cz 858 stock questions?

How comfortable is the folding stock to shoot with? I got to shoot the full stock version and I quite liked the rifle and would prefer the folding stock but not if the comfort and ergonomics are sacrificed for the cool factor of the folding stock.


Thanks

I shot my 11.8" carbine for the first time last saturday and was pleasantly surprised by how well it worked. I couldn't get a real solid cheek weld, however. I would say that it will depend on what shape your face is more than anything. The stock itself is solid and not at all flexy.

To add to that, I find the beaver barf non-folding stock to hammer my cheekbone something fierce.

When I recently purchased mine it was the only model I had to choose from but was offered a factory rear stock to install myself if I wanted it. I didn't fire one round with the folder since the narrow metal bar with the skinny unpadded metal shoulder pad seemed kind of hokey. I have an OEM folding stock freebee for anyone who wants to pay the postage.

I like my folder. I put a piece of pipe insulation on it and covered it with black duct tape. I saw some other guys on here doing that so I tried it. Looks ok. But is Very comfortable!! I like the ability to fold it makes it quite compact.

Pipe insulation and duct tape. Cheap, easy and effective.

Shot one on the weekend and I myself would definitely not by the folder. It spent too much time bouncing on my cheekbone. Perhaps it could be comfortable with some padding.

The AK under folder does the same thing on your cheek. I like the pipe insulation, looks like a good answer to the problem.

I shot a buddies who had a woven para cord wrap that was 6 layers deep where he would cheek weld. Nice and solid felt really good. Ill try and get him to post a pic.
