    CZ52 Schematics

    Anyone know where I can get schematics and breakdown instructions for a CZ52. The sllide on mine locked yesterday at the range and I figure it's time to start do-it-yourself gunsmithing project. I figure if I completly screw it up it will be cheaper to buy a new one than to take it to a gunsmith.

WRONG. The first round fired did not...

    I'm thinking of getting a .243 rifle but am concerned about the recoil. I'm not recoil shy but am under a restriction due to past retina problems. I have a Ruger KM77VT MKII 22-250 that is quite mild & I'm just wondering how a .243 would compare to it.
