Cz858 Prohibited by RCMP

The latest updates seem to indicate that as of 3 pm March 2nd 2014 some specific variants of the Cz858 have been reclassified from the RCMP from Non-restricted and Restricted statuses to Prohibited.

These select models have been labeled as “converted automatics`by the RCMP, meaning that the original receiver of the firearm was a fully automatic rifle. They have been prohibited because of this, and the RCMP claims that they can be easily converted to fire full-auto.

“CZ858 Tactical-2 P” firearm with a large machined window on the left side of the sight block and a proof date of 2007 or later is derived from the full automatic CZ VZ58 firearm which has been altered to discharge one projectile with one pressure of the trigger (converted automatic). The original markings have been altered or obliterated and the firearm has been remarked. – NOTE: There are semi-automatic versions of the CZ858 Tactical-2 P. This semi-automatic version has the following characteristics: 1) a narrow, machined window on the left side of the sight block with a modern CZ proof mark and a proof date of 2005 or 2006, or 2) original CZ factory marks (“she”) on the left side of the sight block along with a modern CZ proof mark and a proof date of 2005 or 2006. – “CZ858 Tactical-2 P” firearm can be converted to a full automatic firearm in a relatively short period of time with relative ease.
