help finding a cz 452 american left hand 22lr

[greyling22]

I'm looking for a left handed cz 452 american in 22lr and can't seem to find one anywhere in america that is **IN STOCK**

czusa is backordered, whittakers is backordered, buds and impact are oos. striking out with gunbroker, armslist and gunsamerica as well. google and bing shopping and searching is not turning up anything in stock either. I'm not married to new, but I can't find a used one either.

help! the money for it is burning in my pocket and I fear that my wife will spend it on shoes and jackets!!!

I don't know if you are aware of it, but the 452,453 in all variations have been discontinued. Some are still being sold but most are gone. The 452-3's have been replaced with 455's which are very good firearms. I am not sure if they are made yet in the LH virsion. A call to CZ USA, or CZ Custom may get the answer you are looking for.

Good luck, I was able to get 3, 452 Americans, and a 452 Lux before they ran out. I also have a 455 Varmint that shoots just as good as the 452's

You may also go to the Rimfire Central forum, CZ/ Brno section and ask there. Someone may have a tender heart and sell one

rimfirecentral.com put a wtb ad in the classified.

they're still making the 452's in left hand. or at least that is what the cz website says. CZusa says they're backordered and expectiong a shipment. cz custom says they don't have any.

I intend to post on rimfirecentral as soon as the mods get my account straightened out so I can post. (didn't get banned, just something funny with my account permissions)

I'll keep an eye out at Whittakers. It's 45 minutes away and I get there a couple times a month.

I finally got through to them this morning. They're currently out, but he said call periodically. It looks like a neat place with great prices. Wish I could swing by a couple times a month.

This one is expensive but... the only one I can find.

hey you found one! it must be newly listed. but wow it sure is spendy.

 

[bamajoey]

That's not spendy, its a rip off. I got my last one 18 mos ago for $350. LH shouldn't be worth $175 more. Maybe something cheaper will come along.

I've been looking for one as well!

This is an email that C Z sent me when I inquired if they had any and still planned on producing them, from the beginning of October.



"They might be tough to find in stock, our rimfires have been very popular this year. The best way to get ahold of one is to place a backorder, we fill them on a first in/first out basis, so the sooner you order the sooner we’ll get it out to you.

Thanks!
