The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - CZ 52: worth buying? What's a good price?

For what it's worth, I bought both of my CZs from Aim Surplus.

I tried probably 4 or 5 different magazines on the one that wouldn't lock open after the final shot. It wasn't the magazines, as none of them would reliably do it in that gun and all of them would reliably do it in the other gun.

Except that the other gun would lock open and stay locked open until I used a flat tip to unlock it.

That being said, if I had a chance to buy an unissued one today...I might take the gamble.
