There seem to be lots of 452 Lux and 455 Lux rifles. I'm wondering if anyone in Canada has a 453 Lux. Over on RFC, they are saying that only 50 of those rifles, the CZ 453 Lux, were recently imported into the United States. Is it a hard-to-find rifle? Or are there older 453 Lux models out there and those 50 referred to are only the most recent of the 453 Lux's available? Does anyone in Canada have one?
 
I have one and shot it for the first time today. Very nice and even more accurate. Ordered it from a shop in Calgary the first week in July and it landed here last Tuesday. I like the pull of the set trigger but not the action of setting it. That action feels "harsh" somehow. The trigger is still very good and better positioned with out the set. Beautiful furniture and excellent checkering. Not sure on production numbers, but I thought the guy in Calgary said he had 6 of them when I was there in May. It made for an excellent 50th birthday present, thanks Dear ! I have a 452 Lux that I still enjoy very much. They are a great line of rimfire rifles.

Some "new" 453 Lux models have made it to Canada, after all. According to the fellows on RFC, the stocks on the "new" 453 Lux are different than the stocks on the 452 Lux.
Roy, does your new 453 Lux have a stock like the one in this photo?

My 453 lux has the same stock like the one in the above photo.
 
The stocks on the 453 is quite a bit larger then those on the 452. Thicker, longer and much heavier. The 453 stocks are the same dimensions as those on the 500 series rifles. Roy
