Which flavor (7.65 Br, 9x17 or 9x18)?

Great pistols (vz82 / CZ83). I used a vz82 (9x18) to shoot my CCW qualification.

Robustly built with sexy lines [emoji3]. Fine shooters. The grips can be the weak spot...screws loosening while shooting (some people use O rings) and can crack. Also, here?s an interesting thread in the forum concerning a drop-safe issue.

What year is it? The newer ones have the 2-digits year on the right side of slide while the older ones have it on the right side frame. Congrats on the purchase.

CZ-USA has some of the parts for the vz82/CZ83. You can check the parts finder on their website. Numrich might have them.
