Brünner ZH

Brünner ZH Rifle Review

CZ Brno is a well-established company that has been manufacturing small arms for many years. They have a reputation for producing high-quality firearms that are used by shooters and hunters around the world.

For some time, Frankonia distributed and sold Brno rifles under the name "Brünner" specifically for the German market. The reason for this was that "Brünner" is the German translation for the town of Brno in Czechoslovakia, where CZ Brno is located. This allowed German consumers to easily identify the rifles as being made by a respected Czech manufacturer. This approach is quite common in the firearms industry, where manufacturers will sometimes use distinct names for the same product to target different markets. Thus, the term "Brünner ZH" is used here to refer to all Brno models that come with a 14.5 mm flat top dovetail for mounting purposes.

Despite being referred to as Brünner rifles, the receivers or any other structural components of the firearms were not stamped with this name or altered in any other way.

While the Brünner 16 and Brünner 19 names are widely recognized and well-known, there are occasional references to another model, the Brünner ZH. These firearms are also widely recognized as "Brünner" in Germany, due to the company's association with the Brünner name in the German market.

Even today, some manufacturers of optic mounts and accessories still use the name Brünner or Brünner CZ in their catalogues. One such example is Recknagel, a German company that produces a wide range of shooting accessories, including mounts and bases for scopes and other optics.

Repeatable mounts take all advantages of detachable mounts to a new level. All the advantages of detachable mounts, which are:

  • Detachable mounts offer possibility to use multiple scopes on one rifle,
  • enable easy transportation of the scope and the rifle separately,
  • in an emergency if the scope fails you can immediately detach it and use iron sights are upgraded with,
  • 100% repeatability, which means that you zero all your scopes only once and then you can use them on one rifle in any combination you prefer and as many times as you wish.

Such mounts are ideal for hunting rifles, where you can use the same rifles with different optics on many different types of hunts. The perfect combination of different optics on one rifle can be described in this fashion:

  • Red dot sight or wide angle riflescope for driven hunts,
  • 1.5-6x42 or similar for stalking,
  • 3-12x56 for low light hunting.

You can add as many different optics to this setup as you wish, since this is the main concept of repeatable mounts. Easy transportation of optics and rifle separately is only an additional bonus.

There are however many different types of repeatable mounts, of which the most common are:

There are also many other similar repeating mounts.
