Does anyone know for sure who made this? Presumably CZ?

I've 2 like that but mine are very much junior sized, are you saying yours is full size?

Is it similar to a Slavia 618 with alternative markings ? or something else altogether ?

If "the former", it could be well be not so sought after, and alternatively if "something else altogether" (based on the images provided), it also might also not be so sought after !

Having looked at the images provided, IMHO, neither alternative suggests a high selling price (as they appear to show an item looking suspiciously like a low quality Post War Eastern European product sold in this country from the 50's onwards at a remarkably low retail prices).

Any of the above is JMHO based on the images provided, and having viewed them as such, £60 strikes me as being a good selling price for what' on offer, but I'm always happy to be proven wrong by those making genuine offers to purchase at anything more.

I would say it’s similar to a 618 but obviously older but not sure how much by?

I do have a 618 packed up somewhere I will have to find it.

I would say it is long like an adult rifle but obviously is very thin as these all seem to be much like a 618.

I will take a few more closer pics of sights and length and Hopefully Garvin may be able to post them here for me?

Just to clear one thing up, when I said rare I wasn’t thinking rare as worth a fortune or anything just that I’ve never seen another and I’ve owned one since the age of 5 and been shooting ever since, but bare in mind I don’t go to auctions or anything. Never seen one of these on here for sale or another site although always see 618’s and such

Thanks for any help so far

Hi Dan, I've got a very similar rifle to yours. Mine is the ZV3, which my dad bought for me when I was 11 (in 1958!). It's smaller than the one you have, and if you look on www.vzduchovka.cz, you'll find loads of Czech guns. As to the monetary value, I don't think many people collect these, so it won't be high. Maybe £60 as already suggested, even though I've never seen an example of yours or mine for sale. However, to you and me, a value can't be placed on it. Hope this helps.

The 'Z' symbol appears in the gallery in this collection of CZ rifles.

More pics of this rifle on the Czech forum here.

No problem with adding pics to this thread.

Hi mate,

Yes your right, it’s very centemental to me and it shoots very very well that is my other one as this one has never been shot only a few pellets in the ground.

It’s such a shame there’s nothing more about this rifle maybe if I spoke understood Czech I would find more out. I think if it was that it was worth £60 I wouldn’t think about selling and would rather keep it, it’s just as you say I’ve never seen one for sale I am curious as to what it is worth.

In my opinion you just can’t beat these old guns that are well made, they have such a good character about them, and even as simple as they are they are super accurate with it too.
Thanks
Daniel
