VZ 58 Receiver Side Rail

[powah]

Hi,

any one purchased Receiver Side Rail sold by Czechpoint-USA?

I looked at their website and they do not mention any bracket, so it seems that they install rail directly on to receiver?

Also, any drill, tap gurus? I need to drill and tap metric 5mm hole. Do I need to drill 4mm. or 3mm. pilot hole?

Tapping the receiver walls of the VZ58 isn't all that great an option, the thickness is literally 1/16" and the threads will tend to strip. Compression rivets are a decent option.

But I would spot weld with a tig on the back side of the rivet to prevent minor movement in the future from prolonged periods of use.

Tap the rail not the receiver.

Cool ideas, thank you.

So, the best approach would be to drill the receiver, then use rivets and tig weld them on the inner side of the receiver?

I have a bag of CZ factory rivets used for their bayonettes if you want some.

Don't have to weld...Just need to drill and screw into the rail from the inside of a receiver.

we have developed a rail (for POSP side mount scopes) with "window" to see the serial number through....

the rail is here:http://interammo.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=27&products_id=67

You know, you could just re-stamp the serial number elsewhere if seeing it were a concern

true. but if you install our rail no need to worry at all...

The Ak rail worked fine but i have ordered the new 1 and will be easy to attach a shell deflector to it. Thanks to Interammo for the great products they offer.

I am just getting around to mounting this rail, but it disappeared from the interammo site??? I want to get the install instructions, but now I am wondering why it isn't there.... Getting concerned...

Simple, we removed them from the website because they are all sold. The shop we had the rails made for us is not interested in our new order at this moment. Quotes from other shops are through the roof...once we find reasonable manufacturer we will get these rails back in stock. PM me if you need installation instructions.
