  • It is best pimped out and dressed up, a far cry from an NDP convention.

I heard from a reliable source that Dlask will be producing the ar-15 stock adapters that eliminate the downward tilt of the factory stock, I've been waiting for something 1 piece to come onto the market to try...Apparently this month or next. If someone from Dlask is reading this, a nice smooth adapter like the one below would be appreciated. (I copied this picture location from an American webpage)

I'm not from Dlask, but I doubt they have anything like that in their books.

Im interested in one of your VZ58/ CZ 858 AR stock adapter's. Any chance you plan on making them so the stock rides level with the barrel instead of following the inclined angle of the factory stock?

Thanks

and their reply...

Hi, all depend on the interest in this model.
I will manufacture limited number of pieces next month and start advertised
and we will see.

Thanks Josef

Ukie,
Those 858's overall are a great rifle. Even if you have a gremlin (which is not too often from what I've read) it is not too difficult to fix, and worth the effort to correct. Besides that, it's part of your Eastern European heritage, so you must get one.

im not concern with the gremlin , i have 2 CZ858 and will deal with it if and when it arises . actually i will be buying restricted one soon.
 
I bought mine used and brought it to the range yesterday. I shot 120 rounds through it without any problems. At 100m I could hit a 3'' plastic skull I found lying around. Beer cans were no problem at around 125. I used a 4 MOA red dot on a rear side mount.
For someone who was used to shooting an SKS for the last few years, this was a real treat. Definitely recommended.
