So I have a penchant for old Eastern Bloc stuff, and a VZ 58 has been on my want list for awhile. I know there's basically two options, Century and Czechpoint. Does anyone here own either? The more commonly available rifles seem to be Century units, and while it would be nice for it to be a good shooter and reliable, it's not a "trust my life to" gun so I'm willing to accept some measure of inconsistency and weirdness.
I guess the main question is if I want a VZ 58, is a Century gun "good enough" or is hunting down a Czechpoint really worth the extra time and expense?
