CZ-USA Model 527 American Suppressor-Ready “Mini Mauser”

CZ-USA’s 527 American Suppressor-Ready rifle includes a short, 16.5-inch barrel and a 5⁄8×24 threaded muzzle. These features allow adding a suppressor without turning the fast-handling carbine into something unwieldy.

CZ-USA’s single-set trigger allows shooters to adjust settings to their personal tastes, including pull weight (top front nut), creep (middle front) and overtravel (rear).

The action of CZ-USA’s 527 American Suppressor-Ready rifle is anchored by two bolts, the rear threading through the tang and a second located on the receiver flat just behind the recoil lug.

Added to the CZ-USA 527 rifle series in 2019, the Model 527 American Synthetic Suppressor-Ready, chambered in the 7.62x39mm Soviet, is a feathery and highly-maneuverable bolt-action carbine ideal for most hog- or deer-hunting scenarios involving moderate ranges. The 527 Suppressor-Ready (SR) would also provide an easy-handling rifle suited to small-framed hunters. Today’s popular 527 design began to evolve after World War II, influenced by waning military orders and a booming sporting market.
