is a new Czech company, making revolvers since 1990. They make them primarily
for Czech civilian and Police use, but also export some of them, primarily to
other parts of Europe. The Kora Detective is one of them; it is rimfire revolver
designed for concealed carry. The Detective’s frame is of a light zinc alloy.
The version of the Detective in .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire comes with an

Kora Flobert
Notes: This
revolver is chambered for the odd caliber of .22 CB Cap (known as 6mm Flobert in
Europe). This revolver is made in this chambering because a weapon made for such
a weak cartridge can be bought and owned without a license in many parts of
Europe. The revolver is otherwise a standard sort of rimfire revolver, with a
light alloy frame and steel barrel.

adjustable rear sight, and a variety of finishes, some of them quite fancy
(including engraving). Five types of grips are available. It is otherwise a
standard sort of revolver.

ZKR-590 Grand/Major
Notes: Made by
CZ, the Grand dates from the 1950s and is a basic magnum revolver. They are
based on Smith & Wesson revolvers of the period, and the resemblance is uncanny.
A variety of sight and grip options are available. The ZKR-590 Major is the same
weapon, but chambered for the .22 Long Rifle cartridge and meant for sport and
target shooting.
