Confab with CZ
« on: July 08, 2022, 02:40:46 PM »
So, nothing REALLY new coming in right now, still working on the 600 recall, and if you see ads for the 600 Ergo - that's a European only design, but the Alpha is US. BREN 2 BR is still a dead item for domestic production, can't effectively compete with .308 designs already here with factoring in the setup costs. Understandable. It bites sour pickles, but it's understandable. No official word on what will be produced at the Colt factory, thinking the "supply chain" issues might be affecting raw materials.
The new Scorpion EVO 3+ is still hot and that new grip really rocks - I told him the guy who designed it deserves a promotion. I did ask about the rumor that the factory in the Czech Republic had cut down on US production to focus on Czech Army and Ukraine orders, but that wasn't something they had been told, might not be a correct original report.
Looks like the 600 might be coming out in a .308 flavor soon, hoping to see that soon, since I just so happened to start loading that caliber.
Any digital marketing specialists here? CZ is really trying to find an experiences digital marketing person, with previous experience.

Well, of course they’re not bringing the Bren 2 BR to the US — that would just make entirely too much sense. It would be such a PITA for CZ to keep them in stock because they’d be flying off the shelves to pesky customers, especially now that CZ is (finally) doing something (on a tiny scale) to fix the troublesome Bren 2 x39 guns after several years.

Sounds like CZ (or now “Colt-CZ”) has adopted the Colt management model: come up with a great idea and then stubbornly refuse to adopt it, or otherwise royally screw it up beyond all recognition.

I'm still (in)patiently waiting for an optic ready P-07.

Waiting on this as well. Seems it would be pretty easy to add an optics ready P07/P09 to the line up. Also, I REALLY hope they bring the DWX back to life.

I read on another board that CZ — rather “Colt-CZ” — will be exporting the Bren 2 BR to Canada — but not tobthe USA. This actually makes perfect sense within the clown world universe that is Colt-CZ. 😝

Man I had forgotten about the DWX. I was really excited about it when it was first announced.
