Looking for a full pic rail for CZ 455. I’ll be throwing my spuhr/amg combo on there until I get a dedicated optic for it.
Is the Area 419 the best option, or is there something else?

I think Near Mfg makes them as well but that could be bad memory.
I know EGW makes them but the quality level that Area419 brings to the table far surpasses what you get from EGW. Near makes very good stuff, if they make it then I'd say it's a toss up between their stuff and the base Jon is making. Long answer short, you're not going to go wrong by buying the rail from Area419
The best setup is the Murphy’s with the receiver drilled and tapped though a weee bit overkill lol.
What rings are those?
Are they lows? .92Yep, vortex pmr 34mm

I noticed that on my new rifle with the lower DIP rail. Looks to be about half as tall as my 419 was on my Tacticool.I just put on the 419 rail. It’s well made. The only thing I don’t like is how much fun taller it is compared to the dip. The dip really feels like an airsoft rail
BingoPretty sure it’s at the rear of the base/receiver.
That's what I thought. They are classy looking units.Yep, vortex pmr 34mm
I just got an Area 419 rail for my new CZ. However, when I was trying to install it I encountered a lot of resistance. I didn’t feel comfortable to keep forcing it on there. Did you have this when you installed yours or did it just slide right on?I just put the 419 on mine for the 455 I just got. It was worth it. The egw and dip were nice too, but I know the 419 isn't going to move and is quality for sure.

Thanks for this! Wouldn’t have tried it otherwise, but it seemed to work great. I talked with Area 419 about it and they sent me another one free of charge (great customer service). They said it happens about 1 out of every 100 they send out. Their new base they sent didn’t slide on either, and their guess was that there must be a wide variation of CZ’s tolerances.It's a tight fit by design. Use a heavy cloth or leather to cover the rail/receiver, and/or use a rubber mallet to tap it all the way on. It'll go with a little persuasion.
Put the rail on a hot plate.Thanks for this! Wouldn’t have tried it otherwise, but it seemed to work great.

I bet that Area 419 doesn't have the dimensional blueprint for the 11 mm dovetail and designed their rail after measuring a small number of samples.Their new base they sent didn’t slide on either, and their guess was that there must be a wide variation of CZ’s tolerances.
