I just bought a 602 in 375 H&H and desperately want to age this rifle if possible. It's not good enough for me to accept it was made sometime in the 70s or 80s if I can somehow narrow it down further. Ive heard about records being difficult to come by thanks to past Communist regimes but am looking for some assistance from any knowledgeable Brno guys. This particular rifle has the express sights and deluxe Monte Carlo type stock with a brown fore end tip and pistol grip cap. I can only find a couple pictures of this stock configuration on the internet and those rifles appear to be mostly in South America. There are plenty of 601 models with this stock design but I can't find many in the 602. Thanks for any assistance.

Look at the rear left side of the barrel/receiver junction. Are there two numbers, for example, "62"? That would be the date.

Does it have a pop up receiver sight? If not it was apparently built later rather than earlier. Don't know how rare ZKK 602's were with the montecarlo in Canada...I have a pair of 602's...one in the 'classic' style stock and one in a Monte Carlo style. Pragotrade did hold stock for quite a while before it turned over so when made and when sold could be significantly different dates.
