Brno ZKK trigger? Scope Base?

Just acquired a very nice condition Brno ZKK-600 Mauser in 7.62x63, with the pop-up peep in the rear bridge. Unfortunately, it has the optional single-set trigger installed, rather than the single-stage trigger. I know each rifle came with both triggers...one installed, and the other in a felt draw-string pouch. Usually, it was the single-stage trigger that was installed, and the purchaser had to take the rifle out of the stock and install the set trigger if that was what he preferred to use. As this rifle was bought 4th hand, somewhere in the process the set-trigger was installed and the conventional single-stage trigger "un-appeared".

Unfortunately, I have never cared for this particular set-trigger design. Anyone know where I might be able to buy or trade for the conventional trigger? I'd gladly trade the set trigger and a little "boot" for the single-stage conventional trigger.

Also would appreciate any suggestions as to scope base(s) fitting the Brno ZKK dovetails. Would prefer to have a 1-piece base, but would appreciate info on ANY bases that would fit.

Muchas gracias...

Can't help you with your trigger problem, but Lynx makes a 1 piece mount to suit your rifle.

Lynx site

I'm not aware of other makers of 1 piece mounts for your ZKK.

Talley and Warne make two piece mounts that would fit.

I prefer the standard trigger too. I purchased one on ebay.
As far as mounts, the only one-piece types I know of are Zeiss-Jena rail mounts and original aluminum Brnos (scarce). Recknagel (Germany, part of Prechtl) may make a one-piece. Otherwise I would go with 2-piece Warnes or Talleys:

Thanks, guys.My 7x57 ZKK 600 had a machined solid steel original Czech 1-piece base with a 2.5-X Meopta scope in it. It slid onto both dovetails, from the butt end of the receiver, and was held securely in place by tightening two small knobs on the right hand side of the base. Was a fine rig, with which I killed my first Alberta moose in 1969. I don't ever actually expect to find another, but I can hope. Will try looking at the German makers mentioned to see what they have.

Hate to have to mill my own, but guess I could do that too...

Just out of curiosity, what heading and category did you find that ZKK trigger under, on eBay? Would dearly like to find one myself.

Thanks again, eh (y'all).

I have one of those Meopta scopes on the rail mount, sitting on a 21H-7mm in my safe. I never use this rig and just bought it because I like old Brnos, I think I've shot it twice.

I am keeping the rifle,but, would part with the scope for a fair price, IF, I don't have to deal with bullshit import regs. established by the U.S. government. If, someone wants this and can get it into wherever, make me a reasonable offer or tell me if you may be in/around Vancouver, B.C. and it's yours. I have other Brno stuff as well. I'm not into trades as I want to reduce my gun collection.
