Items With the Old CZ Logo

[Hurryin' Hoosier]

Where might one obtain caps and/or t-shirts with the old Česká zbrojovka CZ logo (not the new stylized "pistol" emblem)?

 

[Cokeman]

What does it look like?

 

[EstPA]

This one?

 

[Hurryin' Hoosier]

Actually, that brings up yet another question. There was one logo which consisted of a "Z" within a ring of rifling marks. There was another (the one which I was thinking about) which was a "z" within a "C" with a small "v" at the top. I'm wondering which of the two would be "period-correct" for a CZ vz.82.

This one?

That's the one I was thinking about. Would it be correct for a CZ vz.82?

This one?

And that's the other one.

Which one would be correct for a CZ vz.82?

 

[EstPA]

If it is a surplus 82, I believe it is the correct one. The Z one is the BRNO logo.
It is confusing due to the nature of the Czech arms industry.

Look at these:

Yeah, that goofy-looking block pistol whatever-it-is that they're using now definitely ain't it. I'm thinking that the first one (Z-inside-C-with-small-v) would be the right one, too.

Meanwhile, I think that I'll go have another Pilsner Urquell and mumble curses against Reinhard Heydrich.

He's talking about this logo:



Our official shirts have the CZUB die cut logo:

I never get any stuff with the old logo from the factory these days.

Vintage motocross race; saw Jaroslav Falta at the last one I went to.

Yes, the old pistol in a bore logo from CZ-UB is being discontinued, which is why we got written permission to use it on t-shirts.



Best keep in mind the MANY different incarnations of the CZ logo over the very many years, as Czeska Zjborjovka merely means "Arms Factory", so is relatively un-trademarkable.
I think I remember seeing the "v" mark on a European made SiG clone in the lst ten years or so, might be wrong.

That logo is more or less the Czech version of the 'made in America' logo. I think it can be pretty much universally used by anybody who makes anything in the Czech Republic.

There ya go! I'll keep an eye on czforum.com and get one as soon as they're available.

That old logo rocks, would pay for hats an shirts if we're available

Different brand.
This "Česká Zbrojovka" is too busy making such toys:

 

[armoredman]

The link I found shows they make car parts under that logo.
http://www.czas.cz/?PageId=10003 They haven't made guns since 1946. IF that's the same outfit - same logo, but trademark laws are different overseas.
Whoops, found it, yeah, makes some guns now. http://www.luvo.cz/index.php Same logo. Pistols look a lot like Tanfoglio Force models.
