New to me BRNO no. 4
New to me BRNO no. 4
I won a BRNO no.4 rifle at an online auction this weekend. Looks like it is good shape.

Looks good. Tell us how it shoots once you pick it up.
Damn, I'll bet that's going to leave a mark! Probably hurt too!

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

Nice. I have a BRNO #1. They are good rifles.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Are they similar to the current CZ line of .22 rifles?
Re: New to me BRNO no. 4
My #1 has a new CZ mag in it, so yes, they are very similar.

Re: New to me BRNO no. 4
It is a nice looker. I about guarantee its gonna be a good shooter
Re: New to me BRNO no. 4
Thanks, guys!
The rifles that I got at the auction all arrived at my FFl yesterday and all of them look great. The BRNO model 4 was in particularly nice shape and came in its original box. It honestly looks like it has never been fired, as does a Model 70 target rifle that I got at the same auction.
I'll take some better pictures when the 10 day "cooling off" period is over.
But here is a pic of the "bits" included with the rifle.
Later, when I was looking at the manual, this fell out...
