Anyone replace an 858 barrel with a heavier one or know of anyone with plans to offer replacement barrels for them? Hoping to see something a bit heavier to replace the factory 858 barrel. Want to keep it non-restricted as well.;)
 
I am going to Dlask next week for my custom shorty build and I am sure if there would be enough interest we could convince him to do a run.
 
Shouldn't be much different than rebarreling any other rifle. Project guns.com did a writeup about building a CZ58 from a parts kit, and replacing the barrel with a US compliant one is covered.
The info can be found here: http://www.projectguns.com/vz581.html

A Solidmodel detailing the basic shape and hole locations made in Solidworks can be found here: http://grabcad.com/cadfiles/barrel-for-vz-dot-58-rifle

I'm sure there are other resources, but that is what i could dig up quickly.

Cheers.

Run the idea by him. See what kind of numbers he needs, then we can see if we can generate enough interest here. Thanks!

Just talk to Dlask today and he said that the gas block & piston on this rifle was a custom made for that precision heavy barrel and would cost around $500 to do this build. Defenatly thinking about getting 1 now!
