Ceska Zbrojovka a.s. Uhersky Brod<\/em> (CZUB) of the Czech Republic has been in the firearms business since 1936, making just about every kind of gun imaginable. They began importing guns through normal channels in the US in 1991. In 1997, CZ established a US subsidiary that is currently based in Kansas City, Kansas. Through this subsidiary, CZ-USA<\/a>, they import, manufacture, distribute and service their entire line of firearms, which includes the iconic American Dan Wesson<\/a> revolvers and 1911 handguns.<\/p>\n

CZ recently began shaking the market up with several introductions; first came the Scorpion EVO pistol<\/a> and the Bren pistol<\/a>. They have now added the CZ Scorpion EVO 3 S1 Carbine<\/a>. The Scorpion Carbine is a 9mm. blowback semi-auto polymer fun machine. The Scorpion takes its name from the \u0160korpion vz. 61<\/a> personal defense weapon developed in the late 1950s.<\/p>\n

History<\/h2>\n

\"cz-vz-61-skorpion<\/a>A little history is required in order to understand the origins of this pistol-caliber carbine. The \u0160korpion was developed in the late 1950s by Miroslav Ryb\u00e1\u0159. His design was finalized and accepted by the Czechoslovakian security forces, and later by the Army, in 1961. The intended users of this .32 ACP gun were security forces that needed to maintain a low profile. The \u0160korpion was designed as a select-fire, blowback-operated machine pistol that can be fired from a closed bolt. To keep the gun compact, it was fitted with a telescopic bolt assembly that actually wraps around the barrel. The rate of fire of a typical blowback machine gun is typically controlled by increasing the mass of the bolt, slowing down the cycle rate. With the design of this bolt, it was not feasible to simply add more mass to the bolt. This resulted in a rate of fire north of 1,000 rounds per minute. This proved to make the gun fairly uncontrollable on full-auto fire, even with the over-folding wire buttstock extended. In an attempt to counteract this, a recoil-reducing device was installed in the wooden pistol grip, which reduced the rate of fire to a relatively controllable 850 rounds per minute.<\/p>\n
