bore on a CZ 82

[daveInME]

I just got a really nice CZ82 from SOG
it was in really good shape, no wear marks, nice accessories,etc
really pleased with it.

1 question though.
the bore is nice and shiny and completely void of anything resembling rifling.
nothing, nada, zip.

I'm assuming accuracy out of this would really bite

so....it couldn't have come out of the factory like this?
is there a place that sells barrels for these guns?

TIA,

thanks for the link,

it had a link to
http://www.freeexistence.org/vz82.html

that had
" Unlike the vz 83 which incorporates traditional rifling, the vz 82 has a polygonal rifling much more subtle than that seen in Glocks, Steyrs, and other modern pistols with hammer-forged barrels. Upon casual inspection, the bore looks quite uniformly smooth; probably a better light source would better show the rifling."

now I'll finish cleaning and lubing it tonight and take it out back tomorrow and see what it can do.

picked up wolf 100gr FMJ fodder this morning.
this things got a bit of a kick to it.
it shot low and right,
all the shot were on the paper at 70 feet, not saying too much.
but since this is going to be a wall hanger, doesn't really matter all that much.


now to clean up and get some ammo for the Nagant revolver I also bought from SOG.
another relatively clean, good bore gun
has the Tula mark from 1937 on it.
