Maybe only Bfiles has both units, just wondering which one is better made. I'm thoroughly impressed with the craftsmanship of my Zastava Skorpion. Fit, finish, stamping, bolt machining, everything is excellent. Just wondering if there are any differences. I saw on a YouTube video that the safety latch may be a polymer on the CZ, it's steel on the Zastava. If the CZ wooden grip is larger, I want it. I find the grip on the Zastava to be a little small for my XL hands.

What do you guys think (who have both models)?

I cleaned a lot of gunk off of my receiver walls and the feed ramp. Make sure you clean and lube these Zastava's. Not the best vid, but a disassembly vid of the CZ Skorpion:

No difference with either gun really. No polymer anywhwhere except grip on the CZ. Iwould say the CZ is better craftmanship wise but the zastava is excellent too.
Cz is original while the yugos just copied it.

You not happy with your skorp now??
 
I'm ecstatic. It appears my 2nd may go up for sale, as my friend may not be able to pay. I didn't budget for 2, otherwise I'd keep my 2 with sequential serial #'s.

Is the wooden grip longer or thicker than the plastic one?
