Looks in nice shape, but I'm no fan of the type. A dumbed down Vz 24 is what I call it. Any time you go from locked breech to straight blowback it has to be counted as a fail on the part of the designer.

I think it is cool. Good job!

I seem to recall and local fella had one for sale with the war marks on it. Think he wanted around $900.00 for it, about a year or so ago.

CZ guns I have always thought are high quality.

This was my very first center fire handgun, even same holster. I probably only put a few hundred rounds through it, I was about 14 then.

These shoot pretty good in my experience and a 32 ACP doesn't need a locked breech. Nice pistol with accoutrements!

I have one, with the holster, GI bring back. A little clunky by our standards, a good solid piece of machinery, a good shooter, yes a 32 ACP does not need a locked breech-the Frommer Stop, e.g.

My nephew has one that his grandfather brought back from the war. A later manufacture than yours, 1944 I think and a bit rough around the edges. Holster and one mag and not nearly as nice as yours!

I see this "doesn't need a locked breech" argument quite bit regarding 380 and 32 caliber guns. Simple fact is locking the breech just makes for a better weapon. My Star SI and the slew of 380s we own agrees with me.

The CZ-24 and 27 were designed by Josef Nickl. The March 2018 issue of American Rifleman has an article on experimental and prototype Mauser handguns, mentions Nickl designed handguns using a rotating barrel in 7.65 Parabellum, 9MMP and 45ACP.
