    What I'm getting at is that the VZ is a prohibited weapon in Canadaicon, what is sold in Canada is the CZ 858. It might seem like splitting hairs but to the casual observer 3 out of the 4 rifles mentioned in the Forum header are not legal in Canada (AK, VZ, Dragunov) So unless you own a SKS or a MN you might not choose to look there especially when the CZ is not a Sovieticon weapon.

    As it is, there is only one thread in the forum right now discussing the VZ. Yes if you read the thread you will see references to the CZ 858 but that's only if your so inclined to read a thread about a gun that you cannot own in Canada.

    (though I don't pretend to represent all Canadians, for me discussion about the VZ is somewhat of a waste of time and usually a non starter).

    In comparison there are many posts to the Milsurp forum on CGN about the CZ 858 and relatively few about the VZ (mainly 'what is the difference between the two?'). Having the CZ 858 specifically mentioned in the forum header here on Milsups.com might get more discussion going to the benefit of all.

    Just my $0.02
