This CZ 82 uses a simple blowback operating system paired with a fixed barrel, a combination known for consistent lockup. The DA/SA trigger provides a double-action first pull with single-action follow-up shots. A frame-mounted manual safety is present, and the safety levers are ambidextrous.
Controls are fully ambidextrous, including the magazine release, making the pistol accessible for right- or left-handed use. It sports an exposed, serrated hammer spur for positive manipulation. The black checkered plastic grip panels provide a secure hold on the compact steel frame.
Sighting is straightforward and durable, with a fixed front sight blade and a fixed rear notch. The rounded trigger guard matches the military vz. 82 style, aligning with the model’s service pistol heritage.
Markings include the "she 90" factory code indicating 1990 production at CZ Uhersky Brod, along with a small acceptance/proof symbol. U.S. importation is marked by IO Inc, Palm Bay, FL. Matching serials are noted on the slide and barrel hood.
