if you have emailed us, even asking to be on the list, we have your information for when we send out an email campaign.
we are excited and getting flooded with calls and emails about this product. As im currently trying to fullfill CZ457 builds this month, if I or the ladies in the shop cannot respond or pick up your call, leave a voicemail or email requesting a call back. I'll be in and out of the shop testing our CZ457 builds as well as upgrading our shop as we prepare for new machinery to hit the floor.
THANKS for the patience and support in these exciting times. We are nearing launch ahead of schedule and finalizing a few small changes which include:
Larger port to accommodate 17HMR/22WSM
Setting barrel tennon closer to port opening for easier cleaning and access to chamber
Bore guide for cleaning
Mag buffers to be made in delrin or possibly aluminum

Thanks for thinking of all the big and little details, like the bore guide for cleaning - it’s little things like that which can make huge difference in overall quality perception for entire “package”.
Did you finalize price for barreled action yet? I would be fine putting 10% down non-refundable unless the price changes. In that case seems like I should have an option to pay the higher price or refund on deposit...
Kenny was burning up the midnight candle getting CZ backlogs out the door and on vacation. He’ll be back next week turning and burning.
The preference would be RimX mags, but the buffer system will work with all of them.

We provided some feedback on the initial testing. I’m waiting on my action to come back after a full heat treating for the next round.
Will provide some updates soon and you’ll hear from Kenny himself on the latest news for these.

Quick Update Fellas,
Have been extremely busy knocking out CZ builds and 2500x builds a long with fighting Meningitis. Slow recovery and low on energy but with little time I had, I did make the revisions on the action to accommodate changes per request.
The barrel extractor cuts are now easier to get to with the action cutout. I did also move the barrel closer to the ejection port. This will allow easy access with a tool for removal of fail to fire cases.
I am also working on my own firing pin assembly 1 piece to be made in S7. Through conversation with experienced folks who went down this road, as well as mine, I do not see a benefit of using half moon or offset firing pins as those who have seen the modifications done to the CZ457. The first batch I'm testing is a half moon, simply because of the ease of manufacturing. These will be compatible to current V22 360 owners. Their has been thread changes through the Gen 1.2- Gen 2.0 as far as sear block thread pitch, So if offered as a replacement, A firing pin and Sear block will be sold as a set. As emphasis, Im still a small manufacture as we expand so any parts made for now will be dedicated to our action demand first. I also am finalizing the Firing Pin Springs for this, these are certified music wire with a compounded spring rate. This reduces bolt lift on current V22's as well as my action while providing consistent 16-17lb striking force. Spring fatigue appears to be reduced due to the compound spring rate.
Its a challenge to design something to be compatible with other products, so focus on reliability has been based and designed around what has the best track record. We had request for scope rail change to 10-40 screws, however, This will not be happening since later designs for our own scope rail will be superior in rigidity using the dove tail as well as 10-40 screws. The 11mm dove tail will also aid us in manufacturing as a machine location keeping our action tolerances tight.
Our Material just hit the floor Friday and currently running action body's. Ill be updating more very soon
