Had to look that one up thouht the CZ-83 was just a CZ-82 with a 380 barrel or was told that ! I have never seen one in 32acp but would welcome it to my colection 15ds for the capacity is good small cal firepower, and hapens to be one of the smaller favorite cartridges I like shooting and find acuracy usually verry good with the CZ pistols. 8)

Does anybody have one? Thinking about ordering one next week in 380.
an unloaded wepon is equal to the same mass and volume as a rock.

I have a CZ83 in 380acp, a CZ83 in 9mm mak, a CZ82 in 9mm mak too.  I been looking for a CZ83 in 32acp too.  I did pick up a CZ50 in 32acp a while back from www.allans-armory.com  There's two cz82's and a CZ85DB 9mm luger in the center pic.  My CZ50 isn't there yet.  All of my cz's are double action on the first shot too.  My CZ85DB is amberdexterious. (sorry for the miss spelling) The cz82 and cz83 are a tad different there not exactly the same pistol. If you look at my pics of the cz82 and cz83 you can see some of the differences like the trigger housings.

Remember to checkout the used CZ's in your local gun and pawn shops you can get them still in excellent condition at a used price.  Most of the used ones here aren't shot or shot that much.  I'm finding new guns in the used sections.

My cz's have been flawless.  The CZ82 in 9mm mak is my new CCW gun.
I thought the CZ82 in 9mm makarov would have less bark over the 9mm luger round.  But thats not true the 9mm mak barks just as much as the 9mm luger round.  The CZ75 is the choice of the russian spec ops.  The CZ's design is flawless.  My hats off to them for there quality in manufacturing its spot on.

I installed new wolf recoil springs on all my cz's.  I went up two sizes stronger to cut down on the recoil and over travel plus it cycles faster because of the less over travel too. Ok I can empty a mag faster. But it handles much better.  The strength of the recoil spring used depends on the ammo your using too.  I only shoot russian wolf fmj ammo.
