I'll try to make this short...I was part of a group buy at another forum way back in 2008. The forum worked with Ohio Rapid Fire who made receivers and 922 parts along with czech parts kits which were built into complete rifles by Veronesi Custom Firearms.
http://www.theakforum.net/files/VZ58-BUILD.pdfI bought the gun, poop happens, I move away, the gun gets put up unfired. Years later I find out there are feeding problems and start looking into only to find out find out ORF is no more because the owner kicked at age 33. Life is still crazy and i dont have the time or motivation to deal with it so the gun goes back in storage. Fast forward to 2017 and new commifornia laws require I make it safe/featureless (idiots, i can hardly wait to leave this freakin state) and now I have the bug to get it running like a Swiss watch.
So i have been reading and trying to figure things out with a bunch of posts that no longer have pics, watching any vids i can only to get frustrated and confused so I post on the site i went in on the group buy with only to get...buy a czech gun....which is fine, not possible but i understand and that is the best advice I have got.... now im here asking for your help.
The 1st & only problem I know of is a feeding issue (feeds nothing, zip, nada...bullets hit the barrel...about 1/16" too low). Some say its a low feed ramp, some say mag issue, some say that the missing half moon cut out next to bolt hold open is the issue, some say lack of bevel on bottom of bolt rails is the fix, I am not a smith or machinist but I am a tinkerer. I want to go through and do what I can and if necessary send it to a smith if welding is required. Where should I start and what else should I check?
Thanks for your patience and I look forward to getting some help with this.
