Probably looking for a needle in a stack of needles, but I'm in need of a front sight protector for a Czech VZ33. Any ideas where to start? Thanks.

Contact / search Numrich or SARCO, best I can recommend. There's a on-line store in Canada, "MARSTAR" that might help BUT use caution regarding the ITAR regulations.

Good luck

Hoosier Gun Parts, 4.00 and/or Google military gun parts for many other sites!

SARCO does have a protector for the (later) 33/40. Not sure if it's exactly the same, though.

Not even close! And it must be a repro as these are very scares, repros are ok of course when real is not available.

Not all VZ33's had a sight protector hood. Apparently only the carbine(the 33/40) issued to German Mountain troops did.

The VZ33 is a Czech rifle, the 33/40 is a German alteration of it. All VZ33's had a sight 'protector' all 33/40's had a sight 'hood'.43019 VZ-33 w/bayo.43020 33/40's (at bottom).
