J&G's CZ 82

Iron_Colonel · 10-23-2008, 01:56 AM

Should be on its way to me soon I hope. Hopefully everything will go smoothly, and I will be shipped a great weapon. I chose the hand select, and made a request. Hopefully someone on the other end will do their damndest. Looking forward to its arrival. I also have some ammo coming soon as well, maybe they show up the same day. That would be sweet. I read the reviews, and they all looked pretty good, so hopefully all will go well. Anyone else have one of these guns, or have dealt with J&G and have any feedback, I'd be interested.

I bought my FEG Model AP-MBP from them. They were courteous on the phone and shipped promptly, with adequate packaging. The pistol was a jewel, as promised.

However, they weren't helpful after I got it and discovered that the one magazine they had sent with it was so stiff I could not load it without a major struggle. They would not exchange it. Nor is J&G good about having a stock of magazines so you can buy more than one when you buy your pistol. If the pistol does not come as-purchased with more than one magazine, you're SOL with them.

I ended up buying additional MBP magazines from Centerfire Systems, and got good ones at a good price. If you need or want extra mags for your CZ-82, you might check them out.

Hey thanks for the info. I got an email telling me they have it shipped today. So hopefully the shipping will be fast as I am excited and awaiting its arrival.

I purchased my AP-MBP from J&G and found them to handle the transaction and shipping just fine. My brother purchased a P-64 and had a similarly good experience.

As for the stiff mag problem, these are surplus mags and need to be thoroughly cleaned. I had the same problem. I suspect the mags were never cleaned by the previous owners. I purchased 2 extra mags with the AP. One was so filthy I couldn't load it. The other two are just fine.

I ordered a CZ-82 from SOG am expecting it to be delivered Monday. It is going to be a long Monday at work.

Enjoy your pistols. I really like the recoil of the AP. It's a sweet shooter, just needs some day glow on the sights. Hard to see the sight picture at the range when shooting at a black target. Did you replace the recol and hammer springs? i did and it made the DA very easy to use. I ordered the ehaviest recoil and lightest hammer springs wolf offered. Will do the same for my 82 when it arrives.

they just sent me a couple of ak74 mags that i ordered, it took about a week for the package to arrive, and everything was just like they said it would be. ill be doing more buissness with them in the future.

Hey guys I got this sucker a couple weeks ago and didn't like the finish on it. I couldn't use the blue remover to get rid of the finish that was on it so I just sanded it and wire wheeled it all off and its a polished steel gun now. Looks good with the black grips on it. I'll have to post pics when I can find the camera.....

So where are the pics?

I don't know somewhere in the Czech Firearms forum I think. But I will post another here too. Still looking for a slide release spring. Hard to find. I have 3 places I am going to try calling tomorrow. It was suggested to order a spring piece of metal and make my own. It may come down to it. CZ USA hasn't returned my email yet. So I don't know if they would be able to help or not.

Did you ever find your spring? There's a guy over on the P64 forum who makes his own and sells them.

Sorry just gotta ask, what ammo are you shooting in that thing??? that is some serious hollow points there. I'm just curious b/c I want one and wanted to use hollow points in it. Thanks

ArkansasHunter · 06-12-2009, 06:20 PM

I'm shooting Hornady Custom hollow points which happen to be the most acurate cartridge I've tried.
Winchester which I guess is S&B shoots better than Federal's in my CZ 82.

Iron Colonel CZ83 parts will work on our CZ82's if we can't find 82 parts. Hope I never have to work on mine though.
Did you get a Spring ???
