CZ 805

There is a picture on GunBlast of a new CZ model 805.  Anyone have details?

If it's from S.H.O.T., it very well may be, as that is a huge industry/trade show, and can be aimed at law enforcement and military contractors to, so CZ-UB might be showing off the 805 in an effort to garner a few domestic/foreign contracts.
Note the pic shows the multiple red dots above Sherri's finger where the selector lever is - it's select fire/full auto. I don't think they've made a semi auto only 805 for us yet. Yet.
For those interested, (and SHOT is ALWAYS interesting!), click here and scroll down...down...down to seethe picture mentioned.

According to an e-mail I just got from CZ:  "It is our new select fire service rifle.  Czech army has adopted it.  More info should be available at www.czub.cz"

Yes, and if you live somewhere that you may A) buy select fire rifles that hasn't B), cut us off from new ones like FOPA did to all US citizens in 1986, then go get one! I'll just sit here and be green with envy. ;)
I don't think we'll ever get a Congress/President with the stones to repeal GCA 68 or NFA '34, or even just re-open the registry, so unless either SCOTUS overturns them, (also highly unlikely), or CZ-UB designs one with 16 inch barrel and semi auto only, we won't seethe 805 here in the US.

That would be nice!  Also, maybe they will cater to the Law Enforcement Market and challenge H&K.
I could also see owning a "Pistol" version.

Nice looking rifle, would be good competition for all those AR clones floating around. ;)

Definitely going after the LE Market with this CZ Scorpion 9mm SMG.
Would also like to have one of these, possibly in "Pistol" form or Semi-Auto Carbine form.  8)

The EVO in either 10mm or .357 SiG would be the cat's meow for a subgun. However, nobody is interested in that, everyone wants 9mm subguns, when shorty assault rifles like the M4 and 805 Carbine give far more performance in a similarly sized package.

So depressing.... :( Perhaps if we set up a subfactory here in AZ and utilized our AZ Firearms Freedom law, we could make them here, but only for sale IN AZ.
