I'll admit it...I'm a sucker for European guns.
Anschutz, Mannlicher, Sako, Holland and Holland--love 'em all.
While I was drooling over a Rigby the other day in an effort to make it within my reach (without success, the price still floated up around the same area as my folks' house), I stumbled across the CZ webpage.
Pretty nice looking guns, and I've heard from time to time the fabled stories of the factory at Brno (probably from Jeff Cooper's writings). But I've not had any firsthand experience. I'm trying to find out if they're worth it. They look wonderful, but I've not shot one yet. Do y'all have any experience with them? I guess the real question is whether they can compete with the "old money" brands like Anschutz or Sako, who have an outstanding reputation, but command prices that would have most of us gasping for breath.
I know I could just buy a Savage in stainless and synthetic, and have it be accurate and something you could just throw in the truck, but I really do like nice rifles. You only live once, right?
