This video explores a fascinating prototype of the 9x19mm vz.52 pistol, a conversion project undertaken by CZ in the 1960s. Aimed at generating hard currency through export to the Western market, the Czechs sought to adapt their existing vz.52 to the more desirable 9mm Parabellum cartridge, avoiding forced production of the Soviet TT-33 Tokarev. The prototype, retrofitted with a new barrel and ejector and marked 'vz70', ultimately faced the same ergonomic, reliability, and durability issues as its 7.62mm predecessor. This led to the Belgian business partner shifting focus to the nascent CZ75, a more promising design, effectively ending this particular development path.
