I've noticed that I can move very very easy the right slide stop lever of my CZ-85B up and down for a milimetre or two. If I shake the pistol just a little bit it moves! The pistol was made in 2002, and it came new that way. But I don't have the same problem with my two years older CZ-85B. Its right slide stop lever is not so loose, doesn't move freely at all. Also, this happens only when the slide is not locked back. If it is locked back than the right lever is also rock solid.
Is this normal, or something is broken? Also, without the left lever in the pistol, when it is disassabmled for example, it is not loose. Something broken or just normal?
Please help. :(

I had more or less the same problem with my 85C.  First I would replace the slide stop spring.  Second I would not be pushing the slide stop up.  IT is meant to be pushed down to to release the slide.  IF you push it up to far you run the risk of bending the spring thus causing it to lose tension which I suspect has happened here.
Replace the spring is easy enough.  Ghost Products will walk you through it I am sure.

No, there is nothing wrong with the spring. It moves freely, like the spring is not there! Well, just a mil or two.

Does the right hand stop kinda flop around a bit.  If it does it is the spring.  You should feel instant tension on the lever when you push it dowm and when released it should pop up to ist rest position.

How to remove the right slide stop?

How can I remove my right slide stop lever and than take it back? Also, it would be great if someone could explain how to detail strip the CZ 75/85 completely. You can find a similar instruction for each tipe of modern pistols, Glocks, XDs, SIGs etc.etc. You can even find videos online but nothing for CZ. :(
