I like the pistol grip. I made one too...

the little square on the mag is skate board tape which is on the end of the mag from bottom to top - the nob on pauls fore-end top is a bubble level that clamps on the weaver rail so I can shoot 1/2 inch groups at 100 YDS - the stock is an ace (THANKS FRANK) - the pistol grip I made -

It's very proportional..... looks really good
 
My guess is that chopper has a Glock given the shape of that grip. I might make a Glock grip too. What the hay......

The tiny foregrip makes sense too. The large ones hinder mag removal.
 
ace stock

Ok, I see the 'AR stock adaptor' on Palinak's site. Did you dremel the Ace stock to make it shorter?

YEP - its a full size, they make a shorty as well. I like the short length of pull the cz folder has so I matched it. It dremeled off real easy and is plenty light and strong. U can store stuff in the stock once the end is cut off. :D
 
Chopper 1, I am seldom the guy to say it because I really like the CZ/VZ out of the box but your mods are great. Nice to see a fore grip that does'nt detract from the rifles usability. The pistol grip to my eye looks like it places the web of hand in the right place for a proper trigger pull.

I am always cautious of second guessing the logic of military accpetance commitees but it looks like you have avoided the bubba pitfalls and made your self a capable rifle.

yep - the grip does just that - I can use my booger pickin finger pad or distal joint - no one else picked up on that - ;)
 
Ha ha! Thanks. I didn't know I had that many posts. I'm most proud of everyone else though. I started out promoting the 58 because I wanted to popularize it, make it widespread, and maybe less scary. I think I have succeeded. Early on, I was lectured by someone at the range for bringing my "AK" to the range contrary to the SAP rules. I think that wouldn't happen.

Today, when someone new asks a question, it is YOU GUYS answer who pipe up. Beers all around.

Deck's winter projects: Romanian foregrip, Yugo thick pistol grip, G36 type metal picatinny rail.
