Removing stocks
To answer the PM, and for the new 58ers here:
Remove the butt plate. The bolt that retains the stock is on very tight. The first time I removed a stock I used a very long flat tip screw driver and and combination wrench on the handle. Others have used tire irons. I later made this T-handle tool.
The forestock is removed by pressing out the small pin at the rear of the guard and lowering it out of the receiver.

+1 on the tire iron. Wow was it ever tight!
Also a question for the board. How come wolverine's parts kits don't come with a barrel yet the kits in the states (priced the same) do?
Also why is a 3 euro mag, $35 Canadian!?
And don't tell me it's a 5 cent pop rivet...

joe n said:My family in CZ have offered to send me a wooden stock for my CZ858, I have never seen one, but they swear this stock is just incredible. Anyone have any feedback on the wooden stocks? Thanks,
Joe

Yeah, I'd like to see some pics of that stock also.
On another note, I saw about 5min of the show called 'The Unit' tonight and it looked like some of the bad guys had VZ58's.
On ANOTHER note, how long you guys think the current LOW price of 7.62x39 will continue for?

I think there is quite an abundance of Czechoslovak army surplus ammo still available.
And since they are not allowed to sell to the domestic civilian market it all goes for export.
On another note from what I was told by one of my Czech suppliers, CZ-UB is not producing any more 858s Tactical or Tactical-2. So unless something changes and they do another run we might not see anymore new ones any time soon. CZ-Hermex has no plans in stopping their assembly of the CZH-2003 and CZ-Praga is making long barrel versions so we might have those here instead for the non restricted market.

Lieberals at it again. Take note.
The Liberal Party of Canada is holding its' Liberal Leadership and Biennial Convention in Montreal from November 28th to December 2nd. Two of the policy resolutions to be debated and voted upon are very relevant to firearm owners.
It will be interesting to see how they are dealt with. But, regardless, it shows that the federal Liberals have not changed their mindset regarding firearms ownership in Canada.
