CZ82's - where did they all go?

Century has a bunch of CZ83's but I don't see any CZ82's at all. (Just checked, too.)

Century is offering a package excellent condition Cz82, with holster and extra mag, along with 300 rounds of ammo for $410 which I think is a great deal. The going rate on these has been in the $350-$375 range for the last few years. I don’t know if Century will ship these without magazines or ship to a MD 01 who agrees to pin the mags. I’m pretty sure that they won’t ship mags to a different location/person.

Hmm. I've got a CZ-82 I've been thinking of parting with, along with 2 10-round (pinned) mags. Maybe I should put her up in the classifieds.

Couple of P-64s too, I find I'm just not into the makarov round any more and haven't shot any of the three in a long, lonnnng time...

FYI, if you get a CZ82, do yourself a favor and skip the $20 magazines . They're advertised as genuine surplus but all of them are cheaply made aftermarket parts which are prone to causing malfunctions. If your magazine has a visible weld in the front, it's not a genuine CZ part.

The good news is that CZ83 mags will work for the 82 and genuine ones can be bought online for about $50 (CZ part # 11302).

MSI had a few CZ82 magazines on their table at successive Chantilly, VA shows for a donation to MSI (it was no more than $20 for a mag, maybe less). Not sure if they're gone. MDSer Shafted might know.

Nice looking pistol. I can't wait to get my c&r in the mail. Got my MD collectors recently

I would be willing to part with mine as well. It has custom wood grips and was blued (flaking paint). I have three factory mags which cannot be transferred inside Maryland.

If I hadn’t sold mine after only a short period of ownership, I’d be willing to sell mine too. Out of all the handguns I’ve owned, the Cz82 is definitely my least favorite. I never liked it. It was extremely accurate, but it was ugly, not really historically significant, and that black painted finish is awful.

Your right the CZ-82 can be down right fugly, that why you got to do a little work and then they are very nice and can be a hell of a great shooter!

Looks almost exactly like mine.

Got it, thank you. I didn't realize these were 9x18 - ie 9mm Makarov.

I am in the shop tomorrow but I think there is a CZ 82 in the display. Call Baltimore's Best Pawn and Gun if you need to know today. 410-526-1011

Nothing wrong with 9x18. It’s now readily available.

If the Crown would ever allow me to obtain a W&C Permit, I would W&C my E German Mak

Jeez guys, don’t all sell your Cz-82s all at once!

Besides, someone save one they want to get ride of for a few months till I can spare the money to buy another gun (and yet another caliber I’ll have to start collecting).

Well, I’m not actually selling anything until I can score a couple of magazines that work well. If mine ran better, I think I’d love it, and I have a feeling I just need good mags. The mak round in that steel frame is almost like shooting a .22, and those fixed barrel blowback guns really are accurate little critters.

Echo6mike, going mobile...

Yes, those went almost immediately, $20 donated to MSI for each one.

Funny you say that. One of the reasons I hated my Cz82 was that both mags had feed problems.

Ummmm...Maryland Shooters. Maryland is located in the Eastern United States. It’s in the Western Hemisphere.

PM me when you're ready. Mine is all Bubba pretty: blued with wood grips and all dat stuff. I have three factory mags I will ship out of state on my dime. 200rds of Monarch ammo and at least 24rds of hot Underwood HP ammo too.
$400

FWIW- I won't ignore other interested parties.

You just need to get some factory mags. Brownells and other stores have them. CZ part # 11302. The aftermarket mags being sold for around $20 at Classic Firearms and other places are known to cause feeding issues.

Neither of my factory mags ever ran well. I played with the feed lips until the cows came home and it made very little difference.

CZ82's - where did they all go?
