Neat little .25 ACP.
The current CZ 92 is basically the same pistol - a slight redesign but nothing much.

A relative of mine sold his Mauser 7.63mm Broomhandle and bought a similar CZ. Basically he wanted something he could carry easily. Anyway, he showed it to me one day and asked me to try it out. Now, I've fired some of these 'pocket pistols' in .25,but am not really enamoured of them. So I pull back the slide to load it and the whole slide comes off in my hand and the spring goes flying off somewhere out front. Promptly handed it back to him. I'd prefer to keep my hand as it is.

I'm not sure which model it was but I'm sure it would be nothing less than 40 years old. Meanwhile, the Mauser was in pristine condition with the wooden holster nicely clad in leather. Was really sorry to go out from the family.

samtron, don't get me wrong but .25s are notorious for their inaccuracy. I think the IOF rev. is a much better deal.

hi
i wanted to carry a handgun and not get noticed i used to carry my revolver in ankle holster however it was not comfortable to carry it at ankle due to its weight , this pistol can be carried in front pocked of my jeans and still not get noticed it is as big as a smart phone , as far as the accuracy goes i have fired about 10 shots till now and have managed to hit all the shots in 3ft X 1.5 ft target at 10 mtrs , however i feel the power of .25 round is limited

Did a bit of research on Internet....It sure is a cute little pistol.. :cheers: ..In Country like India where old vilayati :mrgreen: Handgun costs a limb, it's not that costly either....no point in discussing stopping power and all as long as you are comfortable carrying it all the time and able to hit the target...What's the point of carrying something powerful yet uncomfortable...something which can't be concealed properly..JMHO..

Agreed. One should always have something that one is comfortable with. As far as stopping power is concerned, even a stone picked from the wayside and hurled at your adversary will have have stopping power!

samtron, enjoy it, shoot safe, shoot responsibly. Most importantly, take pride in the fact that you are an armed citizen.

We have a couple in the family . One imported directly many decades ago by my maternal grandfather. There was quite a liking to the pocket pistols amongst the elderly that I have met. I was told these served well as closed or confined area SD options- there use was restricted to limited situations but effective. With so many options available in those days I am not suprised ppl had a firearms to suit each occasion or situation. Here's one I am holding in my hand that gives an idea of its relative size.

Congratulations Samtron ... on having in your possession the only double action only (DAO) trigger that is still available (legally) from the pre-ban imported cache of arms.
I have fired this weapon several times. Its a good pistol and serves the purpose it is supposed to.

Congrats and Good luck my only experience with 25 cal was a distant relatives French pistol. It was notorious for misfiring. I would personally hang on to IOF guns due to various reasons. Cheers
