Anyone still buying CZ anymore?

SigWig said:
No.

If you want to feed it SK ammo then before the fiasco I'd say go CZ mtr (accurate)



If you want to feed it cci sv (cheaper and available) go Tikka t1x best bang for the buck

CCI sv is very slightly over sized and I wouldn't shoot it in a CZ match chamber
...



some say norma tac-22 shoots well, Haven't tried it

I have a CZ 457 and it shoots CCI sv groups aren’t as tight with better ammo
 
I like CZ and will continue to buy products. Our government is the problem not these companies. All these elbows up r*ta*ds telling you what to buy and where your money should go but still vote for the gov't that is doing the damage. I'm going to buy me a CZ 457 long range precision and then go winter in Arizona with my snow pesos. Elbows UP!

We have seen the effect that just not participating can have. There is no way for the buyback to happen across a big part of Ontario because opp said they didn’t have the resources. Alberta and Saskatchewan have now said no outright. If Cz had declined, there wouldn’t have been many other companies in Canada that could do it. There isn’t any other licenced firearms company that has a big enough manufacturing/destruction facility (other than maybe savage). If everyone in the industry had said they can’t do it, the buyback would still just be on paper.

Pretty sure the people not buying from the Colt group of companies for their participation in the buyback are not voting the Liberals back in. That's possibly the dumbest thing I've read today and I read a lot.

I guess I have a different perspective... I wouldn't put off enjoying any gun that you want to enjoy right now... You're literally allowing the government to dictate what you will or will not purchase and enjoy. That almost seems like one more way they're winning.

Lookin' at the umbrella... I don't think CZ USA had any input, control, or were even consulted. Colt is under CZ group, yes... If we are to go with a family tree analogy everybody is going off like it's the equivalent of a 3 year old asking mommy permission to play on the swing... This is more like a 42 year, old second cousin with a drug problem that you haven't seen in 14 years just committed armed robbery... Seems a little absurd to forfeit your enjoyment of a rifle you've been wanting because of the actions of someone else?

Also... Colt has always danced to their own tune, and have never respected the civilian market (in my opinion). They lap up government money left right and center, and I'm at a loss for how anyone is surprised at all.

If we were to place bets 5 years ago on who was going to take the contract, I think 9 out of 10 people in the industry would have put money on Colt Canada.

Colt Canada did it in exchange for the new 500 Billion contract to supply the new combat rifle.

They knew they would eat SH*T from the gun community but $$$ talks.

That's my take
 
I have three 457's and they all shoot amazingly well.

Thinking about chopping them.

Probably wont but I am looking at the Springfield 2020 offerings.
They take 10/22 mags and R700 triggers !!

I just have a lot invested in Chassis and accessories so it chaps my @ss !!

So I had my eye on buying a very accurate rimfire in 2026. My Ruger 10/22 is good but I'm at the point I'd like to upgrade.

I had thought a CZ457 would scratch that itch but with the gun "buyback" fiasco and the fact that Colt Canada (of which CZ is the parent company) took the contract to destroy the "buyback" guns I am not even considering a CZ anymore and instead will investigate buying an Anschutz even if it costs a bit more.

Anyone else still considering CZ as a company to deal with at this time or is it not even an issue as far as you're concerned?

Well, ethically speaking you could by used. Those manufactured before the betrayal. That way you don't put money in their pockets.

Match chamber? Hard bolt close?

I have a 457 MTR and it likes CCI SV just fine. CCI SV and Norma Tac both shoot equally well and are my go to cheaper ammo.

But, if I do remember correctly, I think CCI SV didn't feed well from the metal mag for some reason, but I stopped using metal mags years ago.

Sorry but they need to taught a hard lesson. You don't screw your customers like that and expect support. Buying their product now would be like supporting the resale value of their goods. Not doing that.

I'm sure they know what went on with Colt Canada (or they're very poor business men) but chose to distance themselves instead. Sorry not buying it.
