Can you school me on this?

Hey guys not sure if this has already been asked but what is this VZ-58 rifle and is it really signifigantly more better in performance compared to the AK.

Also, what is the point of capping a 40. or 45 acp down to 9mm making it the .357(whats the purpose I suppose?)

Finally are the caracals and tanfoglio company good quality, its seems like it but I wonder why I dont see many people talk about it. What should I know about them.
Thx for the input.

I'd recommend starting a post in Rifle Country about the VZ-58, a post in one of the handgun forums about the .357 question, and another post asking about the other guns. It's really hard to manage a post with 3 completely different topics in it.
