    I don't see the point in getting a .22 conversion for the 858, with 7.62x39 being still somewhat cheap. I mean if one cannot afford 7.62x39mm, then this might me the wrong hobby.
    I know that rimfire mags have an unlimited capacity, but now with the new magwell adapters for 858s we can use legal 10 rnd XCR pistol mags.

We WILL win - but only if we focus on the fight and not the flight.

    Just because you can afford 762X39 doesn't mean saving $190 per 1500 rounds isn't a good thing. It would also be nice to go to the range with my CZ and not have to go through my corrosive ammo cleaning ritual.

    A 22LR conversion kit would mean a lot more training for me.

    This is the 1st I have heard of the conversion...seems pretty logical to me. It would probably be a pain in the a*s to switch back and forth but Ill wait til NS chimes in with the actual details...I cant speak for the rest but I betting bfiles has an itchy trigger finger just waiting to hear about this conversion.....but until then ...fight, fight, fight, fight.....it makes for more humorous reading

    I've owned my cz 858 for abit now, and i've done all the upgrades etc to is, the one thing i learned from all of it is, don't mess with a platform that works.

    Buy a 10/22 for your 22 plinking.

    To add, to those that say its training that they want it for, i wonder how do you train with 22lr compaired to 7.62x39, since 22lr has alot more drop then the regular round does.

    The whole "cant do .22 in a .30 barrel" is hilarious. All you engineering whizs should let Ceiner, Lage, FN, HK, Enfield etc... know that the 308/9mm conversions they've built for decades can't possibly work.

    Just one of many examples: http://www.22lrconversions.com/ak-pg.htm

    ditto on that exact paragraph. No hard cleaning/ cleaning at all and can pop off thousands of rnds in one outing.


    Yes I can afford lots of 762x39 ammo if I want, but sometimes it is nice to just shoot of some cheap and fun .22lr.

    Yes there is a barrel liner for them, take a look in the red rifles section and you will see the new thread titled vz 58/ cz .22lr conversion.
    i rest my case, oh wait, case closed!!!
