NiteQwill Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) I have a new Czechmate with a slightly different C-More mount than I've encountered before (on other Czechmates). Based on the holes and the various angles, is this for an adjustable thumb rest mount? Does anyone make a mount to accommodate the holes? This would be great since my Orange feels great with the thumb rest (which I feel is missing from the Czechmate).

Leadpilot Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I contacted CZ-USA about the thumb rest few times in the past year and they told me there wasn't one. I'd be interested in seeing the rest from Sebo weapons, but I can't seem to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you.It's not on the site but he does sell it (I know Robin from IPSC matches). It's a CZ part, he gets it from them (it's not on their website either). Maybe send him an email and ask for a picture. When mine gets here I'll take a photo but that might be a couple of weeks yet.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already have a thumb rest, I’m just curious to see the factory version. I went with a modified ipsc Alex so I could run a cheely mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would contact dealer you got it off and failing that CZ. I ordered a new mount and racker from Robin Šebo via email a couple of weeks ago.

Leadpilot Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Robin Sebo sent me a pic of the thumb rest. The rest and optic mount is €150 or about $175 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old style thumb rests for the CM should be avoided. I had an IPSC Alex thumbrest for my czechmate for several months. I kept losing zero and could never figure out why as the screw to the thumbrest and mount were secure. The reason being is that the scope mount MUST be secured by at least two screws directly to the frame via the counter sinks. With 2011's, this is easy as there are usually four to five mounting holes in the mount to the frame, unfortunately, the CM only has THREE. This makes it nearly impossible to mount an aftermarket thumb rest as the thumbrest will have two screws securing it and this leaves only one screw in the counter sink of the mount to the frame. This is why CZ has drilled holes into their latest mounts to accommodate a thumb rest that does not interfere with the mounting screws as pictured in the first post. CZ also sells the thumbrest by it self with the screws, so that you can drill and tap your older mount and add the thumb rest. This is what I have done as I have a CZ Custom multi mount with a DPP. I just bought the thumbrest from CZ and drilled and tapped the holes to accommodate the thumbrest. The thumbrest now works great, and no more losing zero .

With the new safety my hand is up higher and able to help my short thumb to release it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abb1 Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 (edited) Great, you will need a M3x.50 tap and use a #40 drill bit. The drill bit is important as if you use a 3/32 you will break the tap. Of course if you have a newer mount, you won’t have to worry about it as it has the holes pre drilled. Good luck!
