CZ Scorpion 3 Magpul Edition

CZ USA and Magpul collaborated on the Scorpion 3 to offer an ergonomic, fully equipped carbine right out of the box. The CZ Scorpion is regarded as one of the more durable and reliable pistol carbines on the market and is used by militaries and law enforcement all over the globe. The third iteration of the Scorpion introduced upgrades to the controls and features to suit the preferences of the American market and update ergonomics. Now, with the combination of those upgrades, Magpul accessories bring it to the next level. The parts provided by Magpul are the ESK safety selector, MBUS flip-up front and rear sights, Zhukov-S folding stock, MOE Evo pistol grip, MVG vertical foregrip and the Magpul enhanced magazine release. Many users purchase these parts separately to equip their Scorpions but this accomplishes those steps right from the factory. Magpul magazines are regarded as some of the best and most reliable on the market, so naturally this comes with a Magpul Scorpion 35-round magazine. An M-Lok rail allows the user to fit their carbine with endless accessories, while A 4-prong flash-hider tops off the Magpul/Scorpion collaboration.
