    My CZ isn't threaded to accept a mod but would like to get one fitted in the near future.

    The problem is this. The front iron sight has a protective "tube" around it which looks like it is part of/welded to the barrel. This is located at the very end of the barrel and would need to be removed.

    Can this be removed (by a gunsmith) to allow for threading or is the gun just not designed to retro fit a mod?

    Thanks in advance,
    Paj

    That "tube" as you call it is not welded to the rifle it's made of spring steel and is easily removed by inserting a long nose pliers from one end and pulling the handles apart this will widen the cover and you can lift it off.

    My son had to get the front sight removed when he got his CZ Lux 223 threaded.

    Just one more question. One of the gun dealers I phoned to price a mod from said that it won't make a big difference to muzzle report on the .22wmr.

    Anyone have any expierence on this? Are they worth getting?

    (ok, ok so it was two questions!)

    It will be similar to an unmoderated .22lr but depends on the mod used aswell.
