CZ 550 Magnum - AHR(American Hunting Rifles)

Aye Spike, came out well! Thanks for the kind words! Now where is my passport..
 
It's an awesomely beautiful rifle.

I would prefer a sight hood on the front sight ..... but, hey, who asked me?

Have a lot of fun with it.

Strange to think that until the 90's CZ or BRNO rifles were almost unknown in the US .....
 
Very nice work, a beautiful rifle indeed. The wood is awesome and the satin bluing is a perfect fit. as far as a front hood,,,I guess I like them, but, don't feel they are required.

side note; Just pulled my foot out of my gunsmiths ass and I guess I am finally getting my 458 in one month (fingers crossed) as promised. BTW lost my boot up there, butt, I think he got my point. 4yrs in the making, yes,,,,,,,,,, I am a little more than excited.
 
Congatulations on a very handsome rifle. Be careful not to knock that front bead in the bush, though..carry a spare or two if you can. Good hunting..!
 
Beautiful rifle! What does something like that run?
 
hmm

Thanks for the replies! Good point about the "no hood", Ill be careful not to knock it too much.
As for prices, us lefties gets gouged on a regular basis but its about half of what you would pay for a M98 custom rifle from one of the big gunmakers.

More money to spend on hunting!
 
CZ certainly overcharges us left handers.

Unless he has changed, Wayne (AHR) charges the same for work on left or right hand rifles.
 
Left handed AHR DGR which was what I ordered carries a 1000 dollar premium over the right handed version.
I ordered a quarter-rib too bumping it up to 7,6k as well as nitre blueing and some other extras..

But as they say, buy once - cry once.
Its a lifetime investment and the inflation causes the price to soar as the hourly rates adjust - better just be done with it!
 
be sure and post some pics of the targets so we can see how it shoots....:beer:

Forward thinking...LIKE IT A LOT! Wish I had done more of it in this lifetime.

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.

Nice one there. I guided for mulies and elk for about 10 or so years in northern New Mexico.

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.
