The vz. 50 follows the proven Walther PP/PPK-influenced layout, adapted by Česká Zbrojovka for Czech police and service use. This example bears the slide legend "CESKA ZBROJOVKA NARODNI PODNIK STRAKONICE" with the circular CZ crest, aligning it with Strakonice production.
Controls include a heel-type magazine release, a manual safety that also functions as a decocker, and a loaded chamber indicator. The pistol uses traditional DA/SA blowback operation with an exposed spur hammer, emphasizing simplicity and service reliability.
Sights are fixed and practical: an integral front blade paired with a fixed square-notch rear. The slide has rear vertical serrations for positive manipulation.
Construction is all steel with a blued finish and brown plastic grips featuring horizontal ribs and the CZ roundel. Matching serial numbers are visible on the frame and the barrel breech through the ejection port, and the serial falls within known vz. 50 Strakonice production ranges.
Chambered in .32 ACP, the pistol has a 3.8 inch barrel and 8+1 capacity. It includes one 8-round magazine equipped with a finger-rest baseplate.
