Looks for Match

Looks for Match (2/11)

  1. I use only nickel coated mags. AFC is initially slicker, but wears off easily. My nickel coated mags look like a new after many years of hard use.
  2. With all mags? Only the first round? Also when mag is not fully loaded?
  3. What happens to the top round?
  4. Extra power spring is a wrong fix for feeding problem. It just covers the actual problem. Check your guns breach face bottom edge, bottom of slide, extractor and feed ramp. All my CZ's are having reduced power magazine springs for greater capacity, more reliable locking and reduced power recoil spring (less friction). No feeding problems.
  5. You can order your 1911 and 2011 from many custom builders without the grip safety.
  6. The link for spring calculation page was supplied few posts ago. It will give you the spring rate. You got the rest right.
  7. If you are looking for a reliable slide lock use the factory follower. You can trim it for greater capacity, but don't expect the same as with Grams or CZC followers..
  8. In the calculations you need to know how much spring is compressed. The slide cycle will not fully compress the recoil spring. You can multiply the spring rate by compression length to get calculated lb value. This is usually quite close to the measured lb value. Be careful in the spring diameter measurements. A small error will make a big difference in the spring rate.
  9. Mag release looks quite beaten. Try to use less force when inserting mags.
  10. I've seen the same happening to quite new guns. Shouldn't be worn out springs then.
  11. The new optics divisions are finally getting dedicated models. CZ Shadow 2 Optics Ready was just announced and now is CZ P-10 C OR on factory's web page.
  12. Thank's. It seems to have TSO style trigger guard, but old style dust cover.
  13. Read also posts below quoted. It was IPSC list not IDPA. Shadow 2 doesn't make weight in IDPA.
