Atlantic has VZ58's again (I've got to quit checking my e-mail because it keeps costing me money).

If they took ak mags I would already have a few of those years ago.

Folks this was a custom run that Czechpoint did for Atlantic and we do not expect this to be a long term sku.

They have sold out already, glad I already have mine with barf and an original set of beech too.

What is the difference between this and the VZ2008 that was sold a few years ago?

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By cjk: What is the difference between this and the VZ2008 that was sold a few years ago? The receivers are slightly different. To put a side rail on my 2008 required killing the mount to fit. The rifle shoots great though so it doesn't hurt anything. That $399 deal was awesome. |

I like the vz58. I used to have one. Was $499 new at the time.
I put a quad rail on it, and an adaptor for an AR stock. AK74 style brake. Handguard mounted aimpoint. It was pretty sweet. Also found an obscure part that adds a bolt release. It would extend down from the bolt hold open channel on the bottom of the reciever, and add a button to drop the bolt. Was pretty natural to hit on mag changes. Miss that thing. |

The VZ58 is an excellent design. Machined receiver, tipping bolt, bolt hold open, gas piston. It's more like an FAL then AK.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By kilroymcb: If I recall, the VZ2008 was made by Century and lacked the tabbed bolt carrier. Couldn't mount the bayonet. Also the CSA guns have Lothar Walther barrels. They had the bayonet lugs still and their package came with one bayonet, the cleaning kit, mag pouch, and 5 mags. Pretty sweet package for $399. I went woth modern furniture for a while when it was one of my only rifles. I have since went back to beaver barf and folding stock. |

Just curious, how long ago were they selling for $399?
Over the years I’ve wanted one of these so bad but couldn’t get past the “doesn’t take AK mags” part. Kicking myself now since I just bought one from AF for $1300. Mainly buying now just to add to the collection but I’m sure I’ll shoot it and probably love it so much I stop shooting my AK’s. |

The locking arms swing to lock and unlock the bolt. |
