  1. In all my semi auto handguns I run the heaviest recoil spring I can with the ammo I use and still get 100% reliablity.

    For my SP-01 this means a 14lb recoil spring with a 13lb hammer with a 115gr load at 135 PF. For factory CZ mag springs I could see this causing malfunctions, but no problems for me with 10% mag springs or mecgar mag springs. CZ OEM mag springs are notoriously weak.

    For my 40 TS this means a 16lb recoil spring with the factory hammer spring (20lbs ?) with a 165gr load at 175PF.

    I probably have close to 40000 rounds or more in my CZ's and have yet to break a slide stop.

    I tried the 11lb spring and couldnt tell a dimes worth of difference in the recoil impulse. Controlling recoil for me is more about my grip technique than anything else.

    Agree with this ^^^

    Shadows I run 13 and 13

    TS I run 15 and 15

    Haven't been shooting that long, but have 15,000 rounds in my Shadow and have tried the 11lb rec with 13lb main. Can't tell the difference

  2. I'm not arguing at all. I just want everyone to be on the same page, be comfortable with the ruling, and put this to bed.

    This is from Amidon:

    After discussion with the USPSA President on this issue, it was determined that there is no difference, really. Caliber could be interpreted as the width of the bullet, more so than the actual round.

    This would allow the Tanfoglio Stock III to have a slide that states 38 and a barrel of 9mm. As the rules state caliber/cartridge .38

    cal./9X19 .0354.

  3. Boss Hanger, Bladetech Black Ice Holster, Ghost mag pouches, DAA Belt

    The Boss hanger is what made this work (finally) I started using CZs about a year ago and I messed around with 4 different holsters and several self-modified hangers.

    Ben's Boss Hanger setup addresses 2 huge issues I had with pretty much all brands making CZ Holsters

    1. Allows an excellent grip on the gun while staying within the 2 inch limit.

    2. Very sturdy and stiff mount. The pistol won't bind on the draw stroke no matter how hard you jam your hand down on the pistol or how fast you are on your draw stroke.

  4. You might check. The safariland belt is a 1.75" if I'm not mistaken? I have the DAA Belt it is 1.5. I have the Boss Hanger on the DAA belt and it is a very tight and snug fit? The Safariland Belt may not fit between the fastening screws. I would email Tim from Ben's website, I'm sure he has the specs on it.

  5. As far as M&P vs CZ. Personal preference and 2 totally different guns. Some glock and M&P shooters have a hang up about the double action first shot on a da/SA platform, but you can get the trigger so smooth on a CZ etc that it's really not an issue. Lots of good shooters using striker guns, but if you dig into the results at matches you'll find larger and larger majority of the good production shooters are shooting CZ, Tanfoglio, etc.
