@@zacht9447 well it took around 10 years from the adoption of the 47 to the akm meaning it around 12 years after the first instance of the ak47 being in mass production for the stamped models to be made cost effectivley.

And yet it managed to solve one of the longest standing problems with the AK: the crappy dust cover that prevents any kind of optics mounting.

"I'm from the Internet and I'm here to help!" - Karl Kasarda

I obviously do not know. But I have spent some time in the back rooms of various retail gun shops. I have seen pedestrian egress doors like this blocked in the same fashion. What this tells me is wherever he is, the facility wasn’t purpose built as an armory / Arms room. And is likely an office building of some sort. An office that is being rented, not owned. Because if owned, the modification would be more substantial and Permanent. Anyone reading this comment now understands I don’t have a life. 🤷🏼‍♂️🤪😎 Marky

Sexiest AK I've ever seen! 😍

_Trying as hard as possible to make something that is different from what the Russians had even if it achieves the same goals_

For first, I'm glad I can see my planetary brother here. Second, Czechs were fixed economically and politically to the Soviet Union for about 40 years so it was easier to redesign the kinda working AK and build another AK-like gun.

Which is why I believe it took so long. The Czech engineers went “ you have got to be kidding me” Czech Government said “Work or Gulag”. Czech engineers “ Yes Sir !” and proceeded to drag their feet while gritching under their breath about Russian Rifle Technology or the lack of it.....

Notice that: Vz. 58, AK-47 and israelis Galil are heavily improved, re-designed or at least inspired by germans Stg.44....just for info....😉

Looking at the straight side surfaces and the inside of the holes at the top at 9:25, I would say milled with a CNC. I still have no clue why somebody would use blue instead of black, but maybe that was the material at hand.

ukezi i think the owner wanted something fancy, but didn't have the money for an expensive cosmetic part, only for that blue one. at least he didn't put stickers on it. those things are ridiculous even for a video game.

I would say too that it is 3D printed

I'd say 3d printed too by the looks. The colour? Personally, on an unobtainium gun, I wouldn't want to appear to be making faked/repro parts, so had it been me I'd have either a) printed the new part with some writing inside confessing it's a repro, or b) just used a different colour. So maybe that's the reason?

I thought the same. The lines and color looked like it could have been 3d printed, or cnc milled. That would almost make it worth buying a 3d printer. I you used the right stuff you could probably fab a lot of hard to get bits.

But a Czech would beat you if you told them it's an AK.. (I'm from Czech Republic) (it's an AK)

@@plutotheplanet5341 No, the CZ-2000 is definitely an AK variant, everyone agrees. It's saying that the vz. 58 is an AK that would infuriate people. (I'm also from CZ, if it matters)

This gun is exact opposite of the vz. 58. Vz. 58 is AK on the outside but different in the inside, and CZ-2000 same in the inside and different on the outside.

It’s just a little bit better

(just like Galil) (joke)

Vojtěch Nosek Tell your Father in Law that us Americans that own the Vz-58 also love them. Just wished there were more of them.

There is a good reason nobody knows about it. It was obsolete the minute it left drawing board. Its not just the money issue, but the rifle was never fielded because of the "not enough improvement over the vz. 58 and therefore not worth the effort"... If we had this gun as a standard issue, there is no way Czech army would be able to change to Bren A1/A2 - because "you just got that "new" 2000 lada...!"

No tak to jste se zajímal málo :-D LADA je i dokonce v už celkem staré publíkaci - Enycklopedie vojenských zbraní od A.E.Hartnika z roku 2000 - a to byla dlouho v ČR jakási zbraňová bible :-D

Nevím jak vy, alá já o ní vím už zhruba od svých patnácti(momentálně je mi 21), i když je pravda, že jsem na ní narazil náhodou a není zrovna moc příležitostí u kterých se o ní dá zmínit(kdo by se kruci zajímal o českou verzi AK, která nebyla přijatá a tím pádem nebyla úspěšná, vyloženě se o ní dozvíte jen hledáním, nebo od lidí, jako je Ian co se zajímá o všemožné).

