Cz Vz 58 Capacity
Chambered in 7.62x39mm, CZ’s VZ-58 was Czechoslovakia’s (Current day Czech Republic) attempt to design their own rifle firing the Soviet standard cartridge. Available with 10 and 30 round detachable box magazines, the VZ-58 reloads in similar fashion to the AK47, yet its open-top design allows the user to top off the magazine by feeding clips through the open receiver and into the magazine.
Cz Vz 58 Feature
The CZ VZ58 is a semi-automatic rifle chambered in 7.62x39mm and operates on a short-stroke gas system. It has a 16.1 inch barrel and a Bakelite stock, grip, and handguard, though wood furniture is available on some variants.
Cz Vz 58 Mobility
Slightly shorter and slightly lighter than the AK47, the VZ-58 excels as a handy rifle running through the woods or navigating in close-quarter environments.
Cz Vz 58 Ergonomics
While the VZ-58 can be easily mistaken for an AK47 by the untrained eye, this rifle’s only comparisons are the ammo compatibility and the curved magazine. The VZ-58 utilizes wood or Bakelite furniture with contours and geometry far more comfortable than the AK. The rifle’s safety is placed more akin to an AR15’s fire selector.
Cz Vz 58 Fit-N-Finish
The VZ-58’s wood furniture is finely sanded and then stained to protect against moisture, while the versions with Bakelite furniture sport a somewhat glossy finish. The black finish on the metal components is uniformly applied, and the internal components are built with tighter tolerances than the AK so you’ll find nothing rattles when you shake the rifle.
