Report: 2 New CZ 634's just in!

[rflemann]

I received my order of two, new, CZ 634's.  They have the synthetic stocks, one accented in blue and the other in red.  Very nice looing, very functional stocks.  They are not slick or slippery, and have a mild monte carlo cheakpiece.   Overall weight of the rifle wi was very reasonable, not too heavy, light enough for ladies and youngsters.

I immediately scoped rifles using BKL rings, no. 257 standard height, matt blue.  I left the factory iron sights on the rifle.
The rifles have a barrel lock release lever on the barrel just forward of the stock before you can break the barrel to cock the rifle.  I really don't care for it, but I am getting use to it.

As for accuracy, after shooting about 50 rounds thru it, the rifle settled in and really started to shoot GOOD!   I issued the blue one to one of my sons and he did the final sight in chore.  Off the sand bags, at 25 yds, he could keep it in the same hole!!!  Using Crosman flat point pellets, right out of the box.   

Trigger needs help, very long first stage, we I adjusted both rifles to the lightest setting before shooting.  I will work on them later.

The rifle is quiet enough for me to shoot it in my backyard on a Sunday afternoon and neighbors won't notice the sound.
Recoil is light enough that I didn't feel compelled to buy air gun specific scopes for them, I just put a couple of scopes on them that I already had and not in use.

 Cost $152.90 each and UPS shipping

I am more than satisfied!   On the positive side: Very Accurate.  Cheap to buy.  Quiet.  Durable synthetic stock. Did I mention accurate?    Negatives:  I personally don't care for the release lever on the barrel.  Triggers need tuned.  I rate it a good buy.

Where did you buy it and what kind of power does this rifle put out? Is it good for small pest?

[rflemann]

I bought the 2 air rifles from Richie's Pawn and Gun.  ph. 601-798-9449   They followed thru on everything they said they were going to do, combine shipping, price, etc.   Perfect transaction. 

The rifle is more powerful than my Daisy 835 but not as powerful or loud as my RWS 48.

I think it would dispatch small rodents that drive my dog crazy.

Sounds like you're very satisfied with the CZ 634.  I'm thinking of buying the CZ 634.  The company said it has a dovetail rail, but that the receiver has a round surface. Does that mean that I would need a special mount for my Hawke scope? 

Have you any idea of the velocity?  The website has it listed as around 700 fps, but advertised velocities are usually off by some degree.

Thanks

I have one and like it alot.  The receiver is rounded but not very much.  I had no problem mounting a Leapers 4X32 scope with medium rings.

I contacted CZ  USA and asked if they did warranty repair. The fellow said "no" they just work on firearms.  He suggested that if the gun ever needed repair I would have to send it back to the Czech Republic.  Do you have any info on your warranty about how to get repairs?

Thanks

[helios]

The warranty is for two years but it has to go back to the Czech Republic.  I got it for only $148 from Bud's Guns and the warranty wasn't a big issue for me.

That was a good price you paid.  Even the best and most expensive airguns can develop mechanical issues.  I'm not mechanical, so if something goes wrong I couldn't fix it myself. I checked the price to mail it to the Czech republic. It was around $80 by the postal service.  CZ should really contract with a gunsmith in the U.S. to do their repairs. It could open up a whole new market.

Back to the drawing board. There are so few low power springers.
