I liked the Don Hume Holster he was using.  I think I would have been ok with the blemishes to the bluing just from wear, but that dent on the right side of the slide.. ouch.

Good Video, I enjoyed watching it.

He started out by saying that the gun butt was too wide for concealed carry, but then seemed to say that concealed carry worked fine with the holsters mentioned. He sure looked like he was having fun shooting the gun!

Pretty good! Gotta love the smiles from shooting an 82.

I would like to see Hickock45 do a review some time as he tends to send rounds out a bit farther Though I would certainly not call Mike a poor shot in the least.

I also am curious on his reloads, were they cast bullets?  I know some frown on running cast through polygonal barrels.He did not even mention the polygonal rifling.

He was having too much fun.

CZ UB seems to be fine about using lead bullets in their polygonal barrels.  See reply #6: http://www.czfirearms.us/index.php?topic=49684.0.

Great video, have only practiced out in the pasture for the most part and now I have all sorts of ideas to make it fun.  Now I'm wondering on the differences between 82 and 82M-- more looking around and I'm sure to find it.

I am unaware of any M-version of the CZ 82.  The official designation of the pistol is vz 82, where "vz" is a Czech abbreviation for their word for "model."  Because the pistol was made by CZ and is virtually identical to the CZ 83, most Americans refer to the gun as the CZ 82.  I've seen a photo showing an imported surplus firearm engraved with "CZ m 82," which seems to be honoring the "vz" with our common military abbreviation for "model."

Might I assume shaving cream sales have risen in your neighborhood?

I love Mike's reviews.  He is so down to earth compared to some Youtube "celebrities."

I suspect he meant the OP, not you skookum.  Just a guess. :)

Oh well, it forced me to search for the photo.
