umshiniwamPhotos needed of BRNO/CZ rifles
Hi all,
I have an article for publication (possibly in May) in a local magazine, about the history of CZ (BRNO) rifles.
I require some additional photos of rifles such as VZ24, model 21 & 22, ZG47, ZKK and CZ 550, suitable for publication. (pretty much all of them)
If you perhaps have something that you believe may be suitable, and are willing to give permission for publication, please could you post it here, or PM me?
No need to post full resolution photos here, but maybe rather some scaled down photos. If I can use it I'll PM you for hi--res images.
No money involved unfortunately, but acknowledgement will be given in print, and I can post you a copy of the magazine in due course, if a photograph is used.
Look forward to seeing what you have!
Cheers

touchdown88Here's some VZ24's that my grandfather built for me. The top is a 30-06, followed by my wife's 270, and the 7mm Rem Mag is the bottom.

Dr. Alf Smith, member ALF, your countryman now residing in British Columbia, Canada, is quite the collector and historian of BRNO-CZ rifles, and many others ...
He has written about and posted photographs of more than you mentioned, over the years here.
Look him up.
Doing a search to see if any of the posts and photos remain:
Most have turned into "."
