Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Czechoslovakian CZ 82 really owes its origins to the Russian Makarov PM, which was itself heavily influenced by the Walther PP series. Both are blowback, all-metal pistols with quite a bit of heft to them. The heavier CZ 82 weighs in at just over 2 pounds loaded. But the real link between these guns is their cartridge, the 9x18mm Makarov. This was the replacement for the zippy 7.62x25mm Tokarev round favored by the Russians in World War II and the beginning of the Cold War. The 9x18 round falls between a .380 and the 9mm Luger. Indeed, it was basically the Russian’s answer to the NATO adoption of the 9x19mm.
Despite its size, the 9x18mm is actually quite powerful for the limits of blowback pistols of the era, and Eastern Bloc countries like Czechoslovakia eventually changed their pistol calibers to match this new Russian round. The CZ 82 boasts an ambidextrous thumb safety and magazine release, making it the first service gun to feature both. The Makarov PM featured a heel magazine release, and the thumb safety doubled as a decocker when put on safe. But CZ opted to drop the decocker in favor of a 1911-style safety that allows users to carry with the hammer back and a round in the chamber with the safety on. While this is a double-action pistol, the safety can only be engaged when the hammer is back. The double-action trigger effectively gives you a second-strike capability.
