Marstar VZ 58 barreled actions

[#1bcshooter]

Did anyone else buy one of the VZ 58 barreled actions from Marstar's specials section ?
Whats up with the block welded in the receiver in front of the hole for the trigger . won't let a bolt & carrier close !

I baught it and had to buy another bolt carrier that they sold with a mod done to it. TO allow it to close. Also the front barrel threads were mared up and also the barrel and chamber were so badly corroded that it took me over 3 hours to scrub clean with JB bore bright and cleaning compund. To make a long story short it costed me alot of money but at least they did accept my return as I gave up on tring to make stuff fit. Here is some pic's showing my issues with them. Take note on the CZ 858 on top with out the tab and the CZH 2003 below with the tab and also what apears to be grinding behind the extractor;

Your pic's didn't come through . Where did you get the carrier ?
So far all my parts from a CZ858 parts kit fit except the bolt carrier .
The barreled action I got is as new

 

[broncoo]

hhmmm this must have been an old deal i assume

 

[#1bcshooter]

That's why I'm hoping someone will post pic's of a CZH2003 inside the receiver & the bolt/carrier
I've had a non restricted CZ858 for 4 yrs & a parts kit . Marstar sold off some CZH2003 restricted & non restricted barreled actions a couple months ago in there specials section.

Sorry about the photo's. Here is some revised link's so you can know see the pic's;

Can you post a link to the Marstar page where you bought these. I can't seem to find reference and I'm curious as to what they cost when you bought them.

Those issues are nothing a milling machine can't fix.

I assume people were planning on getting Wolverine parts kits for these VZ's?

 

[alexD92]

Those are the same receivers used for the VZ58L.

 

[David_K]

How much did these cost?

 

[mark k]

I think I paid $160 for a stripped Vz58L and $99 for the parts kit from Wolverine. It took me 45 mins to assemble and 5 with the Dremmel to make the carrier fit as per the guys at Marstar's instructions. I got lucky, my bore is Exc. and the trigger feels great.

 

[Curtton]

is there a way to tell if a VZ58L is built from a kit?

 

[millwright]

How long ago was this guys?

 

[Claven2]

I wish I hadn't missed it! I would have bought a VZ58L barrelled receiver FOR SURE.

What about it John? Got any hiding?

 

[OC-3]

Yes, when did this happen??????

 

[mark k]

About 2 months ago is when I first saw the add. I jumped on it the same day.

If possible can you PM me with what you had to do

 

[Claven2]

If I had one, I'd be able to get it running with a standard bolt carrier If anyone in Ottawa has two and wants to trade one for having theirs fixed, let me know
