I've had a bit of trouble with mags... can expect a FTF or two in each mag!
Found a factory-new mag and feel better about it with that set-up.
It's been very accurate out of the box
A nice buy!
I own a cz-82 in 9x18 makarov.When I purchased it I was looking for a small weapon I could easily conceal.I wasnt familiar but with budget factors and it having a large capacity compared to most ther .380 calibers I thought it was a good choice.I only paid 150 for it.Had a lil holster wear on it but mechanically sound.It has about a 1000 rounds through and the only FTF was due to poor ammo.Stay away from wolf.I carry hornady critical defense in it for carry and use silver bear with both using JHP.They perform the same but the hornady is the XTP and seems to expand better.I buy ammo from J&G sales in 500 rnd lots and save 8 bucks a box compared to what I can get locally.Even purchased locally it is not bad as it is 20 for 50 rnds.The more I shoot it the more I love it.The best holster company I found is Falco.They have a great selection for the 82/83 holster.I did some homemade ballistic gel test and it performed really well producing on average 10 inch penetration.
