CZ 82 are they worth it?

okami515 · 04-06-2009, 05:50 PM

been thinking about gettingone am still up in the air. If I got it it would be just for plinking and to add top the collection. So should I?

for the price alone you can't beat them. they are a really well made and dependable pistol. all mine are 100% reliable with any ammo I have shot in them. I carry one as my everyday carry gun. when they first came availiable, they were in like new condition. the ones I have seen shipped lately have definately been issued. they show a lot of wear on the finnish. but they are still great shooters. get one, you won't be sorry. I think they are the best deal out there.

I love mine...want to get another...alot better handling than a Makarov.

ArkansasHunter · 04-07-2009, 03:17 PM

Are they worth it you say ? Let me tell you, you will be hard pressed to find someone that don't like them.

They are probably the BEST Mil-Surp you can buy and an excellent shooter to boot !

I bought a second one and sold to a friend, I sure wished I kept it. I love mine and you will to, so get you one, and I would pay a hand pick charge to...A.H

I can't really tell you if a 1987 CZ(VZ)82 is a good gun or not.
However I can tell you my 84, 85, 86, 88, & 89s are GREAT!!!!!
They all are good shooters ( a couple rough mag releases ). They look good in the original finish, they look really good with satin nickel finish, the stardard grips are OK, Marschal grips ( Zebrawood & red Walnut ) are fantastic !

You won't buy just one.

chobbs · 04-25-2009, 06:12 PM

I can verify that the ones made in 1987, work just fine. I have 2 of them.

okami515 · 04-26-2009, 08:46 AM

thanks guys, sounds like I should get it just have to wait for my buddies driveway to dry out so They can ship.

SwedeSteve · 05-19-2009, 03:47 PM

They're a great buy, and so simple to clean and maintain !!

stalebiscuit · 06-04-2009, 12:02 PM

they are going to cost around 200 dollars said and done and shipped

the ammo is plentiful and cheap compared to everything else

holds 12 rounds which is good for a C&R automatic (and its C&R eligible)

id get one

blaster · 06-04-2009, 06:30 PM

Stablebiscuit- a CZ 82 should be your first C&R purchace. It will make a great companion for your new full sized CZ 75. also a lot better to ccw than a derringer!

jmp8927 · 06-04-2009, 08:34 PM

I have one and absolutely love it. Ammo is cheap too. Also has a really smooth trigger.

ArkansasHunter · 06-04-2009, 09:21 PM

I'll never sale or get rid of mine...A.H

im honestly considering it alot

of course whenever i go to actually buy the gun i want i walk out with a different one and im just as happy if not happier

voidfinger · 06-12-2009, 06:01 PM

Ok I'm looking to get a cz82 and I can't find them for sale anywhere... at least not in the 200 dollar range. Where should I get mine from? I've been wanting to pick up one of these for a WHILE!

BTW, what do you have to do to get a C&R license?

ArkansasHunter · 06-12-2009, 06:11 PM

Saw some at Classic Arms last night while there looking. I bought my 2 from AIM Surplus.
The one I kept is an 88 or 89 model that appeared un-issued. The 2nd. one I sold my buddy appeared un-issued to.

He loves his and would'nt take a 1000 dollars for it. Wished I hadn't of sold it to him to...A.H

voidfinger · 06-12-2009, 06:33 PM

I checked the two places the Classic arms place doesn't have it in stock and I've had trouble with them before... also AIM doesn't have them on site but they do have a hellava deal on ak mags

K75RT · 06-12-2009, 07:36 PM

Try here, they have them in stock.
