Dennis Olson project with CZ
Dennis is re-shaping my CZ and he sent me these pics so far. He says he is inspired by Ralf Martini.

Thanks, guys for the help and input. I get a kick out of what people can do to a cz so I wanted to throw my hat in the ring. My two favs of the project so far are the built up and knurled bolt release which is barely visible and the Half Moon Lg Oberndorf style bolt handle he put on. Man it makes a difference.

Probably something optical, but, the barrel in first pix looks bent?

I like the lines. Also the steel grip cap and the oval, shadowlined cheekpiece.

Good figure in the wood, too. Please show us the finished product.

just got an email from dennis saying it's being picked up by the brown truck this afternoon and should be back to me by mid-week coming. I'll see if vapo will be kind enough to help get the new pics up.

CZ's sure have nicely figured wood under all that finish!


Good hunting,
