Best handguard mount for optics on a VZ58?

[Duffk21]

Whats that stock and stock adapter! I need that!

Its a Fab folder, Zahal.org. And TVPP I may steal your idea and put that XTM on my CZ. I like.


And to the OP, I have BCtactical rails on both my CZs. Love them. Solid fit, good price, and look the best IMO.

Should make no difference if it is a CZ or VZ. The Corwin Arms version is good quality and only minor fitting required, a block of wood and a hammer to tap the bottom guard in place. I dremilled a little bit off the front of the bottom hand guard for better fitting. The only complaint I have is the upper guard uses the tabs on the gas block for mounting similar to the original top hand guard (most do). If your gas block is not square to the mounting hole for the bolt/pin it will require some modifying or drilling as the aluminum rails do not bend well.

So were you still able to install the handguard yourself?
Is it uncommon to have your tabs not squared to the rifle?

I have a CSA if that makes any difference.

If you're looking for a solid light and cheap option... Put a NEA upper on the top and a Fab polymer lower on the bottom. No reason for the bottom to be metal and the NEA upper is economical and fits easily. I'm not really a fan of the NEA lower.

I have that combo on one of mine and a BC tactical on the other.

I am wondering about putting front accessories on my CZ VZ58. My main purpose is to put a bipod/foregrip
1. Picatinny frontguard from CSA direct or
2. Aluminun Rail from Fab Defense or
3. Polymer Quad Rail System.

Dead threat revival!!!!!

Does the metail fab def handguard hold zero with a red dot on 7.62?

Cheers

Anyone have the metal fab defense hand guard? Good? Crap?

Cheers

Hey 84wh1, the fab defense aluminum hand guard is rock solid and holds zero really well. No co-witness with irons tho if that's important to you

The iron co witness isn't a deal breaker that for sure. What noun is good for a co witness? Thanks for the reply btw

Then you have Bonesteel or NEA.

 

[iwi]

The only co-witness mount I know of is the NEA one.

 

[paske]

BoneSteel is still lower than NEA.

Bonesteel

NEA

I've never heard of bone steel. Might have to check it out. I guess my only source for NEA is the EE as they don't make it anymore.

I have fab defense, does not cowitness but holds zero
if you put an aimpoint or a trijicon rmr do iron sights matter?

Okay, so there's no co-witness with the fab defense and a micro red dot but how's the cheek weld with the original angle butt stock? With the NEA and bone steel stuff being nearly impossible to get, I'm wondering if I'm going to need a new stock if I want a red dot optic but maintain cheek weld.

Will I be able to use the irons with the Fab Defense handguard with no optics? or will it block the front iron sight on the barrel?

Any Canadian retailers carry BoneSteel?

Interested too. Did a bit of searching and couldn't find any, but just sent Bonesteel an email if they have any retailers up here or do shipping to Canada.

 

[polskadude]

I did the same thing, lol.

Well, depending on their response maybe a combined order might be an idea to save on shipping
