Gun Collectors Dream Auction #83 May 2nd & 3rd TWO DAYS - NO RESERVES - 1200 LOTS!
Lot 1474:
Description
This lot consists of seven blued steel single-stack magazines designed for the CZ-52 semi-automatic pistol chambered in 7.62x25mm Tokarev. Each magazine features four diagonal witness slots on both sides of the body to allow for visual verification of the remaining ammunition. The magazines are constructed of stamped steel with a blued finish and include a floor plate with a finger extension. Key markings include the incised characters C, Z, m, f, g, . followed by a three-digit number on the base plates of several units, identifying the manufacturer as Ceska Zbrojovka. The internal springs are visible through the witness holes and appear to be under tension. These magazines are consistent with standard military issue for the Vz. 52 sidearm.
Condition report:
The magazines exhibit a range of conditions. Several units retain a significant portion of their original dark blued finish with only minor handling wear and light scratches. Other magazines show more pronounced thinning of the finish, particularly along the edges and high points, with scattered patches of light surface oxidation and brown patina. The followers move freely under spring pressure, and the feed lips appear to be in good structural condition without significant deformation. The base plates are securely attached.
