What New Magazines Would You Like to See for the Vz58?

[TV-PressPass]

Just brainstorming out loud here: If we were going to get new magazines in Canada for the Vz family of rifles, what would they be?

Here's what I came up with:

• 7.62x39 40 round extended mags pinned to 5
• midsized 15 and 10 round .223 polymer magazines pinned
• 10 round 7.62x39 magazines stamped as "Vz58 Pistol"

That last one is kindof a holy grail. Are there any Vz58 pistols in Canada? I know they exist in the US. Is there even an FRT number for them?

I think that would be pretty cool. . .

5/40 rounders are almost here so yes i cant wait for those.
As for the 5 or 10 round 223 plastic mags sounds good but i dont shoot a 223 csa so it doesnt apply to me

 

[prevost12]

Anything that shoots 10,rounds without having to buy a conversion magwell

Whoa. Tell me more?

7.62 x 39; 5/20 and 5/30 Polymer mags in different colors. Black, tan, green.

+1 I agree

7.62 x 39; 5/20 and 5/30 Polymer mags in different colors. Black, tan, green.

I would love to see that too, as long as they were quality polymer mags.

More mags? I can't even find the 5/30 round mags in stock anywhere, some more of those would be nice.

5/40 rounders are almost here so yes i cant wait for those.

Where can I pre-order?

 

[bfiles]

Whoa. Tell me more?

Presspass- these are 7.62x39 mags tho. Thought you were a 223 guy???
Once I recieve mine I will test it and let everyone know how good they are and where to buy unless the that person speaks up

I would love a metal mag for the 223 vz58. Hate the plastic ones.

Curious about these 5/40s that bfiles speaks of.

Haha I would settle for a magwell that didn't involve machine, wasn't made of plastic and maintained original functions.

+1, 5 rounds makes me weep every time I shoot my 7.62 vz58 carbine.

It hurts my brain when people call it a Vz.

Vz is short for "vzor" which is the Czech word for pattern, design, or model.

So calling it a "Vz" makes no sense without the model number following it.

I know, a minor thing, but once you know what "Vz" actually means, it's just weird to call a rifle a "Vz."

I'll crawl back to my enclosure now...

Same thing could be said for "AR"... AR15 means Armalite Rifle 15. People use the term AR for pretty much any company's AR15 variant, although AR could refer to any Armalite Rifle model. The AR180, the AR7, the AR10, the AR 30.....

But then we'd be getting into a whole new type of mag vs clip debate.

are you having one made from a RPD mag ? i did one a few years ago so it is doable .

Yeah I hate when people call AR-15s just "ARs" because its their brand name. It's like you're just calling your gun an "Armalite" and its silly to combine with another brand name. "Check out my Noveske Armalite!"

And the Tavor! Come on people. Tavor is a mountain. TAR-21 is a rifle.

I've been known to dabble in other calibers.

I do recall the one you made, these are manufatured for the CZ out of 40 rounders. So in a sense yes it is like yours just on a mass produced level.

@Presspass, good stuff man. Thought you were purely a tavor kinda guy.

 

[TV-PressPass]

I'm just loudest when it comes to talking about the Tavor.

That and my skillsets with other rifles are limited:
