Verdict
Czech Weapons is a Czech firearms manufacturer separate from the better-known Česká zbrojovka (CZ) — a smaller producer focused on PCC and niche civilian semi-auto rifles for European and North American export. The CSV-9 is their flagship 9mm carbine — budget-tier pricing relative to the CZ Scorpion EVO 3 (Batch 8) at $1,199–$1,599 CAD. Reached the Canadian market in small quantities through 2017–2024. SOR/2024-248 named it on December 5, 2024. The Czech-export postmortem on the Index now traces both ends of the Czech commercial-rifle market: CZ at the major-brand tier (six platforms across the Index) and Czech Weapons at the smaller-volume tier. The complete Czech commercial-rifle export footprint to Canada is now Already Gone.
