US embassy cable - 05PRAGUE510

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

1.  The company CairoCZ, which has ordered 35 American 
hunting rifles of various makes,  is known to hunters at the 
Embassy.   The Company was only founded late last year by 
Radim Polach,  who had previously worked at DETEX, a Czech 
company with three divisions: International Sales, Detonators 
and Explosives, and the Division of Import and Distribution 
of Hunting and Sporting Guns and Ammunition.  Mr Polach was 
previously the head of this last division, before leaving to 
start his own firm.  Polach is also the head of a local gun 
club and a competitive marksman. 
 
2. Polach's customers are hunters in the Czech Republic, 
particularly in Moravia,  where his firm is located.  Polach 
understands the restrictions on re-export or retransfer and 
has no intentions of sending the rifles outside of the Czech 
Republic.  The company has the import permits for the U.S. 
rifles from the Ministry of industry and Trade.
