If she was a dog this would have been her 7th pregancy with 14 different studs and a severe inferiority complex . . .

What a hack job. First time i ever felt sorry for a gun.

Really? Sure, it's not the prettiest out there, but you can't argue about the effects. Beauty in function. It doesn't particularly turn my crank either but damn does it shoot.

I have a worn out Savage 12ga pump shotgun I paid $40 for that looked like it came through the 7 circles of hell, but it shoots straight with a nice tight choke. Does it look pretty? No, but anything I've ever shot with it didn't complain.

To the OP, nice work. Keep on truckin'.

I guess I get that sentiment if it was a CZ of YOURS that got kidnapped and these were the ransom photos.. but guns are tools, things made of steel and wood (in the case of CZs anyway) and once you buy them, you can do whatever you want with them. I'm guilty of wanting my guns to never look as though they even get used, so this photo history flies in the face of the way I'm wired~but it ain't my gun. If the OP wants to paint it bright orange and use it as a canoe paddle..it wouldn't bother me one bit. Unless he didn't post the photos of course.

One thing is for sure~that's some stellar shooting! Thanks for sharing, pretty interesting post.

Damn near everything i have done to this gun was to make the tool work better for me...

Camo for hunting

Tall cheak riser for the VGM mount to shoot out to 500+ yards

If i wanted it to be purdy like a flower i would buy a new one and not shoot it LOL. But its somthing i bought to use. and if it needs adjusting to fit my liking im not afraid to do it. ha ha, Its a Damn good shooting gun and keeps getting better!

for christ sake either make up your mind or buy more guns lol. I have the "can't leave well enough alone" bug myself. Your stock looks like a mailbox.

 

[midnightpossum]

I feel bad for the gun.... the 452's are so nice you need 2 of them.

 

[Clayne_b]

Another step in the life of my Scout

Hilarious!

In all honesty I have a very strong appreciation for people who purchase something and use it/get there moneys worth. A tool is made to be used, not just sit around. Would I have done the same modifications? No. Is it my gun? No. Do what you want/makes you happy. Tired of people bashing others because there actions do not follow what is portrayed to be the "norm". Keep it up!

Yup. If you want a cheek weld that high you can also do it by eating a tub of Haagan Daz every day for a year but that won't be a pretty sight either.

It probably wouldn't look too bad if you modified it in the way this fellow does his rifles, and you get to see the wood...

By god, THANK YOU.l I thought I was the only one who ever chopped and painted a CZ

You'd have thought I was the antichrist when I first posted it up

 

[LarryG]

It takes a different kind of person cut up a perfectly good stock. If you can't handle when someone does, that's your problem. I'm sure replacements are available, so it's all good.
I am very impressed with that accuracy.

 

[Clayne_b]

I like how you took down that grip on that. I should do it to mine. I broke my wrist very badly 6 years ago. so after a while of shooting the angle i hold my wrist and hand to shoot starts to hurt... Looks good. welcome to I dont give a phuck its my gun and ill do as i wish club. ha ha

 

[clhdluke]

I always thought the point of a gun was to shoot straight...and yours definitely appears to do that. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but again it is a tool made for a purpose. Well done...mailbox or not
