Hey guys. I picked up my CZ82 yesterday, and got some good range time in with it. Its going to work out well for my purposes I think. Pretty cool little gun!
I do have some questions/concerns though I'm hoping you can help me with: 1) Carrying Condition 1 or 2? I've read comments here that say they were designed to be carried condition 1. Two things make me suspect that's not true: the police holster it came with has a thumb break with a strap that looks to me like it's designed for condition 2 only, and out of maybe 100 draws from that holster with it in condition 1, I *think* one of those draws disengaged the safety. I can't be sure, but I'm almost positive it clicked off while in the holster somehow (I will say this particular example's safety clicks off pretty easily. It doesn't take much force at all). I can say for sure that it was off when I presented to the target, and it wasn't because I did it. Any thoughts? 2) Does anyone have a link or source for tear down instructions? I want to take it all the way down to strip off the paint... 3) How best to strip off the paint? I don't have a media blaster unfortunately. 4) If the answer to 3 is media blast it (which I can't do since I dont have one), any suggestions on who to send it to for strip and refinish? Thanks!

Sounds cool! Can you shoot me a link as well just to make sure we're talking about the same guy?
PS: Any issues shipping back and forth? Does he need to ship it back to an FFL or can he send it back to you direct? |

From what I understand he has his ffl so shipping isn't an issue. I forgot he had also thrown on a new set of grip for me as well as painting them to match the pistol. He was cool during the whole process, with shipping and all that fun stuff took him a month. He completely tore down the cz, then painted, then reassembled. This is about 1000 rounds later and still holding up great. His contact email is txrichmond7@yahoo.com

It's DA so I'd carry condition 1 with the hammer down. Cover the firing pin with your left thumb and hold the hammer with your right. Pull and release the trigger then ease the hammer down. The CZ82 has an automatic saftey that blocks the hammer from the firing pin if the trigger is not rearward so it's not as unsafe as it sounds.
For dissassembly I used this guide: http://myweb.cableone.net/leolani/cz...sassembly.html All I needed was a 1/8" and 1/16" punch. Pretty easy except for getting the sear/ejector block/automatic safety assembled. Read the whole guide through once before starting dissassembly/reassembly. Here's some pics: Down to pins and springs ![]() With his bigger brother ![]() That's the one I picked up off of you BigJ, I filed down and reshaped the grips to make the mag release easier to hit then shot a few coats of spray paint on em. Lools good and the gun shoots great, except the rear sight is peened kinda far to the left so I'm gonna have to correct that when I get time. |
