To the best of my knowledge the vast majority of synthetic stock rimfires and centrefire come with the swivels already fitted! However, there are swivel options available that fit, and bolt from the inside, specifically for synthetics, my lad got some a while back to fit swivels to his synthetic air rifle stock!!

Toka 10 Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Cheers...my CZ American .22lr needed them fitting and with all my others having needed it i was just wondering if the process would be the same [not knowing whether synthetic would 'hold' a screw thread as wood does]. if i go for the silhouette i will make sure i find out and if told it doesnt come with them i will ask if they can be fitted...

ATB I must have missed something somewhere then, I thought they all came with studs...take a look here, http://www.czub.cz/en/catalog/80-rimfire-rifles-cz.aspx it is easy to see that every one has studs except the Scout!!

Toka 10 Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 cheers....hope that is the case now!!! i will check and make sure, sure saves me a job and a tenners worth of screws time and effort!! ATB Quote Link to post
Toka 10 Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Decker....can you tell me if they do the CZ Silhouette with a l/r/or ambidextrous stock, i am hoping to keep my options open but fancy a change from my wooden stocks, would prefer the dark barrel. My american .22lr has an ambidextrous stock but the silhouette stock looks like it has a cheekpiece but i cant find any reference to l/h stock on either my local shop website or the cz site??

ATB If it isn't here, and I don't think it is, then they don't do it, I know the American and Lux are available for left handers and I suspect the rest are all ambi.. http://www.czub.cz/en/Default.aspx Maybe a word with Edgar Bros to clarify!

Toka 10 Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 cheers...i am not bothered about the action [years of using it r/h anyway] but i do like either an ambi or l/h stock... ATB Quote Link to post
