Where to find parts

[dtomp]

I have 2 CZ82's that need slide stops, I can't find anywhere. Any help?

https://www.brownells.com/ seems like the only one who has parts anymore.

Brownells is a bust, I've been searching for a month, nothing.

Found sear springs in stock here https://www.buymilsurp.com/ ...they may have more items you are looking for.

Believe me, I have looked everywhere. My only hope is that maybe a member will have the parts. If anyone has 1 or 2 slide stops - I've got cash. If I could get one to check out, I might be able to make them, of if someone else wants to make them - I'll buy 2

Wonder if cutting down/altering a slide stop from another pistol might be easier than all the steps involved in starting from scratch? Wouldn't have to heat treat/temper a cut down piece as long as you don't get it too hot. I'm not a machinist. I'm just lazy!

I thought about that too, but I don't have one to start with.

Let me see how many I have....I went crazy ordering CZ 83 parts a few years back because I figured they would be hard to find eventually with them being discontinued.

If i have at least 3 I might be willing to let one go.

FYI, I have a few with missing slide stops as well, I've just filled the empty hole with a pin and called it a day...everything works fine (except of course the slide stop ;>)

The pin just forward of the slide stop (where the slide stop spring normally resides) does tend to walk a bit since the spring isn't keeping it in place, but a drop of Loctite cured that problem.

Nice, As long as it works, right. I might have found slide stops. Contacted a guy from chech republic who says it's possible - I'll keep everyone posted.

If this guy comes through, I'll post his info for everyone else.

Good detective work!

Maybe the .xls file could be of any use. If not now maybe for future reference.
The 82/83 slide stops seems to share the same part number and a Google search on that gives a couple of sources outside the US that might have them.
Dont know if they ship to the US and if you want to go that way.

First of all - I'd like to thank everyone for their help. Its been good advise and very insightful. Second - to the guys who offered to sell me their extra slide stop, thank you sooo much. It goes to show you people are always willing to help when it comes to our passions. I not saying people don't help with other problems, I'm just saying I'm glad that others share my passions too.

Slide stops are on the way. I also ordered a new combat trigger guard. I'll post as soon as they get here.
