Awhile back I decided to change my CZ82, 9X18 Makarov to be a CZ83, .380ACP. That seemed like a simple thing to do, all that was needed was a CZ83 barrel. Well I got a barrel and a barrel vise and was going to set to work. Well the barrel vise was designed for the Makarov gun and would not fit the CZ. After careful consideration, I decided to modify the barrel vise so it could be used on the CZ. This was more involved than the entire operation but I am suborn and succeeded in modifying the vise. The actual barrel removal and replacement was simple. I have had the new CZ83 to the range a couple of times now and it shoots great. Let me know if anyone needs a barrel vise for a CZ82. 193286193283193284193282
Pictures have been added. Unfortunately, I would have to take the gun apart again to show it mounted in place but believe me it does work.
