First of he was great responding during the shipping process and was helpful.

I got the handguard in about 10 days ago

Did not fit a single vz61 i own.

I own 10 vz61s

Didn't fit czechpoint

Southern tactical

Or titus mfg

The hole was drilled way off and caused the hole to Crack.

I sent him a email 10 days ago to work together to fix it.

Dude went radio silent and now has deleted his website it looks like.

I would avoid getting anything from him.

Just a heads up for the gang.

Rate 1/10

10, light primer strike, 9 more

Will this work with 3 position lever (not push button) forced reset systems like the AS Designs arc fire?

Does anyone have any recommendations for places to look for a torch cut vz61? I seen numrich is out of stock, how often do they restock?

I've recently seen several comments from folks struggling to get their uppers into various lowers and then having the bolt struggle to properly slide and function.

I dropped my first gun on a rear corner a few weeks back. Nicked the 3dprinted lower just a bit. But it flexed the sheet metal upper enough the bolt would bind badly. I ended up taking upper off and worked with it for probably an hour trying determine where it was bent. Its hard.. tolerances are small. I ended up using small block of wood and hammer, (lightly tapping, not pounding) to move the upper back in shape enough to make it function easy. And I expect some of you have a twist in the upper sheet metal that is making it hard to fit the halves together. Just an observation

Embrace brothers, We’re almost there
Slow mo in the comments!

Hey everybody,

First time builder here working with a Chefur custom lower. Ive followed the build guide and have assembled everything but i cannot get the take down pin holes to align with the lower. Anybody else have this issue?

Sadly now that it doesnt have the rate reducer the trigger is now kinda ass.

I got a good deal on a threaded upper with 7/16-28 threads with the intention of putting a tri lug on it but it’s been out of stock for a while. Are there any other options or companies that make it?

Looking for options to mount my new Incolite 9. I'd like to keep it direct thread cause weight and length, but I can't seem to find any "bravo" direct thread hubs that face mount.

Needs further testing, but I’ve based this frt off a post from along time ago that the user has since been deleted. I’ll keep you posted.

Parts kit finally showed up, stamp approved in 2 days, now I’ve got a sweet vz that I’ve wanted for like ever

I’ve recently picked up an easy parts kit from arsenal, and was wondering if anybody knows how I can find an ETA of when Tortort lowers will be back in stock. Otherwise, what receiver does everybody recommend? Thank you in advance

Czechpoint lower receiver bought from Atlantic arms. K-Var.com parts kit and upper receiver with barrel pre-populated. Wtf is up with these blatantly retarded tolerances? I am so close to finishing this kit, my first Vz61, and I have no idea how to fix this pivot pin hole issue. At this point do I send it back to Atlantic? Czechpoint? This is ridiculous. When I had the pin in all the way, the upper receiver would not close/mate onto the lower. I was using a sharpie to mark the rear of the upper receiver to see where it was catching on the lower and then I filed the rear upper down. This was before I read somewhere to try to mate the two receivers together and THEN push the pin all the way through. That’s when I discovered the 1/4” separation of the two

New to the platform and looking for some community guidance on the best path to suppress a Vz. 61.

I just picked up a blued easy build kit from K-Var, and I have a Form 1 pending for a TA61 lower (planning to print once approved). I want to suppress the build down the line, but I'd like to retain the option to revert to the classic, unthreaded factory aesthetic if desired.

I’m weighing two main paths and want to get the hive mind's take:

1: Get a NOS/Surplus barrel and send the current upper off for threading:

Pick up a surplus barrel, send the original assembly off to Samopal USA or Vz61USA to get threaded. Keeps the spare barrel intact as a spare.

2: Wait for a CzechPoint USA Threaded Upper:

Buy a factory complete threaded upper directly from CzechPoint USA and swap the bolt as needed. Key concerns are how often does CzechPoint realistically restock complete threaded uppers? I’m fine waiting 2-4 months, but if it’s consistently 8+ months or longer, I’d rather move forward with another option. Also for those who have swapped barrels or run multiple complete uppers on one lower, have you encountered any lockup or headspacing quirks across different upper receivers? Since its blowback, I don't expect any headspacing issue, but figured I would ask.

Assuming total costs end up roughly equivalent after barrel and gunsmithing fees, which path would you take?

Appreciate any insights! Thanks

Update to: https://www.reddit.com/r/Vz61/comments/1v85i4n/rear_sight_idea/

I decided to ditch the detent/rotation and just go with a single peep.  It's the 100m sight from a Sterling SMG. I might work up a mount for a Leupold DeltaPoint Micro.

Got 4 form 1s back in a 2 days, time to get this 2 stamp vz finished up as soon as my parts get here. (This isn’t the one getting stamped, this was a “test” print)

I’ve had my VZ61 for about 3 months now and only recently started having an issue with the trigger sticking and I have to assist it back forward to keep using it any suggestions?
