82 Mag Drop Free?
« on: September 10, 2010, 08:48:05 PM »
Is it possible to make the 82  mag drop free?
I've read that in other CZ's there is a friction plate that can be bent straighter to allow mags to drop free.
The is no such plate in an 82.
So, is it the mag release putting pressure on the mag?

When I press my mag release the mag drops free, no problems.  The only trouble I had was with one faulty magazine that I returned.

Both of mine are as new, but I don't think the mags are the problem.
The mag catch appears to be rubbing the mag above the notch.
Is this normal?

Ok, I removed the grips and oiled the mag catch, worked it several times, and now mags are dropping free.
Problem solved.

Thanks for the reply.
