Title: CZ 82
Post by: astronut on October 28, 2019, 02:05:16 PM
My CZ82 that I purchased a few months ago.  The finish is not pretty but it is reliable and dependable in its function.

Had an 83 and I absolutely loved it.
Apparently, so did the bastard that broke into my house.

I like it!  Holds more rounds (12) compaired to a Makarov that holds only 8.  Got mine in the condition it is in from jgsales for around $200 before shipping.  Picked up some spare mags for it from aimsurplus.  The CZ82 is chambered in 9x18makarov and the CZ83 is chambered in .380 just for your info.

Everyone needs a CZ82 IMO, here's the one I finally landed after missing the boat on the early imports 3 or 4 times in a row.  thumb1

Here you go!  Same place I got mine from and it was in better appearance than what they showed on their site.  I am in no way affliated with or promoting their site what so ever.

I hear you.  My wallet stays mostly cold with no funds in it to make a purchase when the chance comes.   :(

Nice! The pristine ones are uncommon. Just the nature of painted Parkerized pistols. I picked mine up locally a couple years back. I like the grip feel of a double-stack with my long fingers.

The price at J&G is definitely a good one in today’s market. I’ve seen these going for closer to $300 at auctions. C&R too.

Along with 9mm Mak and .380, there is also a Cz83 chambered in .32acp.. they are not as commonly found, but they do exist thumb1  And there was a hicap Makarov PMM 9x18mm, both Russian and China made that holds either 10 or 12 rounds.

I should have said, I "now" have 2. She got one....so technically... that one is gone.  doh1

But, I do still have these, both came from Aim Surplus back in '08-'09, I got them a year apart, and the serials are 54 off from each other.

I really like my CZ-82's and my CZ-83. I bought (2) CZ-82's in 9x18 Makarov and (1) CZ-83 in .32acp. I've fired one of the CZ-82's, but haven't fired the CZ-83 yet. I'm hoping it feeds as good as it looks.  thumb1  The magazines ARE different for the .32acp. They will insert and lock into either pistol, but of course, they won't work correctly. Not sure why CZ left it like that. I guess they figured not many end users would have various calibers of the same pistol? Hmmm...

Do the CZ-83 .380 and the CZ-82 9x18 Makarov use the same mag?  I'd think they would, but I don't have the .380 model. So, not sure.

I would like to pick up a couple of those leather extra magazine carriers like the one in the OP's first pic. Looks handy.

The CZ 82 I bought came with 1 mag pouch as shown in the pics.  I bought spare mags from aimsurplus and each mag came with a pouch.  I just checked on the aimsurplus site and the mags with pouches are sold out.  You may be able to find just the pouches on ebay or gunbroker but I am not sure.

The .380 and 9x18mm can share the same mag far as I know.

These are so very close...look like carbon copies to the Czech mag pouch.. Liberty Tree says they are Croatian, but I wonder.... think1
