Currently, the Sa vz. 58 Sporter is the only version allowed for import under US law. All parts of the rifle, including the 10 round single stack magazine, are made in the Czech Republic. This 10 round magazine is made of high impact plastic resin that has been thoroughly tested. Tests include: dropping loaded magazine repeatedly onto a concrete floor, and withstanding crushing pressure from the weight of an automobile tire.
In addition, US law prevents the importation of semi automatic rifles with bayonet lugs. Therefore, all D-Technic manufactured rifles are unable to accept the vz. 58 bayonet.
Important Note: This rifle uses 10 round single stack magazines only and is unable to use 30 round magazines. In addition, this rifle is not capable of using stripper clips.
