I just got my first CZ and it ain’t looking good.

Yes, I read through the 2 year old thread but I have to ask, is there anything CZ can do?

My gun is shooting 10” low at 25 yards. The magpul sights will run out of elevation.

So, everyone has established that this is not a problem with the rails that are out there.

I haven’t checked for barrel cant, yet, but this seems to be the common issue.

If I send it in to CZ, what could they possibly do to fix this?

Is it still grouping & consistent? The 1/2x28 thread protector under the flash hider has been known come loose and cause issues.

Windage is dead on and the grouping seemed consistent. Well, what wasn’t in the dirt. I used an old cardboard box on the ground for function check. Informal.

I removed the muzzle device before ever shooting and put a griffin armament 3 lug adapter on. I suppose I can remove it and see what happens. I also hope CZ will contact me this week.

If it turns out not to be the adapter, then I say they don’t test fire these before shipping. To be fair, BT doesn’t either. Rather sad, considering what these guns cost and they can’t be bothered to test fire to see if there are any problems. That means they know there are problems in their QC.

Magpul Sights may be your issue and not the gun.  Have had a lot more issues with aftermarket parts, especially sights (even some very high end scopes) than with any of my CZs.  If you have the original sights I would reinstall and try again. 

Hope this helps.  Wish you the best.
