I've had the same problem with mine since I got it years ago. At least 1, 2 , or 3 times per magazine, the slide does not return to full battery for the
next shot. This requires about a 1/16 to 1/8 inch bump forward on the back of the slide to fully close the action for the next shot.
I always figured it was weak recoil springs, so I not only got the factory standard replacement from Wolff Springs, but every weight spring they have for the CZ52, and tried them all. None of them work, same old thing no matter which spring I use. I've always shot handloads out of it, but I don't think its the problem. A buddy of mine has one and when I shot his several times with milsurp ammo, the same thing happened.
I mess with this pistol about every 6 months and then put it away in disgust.
Any tricks guys? Maybe I'm missing something simple.
