BRNO

All Offers Considered Brno ZH marks the series of combination guns and double-barrel shotguns manufactured by Zbrojovka Brno and later by the CZ company The receiver of the combination version is designed to accept scope mounts, featuring a 14.5mm dovetail grove for mounting purposes whereas the shotgun versions do not come with a dovetail option. Rifles are opened and loaded by pushing the lever on the upper rear side of the action to the right. The safety is positioned at the front end of the trigger guard protruding outward in the direction of the barrel which is somewhat unusual. It comes in a form of a circular knob which blocks the triggers and firing spring. With combination models, the upper barrel is chambered for standard rifle calibers and the lower barrel for shotgun gauges – although it is usually the other way around with other manufacturers. One interesting feature is the arrangement of the triggers since the front trigger only activates the upper barrel whereas the rear one has the option to activate both – first the lower and then the upper barrel. This allows for the rear trigger to act as a single trigger. The trigger assembly is designed in such a way primarily for one reason, namely, to allow two consecutive shots when using the shotgun barrels configuration. Using only one trigger for both barrels makes for faster firing instead of having to switch between the front and the rear trigger. Additionally, the front trigger can be purchased with a set trigger option.
