    # Actually, there used to be a rifle from Ceska Zbrojovka (CZ),
    # headquartered in Brno, Czech Republic called the ZKK (Brno is the name
    # of a town, not an arms manufacturer). The ZKK came in 3 models, the
    # 600, 601, and 602. All were bolt actions in European style hunting
    # configuration (schnabel forends and droopy, wide buttstocks). The
    # action is an updated Mauser action with a non-rotating claw extractor.
    # It has built in scope mounts, a la Ruger, except that they accept
    # regular Weaver style rings. Lock time is nothing spectacular, but
    # their triggers were delightful!

    # The ZKK600 was a medium length action which would accept cartridges up
    # to 3.15 inches OAL, and case head of 0.472. Generally, the box mag
    # would hold 5 cartridges, except for the 10.75x68, which limited
    # capacity to 4. Other cartridges the 600 was chambered in were 30-06,
    # 7x57, 9.3x62, 8x57, 8x64, and 270 Win.
    #
    # The ZKK601 was the short action version. It would take cartridges up
    # to 2.76 inches long and case heads up to 0.472 inches. Chamberings
    # included 222 Rem Mag, 222 Rem, 243 Win, and 308 Win. The mag would
    # hold 6 each of the 222s and 5 of the 243 & 308.
    #
    # The ZKK602 was the magnum length action. It will take cartridges up
    # to 3.75 inches with a head diameter of 0.552 inches or less. Its big
    # enough to hold 5 of the traditional "dangerous game" magnum
    # cartridges, which include 375 H&H Mag, 358 Norma Mag, and 458 Win Mag.
    # The ZKK602 comes with a three leaf express sight.
    #
    # ZKKs are classy guns. They were made of Czeck Poldi steel. The one
    # complaint I have (other than stock design which is easily remedied) is
    # that they have the stock screwed to the barrel about 6 inches forward
    # of the recoil lug. I feel like this limits the accuracy potential.
    #
    # The BBKs were the Korean copies. to the best of my knowledge BBKs
    # were only actions and were never assembled as complete rifles.
    # I could be wrong about that.
