Picked up a VZ 58, now my CZ 858 isn't so lonely.

I got frustrated looking for a second 858, only to discover that they are in a shipping/import vortex.

So I folded and bought a VZ 58. It's quite nice seeing as it's already got a black moulded pistol grip and collapsible
Butt stock. I've only handled it for a bit and didn't get a chance to do a side by side to the 858.

I'm wondering if anyone bought the corwin arm 4 mag deal? Did you go with the arsenal "A" grade or the unissued "AAA" grade pack for a few dollars more? I can't seem to tell the difference and think cheaper is better in this instance. Since I will be ordering a 4 pack of mags, any input on flash hiders or other cool swag offered from corwin arms?

My last 858 build was pretty pricey. But the VZ comes half built and I've been sitting on the NEA upper and lower foregrip.

Flash hider either the Czech large muzzle brake, issued to military, or better yet the special forces brake system. I've got a review on here.

My gun is similar to yours, m4 stock, black plastic grip, nea hand guard set, bushnell trs25, and the special forces brake system. I plan to add an ACE AKFX stock, Magpul MOE AK grip, Magpul RVG grip, and then a light, that should complete my build.
 
I bought the four pack of the cheaper ones. Out of the 4, there is a small amount of play with 2 of the mags when seated, and a bit more wobble with the other two. If I were doing it again, I'd try for the the more expensive ones... mostly to see if there is a difference. I'm sure the amount of play with a given mag varies from rifle to rifle however.
