Cz 52

[Byron Quick]

I recently purchased a CZ 52 chambered in 7.62 X 25. After about three magazines were fired, the pistol failed to fire several times. Upon examination the firing pin is not indenting the primers. Apparently, the firing pin has broken. I have heard that is a recurrent problem with this model.

Harley, do you:
1) Have the disassembly instructions for this pistol?

2) Do you (or any of you guys) know of a source of firing pins?

Thank you.

And don't dry fire your replacement pin!

Those replacement firing pins...

I have one, a spare, for my CZ-52. Supposedly a better piece of steel, so dry-firing isn't the problem it was with the older version. I'll have to give it a try and report back.
