Just got a CZ VZOR 70 made in 1981
« on: February 05, 2021, 02:29:29 PM »
It appears to be in good shape after field stripping and cleaning it up a bit. Next to the number 81 stamped on the left side of the slide appears on the left of the 81 some kind of hallmark but my weak 77 yr-old eyes can't determine what it is. Anyone know what it might be? Also on the left side of the slide are the words "Made in Czechoslovakia". It was imported by 58 Imports Orlando, Fl. I'd take a jpeg of of the hallmark but I don't think my cheap-ass camera would be able to make it any more clear than how it appears. In looking further I see the same hallmark on the left side of the trigger guard. It looks like something superimposed on the letter N. Anyway, I'm looking forward to taking it to the range on Tuesday to see how it shoots.

It’s the two-tailed Bohemian lion superimposed over an N that is the proof mark of the Czech Proof House. Have fun at the range...those are not the friendliest sights to older eyes.

Thanks for the info...just one of many things I never knew about this pistol. Yep--the sights will be a challenge but I have to say I much prefer the feel of shooting a 32 ACP pistol vs a 380 ACP. Thanks again for the info.
