About the CZ

CZ firearms or CZ (which stands for Česká zbrojovka) is based in Uhersky Brod, a small town in the southeastern Czech Republic. CZ has its start in 1936 as a subsidiary of CZ Strakonice, which was itself a subsidiary of Zbrojovka Brno. The arms industry was growing quickly in Czechoslovakia at the time, and Uhersky Brod was chosen since it was secluded and lay beyond the range of German bombers, which, in case of an invasion, would target the arms factories first. The factory initially mostly produced pistols and small-caliber rifles; however, when German forces occupied Czechoslovakia in 1939, the company was renamed to Böhmische Waffenwerke and was forced to make machine guns, such as LK-30 and MG-17, for the German military.

After the end of World War II, the Soviets gained control of the region and the company was nationalized by the communist government, producing air weapons, machine guns, submachine guns, motorcycle and sewing machine parts. In 1957 the company started production of the Model 58, and in 1961 they introduced the world-famous Model 61 Škorpion machine pistol. The year 1975 marked the release of yet another popular model, the CZ 75 pistol which many manufacturers have since used as basis for their own products.

CZ once again became an independent company in 1992 following the fall of the Soviet Union. In the decades after, they have continued production of a variety of weapons seizing the market of law enforcement and military firearms with service pistols, assault rifles and grenade launchers with which they also helped equip the Czech army. They have strived to widen their presence on the international markets, opening a facility for assembly and repairs of CZ pistols in Peru and spreading production of their firearms (certain models of the CZ-P10 pistol) to the United States in 2019. As of 2021 they employed around 1500 workers.

CZ 513 Rifle Review

Introduced in 2004, CZ 513 is a simplified version of the CZ 452 series of rimfire rifles. It comes in only one version which is known as CZ 513 Basic in the USA and CZ 513 Farmer outside of the USA. Advertised as an inexpensive entry-level rifle with stripped-down features, it differs from the CZ 452 line only in having a non-checkered beechwood stock and a simplified, non-adjustable trigger. It otherwise features the same cold hammer forged barrel, controlled-feed action with two locking lugs at the head of the bolt, and a dovetailed receiver made from a single billet of steel. It is also equipped with a 5-round detachable magazine, iron sights and a beechwood stock. It was discontinued in 2012.

Which rifles have interchangeable mounts

CZ 452 (11 mm)
CZ 453 (11 mm)
CZ 455
CZ 457
CZ 511
CZ 512

One-piece mounts

CZ 455
CZ 457

Our recommendations for mounts

Fixed mounts

This is the only one-piece mount available for CZ 513 and it is made by Kozap. Kozap is also from the Czech Republic, so their Slip-on mount is a great fit for a CZ rifle.

Detachable repeatable mounts

There are not a lot of detachable repeatable mounts available for CZ 513, but these roll-off rings from Rusan are a good choice in terms of price and quality.

Picatinny rails

This Picatinny rail is a good choice in terms of price and quality.
