Description

The Sa vz. 58 Military Folder rifle is a semi-automatic rifle which is actuated by the pressure of gases on the
piston, the gases being produced in the barrel through combustion of the powder charge. A portion of gases
entering through the gas vent into the piston space causes the bolt to move automatically to its back position
at the moment of shooting. The bolt is returned to its front position by the pressure of the recoil spring.
The rifle is of simple construction and easy to handle. When correctly maintained and used, its firing function
is reliable and safe even under severe conditions, i.e. in dust, rain or at low and high temperatures.
The trigger mechanism enables it to only fire semi-automatically. The rear sight is of a folding leaf type. During
firing, the cartridges are continuously fed from a double stack 30 round magazine of an arch-like shape. When
disassembling the rifle for cleaning and storage purposes, no tools are necessary.
The weight and dimensions of the rifle allow it to be used very comfortably not only at shooting ranges, but
also when hunting in woods, mountains, and all other kinds of terrain.
