If i had a couple hundred beans to spare right now, I'd be in there already. I'm down to my last 6 bucks right now, and heading out to work again in the next couple days.

Maybe I shouldn't have posted so many pix. He's getting weak. Buy food first, bud........then gun.

I was smart enough to follow that.... well, the g/f bought the food. I paid my other bills down

Just wondering if the CZ factory employs Gorrillas? The screw in my buttstock seems like its G%D D&mned welded in there I cant get the screw out

Old story. Get a long handled flat screwdriver. Put plier on the handle.

Tried that I smashed the stock (Ive got spares) with a hammer and vise gripped it out

Dude.

Dude.

Wow.

OK. I am going to make a long T-handled screwdriver by welding two rods together and grinding a blade. Maybe every range with these 58s should also do so.

Thats nothing, You never heard the cursing. When I work on my car the whole neighborhood hears me, Im not mechanically inclined

My latest addition...for a real man's hand. LOL I haven't figured out what finish I will make it.

Damn nice looking pistol grip Deckard! I can't wait to get the rifle in my hands so I can start doing some custom work.

 

[Grizz Axxemann]

I'd love to get a feel for that grip, Deckard..... the factory grip is a touch on the small side for me.

 

[Deckard]

One inch longer, 1/4 inch wider, thicker at rear, minimal thumb rest.

I broke my stock tring to get the bolt out as well. luckly I had another one in the parts kit.

I am making a stock tool next week.

 

[Grizz Axxemann]

You're covering ALL the bases now, aren't you? How about a sight rail?

 

[Deckard]

Doing that too if you can believe. I think I have it worked out. A rear mounted scope mount is in my mind. This photo got me thinking.

You would think there would be someone out there that sells armourers tools for the VZ? Shiat! I found one place that was selling an VZ 58 Armourers chest? What the hell am I gonna do with an empty chest ?

Lee Valley sells a giant screwdriver that works well for stock screws. It's also good because the shaft of the screwdriver is square instead of round so you can put a wrench on it for extra torque.

A tire iron with the big flathead for taking off hubcaps is said to work wonders.
