Your photos are a little far away but that looks like peening not surface wear. No barrel or slide should be peening at the front of the hood.

Every CZ SP01 Shadow I have handled will auto forward if the mag slams in hard enough. I have not personally seen a feed issue from this. I have yet to slam a mag in hard enough during a match to cause my Shadow to auto forward. I certainly don't rely on it happening.

They are the best grips for large hands that I have found so far but they wear quickly. The grips on my practice gun are becoming smooth in spots and the grips start to get slick in practice because of perspiration, although this not an issue in matches (20 secs of shooting every 45 min).I still dont know why you guys change the stock grips. I love them so much. Perfect shape and arent just flat like the custom grips. Nice contours and fits the hand perfectly.
Can some one measure the scale grips on the gun for total thickness. The rubber grips are 1.420" except for the little nubs near the mag release which are 1.440 but don't really do anything.

ThanksAll work on the the 2014 model 91030 is done within IPSC and IDPA guidelines.
just as if you had done the upgrades.

I thought would be easier for people to look up the mods than me explaining it.I dug into this a little more. The issues appear to be the mainspring and slide polishing that is done. Is anybody at IPSC Nationals in the US going to care?
Any CZ OEM mainspring is fine.
Polishing; no. Fitting is fine.
"Appendix D4
16. Original parts and components offered by the OFM as standard equipment, or as an option, for a specific model
handgun on the IPSC approved handgun list are permitted, subject to the following:
16.1 Modifications to them, other than minor detailing (the removal of burrs and/or adjustments unavoidably
required in order to fit replacement OFM parts or components), are prohibited. Other prohibited
modifications include those which facilitate faster reloading (e.g. flared, enlarged and/or add-on
magwells, etc.), changing the original color and/or finish of a handgun, and/or adding stripes, stippling or
other embellishments."
IPSC Handgun Rules; http://www.ipsc.org/pdf/RulesHandgun.pdf
PS When asking if a gun is IPSC production legal it is not a good idea to specify the CZC model name.(or CZC at all).
Simply specify the parts used and work performed.
The only non ofm parts are the sights (which is within the rules) and the guide rod which IPSC specifically approved. I thought the hammer was an aftermarket part, it is not. Trying to avoid another gun purchase. Thanks for you input.

Ambiguous rules on work that offers no competitive advantage. My consciousness is good. Why do you need to muck up my thread with your quibles?I dug into this a little more. The issues appear to be the mainspring and slide polishing that is done. Is anybody at IPSC Nationals in the US going to care?
Let your conscience be your guide.

Looking at shooting IPSC nationals this year. I am shooting SP01 Shadows from CZ Custom, the 2014 model that lists at $1300. I think it is IPSC legal except the hammer. Am I correct? Or is it good to go?

What this guy said.
I never suggested stumbling around fumbling. In fact, that seems like would be a bad plan. I'm assuming a normal person can run and reload at the same time. If you can't do that, then perhaps a different strategy is in order (like practicing until you can run quickly while reloading).
I don't buy this. Stumbling around fumbling your reload is not an efficient use of time. Get it done, and get your eyes on where you are going....most of the time, it doesn't really matter how fast your moving reloads are, as long as you are moving and you finish it in time to start shooting early in the next position....
Based on bens feedback in class, I modified my reload strategy to start moving first and foremost, then worry about the reload. The result was significantly faster movement and faster stage times. It takes me the same time to move 5 yards between positions whether I reload on the way or not. It even takes the same time to move 2-3 steps regardless of whether I reload or not.
All the national class shooters I have observed in every division appear to do the same thing. They don't let the reload slow down their position exit, and their moving reloads are noticeably slower than their standing reloads, but it doesn't matter because they are moving at close to top speed.
But everyone should figure out what works best for them using their timer.

9 mm glocks don't bulge brass anymore than any other 9 mm that I have noticed.

P09 vs SP01
in CZ
My experience is that they are completely different platforms. Different grips, dufferent trigger reach, I didn't find them cross compatible. The P series grip is just to thin for my hands. I run stock rubber grips on the SP01.
-
WWB can often be to long for CZ's. Had a lot that was running around 1.160 OAL. Rounds would chamber at 1.162 but the occasional round at 1.163 would not in an SP01.

The suprise break is a technique used to mentally trick yourself out of flinching. It is of no use in practical shooting. Group shooting is challenging and rewarding but has limited application outside of bullseye other than testing equipment and identifying perfect technique. A lot of practical shooting is about establishing how far you can deviate from perfect and still get the results you desire.

Factory Zero
in CZ
My CZ was the same. My zero has the rear pretty much centered. The rear can be a little loose from CZC, I would recommend getting your zero and loctiting the rear.
-
Start with the ejector. Go to the Gen4 ejector. I played the extractor game on 2 9mm Glocks with no improvement. The ejector fixed my issues. I used 1 APEX extractor on a G19 ejecting to 2 o'clock with no change, ejector fixed that. I have owned no Glock 9mm that will reliably eject a spent case 100% without a mag in the gun if your mag springs are weak there is a small chance it could be excerbating the issue. +10% Wolf mag springs can help.

Most of the time stage plans for limited are the same as production. In limited you can shoot twice as many C's and get the same point percentage, that is the biggest difference I see.

When changing a technique at the beginning of the practice session do enough slow reps to get it ingrained at least for the session and then just go fast. Eventually it will just be how you do it all the time.
I never really got much benefit from going slow except learning how to go slow. When figuring out what to change i will do slow reps just looking at what i am doing but this is not what i would call practice.
I really only practice at two paces, comfortable match pace, and fast as ppssible.

I got the pin out. Took the safeties and grips off. With the frame flat in the block it broke loose with a few stiff strikes. I must have been hitting at a bit of an angle with the safety and grip on the gun.
-
It's not the factory trigger pin. I broke a TRS a few weeks ago on a CZ Custom SP01 Shadow. I had a replacement TRS and pin on hand and replaced both. The pin I installed had only 1 flared end, I did not stake anything. It is quite obvious which side is the non flared side and I have struck the pin fairly stoutly and the end of the pin (non flared end) is beginning to deform. I am considering drill out the flare on the other side and trying to punch it through the other way. I am waiting for CGW floating pin to come in before I give it another go. Is the pin fairly soft? Will I need a carbide bit? I could if necessary remove the flare on a mill if necessary.
-
I am hitting the non-flared end. Yes I am hitting the right way. Guess I will take safeties and grips off and get it flat on the block and beat the shit out of it.
-
Is the floating CGW pin legal for USPSA?
-
A bench block and a bigger hammer should do the trick.
I have the bench block and the starter punch, it's tight enough that the starter punch is indenting the pin, just keep wailing away or what? Don't want to destroy the frame.
-
Anybody had to drill out a trigger pin before. I broke a TRS a week ago, stock pin slid out okay, replaced it with a new pin while replacing the broken spring. Trying to get the new pin out today and it is not coming out.
Is CZ the dominate Production choice now?

I lock Glocks a lot. I shoot a CZ now and will not being going back to Glocks but the Glock is a good gun for USPSA. It is at a disadvantage in IPSC because you can't tune them vary well with that rule set. There are definitely things that were easier with the Glock and vice versa.
