Thoughts on the CZ 600 Series?

If this is innovation, count me out.

There is no craftsmanship in the CNC’d manufactured firearm. Nor any soul of the hunter. Not my cup of tea.

Once they made rifles, now they make commercial products for lower end market.
The same company once made combination guns, ZKK rifles and legendary pistol CZ75. Where they are now?
Now lets wait and see, when they will make a new firearms product of significance, worth noting. So far this is not on the horizon.

At one time cz was one of my go to recommendation when some one ask for a good rifle or handgun.
No so much anymore

We are on same page. I have two of their phased out products plus one fully customized.
Now I dont see anything of my interest in their current production line. (post 1964 syndrome?)

Everything CZ have made since they stopped there CRF rifles, the CZ550 Safari and especially their little 527 mauser has been a let down to be honest.

I shouldn't have sold my collection of Safari Mag's, only have the Rigby left and a little cz 527 .17 hornet.

I also have a cz 452 Varmint .22lr, shoots lights out.

I also have my late fathers Brno Model 1 "TGF" these were made for the Germans in WW11 as a training rifle I believe.

They need to get back to their roots, currently its a race to the bottom for them.

Pretty much like every other firearms manufacturer. They all claim their current models are better but the truth is cheaper to manufacture is not better. It is just cheaper. I don’t care if it is the most accurate rifle ever made, plastic crap has no soul and there is no craftsmanship. Guess I am now restricted to the used gun market.

Your Model 1 TGF was probably made for the GDR, a.k.a. East Germany, in conjunction with the Brno 1950 Volkspolizei M98K rifles. I own and use one of those M98 rifles. Need to get busy and load some more ammo for it!
I understand that the Model 1 was a postwar development. There is a sticky thread in the Brno/CZ (CZ/Brno?) page on Rimfire Central forum which covers Models 1, 2, 3, 4 (standard and Swedish), 5 etcetera; plus Arab world versions of the Model 2 that were made by Egypt under licence and subsequently in other countries. A nice deep rabbit hole to lose yourself in! Cheers from NZ.

The accuracy is the cheapest quality in rifle, in production.
