Erik,

The only thing that I know is that a member at AR tried importing one of these rifles and ran into trouble with the BATFE who seemed to think that since it was built on a Mauser action it was a military weapon.

Apparently these rifles are made on military VZ 24 type actions and after the split in Czechoslovakia, a private concern bought the Brno name as well as the plant in Brno itself. The company itself is very poor in answering any e-mail sent to it, something that does not surprise me about any East European business.

If I remember right, New England Custom Guns offered actions from the Brno company some years ago and some cheap rifles with their Mauser actions bedded in plastic stocks were offered in the USA by someone else, but I have not heard of any of the Damascus guns being sold here with the exception of the one that I just told you about.

I'll try sending them another mail and hope that they reply this time. Wish me luck!
