Very nice. I just ordered one after watching this video. 60 bucks is a decent price. I got the curved one with the ball knob and I added a note in the order comment saying ZRUS on youtube sent me.
Right on man!! Let me know how you like it! I personally really like the swept ball handle on my iron sight CZ. It feels so natural on there. And it looks great! Thanks for the support!!
Hey Zrus, not sure if you are aware, but the new CZ527 have been changed (Gen 2). Three major changes. The rear sight is not mounted directly into a grove which is machine into the barrel. Now the blade is held with with a ramp that is screwed to barrel. It is now windage adjustable via the use of two set screws. The front sight is fiber optic and adjustable for elevation. Again, two set screws can be used to elevate and lower the front blade. The reason I am bringing this to your attention is that the changes in the rear sight may effect mounting that scout mount your were in the process of building. Another benefit is that the rear sight can be completely removed for mounting a longer scope without the unsightly groove cut into the barrel. This setup reduces machining costs and is not nearly as robust as the original, but the sights are fully adjustable. Having said that, you may not need to buy the higher front blade when you install the NECG apeture rear sight. Simply elevate the front sight using the set screws. The third modification is the trigger guard. No longer made of steel. It is now aluminum. In addition, they have removed those "wings" at the front of the trigger guard that facilitate guiding the magazine into the well. There have also been some changes to the receiver to reduce milling costs. The left side of the receiver where the "CZ527" is located has a raised center instead of being round. Again, just another way to reduce the costs of manufacturing. It's still a great rifle. As you have stated in the past, the most overlooked rifle on the web. Great accuracy with cheap bulk ammo, superb materials, and excellent quality control. This rifle replaced my stainless Ruger Gunsite scout.
Hey, Rob! Thanks for the intel! Ill have to relay this to the individual who was considering making the mount to see what he wants to do, I greatly appreciate the information!
Good to see third-party manufacturers supporting this rifle. Do you know of any third parties that make barrels for this gun to? I would like to get a barrel that is cold hammer-forged AND chrome-lined for the day when the simple Blued Barrel wears out. Yes. I know that will probably be over 5000 rounds later, but I want my grandchildren to be able to still shoot the rifle 120 years from now and a replacement barrel (plus a couple spare extractors and firing pins) would help.
The straight bolt you used your main pointer index finger and the ball bolt you used the middle finger and seemed much faster. IS that on purpose due to the different angles on bolt. I dont drink RedBull before the range because I would be shooting too much ammo:):) Great video brother
Todd The GunGuy lol love me some red bull. But yeah, with the swept back bolt handle, it puts your trigger finger much closer to the trigger. I just practice the middle finger pull because it’s fun and is actually a bit faster.
Good thing I listened to you and I got mine in 7.62 x 39 last February. Where did you get those magazine pouch? I got the mosy nagant pouch the ones you used to use but I like those leather ones. Let me know please. I always enjoy your videos.
After installing the bolt handle and doing the extractor mod, my safety wouldn't engage on a closed bolt. I scratched my head and spent a day trying to figure out if I did something wrong. Turns out the safety locks into the bolt handle and the hole that was drilled wasn't deep/big enough.
Yes they will. I was pointing out the issue with the factory lever of the older CZ527. This lever is modeled after the newer profile levers that have better clearance.
Just wanted to let you know that the rear sight on the 7.62 gun is backwards. I don't know if you mentioned it in another video or just wanted to have the knob on the same side as the bolt to keep the other side slick. But i just figured i would mention it. Great videos as always
@@ZRUSOutdoorsChannel oh wow! Okay. Sorry about that. Asked a question about adjusting the peep and was shown it the other direction. Surprised why it is the way it is as the other way puts the peep closer to your eye.
i could be wrong, but i think the CZ bolt handle is good for both side, so long as you dont order the swept back handle.. but that is a question for Glades.
Where could I buy a buttstock magazine holder like the ones you have? They look really nice and handy on the 527. Thank you for the videos, I just bought my own swept-back ball knob handle!
CZ527 are notorious for being difficult to bolt quickly. If you load the bolt off axis on the closing stroked they can jam up. This was especially true if you had a scope mounted. The scope necessitates having to reposition your hand to clear the scope and she jams up. This was highlighted in one of MAC (Military Arms Channel) videos as well and got a non-recommend from him because of it. I sold mine for this very reason. Regardless of how much I cycled and lubricated, it still would jam up when bolted quickly. Now having said that, I really missed this rifle. You are absolutely right, totally under rated in quality, accuracy, and pricing. So after watching your videos, I took the plunge and picked up another. I took my time in selecting my CZ. I brought some snap caps with me and the clerk was nice enough to let me run them through four different rifles before finding one that was smooth as butter out of the gate. Snapped it up and thanked the clerk who was very patient. Now I am on the lookout for another in 556 to get a matched set much like yourself. Getting back to my question, which of the two bolts handles is best when you are running a scope. I suspect it's the straight bolt handle on the 556 you have demoed. I really like the iteration with the turned back handle and ball knob. Let me know and I will make the order. Thanks for the great videos, you are the best.
