Nothing illegal, Just if the Hand guards and pistol grips from an AK could be retrofitted to fit the VZ 58? Those Czech military personal must have wee little hands like Mini Me (Austin Powers) :D
 
NO AND NO nothing from the ak series will fit without modifications the handguards are too short from an ar the pistol gripe could fit IF you carved it down
 
The AK stock could be retro fitted I guess. I'd pay good money for this as I have the wood Grip and handguards for the CZ and would love a stock to match.
 
Anyone wanna make an AKs-74 folding stock copy for the Vz?

The only thing keeping me from buying one of those VZ/CZ things is the furniture. If AK stuff fit, slap it on and gunkote the rifle black. :)
 
Well you got me statred now Norseman!!! I got out an old AK stock I had for a project I never did and started widdleing. Right now I have the stock on my CZ but where the AK stock touches the rifle is a little too thick so i have to plain it down. If I get it done by tomorrow I'll post a pic.

It should look good! :D
 
Ok. Here it is. Right now fit and function are excelant. Two problems remain:
1.) The spot on the top of the AK butt stock where the Trunny is ancord is empty with the absence of the trunny tail. Solution: Get an AK Trunny, cut off the tail, screw it on and the CZ/VZ buttstock cap will hide the end anyway. Thing is, I HAD an AK Trunny but I sold it. Oh well, I'll have to look for another one when I get the cash.
2.) As you can see, the spots on the stock when I had to plain are bear wood. I have to stain them.
Now, Anyone know what kind of stain I should use to keep the "orangey" color?

try home depot..they got a wide selection of coloured stains..lots of red and orange shades...
 
Wow Ljungman, that looks facking amazing. Its odd how much some real wood with a nice stain can improve the look of a rifle. Give us a review on how much better the AK stock is then the CZ stock once you get to test it.
 
Sure will. I think I'll brose some hardwear stores tomorrow is see if I can find the right stain. I want the buttstock to match the grip and handguards as much as possible.
 
If I had a pile of AK stocks around I'd do just that. It wasn't hard, But I did have to gut the inside of the stock cause the hole had to be drilled in an odd place. So this AK stock no longer has the ability to hold the SKS type kit....unless I modify it a bit more....
