Czech 1950's Military Rifles
« on: March 06, 2005, 01:18:58 PM »
There is a Czech military semi-auto rifle in 7.62X39 from the fifties, the  VZ52/57 that was made for a few years. Not to be confused with the VZ-52 Rifle which took a 7.62X45 cartridge different from the 7.62X39, but similar in concept.

I wonder how much more power the 7,62x45 has over the 7,62x39???  I'm surprised the 7,62x45 didn't catch on.  I wish we had new 7,62x45 ammo available.                                                   BigBill
