Troy is no longer available. 

Northeast arms is, but you have to order from Canada. 

Troy was ~$200 with 2 short rails included. 

NEA from Canada comes w/o rails, so it's about $270 US plus shipping if you go that route and need 3...

NEA's online store, primary retail outlet:

Set is out of stock there, but someone on here ordered recently from these folks: http://www.kellysonline.ca/products/nea-aluminum-handguard-for-vz-58

bleep, I wonder why they discontinued it. Was such a cool product. I really dig mine. I guess it's a collector's item now!

B/c it was made before the VZ2008s really came onto the market...

And once Czechpoint started being the exclusive retail outlet for the CSA VZ58, the # of those guns seem to have gone down, or at least reduced in overall distribution... 

So they essentially discontinued right about the low point of the market due to not enough demand.

 Just installed my Bonesteel  Arms furniture on my rifle.  The install was pretty effortless, the directions are very well illustrated. I did have some problem with the bottom hand guard, which required some nice taps on the piece with a rubber mallet.  I ended up reusing the original roll pin, but had to pull it out and start from the opposite side, then use a small cleaning tip from a M-16 cleaning kit, by pushing inside the pin so as to line it up with the hole in the receiver and it went right through.  Talk about tight tolerance's.   Now to install the Zendal mag release and i will be close to completion of my VZ 2008.

I had ordered in July initially and they canceled my order, so had to reapply and they shipped it straight out. My guess is that most people who ordered in the past should get there product shipped pretty quickly. 
when i figure out how to post photos I will include some of my rifle in the near future,  I really appreciate the forum and everyone who contributes to it.  It has really helped me out!
