CZ Vzor 70 .32 ACP Semi-Automatic Pistol – 1972 Czechoslovak Compact Service Sidearm
Proof-dated 1972, this early-production CZ Vzor 70 offers the classic Eastern-Bloc service design that evolved from the CZ 50. Built entirely from polished blued carbon steel, it retains the extended beavertail, lightened ring hammer, and combined safety-decocker that distinguish the Vzor 70 from its predecessor.

Manufactured in Czechoslovakia, this compact semi-auto uses a straight blowback action and a double-action/single-action trigger system. The heel-type magazine release and combined safety/decocker reflect its military and police heritage, offering secure handling in the field.
The carbon-steel slide carries forward-raked rear serrations and top longitudinal serrations that reduce glare when aligning the fixed sights—a dovetailed square-notch rear and integral front blade. The polished blued finish matches the frame for a uniform appearance.
Checkered black plastic grips provide a solid purchase without adding bulk, keeping overall weight low while maintaining durability. The external ring hammer aids manual cocking and fits cleanly under the extended beavertail, minimizing hammer bite.
With matching serial numbers on major components and a crisp Czechoslovak two-tailed lion proof over �N� dated 72, this Vzor 70 represents an affordable piece of Cold War sidearm history backed by solid steel construction.
