Manufactured by the Czechoslovak firm ∆í√•eská zbrojovka — and bearing a striking resemblance to the original John Moses Browning handgun design — the CZ-83 is based on the CZ-82 9×18 Makarov, originally designed as the sidearm for the Czechoslovakian military in the 1980s.
Design
- The CZ-83 is a 12-shot single/double action semi-automatic blowback pistol chambered in .380 ACP.
- The fixed barrel design and trigger yields very good combat accuracy.
- A low bore axis provides for less muzzle rise and quicker follow-up shots.
- The frame-mounted thumb safety and the magazine release are ambidextrous.
- The barrel bore is chrome plated with polygonal rifling.
