context_section_description: In 1970, an update of the Vz. 50 was released with minor cosmetic changes and internal improvements  called the Vz. 70 (also known as CZ 70). These changes included:
  New grip shape with a larger recess (Called the "tang") for the web between thumb and finger.
  Milling on the trigger guard was changed to a more blended merge with the frame, removing sharp angles.
  New grip pattern using a grid of dimples instead of grooves.
  Top of the slide is engraved with a fine wave pattern to reduce glare.
  Serial number is stamped on the slide under the ejection port instead of below and behind it.
  Slide serrations are wider and there are more of them.
  Take down lever has a cross hatched instead of grooved surface.
  Larger hammer with a hole in it.
  Smaller magazine release.
  Magazines have new base with a more angular and less curved shape
  Grip extension via a modified floor-plate on the magazine (for the pinky finger).
