My first generation Century VZ2008 Sporter with fixed stock bought sometime mid 2012 is S/N VZ052XX.  Yes, that is not a typo, that's how many digits it has.  It is engraved on left side just below the rear sight.

My third generation Century Sporter VZ2008 with folding stock bought earlier this year is S/N VZ08PM-0018XX and is dot-punch engraved left side down by the magazine well.

ETA:

Recently purchased Czechpoint SA vz.58 Sporter .223 Rem Pistol S/N 56003XXCA.

You sure you got that number right?  :)
You're the only person I've seen over the 10,000 mark.

Oh and the "PM" stand for Paramilitary.

Good morning all!

New member here with a VZ2008 on the way.  Been perusing the threads, and now that I've pulled the trigger it's time to start getting involved with this great community  :)

This thread has been interesting, it reminds me of the older Mosin Nagant S/N threads that proved invaluable with determining Spanish Civil War and other variant data points.

If I may make a suggestion, it would be great for the OP to edit the first posting with the serial number data, or perhaps make a separate thread just aimed at the serial number data.  This would make it easier for members to view etc. etc.

Best,

Just received in October 2014 serial 13,XXX.  Nicest yet with the best trigger.
