CZ-USA 02391 CZ 457 .22 LR 24" 6-Round Left Hand Rifle

The CZ-USA CZ 457 .22 LR 24" 6-Round Left Hand Rifle is a precision small-caliber platform purpose-built for southpaw shooters who demand accuracy without compromise. Designed for target shooting, small-game hunting, and marksmanship training, this left-hand rifle eliminates the ergonomic disadvantages that southpaws face with traditional right-hand bolt actions. The CZ 457 platform has earned respect across law enforcement training divisions and competitive shooting communities for its reliability, accuracy, and shooter-centric design that accommodates left-handed operation naturally.

At 7.7 pounds with a 24-inch barrel, this rifle delivers the velocity and sight radius needed for consistent hits at distance while remaining lightweight enough for extended field use. The 6-round magazine capacity balances follow-up shot capability with practical hunting and training workflows. The left-hand bolt configuration positions the charging handle, safety, and magazine release on the shooter's dominant side, eliminating cross-body manipulation and reducing transition time between shots. CZ's attention to bolt geometry and receiver tolerancing produces the sub-minute-of-angle accuracy expected from .22 LR rimfire rifles in this class, making it ideal for zeroing fundamentals or precision pest control work.

Left-handed shooters in tactical training, competitive smallbore disciplines, and precision rifle schools will find the CZ 457 addresses a genuine market gap where left-hand options remain limited. The rifle accepts standard .22 LR ammunition and pairs well with rimfire-rated optics and suppressors for noise-reduced training environments. Its modular design philosophy means aftermarket stocks, rail systems, and upgrades developed for the CZ 457 platform expand functionality without requiring gunsmithing. Whether used for marksmanship instruction, small-game hunting, or ammunition-efficient training, this left-hand rifle delivers the ergonomic and accuracy performance that southpaw operators expect.
