Mine originally came with the beaverbarf variant, resin impregnated with wood chips. I get it's authentic, but it's awful to see.

So did mine, but Duffy’s swapped that for a beech wood set before I picked it up

VZ 52/57 factory built in 7.62x39. It was the rifle adopted between their post war K98K and the VZ58. It's the Czech equivalent of the SKS but it uses a completely different operating system.

Yep. Push a button and out it pops. If used hard though, it had a tendency to crack the stock. The gas system was patterened on the MKB42(W) and the locking system was a tilting bolt with shaded of the P38 in it. When comparing the bolt and carrier to the VZ58, the lineage is clear.

Well, I think it looks cool, but wasn't super comfortable to me, which is why I added the angled grip, but I plan to eventually add a vertical grip. It is light. The VZ is known for heating up pretty quick, so I added an aluminum heat sheild inside. I haven't shot it in a while, so I can't really recall how bad it is to clean the piston, but I recall it was a PIA to get one of the forend parts on, top, or bottom, can't remember.

That's a nice rifle, when I was looking for one all I could find where in 7.62×45mm. I did a quick search and that ammo was non existent at the time.

Thanks! I've got some fab defense stuff incoming but can never have to many sources for parts.
