What is it that you know about this particular pistol? I hear that these are hard to come by. And, as far as accuracy and quality, you can't beat them. Let's hear it!

Is that a CZ Vz. 82 made in Uhersky Brod in 1986.

yes, CZ 9X18, model 82. I hear that they are a heck of a pistol. Came across this thing and bought it on impulse. I had it cerakoted and was able to find some wood grips for it.

what do you think? I'm curious to hear your opinion

I like CZ's although I am not a fan of the newer stuff. Good guns, the lines of the newer models just don't appeal to me. I do like the lines of this 82 though.

Have you had a chance to shoot it yet?

I agree, anything that goes "bang" is good enough for me. NOt sure you can harvest an animal with it, but i know that this has a little more take down power than a 380 cartridge, but not as much as a 9mm luger.

I've run about 150 rounds through it and haven't had a lick of trouble. This pistol is both a single action and double action. Holds 12 rounds in the mag and is accurate as anything I've seen in a pistol.

For a concealed piece, I would think that it would be ideal.
