Anyone ever tried one of those folders? I kinda want one. Looks like it projects straighter down the rifle compared to the original stock (no chance of a cheek weld and my eotech/scout mount combo on original piece)

More Progress. First I have developed a new tool for the VZ. I call it the Fah que
guy who installed the stock bolt on my VZ screwdriver.

It is made from 3\4 hex stock and makes it "relatively" easy to get the screw out with a 3\4" drive socket and a 1\2" drive Johnson bar.
Anyways, here is the quick attach.

It is missing the clamp\unclamp screw. This screw is double action as it tightens the radial slot against the round and pushes
it back open on undoing. I have used this design at work and it has been in operation there for about 5 years and gets cycled about 30 times a day. SO as far as standing up, it has already passed that test. I have yet to add the compression relief slots that get machined as half round's on the same center at the top of the small hole but on the outside of the part. The current release pressure is about 20 pounds but the slots will reduce it to about 5 pounds. Upon closing of the quick attach the radius force's the part to ride on the flats of the mount eliminating any radial "play". When this locks up it is solid. It takes two full revolutions of the screw handle to go from Locked to Release. Not as quick as some cam action designs but I think it is good enough. I tried a test with it locked up with the indicator on the prototype(not shown) and it doesn't move. Full update tomorrow.
Let me know your thoughts.

anyone interested in flash hiders for vz58?
Interested in some R+D, rip off and develop anyways
What do they go for and were?
I am glad I am not the only one. Ive seen the thread but seriously that is crazy.
I was thinking about starting a business selling torque wrench's in the Czech republic

Help please.
I recently purchased a CZ858-2 from Wolverine.
I disassembled and wiped off excess oil.
I took it out to the range yesterday, and after seven rounds, it shat the bed.
The problem is that squezing the trigger no longer does anything...the bolt moves fine...but the trigger is not working...of course disassembly is also a problem right now due to the trigger thing.
Is this a common problem? is there a quick fix...should I be calling Wolverine and sending it back?
What do the gurus have to say.

before you send it back, you should disassemble the trigger group and clean it real good with solvent and then lightly oil , test by dry fire (empty chamber and no top cover, angle the rifle down) .

This happened to a friend of mines new riffle first time out because he didn't clean it thoroughly before he used it ......
If the bolt won't disengage at the pull of the trigger you won't be able to take the rear cover off ....the way to disengage the bolt is to take the pistol grip off push in the pistol grip bolt block ....and use a screw driver to pull the spring down that disengages the bolt .....after that you can take the rear cover off and properly clean the riffle and oil the parts. ....
To test the bolt carrier slide and trigger with the back cover off point the riffle down pull the bolt carrier back, it should slide forward by gravity alone....press the trigger and the bolt should also slide forward on its own just with gravity ......if this test works you should be good to go.

I just received my CZ-858, there is probably more drool on it than oil but the exterior of the rifle wiped off very easily and there is certainly no 'gunk' in any nooks and crannies to 'see'...
So, when I field-strip it I have to try to remove all of this oil from everything I can access? I kinda figured that thin coating would be beneficial, is it really that picky that the trigger group is 'dry'?

Curtton and Palinak are now my favourite CGN posters. Thanks for the help.
Rifle seems to be working OK again...will have to range test to be sure.

I would de burr and lightly polish the disconnector and sear where they meet this is usually the cause of your problem the smallest burr can snag the disconnector and stop it from re-engaging sear as the disconnector spring is rather weak
mine didnt.
same here, gives me a chance to inspect it for defects and how the internal works.

That's half the fun of guns. When I get a new one, I take it apart and painfully put it back together. When I got my Nagant revolver a year or so ago, I struggled to get the trigger mechanism back together.
