Century VZ2008 Review

I just wanted to give you guys a bit of information about this rifle the Century International VZ2008 chambered in the intermediate 7.62x39 cartridge.

I have been looking for a rifle in the 7.62x39 caliber for quite some time now and didn't want to get another AK type due to the fact that I already have an Century AK 74 which I review already, Thats were the VZ comes in.

Even tho it might look like an AK from the outside, its very different on the inside and it gives a couple of upgrades to the original design making it lighter, easier to maintain, and more accurate than the AK designed.

Not to sure where you bought the vz-58 for 350.00. The one i am looking at is 799.00 the Sa. 58 Military. I cannot wait to get this was looking to get a 1960 Polish AK47 but I am leaning towards this more.

Keep in mind mine was made by century and was called the VZ2008. Its the same basic concept with some american made parts and I like you will lean towards the VZ over any ak due to its design being too me a better quality and functional rifle.

@zaldivarbigboy where did you get yours from i cant find anywhere to buy a century arms one i like the ca one because it is parkerized and the czech point is painted

@pointseeker

I got mined from JGSales when they had them for like 399 now they are like 499 or more. Mine was also mix parkerized and painted. Really bad finish.

so how is this compared to the vz 58? they look the same, but the paint looks better on the 58.

@gasitman

The Vz58 has a chrome lined barrel and its supposed to be made with better control quality. The Vz2008 came with a parkerized finish where the Vz58 has a more typical finish like duracote or guncote not really sure which one it is.

When it came to control quality I can tell you that everything on the Vz2008 was very good considering the difference in price. Most of the parts are machined very nicely so there is really not much fitting that could go wrong while assembling it. Thanks.

@zaldivarbigboy Yeah i have heard from most people that they really like the quality and craftsmanship of this Weapon. Just out of curiosity what is your longest target shot down range,with the VZ?
