What Would You Like To See From Manticore Arms

You guys want a bolt release that sticks out on the right side liek some companies have offered, or one that is tucked underneath and close to the trigger guard? 

I favor the second option a little more personally....

Im having a hard time visualizing the second idea...

A replica/reproduction of the Czech Special Forces muzzle brake would be nice.

I knew it! The tactical bolt release would be one of the top items. I still think it will win.

It must not get in the way of zendl's ambi mag release, of course

[vblue42]

As long as I can access it with my trigger finger for both catch and release I don't care. I would say the lower the profile the better though.

After that group buy I think many members would agree

Anything would be better than me welding a piece of metal onto my current bho. Also must make sure these work with VZ 2008's.

I will state this again, we are not going to make magazines for teh VZ58. 

You can get surplus mags at Apexgunparts for $20 each when you buy four.

The cost of the tooling would far, far, far outweigh what we could ever recoup on sales. Multi stage stamping dies plus the welding would easily exceed $100,000 in tooling.  Same for molds a polymer only magazine- $50,000-$80,000 in just tooling.

Thats easy enough to understand.  A VZ version of the MA-11200 Keymod AK handguard you guys posted on face book today would be uber and I'd take 2

I don't feel a need for a windage adjustable rear sights. 

A fuller mod rear sight would be great and something that could fabricated quite easily.  Adding tritium inserts to it would be awesome as well. 

Tritium front sight would be good too, but it always seem to be a night sight/daytime accuracy tradeoff there on everything except Galils and some Yugos.  Actually, modding VZ front sight blocks to incorporate a Yugo or Galil type flip up sight would be great.

I don't see an immediate need for rear windage adjustable but it's certainly an option...

I would like to see some more flexible stock options personally. It would be great to maybe see a version of the Manticore triangle stock designed to attach directly to the receiver without the use of a receiver block, maybe even with a folding hinge built in. I know that this can be done with a combination of receiver blocks, but it adds cost, length, and to be honest to me it just looks ugly and inelegant. Something that is connected to that is a AR15 style buffer tube that also connects directly to the receiver.

AK mag adapter. I can dream, can't I?

This would be awesome. Probably impossible, but awesome.

You can run AK mags but have to change the rear locking tab location...  Don't think there's enough room for an adapter though.

Some other ideas:

Some sort of poly overlay for the fixed stock -- allen key or other clamp on -- but sold polymer or recoil pads for an extension/length of pull vs standard folding.  That's basically what the Czech military modern one is too: http://www.vz58rifle.com/products/sklopna-pazba-255mm/



For fixed stocks -- a recoil pad that's customized too them would be great too -- adding a couple inches to length of pull, or perhaps even a couple different recoil pad lengths for a more customized length of pull.  Like the ACE stocks...
