CZ 82 Problem

[Gik-tal]

I have a CZ 82 that fires and feeds fine, one problem, the slide will not lock back on the last round. I tried some silver bear ammo and it would lock back about half the time. If I pull the slide back by hand it lock every time. It does this with two diffrent magazines. I was thinking that maybe the recoil spring would need to be replaced as I checked the slide lock and it moves freely, changed magazines and no change, can anyone thing of anything I might try before I order a new spring and try that?

Yes, try a different brand of ammo.
You have proved by your function checks it is not a gun problem.

Apparently, the Silver Bear ammo doesn't have enough poop to fully cycle the slide.

Changing to a weaker recoil spring to shoot that one brand of ammo would not be wise.

Sorry did try a couple of diffrent loads forgot to mention that, the silver bear just did the best of all of them, brown bear never locked the slide back, I had some older norinco that I tried as well as some Prvi all did the same thing.
