NEW 52
« on: October 30, 2011, 08:44:48 AM »
I just got my first CZ52. It was a consignment at our local shop and I couldn't resist buying it since I already have a 82 and 75B (never enough CZ's). I don't think it was ever shot-looks brand new and even the holster appears never to have been worn.  I've never shot a 52 and thought they were kind of "clunky" looking.  After shooting it, I'm a believer! What fun to shoot. Seems like less recoil than my 9MM 75 and tight groups. Great pistol! What have I been missing...

I'd send pictures, but I'm a bit illiterate when it comes to computers. I'll give it a try....

I just won a Gunbroker auction and have a CZ 52 coming my way, before too long!  I'll post pics when I get it.  Can't wait - the pics on GB look great -

Just got it . . . wow . . . it is in spectacular shape . . . maybe unfired since it was refinished by the Czechs.  Came with two mags, a holster and a cleaning tool - pics below of it and my CZ 82..

I tore it down and cleaned it . . . it was just about dripping oil - but it was clean as could be, other than the over abundance of lubricant!

Since my initial post, I've ordered an unissued 52 from czechpoint. $300. You all owe it to yourselves to czech them out. I did and couldn't resist ordering one. Get them while they last....I've never bought a pistol to be a "safe queen', but since I have 2 52's-this new one may get that status.
