I just want an SVD that isn’t more than 2500 dollars. I feel like that should be achievable.
View Quote


A reputable company making a quality SVD would sell them faster than they could make them at $2,500.

What motivation is there to charge less than that?

They're making them in conjunction with Zev, yes.

They had a prototype at their booth last year.

Interesting that they would have one in the video released shortly before the show, especially since it seems to be markedly different than the prototype from last year....

I don't think it's an ACRO clone. They've alluded to it being more SRO than ACRO, since they already have the 509t and EPS.

Going as a tourist it is fun. Going for work sucks. At least as a buyer I did not have to do set up or tear down or man a booth. But my employer expected I would cover every inch of the show floor.

As a P30 carrier and one that's looking really hard at a VP9 OR or VP9L OR for getting back into USPSA, this would actually really interest me.

Having used both piggy back and offset, I can’t put to words how much more I like offset. Faster, no change in rifle/optic ergonomics, but does make zeroing a little weird. Bar none the fastest set up for switching from magnified to not. Just twist your wrist a few degrees and that’s it.

If you have NV that goes out the window though.

Here is the upended Reddit thread which lets you see the deleted comments: https://www.unddit.com/r/CZFirearms/comments/wlsf49/ex_czusa_employee_ama/

There is the thread.  I was skeptical of what he says but someone posted a picture of an email exchange with a current CZ-USA employee in the Armory subforum in the CZ Bren 2 thread and they said the Bren is discontinued (or not being imported anymore, at least) which is one of the claims this ex CZ employee made.

Here is the excerpt from the thread above about the Scorpion 4.  It was mentioned as a new product in the guy's original post which even unddit couldn't save, but the guy posted about it and someone mentioned it later in the thread and here is the comment chain about it below.  disgruntled1234 is the CZ-USA employee.

The only thing I can figure as to why that man is the face of the official YouTube ArfCom channel is friendship over ruling business.
He might be a good friend to the people in charge here, but he is not the image to present for any company.
It's kinda like the fat Victoria secret models. Not everyone can or should  be a model.

@Mblades, this and the SR47. With that said, you could almost do a clone build using a PSA Jakl if you had D.Wilson or Marvin dimple the barrel and maybe grab a brake that looks like the triple tap or something.

The issue is theres always an option to add an offset mounted RDS, on pretty much anything.

But the Piggy Back option lives or dies on whether a mounting solution is built into the Prism.

So without them adding a piggy back option (which is a bummer because thats basically a couple of screw holes on the exterior of the prism body ala ACOG) theres just no doing.

It's wild bc with just the one simple trick of having a Piggy Back option, the PA 3x and 5x could be ACOG killers (or major competitors)...

I agree with that 100%

Right now I'm messing around with a Leupy 3hd 1.5-4x with a piggyback rds for NODS in a Reptilia mount, but a PA mini 5x in 1.5 height with a piggybacked rds would be the bees knees to check out.

Although I like Vegas and love Shot Show - there is one thing that annoys me.

I have travelled quite a bit. Stayed in some sketchy "budget" hotels and motels. Yet they all managed to put a coffee machine in the room.

Then you have Vegas hotels. They charge a "resort fee" which is often more than the price of the room. But no coffee machine. You have to schlep down to the Casino and pay $5 for a cup.
