Product Overview

- patented push-down plate on bolt carrier to prevent misfire issues (Czech Small Arms vz. 58 firearms are the only vz. 58s manufactured with this vital part to ensure reliability)
- drilled and tapped side rail holes in receiver for do-it-yourself side rail installation for optic mounts (side rail and optic mount not included with pistol)
- semi gloss/matte black finish cured at 300 °F over phosphate.
- two 30 round waffle-type pattern magazines (AR15 magwell adapter sold separately)

Pistol includes the glass-filled nylon US made trigger. If the Czech steel trigger is preferred, please scroll down to the bottom of the page to purchase the steel trigger and it will be installed before your pistol ships. Section 922(r) is not applicable to the vz. 58 pistol model as it is a pistol and not a rifle. The color of the finish is a matte black coating (cured at 300°F). Hammer forged barrel is made from a high quality Chrome Molybdenum steel (4140) and IS chrome-lined. The muzzle nut is removeable and the thread pattern is 14x1 right hand (standard vz.58 thread pattern).
For those that receive an approved BATFE Form 1 SBR (short barreled rifle) for their vz.58, the sling swivel screw can be removed (receiver sling plate is held to the receiver by sling swivel screw). Once the sling swivel screw and receiver sling plate is removed, any vz.58 stock can be readily attached to the vz.58 receiver. This is a great 'do-it-yourself' Form 1 SBR. SBR Warning: a stock can only be legally attached to this pistol after a Form 1 has been approved by BATFE. Attaching a stock to the vz.58 pistol, without an approved Form 1, is a federal felony and conviction could result in 10 years imprisonment and a $250,000 fine.
Drilled and tapped holes for the receiver side rail ARE included in the purchase price of the pistol. In other words, you can easily install our optional side rail by removing the two screws in the receiver and screw on the side rail with a hex/Allen wrench. GUNSMITHING IS NOT REQUIRED TO ATTACH THE SIDE RAIL TO OUR VZ.58 PISTOL. Do not forget to use high strength thread-locker on the screws while attaching the side rail. To purchase the side rail, please see the vz.58 spare parts section (part no: VZ58-59R) or type VZ58-59R into the 'search' window and click on 'receiver side rail.'
The magwell adapter, to use USGI M16/AR-15 magazines, is sold separately as an accessory and is not included with the purchase price of the pistol. For information and purchase of the magwell adapter, please visit the vz.58 spare parts section (part number VZ58-6G) or type VZ58-6G in the 'search' window.
