Merry Christmas everyone, have a nice night. Simply, what do you think of my new acquisition? at 270 Winchester.

 

[Wyatt Smith]

Sweet!

 

[oscar1975]

Thank you.

What makes that one very special, and I am a big fan of these rifles, is that you kept the set trigger and you have a pop-up peep. Very nice and Merry Christmas .

Nice! I can see trigger was changed. Timney?

Nice. I have a soft spot for the ZKK range. Any rifle that brings you joy is a good one.

Nice pick up, what are you going to do with it ?

I bought two a while back, 270Win & 30/06 one with a very stuffed barrel & fitted a 602 .458 Barrel.
Also have a ZKK 601 in mint condition.

That is the factory Set trigger, hard to find ones here with out them fitted, they came with a little cloth bag with either Set or single trigger in it & a few small tools.

I bought a 601 223 action just to get a single trigger & pop up sight to fit to the .458Win.

That looks like a it's going to be a fun rifle!

Pre 1974 pop-up peep sight and original set trigger. You've got a real keeper for sure. The BRNO ZKK-600s chambered in .270 Winchester deliver the most accurate results with the 150Gr Winchester Super X Power Point, in my humble experience.

No, it's the original Brno straight trigger.

I'll leave it as it is.

Thanks, it was a stroke of luck.

Hello, I already received the Brno Zkk 600 rifle, it is a little more used than what can be seen in the photographs. What worries me is that the built-in diopter does not come up when pressing the corresponding button. Any advice and/or ideas? Thank you.

Remove the action from the stock and put some Kroil in there to loosen up the sight mechanism. If you do not have Kroil, use WD40. Failing that … an overnight soak in kerosene.

 

[93marlin]

There appears to be a little bit of rust visible. Most likely that is the problem.

 

[Sarg]

As @ZG47 says try a bit of lube first - Kroil or any good penetrating oil, then give it a light tap while pushing in the side plunger .

Do this before taking it apart, it is not tricky, as I think yours is a later model it will have one spring under the Peep/Diopter, the early models had two, when a scope is fitted for a long time & the rifle is used in the rain, a bit of moisture is going to get under there, the bit of light rust resulting will stick things up or even too much of the wrong oil can gum the works over time.

@ZG47 , @Sarg and @93marlin

Thank you very much for your advice. I only have WD 40, I will try to do it as you have told me and see if this product can unlock it.

 

[ZG47]

Take it slowly. If the sight does not move easily after the first overnight soak, wipe away the excess and apply some more. Be the tortoise!
