There have been a few chrono tests showing that the hexagonal rifled barrel pushes out some additional FPS out of even standard steel case 9x18 Mak, so there is that as well. They're great shooters, extremely accurate even with cheap steel case ball 9mm Mak, and since the Czech 9x18 load was something like 15% hotter than standard, they can handle some of the 9mm Mak +P that is out there - or you can load your own using trimmed 9x19 brass.

Turned out she thought it was too heavy, and slide was too hard to rack - the slide is somewhat stiff since this is a straight blowback pistol. substantial.amount of 7.62x25.īought two CZ-82s a few years back when they were cheap. I have 2 CZ-52's, the armorer's kit, and a. Harrington is the place to go for replacement pins and other parts. The other more problematic issue with the factory firing pin is that, depending on wear and tolerance stacking, using the decock could hit the pin with enough force to discharge a round. They only really break if you dry fire them. There was a company making properly hardened firing pins a few years ago, but I doubt you're looking at a 52. If it's a CZ-52 in 7.62x25 Tokarev, it's yuuuge for a CCW, and their factory firing pins break. A spring broke on one of mine that's well used, got a replacement for $10 of CZ USA. It was probably used by the Czech military, some were shot a lot. 380, if it is in fact a CZ-82 in 9x18 Makarov. My understanding that it comes in between a 380 and a 9mm Luger. I just want to make sure that the pistol is reliable since she is going to use it for CCW and that the Makarov is a good round. I have sent an email to the person that we are buying it from. The problem is that we haven't purchased it yet.
