It's one of the reasons I like to keep a few guns in 9x18 around. The CZ 82 is a great pistol, and the other makes are all solid designs. Before all this crap started, 9x18 cost about 11-12 bucks per box of 50, and I could find it easily enough if I looked. Online had places, and the local Academy had stocked some Monarch (which was Brown Bear, I believe).
Haven't checked Academy recently. But I did get a case of Silver Bear for about $210 online the other day. In other words, the price hasn't moved.
I own a Bulgarian make because I appreciate the elegant simplicity of comblock service sidearms, but I shoot the cz82 more. Very nicely designed and in general better gun. A cz82 is my usual sidearm while out hunting small game.
