If I didn't already have a P64 I'm keeping, I'd be getting a CZ 82. Classic has some on sale.

Like any other milsurp import, these are the products of yesterday, in some cases 50 or more years ago, supply is limited. One day the supply dries up, that happens with every milsurp import, and then prices climb as demand is still around even if supply isn't. Wouldn't it be great to buy a Soviet 91/30 for $40, or a British Enfield for $25? Never again. You can still get all of these things, but now it will require a larger application of cash, and more looking around.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.
