Hi Daniel, welcome again. My son bought one without import markings he was told by the gun shop was sold by someone who bought it like you bought yours. I'll tell him about your post as he may have some questions. He's something of a CZ nut so I know he'll be interested. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Yes we were allowed to purchase them when we were stationed there. The local Rod and Gun Club at McNair Barracks in Berlin was where I got mine and wish I still had it. It was stamped as being made in Czechlasovakia (or however it's spelled) and not the Czech Republic. It was a very nice pistol to say the least and was my favorite as well but when someone wants it so bad they come up with a ludicrous amount of money for it, it's hard to pass that kind of money up for a pistol. I believe I got $1,500.00 for it. I would kind of like to know what the actual value of it would be on today's market. Anyway, the pistol was fantastic but the black coating chipped easily. That was the only gripe I had about the weapon. It outshot every weapon I owned at that time. The other weapon I bought at the Rod and Gun Club was the Walther PP with an East German makers mark. I sold it as well but wish I still had it also. |
