    Another thing I am now considering is the factory shock buff. With it in, the breech face opens juuuuust enough for a case to eject. Possibly removing that will help too

    With the thicker 3,5mm buffer the stroke is the same as the old SP-01 Shadows without any buffer. But it can effect extraction.

    recoil looks nice, wonder how much difference there is shooting with comp or without with the minor load.

     

    There is for sure a difference but I assume most of it is because of the added weight of the steel comp and cone thread adapter.

    That brass...perfect.  I hope it does that with major.  You can use any dot mount you want!

     

    I hope so too, let's see how it goes. The test firing was with random mixed brass.

     

    I plan on using the sebo weapons rearwards mounted sight mount.

  4. My first test of the gun after being modified. This is with minor PF N320 loads I had laying around.

     

    This is also the first live fire test with the base pad prototype.

     

    Ignore my sloppy recoil control, first time shooting in almost 6 months.

     

     

    Next up load development and testing spring combos.

    Have you had a chance to test this out yet?

     

    Now I've shot 3 full mags without any issues so far. Will be doing some minor tweaks to further improve the next test version.

    That gun is so new I doubt there will be any information about it running in open. Like you said, not even in the US yet. If it holds up in 9 major, my next questions would be how many rounds would a 170mm hold, and who will be making those mags?

     

    170mm mags can be done with a properly designed basepad. I am working on one for the CZ "small frame" guns.

     

  7. While my Shadow Open gun project is progressing too slow I had to kill some time by designing and source manufacturing for IPSC 170mm legal base pads for the SP-01 18 round tube. First prototype looking promising..

     

     

  8. Any CZ series trigger can be installed, I assume you want to preserve the DA function so that limits you to all the different DA/SA triggers. Personally I use a old style SP-01 Shadow trigger in the Shadow 2 that moves the trigger face a couple of mm closer.

    Just a word of warning, I'm looking at the shape of them at the bottom and I think you could get in trouble for having grips that form a makeshift magwell, which would be illegal in production and CO.

     Those don't extend or "flare" any more than the original rubber grips! You can see that they are flush with the bottom of the frame..

  10. I have had a struggle since last years August until half way through this years shooting season after switching from the old SP-01 Shadow to the new Shadow 2. Now roughly 10k rounds later with the Shadow 2 I am prefferring that to the old one. But it sure took some time getting used to the different balance, different behavious in terms of seing the sights lifting and tracking them, the way I was pushing the gun around instead of letting it do some of the work etc.............. difference in the different guns do take considerable time to get  used to because you have to retraing you visual perception and patience and also your muscle memory and so on...

    If you don't cut the frame you'll need to cut notches out of the sides of the comp so it doesn't hit the frame when it cycles (the barrel moves ~1/4" towards the frame when it unlocks).

     

    Yes I've also come to that conclusion when doing some measurements. Let's see how it turns out once I actually start cutting and milling. Plans can always change if some better solution comes along during the process.

  12. I got so inspired that I had to start a project of my own.

    I am going to build a Open major 9mm CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow gun from the following parts. Let's see how it turns out, there are some challenges since I plan to keep the serial numbers untouched and a original length barrel.

     

    • Seboweapons C-more rts 2 back shifted mount with tumbrest
    • Seboweapons racker
    • McLearn Custom guns 13-5 comp (bought used on BE forums)
    • Czechmate reverse plug & recoil spring rod
    • Delta optical mini dot HD26 red dot
    • Make a custom cone and thread adapter from M14x1 to 11/16×40 thread
    • Make a spacer between the frame and the mount so that it is centered on the gun
    • Cut a slot for the racker

     

     

    What do you guys think should the red dot mount be tilted by let's say 1 degree in order to have enough elevation adjustment?

    Next will be to find a good machinist..

    maybe from this reason ?😀

     

    Yes, I've also seen the certification. Most probably is that one of the reasons. Overall I've ordered stuff several times from him and it has alwasy been excellent service.

  14. Just for information to you guys. I just emailed and had Bosko at Luckydelta.com to source and send me a Czechmate reverse plug and recoil guide/spring assembly. Apparently he's got good contacts at the CZ factory.

  15. I've shot about 5k with the thick buffer and 10lbs recoil and 9lbs hammer spring. Buffer still going strong. I have made tests with buffer and without. On the S2 i prefer the buffer. The SP-01 Shadow i prefer without any buffer. Note that the slide travel is longer (stroked) on the S2 so CZ actual made room for the thick buffer from the factory. Don't just take anyones word for it.. go out and test which one you prefer compare with focus on the vision, the timer and hits on the target! On the old shadow i run a 9lbs recoil and a 13lbs hammer spring. There is a weight difference between the slides and stroke depending on setup and all this effects the behaviour. But the biggest difference will be your grip and recoil control and load.
