Thanks for all of the great advice! Looks like I'll be carrying a CZ-82...now to find a holster....

I am considering carrying my CZ 82 as a ccw. Does anyone have any opinions on the safest way to carry it? Since you can't engage the safety unless the hammer is cocked I was wondering how people handle this. I really don't want to "cock and lock" - it makes me a little nervous - especially...

I just bought a cz 82. Should I be able to engage the safety when the hammer is all the way forward? It will engage when the hammer is cocked. I haven't shot it yet - just curious.

thanks!

Thanks, guys! I'll try an original mag next. That makes sense about this being an aftermarket mag - it has almost too much play just to be wear!

If I have any more problems, I'll be sure to let you know!

ok - I made a short video, so hopefully this will help. Basically, you can see it jam when I chamber the round, and when I take the slide off, I jiggle it a little bit and something clicks (not sure what you call that arm thing right above the magazine), and the bullet jumps into place. here it is: ...

Yes, this is difficult to try and describe. Unfortunately I don't have another mag to test out. Perhaps I could look for one and give it a try. Didn't I read on here once that there are differences in mags from the earlier guns and the later guns? Mine is a 1967... If I have a worn mag release (or c...

absolutely sure! the round never actually enters the chamber - it hits the ramp and stops - a bit too low it seems. That's why I was asking about the magazine not being tight...if I just had the extra 1/16 of an inch, I'm not sure that I would be having this problem.

Or I could be crazy...

sorry - let me clarify. I also scrubbed the chamber with acetone and a brush; then I polished the ramp. Neither of these have worked. Is it possible that it's the small amount of play in the magazine?

OK - so I cleaned the feed ramp really well - even polished it - but the slide still does not push the ammo in all the way. Then I noticed that the magazine catch does not hold the magazine up all the way - there is about 1/16" of play. When I hold the magazine up with my left hand and rack the...

ok - thanks norm! I'll give it a try...

Howdy! I am among the newest of P64 owners and I have a question regarding the chambering of ammo. I'm using silver bear JHP and 9 times out of 10 the round is not properly chambered (ie it doesn't go all the way without a little "forward assist). Sometimes I even have to take the slide off to ...
