Anyone know where I could buy one of these? Looking for the non-restricted model with chrome bore. Cheers Roscoe

check the dealer links.
I think you can only find cz858, as for chrome bore, that's a rare find these days.

 

[bfiles]

Yeah the non restricteds with chrome bores seem to be a thing of the past now

 

[saskcop]

EE may be your only hope.

 

[Stevo]

Lots of them had headspace issues, too.

I snatched mine off the EE the second I saw it. Hadn't seen another this year.

I was looking too when I picked up my 858 a couple months ago. Talking to the guy's at Wanstalls then and they told me it's a lost cause trying to find one.

The new CSA carbines are chrome lined, are they not?

 

[bfiles]

yes but they dont have a non restric 18.6" 7.62x39 for sale as of yet.

wasn't that the problem with the barreled actions they sold last year or so? Ive got 1 of the original non restricted chrome bore vz58L that Marstar brought in about 3 years ago, never had any issues at all. which btw will be up for sale in the EE soon, due too a new addiction "AR FEVER" lol

Also some parts need modification for it to work and the recievers are different.

For me, yes. Tried the whole range of locking lug things, thanks to help from wolfgang @ Wolverine, but no luck.
The bolt carrier had to be grinded down in the rear(?) a little.
And the trigger parts, from the parts kit, needed a little modding as well.

Will be getting it rebarreled, probably in 10yrs at the rate I'm going, because of the effort and time invested. And to be a little different then everyone else.

IIRC, Trigger needed trimming to fit, spring is to keep the sear from walking away.
