Delivery must be completed by the end of the year. In addition, L. Kovarik announced the conclusion of a contract for the supply of several hundred 2013-mm submachine guns "Scorpion-EVO 9A3" (Scorpion EVO 1A3) to Egypt.

According to reports, the contract with Egypt for the supply of 50 thousand pistols CZ 75 P-07 "Duty" was concluded in the first quarter of this year.

L. Kovarik also reported on the ongoing negotiations with CZUB on the supply of a large batch of small arms with representatives of Iraqi security forces. Until the end of this year, the Iraqi side should decide on the purchase of a large batch of new assault rifles, sniper rifles, as well as self-loading pistols.

Ceska Zbrojovka has stated its readiness to fulfill Iraq’s demand to establish a service center in the country, as well as a training center for training military personnel and law enforcement officers in the combat use of new small arms systems.

The Iraqi Armed Forces and the police use a diverse arsenal of small arms consisting of American, Chinese, Bulgarian, German, Polish, Romanian and Ukrainian samples.

    In the Warsaw Treaty, on the development of the military-industrial complex, the Czech Republic was second, after the USSR. So nothing surprising.
    Solid, thoughtful weapon.

        In Prague, after the October Revolution, 5 higher educational institutions were staffed by Russian scientists.
        The Germans gladly took advantage of their engineering idea after the occupation of the Czech Republic, giving the whole world Czech achievements as their own.
        Among others, small arms were actively replicated and effectively presented as German technology.

          We didn’t have to deal with CZ military weapons, but civilian ones, for example, hunting carbines, were made without any frills, but soundly, efficiently and attracted with their pleasant price.

      I think the United States issues "certificates of appreciation" for merit.
      The largest they supply themselves, and the rest must be earned!
      Although weapons may not be a bad thing, Ceska Zbrojovka is not so well known in the world as the same Austrian company Glock GmbH.

        In the 30s, the USSR built artillery of special power (BR-17, BR-18) on the basis of the Cheshka Skoda.

          And the CZ pistols served as the basis for the Ukrainian "FORT"

    The safety bracket is somehow wretched. Externally. Maybe experts will clarify?

      The bracket is like a bracket, made under the grip of the pistol with both hands.

      Yesterday I was at a presentation by the Czech Republic small arms factory in Moldova. They brought several samples for the army of Scorpio and others from long-barrel and 8 samples of pistols from R-08 (it was just the first time we showed it) including R-07, also sports and tactical. Shot from all samples. Weapons as weapons have their pros and cons. Heavier pistols (1 kg) to shoot is a pleasure - everything goes at 10. But no one will carry such samples - only for the ICSC and other sports. Everyone has a nice smooth descent. But like all types of weapons with many details - then in operation - problems. After a few 2-3 thousand change the spring and so on and everything in authorized workshops, etc. Plus, no one will send parts by post to the CIS countries as per Glock. I personally have Glock 19, and with its specific descent - I still can’t change it for any of the emergency :)

      are mistaken. Despite the resemblance to a Kalashnikov assault rifle, SA vz.58 had a fundamentally different, and completely original design:
      - The SA vz.58 submachine gun is built on the basis of gas exhaust automation with a short stroke gas piston located above the barrel. The gas piston has its own return spring. The barrel is locked using a separate combat larva mounted on the bolt in its lower part and swinging up and down under the influence of curly cuts on the bolt frame. Locking is carried out for cutouts in the receiver by lowering the locking larva down. After the shot, the bolt frame receives a short impulse from the gas piston and begins to move backward. After a free play of about 22 millimeters, curly cuts in the bolt frame lift the front of the locking larva, disengaging it from the receiver and releasing the bolt. After that, the entire bolt group under the action of inertia forces and residual gas pressure in the barrel moves back, removing and discarding the spent cartridge case and feeding a new cartridge into the barrel, and at the end of the movement, locking the barrel by lowering the front of the combat larva down. Thus, the shutter itself moves strictly rectilinearly. The return spring is located in the receiver behind the bolt frame.
      The trigger mechanism is also the original design, shock.
      - The Kalashnikov assault rifle AKM is an automatic weapon with a gas engine of automation, store-fed and air-cooled barrel.
      The basis of automation is a gas engine with a long stroke of a gas piston. The leading link in automation is a massive shutter frame to which the gas piston rod is rigidly attached. The gas chamber is located above the barrel, the gas piston moves inside a removable gas tube with a barrel pad. The slide frame moves inside the receiver along two side rails. The barrel bore is locked by a rotary bolt on two radial combat stops that engage with the elements of the receiver liner. The rotation of the shutter is ensured by the interaction of the protrusion on its body with a figured groove on the inner surface of the shutter frame.
      Trigger mechanism (trigger) AKM - trigger

    Java and ChiZet were produced on the same units. The difference between them only in the frame of Java was the possibility of hanging a side trailer, and ChiZet was a pure loner. It was both.

    They glanced under Glock. The Czechs used to sell weapons to Egypt. At first it was a pistol called Tokajipt. This is nothing more than a slightly reworked TT under 9 * 19 cartridge. Cooperation, as we see, continues to this day, despite the pathological tendency Egyptians put on their trading partners when calculating.

    Iraqi customers have explicit weapons problems with logistics.So, as different manufacturers produce different calibres of weapons and exclude the combination of ammunition.
    Either acquire what is cheaper or "target" according to the "price - quality" formula.
