I picked up this '56 Brno Model 2 today.

It's in pretty decent shape (honest use) with a great bore. The trigger is set at a very nice/consistent 3.25#. It has a 24" barrel. 6-shot and mag fed....You can get 10-round mags for it.

The rear sight is .mil like and adjustable for windage and elevation.

I might have paid a bit much at $350.00 but to heck with it, I wanted it. That and it had a more American type of stock instead of the hogback Euro stock many of them had. It has a knurled metal buttplate.

It uses the same mags as the current CZ 452 does.

Recent Navy Arms, WV import out of Britain. It came with a Euro-type sling. They got in a bunch of vintage Brit smallbore gun club rifles.

The 4 X 32 scope set-up is a bit hokey but the odd thing is that it's very solid and just clears the rear sight. I ordered a set of high Tally Rings for it to do it up right.

Super well made and of old world craftsmanship.

Had a couple of Model 2s. Well worth bedding and free floating. Had to go to Sako to get better.

I'd get the pistol grip and fore-end chequered up first thing though. Can guarantee that'll be like holding on to a greased pig when things get sweaty.

That one deserves a Leupold rimfire 4x scope in nice rings.
