[dgray64]

CZ52 and a CZ 40B. Both are dead-on accurate, though the 40 is easier to dismantle and clean. Love CZ pistols!!

[wheelingranger]

[EviL]

Got my CZ550 in .308 a couple weeks ago. Took it for a test spin this past Saturday in search of some vermin and i guess it was my lucky day. There were 3 but the 3rd one took off before i could get the 3rd shot off.

Went to the gun shop today looking for a Bersa. A CZ 75 compact followed me home.



I couldn't resist the hi-gloss blued finish. Don't see that everyday anymore.

[squirrelbaster]

good choice. youll love it!!

[Apollo Morelos]

I have a CZ40, and I like it a lot.

CZ 52 and CZ 82

No idea how I missed this post. 550 American in 6.5x55, 527 carbine in 7.62x39, 452 Mannlicher Stock .22 LR, CZ 83 in .380, the only thing close to a complaint is the 550 was a bit rough in the bolt, but it worked out nicely after a few hours of working the bolt and a couple hundred rounds. My favorite of the week is the 452, that is just a sweet little shooter.

Seven, too bad Troy Duffy didn't put any into Boondock Saints, maybe it was because the movie was too perfect already?
