Hello,

As the header states I am looking for a source of pinned magazines for the CZ 52/57 rifle.

Canadian supplier?

No new ones are out there. Used ones show up in the parts and bits equipment exchange forum from time to time.

This came up in another thread started by Annie: SKS-D mag question, (its actuallyabout CZ mags):
http://www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum/showthread.php?t=321838

Something to be aware of is the difference between the VZ 52 and VZ 52/57 mags (see the thread).

I have one I will be selling but I am not posting it in EE yet because I can't guarantee when I can get to the post office at the moment.

As a tip - I tried Vz.52 mags in the 52/57 - they interchange....

sometimes they wont feed reliably tho.

+1 on that.

I've used Vz52 mag in a Vz52/57 and have the occasional feed problem - the rounds have too much slop front to back. I think a 52 mag could be made reliable if a block were arrached to the front inside of the mag and the follower shortened accordingly.
