CZ-858 Folding Stock

[cz52]

I am not sure if anyone has theirs yet, but mine has just arrived today, via Canada Post. I am happy with it, even if it seems used and I'll be even happier when I manage to install the damn thing. Also it comes with a spare screw.

I got one for my vz.58 when I ordered it from Marstar. It's okay. Not the best to shoot with and I don't like to fold the stock much because the butt plate rubs against the side of the receiver. It's cool to have, but the regular stock is better for actually shooting.

I just put black hockey tape where the folded stock meets the receiver.

Mhhhh...hockey tape, good idea. It should be easy to find, here in Canada

Was your from Marstar just as scratched up as mine?

It looked fine to me. Scratched up where? All over?

yup had mine since march 2005

they suck to shoot with looks cool but thats about it

Could prob. cut and weld tubing from the locking mechanism to the but plate, make it look like an Ace stock no?

 

[sixty9santa]

Why bother?
You already spent some cash on it, leave it stock.
I plan to get some grey abs plastic, and "carve" out a cheek piece, one day...

An AR 15 stock adapter will be available for these soon.

I put a piece of foam pipe insulation on it looks like crap but much nicer on the face when shooting

Meuh...Ar sstocks do feal a bit too wide to me.
A funky mix of east and west....fugly, but functional.

I'm more interested in a B&T type rail setup, now we're talking.

It looks as if it has been used before.

Oh wow, mine's nothing like that. Mine looks practically brand new.

Just the opposite for me... My folding stock was brand new but my VZ 58 had a few miles on it when I got it.

 

[cz52]

Oh well...no big deal.
As you guys might know, the folding stock was not shipped with the initial batch of 858's by Wolverine. For some reason, they were unavailable in October/November '05. Maybe they stole a few from the Czech military in the meantime.

Just a quick reminder: VZ-58 - Marstar
CZ-858 - Wolverine

Mine's a Marstar vz.58. I bought it with the max pack or tac pack or whatever the heck they called it, but it included a folding stock.

Maybe you're lucky and a Czech military one was "forgotten" in the crate. Maybe it works in full auto.

CZ52: You get that stock from Wolverine? I'm still waiting on mine.

simple cheek piece

to make a simple cheek piece for your VZ folder go down to your hot water tank and remove a section of the pipe insulating foam (or buy some at the hardware store).

It slips easily over the stock, remains reasonably firm and is very comfortable!
