Roscoe,
Yes indeed, very good news.

Hope it isn't in the same time frame as Remington's double gun.

I may have pushed the want list as I requested the 404 be included in the first run.

Thanks for the news.

That's not good news, it's great news! Hopefully the timeline is realistic. I recently e-mailed CZ-USA about lefthand centerfire rifles and didn't receive any responce.

When CZ announced the 452lh I ordered one right away. I'll do the same if they offer a centerfire. Problem is, which caliber!

Thanks Roscoe, that's great news!

Hi guys-
I don't want to rain on anyone's parade but I was talking to my local merchant of death, who happens to be left handed, about the prospect of left hand CZ centerfires and he told me that CZ is so far behind in their orders that they are no longer accepting orders for shotguns and that he has had two 375's on backorder for 9 months and they won't give him a date when he can expect to see them.
While this is good for CZ (and ultimately us)
it may be awhile before we see my new left hand 416 Rigby......maybe I can talk them into a LH 505 Gibbs.....Oh God, there goes the checkbook...

well i have been sending an e-mail to cz every month requesting a left handed 416 rigby rifle, barreled action or just the action big enough for the 416. i have a standing order for three. it seems to be a turtle race.

who will come in first?
a. Williams with his new left hand action
b. Montana with the left hand ph action
c. left hand CZ

i hope i live long enough to see one

i recently ordered a large left handed BAT for a peacekeeper but i'm sure it will be awhile

They been telling me bascially the same thing for the last three years. Don't hold your breath although I would love to see it. Maybe since Winchester folded they will get off there ass and just do it.

Ahhh, decisions, decisions. Do I want the classic .416 Rigby or the newer .458 Lott? Gotta have at least one of them.

06 August 2006, 15:54

max(hm2)

if you really want a lott you can put it into the standard long magnum action they manufacture . i have done it without any problems, so have several others here.

Regarding the MRC LH PH action, I emailed MRC recently and they say that it is likely to be another 2 years before either the PH or the small action become reality.

Mr. Jarko,

This is very good news for us Lefties.
Is there any chance the 404 Jeffery could be included in the run?

Thanks,
Roger QSL

Gerry

Thanks, I'll send Mr. Jarko an e-mail in an attempt to keep up the consumer demand.

Whow! A .416 Rigby AND, if we are lucky enough; a .404J also. Just imagine, a factory rifle for lefties in fantastic cartidges that are purpose made, a novel concept.......

I'll have to have one of each.....just because.

Would love to see a LH 223 CZ!

17 August 2006, 06:37

Fjold

On another site CZ said that the first lefty to be released would be a 223.

I want a 40+!

17 August 2006, 08:44

About 6 months aga I got a reply from CZ saying they would bring out a Lefty CZ 527 in .223Rem but still in R&D at that stage and it also said CZ wants a full range of Left Hand rifles .

Rumor #2

As reported on 24HourCampfire, CZ had a meeting today and the LEFTY CZ550 is a go for mid-year 2007. The 416 Rigby with a walnut stock will be the first one released.

I've not been impressed with he CZ rifles I've seen to date....HOWEVER....for a L.H. .416 Rigby,I'd just have to get one.

here is an eamil I got

--------------------------------------------------------------
Hi I was excited to see the 452 offered in left hand. Have one in LR and
one on way in 17HMR.

Any plans, I hope I hope, to offer a left hand 527?

Yes in .223 then other calibers will follow. First of the year for the .223

Purchased a 452 lefty last year and was in the market for a .223. Sent a email to CZ and was told to look for a 527 in .223 in Sept. Last week I ask again and was told " it's looking like early 07 now" so lets hope so. I went ahead and bought a 11GL Savage that I guess Iam going to return. I cannot get better than about a 3 inch group out of it with several hand loads and one or two factory loadings.