Hey, Rob, I have put out a video on how i corrected my sloppy bolt handle fix, and i can run my bolt fast now. As for the Glades bolt handles, I dont notice too much of a difference.in scope clearance between the two. But the swept back handle places my hand right around where it needs to be when i come off the handle. As for the knobs, i would stray away from the large ball end for tight scope clearances. Happy shooting!
@@ZRUSOutdoorsChannel Well that's perfect. Thanks again ZRUS. I picked up a set of Burris rings and have a 1.5-4 Leupold on it now. Unfortunately, they are not QD, but they are solid and well made. Going to invest in a set of Warne QD rings in the new year, and will put a 2-7 Leupold on it. I really like using the rifle without a scope, but the eyes are getting tired so optics are becoming a necessity. I see in one of your other videos that you mounted a Burris MTac scope. I have a 1-6 Primary Arms ACCS scope with 30mm tube that I was contemplating putting on it, but it's pretty big and heavy and overpowers the gun. Anyway, thanks again for your help.
Cz,s are set up really tight around the bolt from the factory mine did the same thing I have a CZ 527 204 Ruger I just took the grease oil off all off of it and cycle the bolt 300 or so times and then I regreased it and it works smooth class nice and tight and smooth
@@ZRUSOutdoorsChannel Thanks Bro. I love my 527 in .223. Dealer did not have one in 7.62 X 39 , but I bought one in a Ruger American It's awesome too. Just not a beauty like my 527. I love them both. Can't hunt deer here with the .223, but can with the 7.62 X 39MM. Oct 1st. opening day.
@@grumpygrumpgrump136 nice! What round will you be using ? I have silver bear, with a soft lead tip, but have yet to take it hunting. cant hunt with a rifle here in Illinois. But i plan on moving to America some time and this will be my deer rifle then.
@@ZRUSOutdoorsChannel If The dies I ordered will ever come in I plan to work up a load. I have all the components but no dies. if not I will have to use a Russian hollow point that I have a few boxes of laying around here . I have Remington Brass, and Hornady 125 grain ballistic tip bullets. Make the move to America my friend. Illinois is full of great people that can smell the freedom that is just across the border. Move on down to Mississippi. Lots of freedom and deer as well. Pretty good fresh water and salt water fishing to boot.
What is the threading on the bolt knobs. I just purchased one in black with the ball knob and now think I would like to try a different knob but I cannot find CZ 527 knobs on the Glades Armory site.
glades armory your website is messed up. i tried to buy 3 times it keeps taking me to my old paypal account which is locked. why? cant you people add a simple pay with credit card link? your losing business due to bad management. good video by the way, im trying to buy but cant
Speed shooting? I see the 'mad minute' exercise and wonder, huh? Whereas the history of bolt action rapid fire is rich and meaningful in military application, I utterly fail to see the use with what is essentially a hunting rifle. Five or ten wild shots in the air is far easier with an SKS or AK 47. With all my negativity, I applaud and second the idea of using a 'hasty sling' for offhand shooting. The extra ammo pouches on the butt stock would are better suited on the trouser or utility belt. That aside, I do like the way CZ has made the bolt handle replaceable for reason. I imagine from a design perspective, the handle might be broken and need replacing. The idea of fitting around a telescopic sight is inviting, as the first scope I bought for mine did not work with the bolt. Oops. However, I found a Leopold fixed, low power scope (7.62z39mm at 1000 yards? Not on my watch). With that rifle, I think a 'dog ear' or 'spoon' type bolt would be fitting and look good on the rifle. As long as I'm dreaming how about the same basic stock, in Mannlicher (all the way to the muzzle) fashion? And I rather like the Turkish walnut. I am working on a 150 grain bullet load. It puts the 7.62x39mm into the .30-30 Winchester category. Which is not a monster, but effective in deer and smaller critters. A rifle to be carried a lot and shot only sparingly.

Hey just ordered the one with ball ,,,warning this video is contagious, to spend more money 💰 🤑 💸 😀
I run the ball handle on my 7.62x39 it’s so much better than the tiny stock handle
@@ZRUSOutdoorsChannel yes I saw that that's why I ordered one , yesterday thank u for tip man can u bolt like a semi auto
So won't work on older 527 with scope?
Yes they will. I was pointing out the issue with the factory lever of the older CZ527. This lever is modeled after the newer profile levers that have better clearance.
How tightly do they fit the bolt body? DO they slop around like the OE bolt?

The underside of the sight has a notch in it that locks into the receiver and can only be mounted this way.
@@ZRUSOutdoorsChannel oh wow! Okay. Sorry about that. Asked a question about adjusting the peep and was shown it the other direction. Surprised why it is the way it is as the other way puts the peep closer to your eye.
What kind of leather mag pouches are those
made by steel rain provisions. I have a full video on these on my channel. Highly recommended. ua-cam.com/video/E4C67pAM-ec/v-deo.html
Which optic is this?
So what happened with the scout scope mount?
Very good
Do they ship to UK ?
Do they make a LH version?
i could be wrong, but i think the CZ bolt handle is good for both side, so long as you dont order the swept back handle.. but that is a question for Glades.
Would be nice if available in left hand.
