The content, which was borrowed from another message chain, is good enough to warrant a place in the FAQ area, too. Boogaloo tells me that forum member DLEONG originally posted it, so credit for the original work goes to him. My thanks to both of them.

Except in pre-B CZs, which have a tighter mag well (and then, only pre-B mags or certain factory mags will even fit), the mags can be made to drop free with a simple adjustment to the mag brake.

Take the grips off. Remove the top pin holding the flat metal plate that covers the mainspring/hammer spring.

You need a steel punch of the proper size, although a blunted nail will sometime work -- depending on how firmly the pin is installed.

1) Remove the slide.

2) Mask the top of the slide around the extractor pin if you're wary of marring the finish.

3) Drive out the pin from the top through the bottom of the slide.... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Walt Sherrill) http://czechpistols82792.yuku.com/topic/14695 Mon, 22 May 2006 14:11:23 GMT <![CDATA[ Firing Pin Removal in a "B" CZ. ]]> http://czechpistols82792.yuku.com/topic/14696/t/Firing-Pin-Removal-in-a-quot-B-quot-CZ-.html
Remove the slide.

Using an appropriately sized punch (or a cut-off nail), drive the firing pin retention roll pin through the slide, until it is mostly out of the slide. (You don't have to remove it completely.) A roll-pin punch is ideal, but you can get by without one.

Turn the slide over.

(aka What Is a Magazine Brake?)

Often, new owners of the modern production CZ pistols are concerned that their magazines seem to hang up after pushing the mag release. The magazine drops for roughly an inch or more, then stops. At this point, the magazine is easily removed by hand. This should occur even with a fully loaded magazine.

Understand that you don't need to clean the gun every time you shoot it. Some folks like to do that, but it is unnecessary. A lot of this type of "discipline" goes back to folks who were trained by the military in gun care during WWII and who, in turn, trained their children in the same manner. Ammo in WWII was very corrosive and cleaning after use was critical.... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Walt Sherrill) http://czechpistols82792.yuku.com/topic/14698 Sun, 04 May 2003 03:51:39 GMT
