Gentlemen.

I know that there is several of you guys that use a Brno or CZ action (600,602 or 550) either as an original rifle or in any kind of custom configuration.

I use both the 600 and 602s. I can only speak for my self but for me the ultimate action is the original old one with the integrated peep. I can't think of a better action/rifle for a good hard working safaririfle for an affordable price.

In my part of the world these integrated peep ones happens to be scarce and harder to find each day.

Both of my custom 602s (375 H&H and 416 Rigby) has the newer actions without those sought after peeps. And this has bothered me ever since I bought them.

Therefore I was very happy and pleased when I got to know John McLaughlin on a rifle site on Facebook,and he told me he could make his "Rigby style peeps" to fit a Brno action.

Halleluja. For me this is not a second best option but in my mind a top grade nice and "historic" upgrade to our great rifles.

What do you think? It looks great huh

Btw. I KNOW that these peeps work even better than they look! Can't wait to try them out.

Hi Rino,

I think those peep sights look fantastic and solve a problem. Add a peep sight to a rifle with QD scopes. Some of the posts on there are talking about a peep sight where thge scope mounts would go, so one not the other ...

I have been looking off and on for a .30-06 CZ ZKK 600 with pop up peep sight for some time. No 600's at all, well almost none. There is 7x57 currently but I couldn't re-barrel that! I would keep it. The plan has been to rebarrel a .30-06 to .318 WR. But I do want a peep sight as well, so one of these would be better than nice,

BTW when posting photos if the extension is an apple extension, ie .jpeg instead of .jpg, use an URL instead of image codes. Then people can just click on it to view it. These forums can only use 3 digit graphic extensions.

Will give it a try.