Stejně jak píší výše jiní, to jste se musel málo zajímat:D. Kdo se zajímá o 58mičku musí znát i tuhle story, pač to mela být náhrada. Ale i já si z dnešního videa odnáším nové věci, do dnes jsem to neviděl rozhozené a pokud ano tak určitě né s postupem a zvýrazněním některých vychytávek.

Věděl jsem o ní a mimo jiné se dostala i do RTS Wargame RedDragon. Ale... dodnes hodně lidí tvrdí že kosa stačí, jen by ji bylo potřeba oplastovat a vybavit lištou. Nedivím se že vývoj trval tak dlouho když nebyla potřeba.

It is the same rifle they just fixed a few issues, which resulted in much better performance, to the point of youtubers calling it a "new rifle".

Come to think of it, yeah it is. Also kind of a funny coincidence is that his old article on the development of the Tantal is how I first found Forgotten Weapons. I was looking for info after having just gotten a parts kit build Tantal though it had been built using a standard AK-74 receiver so it lacks the left side selector lever.

And same problems to go around USSR pushing to buy (very expensive) license to just build AK-74 and Russian spec ammo. That is why both projects took a while to complete.

So many work hours and people monies wasted to make AK clone. Just to amuse local pride

But with ability to shoot precisely. Small country, small army, no place for Soviet "Hurrah" actions in style of "There's plenty of us" (нас много)

​@@PavelNygryn You forgot to mention: 1 rifle for 3 soldiers, NKVD shooting you in the back and 20 million people getting killed by Stalin himself. During the battles, Soviets didn't have advantage in numbers over Axis - army sizes weren't too different, and many times Soviet troops were poorly positioned and, because of that, outnumbered by Axis troops. Soviet army did suffer more casualties, but mostly during the beginning of the war, because preparations weren't complite, etc. Also, what do you mean by "shoot precisely"? There are a few changes regarding the ergonomics, but the overal mechanism is unchanged. Is it still jiggling like an AK while firing? If yes (which is probably the case), how exactly is it going to "shoot precisely"?

@@alienwizard9765 It's not jiggling nearly as much as AK-74. Probably different tolerances in part manufacturing. "There's plenty of us" refers to top-level commands. Lives of individual soldiers were not considered as values. It's kind of making sense - training and equipments expenses for most of "basic" soldiers were low (if any). Some were actually referred as "untrainable" a still send to combat . Czechoslovakian army never used this approach.

@@PavelNygryn What time period are you referring to? If you are talking about WWII period - as I said, preparations and industrialisation weren't complite. There're many myths regarding the high command during WWII about generals simply sending troops to death, because they didn't care - such things might've happenned sometimes, but definitely not regularly. Moreover, even during that war Soviet army was the only one that was equiped with SMG's in great numbers. It also the second to have assault rifles, and first to equip the whole army with them. If you are referring to post-WWII period, then you have to keep in mind that Soviet Union had to be rebuild after the war. You also have to keep in mind that after Khrushev came to power, USSR have slowly been losing it's economy and production, army have been degrading too. Soviet Union was also preparing to defend against US, so huge amount of equipment had been made. And all things above resulted in huge stockpiles of outdated equipment that were very expensive to replace. About training - as I said, army have been degrading, so by the time Afgan war began, Soviets hadn't used US' expirience with Vietnam war, which resulted in conscripts being sent to fight (some of which weren't well-trained), and not being prepared for . In Vietnam US army had the same problem - preparing for massive conflict with USSR. But they were able to fix it afterwards. These problems have haunted Soviet Union and still haunt Russia as a result: preparing for massive breakthrough, but after realising that things aren't going to happen that way, not being able to change the doctrine. You also have to remember that socialist Czechoslovakia had very powerful economy, in many cases even better production then Soviet Union, and didn't have to maintain as big and as powerful army.
