CZ 858 update

[Mr Wolverine]

CZ 858 update.

Wolverine Supplies will no longer be importing the CZ 858 rifle into Canada. Our last two shipments (Dec 2012 and Feb 2013) were detained by CBSA, they sent three samples to the RCMP for examination who informed CBSA that they are prohibited. Last week we finally got word that we had successfully returned the rifles to CZ. At this point in time we still do not have any written report on the rifles that were examined. We are now informed that as we have no rifles from that shipment in Canada we have no grounds to appeal the CBSA decision to the Customs Trade Tribunal. We have heard all kinds of rumours and speculation but nothing that we can base a sound business decision on.

Regretfully we have no choice but to cancel all outstanding back orders for the CZ 858 rifle, in all models. Anyone who had placed a deposit will be getting a full cash refund.

We are extremely sorry for any inconvenience that this may have caused our customers.

RCMP...keeping people safe.

RCMP at it's best. This is getting to be really frustrating.

Is there still an existing active frt# for the cz858?

 

[jwillmoore]

This is very alarming. The RCMP may go after all the CZ858s in Canada.

Some of us may loose a favorite rifle.

This is a very sad day in deed.

 

[The Joe-Man]

This is absurd. Did either the CBSA or the RCMP give any indication about why these rifles were prohibited?

 

[TV-PressPass]

Well damn

 

[gregb]

Was there something different about the manufacturing process in these latest models that have caused them to be deemed prohibited?

 

[dalebrown5546]

Were the samples deemed prohibited, or was the whole family of CZ-858's deemed prohibited? 2 different things.

Guess it's time to hid the old girl away at the cottage for a bit...

Hate to say it but.......... TOLD YOU SO!!!

 

[the_klenzer]

...and why does the RCMP get to change the classifi... .oh nevermind.

Were the samples deemed prohibited, or was the whole family of CZ-858's deemed prohibited? 2 different things.

Thats the question.

So I guess they finally decided that it looks too much like an AK-47.

Can't say I'm surprised.

After they officially declared the Akdal shotgun an AR-15, nothing surprises me anymore.

I was so close to buying one of these, but when all this info came out awhile ago, im glad i didn't. its a shame, they are lovely rifles.

unbelievable...they better not prohib all CZ858s. There will be many pissed off people and lost firearms.

 

[supahdave]

Wasnt the shipment mistakenly a full auto vz-58 order that was supposed to be sent to another client in another country and therefore of course they are prohib? A manufacturers shipping screw up? Wolverine can you comment if that is true?

 

[dalebrown5546]

unbelievable...they better not prohib all CZ858s. There will be many pissed off people and lost firearms.

But that's just it! How will people know they have a newly-restricted rifle in their safe when they don't check these forums! It's just insane. We all need to get answers as to the real status of the CZ858...ssems like the VZ-58 has fallen free from all this....or has it?!

 

[brapjack]

....ummm should we all panic buy?
