Gun Collectors Dream Auction 63 Day Two
Lot 1074:
Up Next is a CZ-52 Semi Auto Pistol Chambered in 7.62X25mm Tokarev, Overall Appears in Excellent Condition, and Comes With Two Magazines, and Leather Holster With Tool, Dated 1954. The pistol is commonly called the CZ-52 but that isn’t really its name. Its real name is the Ceska Zbrojovka vzor 52, usually shortened to CZ vz. 52. Ceska Zbrojovka is Czech for "Czech Armory". You would pronounce it as Cheska Zbroyovka, and to be authentic, a Czech would pronounce CZ as cha zet. Vzor, commonly abbreviated as vz., means "model". So, a literal translation of its full name is the Czech Armory Model 52.
