Just picked up my new rifle this week, yes, CZ is not releasing these to wholesalers so they can get top dollar plus some, have to watch your backside, I paid 1638.00 Dennis Gentry has it now putting a three position safety on it, first Lt. handed one. CZ still has four in Kansas that they will sale for 1900 unless you get your FFL to order direct. I'll post pics on the finished product. I already cut two inches off the barrel (25-2) and have a NECG front sight and barrel banded swivel mount on the way.

is gentry making more safeties? he told me they had no plans to do so.

If he can mirror his programming on his CNC machine (Rt. to Lt. hand thread,etc) it's a no brainer for him to do them. You'll have to talk to him, if there is a need there is a source.

spoke to him and he is willing

I had one of the new CZ LH .375s on the range couple days ago. Front sight bead is very small for my middle-aged eyes, had a terrible time resolving it, but once I got the hang of it the rifle shoots one-hole groups at 50 yards with iron sights, acts like it wants to shoot. Fit and finish pretty good--CZ is getting better all the time!
Cheers, Craig

Craig,

Good to see you made it over here.

These should provide an ideal big bore solution for the lefty. I've always held the CZ's in high regard, and the few righties I've handled have felt right in the hands. The bonus here is that the 375 is only a rebarrel and some feed work away from a whole host of other BB calibers...

Given the price, it might be worth getting one just to use as a donor for a project gun. After all, I don't know of a cheaper way to get a CRF DG rifle...

You can buy a MRC and fit it into a McMillan stock for about $1,400. Add $200 for sights and you can end up with a stainless rifle that will hold 4 375's in the mag or 3 458 Lotts. But I do admit I love the idea of the CZ holding 5 (or is it 6?) down.

Damn,

I used to paying a premium, but 1600 to 1900 heck thats double!!!

I wish they were about 1200, then I'd start my gibbs project.

Snowwolfe,

I cannot quite close the bolt on 6 in my 550 375. Five down one in the chamber is still plenty.
