Ok, long and short of it. Rented a CZ Shadow 2 Blue and loved it, but then read about the upgraded Orange and bought one. Its a great pistol, but I have two issues.
1) I find the red fiber optic front sight really difficult to see against the black of a target. Has anyone tried to replace the fiber optic with another color? If so, what did you use? I see tons of fiber optic replacement sets on Amazon of varying colors and diameters. My local gunsmith says it's so easy even I can do it. (Dont think its a real insult- Im pretty handy). Barring that, anyone swapped the sights out for some actual glow dots (various brands Truglow, Tritium, etc.)? I found out that the Orange takes a different front sight than the Blue.
2) I really detest the wide shelf style left side safety. It is HUGE and sharp edged and gets in the way of the slide release. I almost need two hands to get around it. (On the Blue, I was able to engage both the safety and the slide release easily with my right thumb without losing my grip). I really want the flat (flatter?) side on the left (for me, a right handed shooter). Please dont say I need to get used to it-wont happen. It isnt comfortable for my thumb over, on, or under it. Every place I look online says they are back ordered & Im not sure if the one for the Shadow 2 Blue will fit the Orange. Hate it. Love the gun. Thanks!
