  1. Thanks, Rowdy. Looking forward to your feedback on it.
  2. The palm swells are definitely not thicker than scales. And all 3 sets of my scales don't fit the s2. The screw location is off just far enough where they can't even be fit
  3. Thick compared to the factory ones? Sure. I'm waiting for something like the SSI scales.
  4. Based on his/her other posts, I'm going to venture a guess that English is not their first language. I think NathanB covered the meaning of the OP
  5. The more time I spend with mine, the less I feel compelled to change anything. I switched springs right away, have a thinner front sight on the way, and will add thick grips once they become available. I may throw in an 85 trigger from my old Shadows to reduce the DA throw slightly, but that's it. I've been spoiled by my Automatic Accuracy shadows, but this thing is ready to rumble out of the box.
  6. Glock is the only one of the trio I'd even consider. If ordering off the menu is an option, I'd go with the PPQ for a polymer, striker gun.
  7. I don't think any gun will cause better scores over any reasonable gun. However, if it inspires you to practice more, then absolutely. My scores went way up when I switched from an M&P to a Shadow, but that was only because I enjoy shooting it so much that it encourages me to use it every single day.
  8. Gear won't make it go away. Practice with what you have.

    Green basepads

    Get the raw aluminum ones from Springer and have them anodized.
  10. Good to know. I hope you report back with your final choice. I'm currently having the same internal conflict.
  11. Out of curiosity, did you go .100 or .090?
  12. Agreed on both lol. I think JHicks was spot on with his .240 height.
  13. Dawson and CZ give their heights in the context of different dimensions, fyi.
  14. 2 random questions in case anybody has already added these: 1. Dawson front sight: which height would be appropriate? .240? 2. I know old SP01 grips fit. However, I know the SSI scales have such tight tolerances that i'm wondering if they fit the new frame?
  15. SP01 sounds like the logical choice.

  17. Put in a good word at VZ to do their wide grips in the scale shape please. I'd prefer to have the best of both worlds, and I can't stand the palm swells.
  18. I haven't tried the Bogies, but my old VZ grips were the most aggressive I've tried. (I currently use SSI scales)
  19. I'm currently planning on only switching hammer and recoil springs, and grips. Potential candidates to follow: lightened FP / spring and Short Reach Kit Possible, but unlikely further: Cajun bushing and competition hammer.
  20. I don't think it will have the physical training effect you're looking for. However, cheaper bullets are good for increased practice. I know a lot of Production shooters do 124g for practice and 147 for matches. I've switched to only 147s for logistical reasons.

    CZ Shadows 2 is coming

    It sounds like most people on the pre-order list just got their shipping notification yesterday, so I'm willing to bet none are in hand yet.
  22. Perhaps my search-fu is not that strong this morning, so my apologies if this is covered already. My main practice gun (~80k live fire) is a worked-over SP01 Shadow. I noticed in dry-fire recently that if the hammer is back with the safety on, I "press" the trigger, and then disengage the safety... the hammer falls to half-cock. Which part(s) is/are the culprit? I'd prefer to fix it now as a non-issue before it becomes a potential disaster. Worn out hammer? Sear?
  23. As a non-Tanfo owner, I would like to think I have an unbiased opinion... but who knows. Anyways, I think the S2 shoots flatter. The S3 is simply too front-heavy, IMO, which causes erratic muzzle movement in comparison to the 2. YMMV.
