Looks for Target

Looks for Target (4/11)

  1. Double action trigger pull of 5-5.5# is easy to get, not a problem. My issue was too light of a single action trigger pull at 1.5#. The sear spring increased the single action trigger pull from 1.5# to 2# which is what i was trying to achieve.
  2. Was not satisfied with my S2 trigger pull. I use a 14# hammer spring minus 4 coils and had a 5# da and 1.5# sa pull. Sa pull was too light for my liking. Found some increased power sear springs online at https://www.cz-parts.com/search?query=Sear+spring and purchased a .07, .075 , and .08 wire diameter sear springs. Factory wire diameter was.062. I first tried the.075 sear spring and the sa pull went up to 2# and the da went up to 5.5#. Reset in nice and firm and the wall on the trigger prep is nice and firm. Got it right the first time and I like it a lot. Cost was $10 per spring and $25 UPS and arrived from Czech Rep in 5 days. Painless.
  3. Shadow 2 CO here. Been using 147gr Campro flat point @ 1.09”with zero issues and great accuracy. Recently switched to 3.2 titegroup since I can’t get VV320 at this time. Three inch three shot group @ 45 yds supported the other day. I like the recoil impulse as well.

    SP01 vs S2

    I have the S1 and the S2, both with optic. For me, there is no real time difference in the splits. The S1 points better for me cuz of the better balance. Therefore I get better overall scores with the S1. Your mileage may vary.
  5. Cz “retro grips” have a ledge. I use a 30 year old set of plastic cz factory grips with a bit of grip tape on the left side ledge. My favourite grips.
  6. I have the same issue. I changed to a Tanfo sear spring which has an extra coil and is a bit stiffer. It increased the single action pull by a few ounces. Still looking for something that will raise the single action to two pounds.
  7. I got this one from Toni Systems in Italy, I like the cocking serrations. Fits like a glove. Arrived in four days via Fedex.

    S2 DA pull reduction

    Cut four coils off the factory hammer spring and you will have about 5.5# double action and about 2# single action. Swap out the firing pin return spring with a reduced power one and you will ignite all primers.
  9. i reload and only run 147’s and 158’s in mine. I plunk test and never had any problems at all. OAL is about 1.10 to 1.11.
  10. My factory S2 hammer spring scaled at 14#. I cut 4 coils off resulting in 5.5 # d/a and 2 # s/a. Then cut 3 coils of factory firing pin spring. No extended firing pin. It ignites everything i have tried including CCI and S&B.
  11. I shoot a Shadow2 OR with a Vortex Venom. My second gun is a Ruger MK2 with a bull barrel, fat grips and a Vortex Venom. It weighs about the same as the S2 and flips about the same. Gripping, finding the dot, and pulling the trigger is not a problem after a few thousand rounds. Your mileage may vary.

    Shadow 2 OR in Prod

    Yes, the irons do stay zeroed for me. So does the Venom. The points of impact do not change. I use black nail polish on the front of the front sight to black it out.

    Shadow 2 OR in Prod

    I have an S2 OR with a Vortex Venom . I have switched back and forth from optic/irons a few times and have removed the plate to clean the extractor channel and finally to install a +p extractor spring. The points of impact barely changed at 25m if at all. I often use the Venom to rack the slide .
  14. I have done that trick to half a dozen Shadows and Shadow2 over the years. Worked every time. 5.5# da/ 2.25# sa. Clip 3 or 4 coils and see what happens. You are probably not using the factory spring anyways
