Czech and Russian Surplus Rifles at Collectors Firearms

Collectors Firearms carries a rotating lineup of Czech and Russian surplus rifles, pistols, and military-surplus ammunition. Several current CZ-52 pistols are consignment pieces from individual collectors, with production details, serial numbers, import markings, and condition varying between examples. Browse below to see what’s currently on the shelf, from prewar bolt-action rifles to Cold War-era sidearms.

VZ 24 Rifles Across Different Military Contracts

Our VZ 24 rifles for sale span more than one manufacturing chapter. Recent listings have included a 1939 Romanian-contract VZ.24 chambered in 8mm Mauser with a 24-inch barrel, a 1929 example built by Československá Zbrojovka with a possible Spanish Civil War contract history, and a second Romanian-contract VZ24 dated to the 1939 to 1941 production window. Bore condition and finish differ between these examples, which is exactly why production contract and condition notes matter more than a single blanket description would.

CZ-52 Pistols From Cold War Production

Multiple Cold War-era CZ-52 pistols for sale have been represented in our inventory, several of them consignment pieces from private sellers. Recent stock has included 1953 and 1954 production models chambered in 7.62x25mm with 4.5-inch barrels, along with a Česká Zbrojovka Strakonice-made example featuring a 4.7-inch barrel. Bore condition ranges from bright with strong rifling to light surface frosting, and we note rifling and finish separately in each CZ-52 listing rather than describing the pistols as a uniform group.

BRNO Rifles and Earlier Czech Military Production

Beyond the VZ 24 and CZ-52, our Czech surplus rotation has included an early-1920s Zbrojovka Brno BRNO 98/22 bolt-action rifle and a 1956 Vz. 52 semi-auto rifle chambered in 7.62x45mm. BRNO rifles for sale like the 98/22 represent an earlier chapter of Czech military production than the VZ 24 examples currently represented in the category.

Czech Surplus Ammo for the Vz. 52 Platform

At Collectors Firearms, we also carry ammunition associated with firearms represented in this category. Recent inventory has included Czech surplus ammo for sale in 7.62x45mm, including a 1964 Sellier & Bellot military-surplus load for the Vz. 52 rifle with Berdan primers and lacquered steel cases. Having period-correct Czech surplus ammo for sale listed alongside the corresponding rifle is exactly the kind of detail we offer as a dedicated Czech firearms dealer.

Individual Consignments Keep the Czech Surplus Selection Varied

Because a portion of our Czech and Russian surplus rifles come from individual consignors, inventory reflects what collectors are actually parting with rather than a single distributor’s catalog. That also means a specific rifle or pistol may not be restocked in the same configuration once it sells. If a particular example catches your eye, it’s worth checking back or reaching out, since the next Czech surplus arrival may look nothing like the last one.
