I stand corrected :)

Just back from a hour at the range checking zero on my deer rifle. Took my AK and VZ for an outing as well. AK as always a huge amount of fun. VZ wow.... I am one happy camper...... Now to fit an optic. Red dot and or a scope... So happy with the VZ. 55gr Barnul no hard extraction issues and both the USGI and RG (SA 80) mags functioned flawlessly. Happy to have two eastern bloc rifles sat alongside the other residents in my cabinet.

The new Vz58 "trigger release" is tempting, I reckon I may have to save up for one and at £1750 they are loads cheaper than Bobs £5K .223 Lever Release, do you go for 7.62x39 or .223 though ? decisions decisions.

What's a VZ58 "Trigger Release"?, can't find anything about it.
There's room for all Gods creatures, next to the mash and gravy :)

Saw it at Bisley today. The rifle self extracts using gas pressure but the bolt is held back until the trigger is depressed and released. The bolt then comes forward and loads the next round. The next trigger pull fires the round.

2 triggerpulls for each round after the first with no manual operation of the bolt. Not semi auto just a well exercised index finger.

Sounds interesting, How would you compare the action and speed compared to the SGC lever release system?

7.62x39, original Vz round and milsurp ammo is cheap :)

I like the sound of this trigger release thingumy, shame you can't get an AK like that, i'd be on it like a tramp on chips! :)

5.56 is fairly cheap too, and they do a magwell adaptor for AR mags.
