I just ran across a "like-new" CZ-27 pistol. I know it was built at the Strakonice plant between 1945 & 1950. Can anyone tell me what it's worth? The only other one I ever saw at a gun show was in lousy condition so I couldn't make any price comparison.

Anyone have a clue?

Thanks!

Steve

  Hi all,
  I have a mint condition cz27, ser. # 22xxxx, dull blued, marked on the top; BOHMISCHE WAFFENFABRIK A.G.IN PRAG. It also has the top of the slide ground and polished, with the following stamped in:
  POLITI Nr. 3274. That number is also listed on the frame. Any idea of the year, or value?
  
  Got this from a WWII vets widow, and is like new in the box, never fired. Any info would be GREAT !!
  
  Thanks
  
  John

  The CZ 27 was one of the most common handguns used by the Germans in W W II. Believe that over 400,000 were made. Because of this they have never been big buck collectors items. The only exception are certain variations with police markings, or the ones set up to be used with suppressors.
  
  The "POLITI Nr. 3274" markings on yours most likely are post W W II civilian police markings. Years ago, I vaguely remember a bunch of similarly marked pistols were imported and sold on the surplus market. I believe they were used by the Norwegian Danish police, or from one of the other police forces in the Scandinavian countries?

  My WAG with that serial number probably 42/43?. Value with the post war police markings, ( Which would be a turn off for a collector of German WW II firearms. ) $200/$300.

  Sorry! It was Norwegian after all. I got this photo off the net. Apparently they used a whole spectrum of different pistols for their police. Any thing that was functional.
