cz52
I have just purchased a surplus CZ52 pistol and it has no markings on it other than two matching serial numbers and the import stamp. The serial number is on the left side of the frame and the other on the barrel with a "T" circled (Tula?). The finish is gray. All the other CZ's I have seen have many more markings as well as two swords crossed with two digits in front to designate its year of production on the righthand side of the frame. Mine has nothing on the righthand side. Can anyone give me information on the pistol I have received?

Just got one of these in on C&R. Anyone know where I can download or view instructions on tear down & cleaning?

Harrington makes replacement FP's for the 52. You can find original mags on the on-line auctions or at the various net surplus parts dealers.

The firing pins are brittle and break when dry firing, He may not have known the pin had broken.
$ 45.00 you can buy a redesigned pin and trigger mechanism that really helps the pistol.
One of the funnest guns I shoot. Picked up corrosive ammo for 1220 rounds at $ 115.00. I have 2 of them. Fireball flies out the end, loud, we have a lot of fun with them. When done shooting I pull the grips and dip in hot soapy water and spray CLP on it. Wipe and put away.
I would not buy an original replacement. Google CZ52 firing pins and you will find sellers.0 -
This is a pretty common problem.
CZ52 firing pins are notoriously brittle, and tend to break after only a few dry fires.
There are plenty of sources for aftermarket replacement pins:

Here's instructions on how to REPAIR a broken pin (if you're so-inclined or just cheap):

Replacing the pin is pretty easy and shouldn't take more than a few minutes:

You can probably find a "you tube" video on how to do it, too.0 -
