I'm trying to find a CZ 82 or 83 in good condition.  I can't find a single dealer with them in stock and I've tried third parties with ZERO luck.  Anyone have a lead on them or when there might be another batch imported?

I'm also looking for a parts for possible future repairs.

I picked up an 83 in really good condition for under $300 late last year on GB.  Every now and then I see an 82 there that's in pretty good shape.  I don't think they're going to be imported anymore.  Get what you can while you can.

Found what I wanted.  Picked up two sequential serial CZ83s 380acp In G-VG condition for $520 guns, ship and FFL.  

I'm  considering putting a 9x18 CZ 83 barrel in one or after i get a pcr i might pickup an 82

I'm glad you found a couple you were looking for. 82's and 83's can be a bit difficult to find sometimes. CZ doesn't make either anymore too. I really like the history of the 82. So that's the one I always have favored.

Parts can be challenging. Here's a few sources with a few things:

Enjoy them. And I highly recommend you get an 82 if you can sometime.

Thanks for the links.  I saw CZUSA had parts as well.  I'm putting a parts list together.  Springs, extractor, mag parts.  Any parts recommendations?

I still want an actual 82 but I'm picking up a PCR next.

Probably easier to get an 82 than swap barrels on the 83.

PCR is a good choice.

Parts:
recoil spring(s)
magazine spring(s)
firing pin/springs
extractor/spring
magazine catch parts (I've never had an issue. But some people think that area can be problematic)
other various parts like the hammer, sear, disconnector, firing pin stop would be a horrible idea. The guns are out of production after all.
spare magazines...Just be careful. If you're not aware. For a few years, all sorts of places have been selling or sold magazines made for the vz. 82/cz.83 as well as the vz. 52 pistol. The baseplates are stamped "mfg CZ" on the bottom. All these places sell them and describe them as genuine CZ manufactured magazines. Either they're lying or misinfomred.

Those "MFG CZ" mags are complete junk and a waste of money and are more than likely knockoffs. Avoid them all. Few examples:

Buddy  has one of these. Bought it back some years ago when they were value priced. They are harder to find now and more expensive. Of course they don't import them any more for a reason. I told my buddy if he ever had problems with his, just pick it up and slide a new P-07 under it and all his troubles would just go away.

I use to want an 82/83 but then I got a P-01 and never looked back. The P-01, the PCR, the P-07, etc. sort of killed the market for the 82/83.
