Topic: Anybody have any experiences with the CZ 58?

Yeah, we stock them at Basin Sports. We carry the one with the black synthetic skelitonized stock. It's a nice rifle, but it's different... Takes some getting used to. Striker fired rather than AK like hammer fired. Doesn't use AK mags... so the whole thing is unique. Which is why Soviets didn't use it. But due to the light weight, some Spetznas did.
I think they are worth it.
Don't know anything about a folder version.
Shooting them, they shoot great and the one I fired is more accurate than your average off the shelf AK.

Thankee for the info.

Hmmm, what ammo were you using, ye olde standard Wolf steel case polymer?

I'm thinking about handloads with some premium componets for 7.62 X 39 mm in the future. I'm using a portable reloading bench right now but it is not big enough or rigid enough for my Dillon 550. I'm cranking out pistol ammo on a Lee Classic four hole turret press right now.

http://www.atlanticfirearms.com/beta/storeproduct624.aspx This is the outfit that had the folder, but I don't quite trust them. I understand that CZ had to do some tweaking on the reciever in getting it to work well when making them for semi-auto only. I'm worried the Atlantic imports may be something like the CAI crack monkeys have put together in the past.

I'd kind of like a folding stock since my transport is a motorcycle right now. I figure if I put a folding stock on the CZ V58 I'd violate some damn BATF content rule.

Wolf HP and Golden Tiger FMJs... all shot great.
