This is the RAREST Vz. 58 Rifle: The Vz. 58 Sport
This TFBTV episode features James Reeves interviewing Stanislav Strizic, an engineer involved with the CZ-75, about a rare, unreleased competition variant of the Vz. 58 rifle. Only two prototypes of this unique Vz. 58 Sport exist. The discussion delves into the Vz. 58's design, which, despite outward resemblance to the AK-47, features a distinct short-stroke gas piston system and bolt locking mechanism. It fires the 7.62x39mm cartridge and is noted for its lightweight construction, utilizing aluminum alloys. The Vz. 58 was adopted by the Czechoslovak military in 1958.
