CZ Scorpion Evo S1…Still Relevant?
I’ve had a CZ Scorpion Evo S1 in my collection for the past 5 years or so. It was my very first dive into the realm of the PCC (pistol caliber carbine) or subgun world. The CZ Scorpion is CZ’s answer to the HK MP5 and other subguns around the world. There has even been a recent updated version that’s been hitting the shelves in the last year or so. The particular CZ Scorpion Evo that I own started out life as an 8” barrel pistol version in 9MM. They also offer a K or micro version with a 4” barrel as well as a carbine version that has a 16” barrel and a stock. You want colors? The CZ Scorpion can be had in black, FDE, OD Green as well as grey. Mine is an OD Green version. The CZ Scorpion costs roughly 1/3 of the price of the HK MP5 in the U.S. market, maybe a tad less. The difference in price between the CZ Scorpion and an MP5 clone is much less. For folks wanting a PCC but not spend the amount commanded by HK for the MP5, the CZ Scorpion makes a lot of sense. You can scratch that subgun itch for a fraction of the cost, but that savings does come at a price.
When I first received my CZ Scorpion, there were a number of items I didn’t like right off the bat. The grip angle, the stock safety selector, the trigger as well as the handguard. I appreciated the original design, but knew that things could be much better. Luckily Brownells carries a number of components for the CZ Scorpion. The first upgrade I went with was a new handguard from Midwest Industries. The handguard is fairly easy to install. The trigger was polished and a new set of springs from HBI were installed. The trigger is much better than factory, but still can be much better overall. Subguns aren’t known for having the best triggers generally speaking. Parker Mountain Machine offers a nice set of replacement safety selectors which work very well over the stock safety. The grip is the Yeti switchback grip. Magpul has also started making components such as grips, but I’ve yet to try one out.
Some time later, I decided to do a full K conversion of sorts with the shorter 4” barrel from In Lead We Trust. This barrel has both a thread end as well as an integrated 3 lug adapter for suppressor use. Of course I had to also grab a shorter Midwest Industries handguard from Brownells. Most recently I decided to file a form 1 to SBR my CZ Scorpion so that I could add a stock assembly. For the stock, so far I’m running the Reptilia Zhukov setup, but may entertain other options later on.
So back to the original question… in a world with a number of PCC/subgun options such as the MP5, B&T GHM9/APC, Stribog and others, is the CZ Scorpion still relevant? I say absolutely! The CZ Scorpion is cheap enough, but still has the quality of a world renowned manufacturer behind it. Is it perfect? No. But it’s a gateway into other PCC options down the road. And with a little bit of money, the CZ Scorpion can be tailored and refined to your likes.

It's not worse, most 9mm ARs recoil as much as 5.56 ARs because they're a stupid design. Either Mp5 builds or hydraulic buffer guns like the apc9/ghm9 or extar ep9 have way better recoil impulse.
I know they're worse than a 9mm AR, but the MP5 just has incomparable drip.

9mm subguns, especially semiautomatic, are definitely a niche platform with limited practical application in the days of reliable ~10-12” SBRs, but they’re affordable to shoot and lots of fun. I also strongly considered a B&T GHM9, but the hk slap won out in the end.
It’s all coming together.

You can't change my mind. The GHM9 and ACP9K and are just Gucci Mac11s and Tec 9s.

Range Days are Great Days!
I’m a member of the North Carolina Gun Owners and maybe 1-2 times per year there’s a range day organized for whoever is able to attend. This was actually the very first year that I was able to attend with my busy schedule. Some of the members know that I do a lot of firearm projects as well as some content for Brownells so I took the opportunity to take a number of items with me that I picked up from Brownells and I thought the others would be interested in shooting.
We arrived at the private land late morning and I unpacked what I had brought along. The weather was great! Nice and sunny but with a good amount of wind… but that didn’t keep us from having a great time. Since many people had shown interest in my Henry lever action project from last year I was sure to bring that one along. What started as a basic Henry All-Weather in .44 magnum that I picked up from Brownells sure has had some major changes. Shortened and threaded by Madpig Customs and accessorized with Ranger Point Precision gear and topped off with the Brownells MPO Donut…it sure was a hit.
I also brought along a couple of sub guns, the Century Arms AP5 MP5 clone and my B&T GHM9 Compact, both of which came from Brownells over the years. Both suppressed of course using Rugged Obsidian QD suppressors…these 2 aren’t super common and was nice to share with the folks that attended the range day. The GHM9 Compact has an upgraded Geissele trigger and can be a lightning fast shooter when you want it to be.
Other folk there brought what they had. Finally had an opportunity to shoot a Springfield Armory Prodigy 9MM. This is their version of a 2011 double stack 1911 pistol. It was topped off with a Holosun red dot and felt perfect in my hands. I’m seriously considering picking one of these up now that I’ve had the chance to shoot one. I also had the opportunity to shoot a Ruger Precision rimfire bolt action rifle. Once I got dialed in I was hitting all the aspirin taped up on the target at 25 yards away. The aspirin challenge was something they had done in the past. We started up close at 7 yards trying to shoot small aspirin with our rimfire handguns and later moved back to the 25 yard line and were shooting them with rimfire rifles. It’s much harder than you’d think it would be! One really cool rifle I got to shoot was the folding 9MM carbine by Smith & Wesson. That sure was an interesting setup and handy too.
All in all it was such a wonderful day. Getting to see some of the new and long time members of the North Carolina Gun Owners forum. I did my best to represent my affiliation with Brownells and the shooting sports… of course I had my Brownells shooting hat on. Looking forward to the next organized range day with the NCGO…who knows what I’ll bring with me next time.
