    CZ Shadow 2 Orange Upgrades

    Someone recommended using the extended firing pin with the 8.5# hammer spring.  So, that's what I've done in every case.  I have that combination in four firearms and haven't had any issues so far.  Knock on wood and keep my fingers crossed.

     

    Sorry, finger bounce caused double post.

    and is it working with all primers or only federals? 8,5 is really low

    Shot a Phoenix Redback in Poland, absolutely loved it.

    Further DA bit hard but will improve as I found in Poland with standard gun. SA amazing. Love this gun, wonder about the pre-travel issue,,, hope someone can help TNX!

    JP-5 reviews/input

    Hoping for more reviews, there is one in recoil magazine but quite 'generic' I would like to know:

     

    - is it really faster / better then a tuned (blitz etc.) JP15GMR?

    - How does it compare to a MPX?

    - can we shoot factory 9mm ammo?

     

    We can order now in Europe but it is so expensive I like to now before I buy 🙂

    Shadow 2 Optics Ready Variant

    I have an opportunity to buy one of the optics ready variants where the plate system comes from the factory. I know the czc plates system has had some issues with the plates staying put. Does anyone have any experience with the factory plate system?

    they are fine, use loctite!

    Not to heat the discussion but in Europe no gun dealer wants to trade in a .40.... they also don't stock .40's anymore. Mostly old people shoot .40 in standard (IPSC). It is dying. If we are smart we should make new and understandable classes. What is production with all that is allowed now (Alien etc), why not make one big 9mm class? Or just stop major scoring so that people who really want to shoot .40 still can shoot it? Many small classes confuse all and is not good for the sport. I would make few (and bigger) classes:

    - Standard (all 9mm guns) current standard (limited) rules only 9mm or minor only

    - Optics (all guns only minor)

    - PCC

    - Revolver until they die..

    Ok, don't shoot the messenger... 🙂

    I have shot extremely low and very high power factor ammo. It does not make much of a difference. The perceived recoil and dot movement vary far less in the JP-5 going from "hot" to "light" ammo compared to blowback PCC's. 

    tnx just what I wanted to hear!!

    In Europe .40 is dying (fast). Same problem with open. Market for 9mm much bigger. People want to shoot 9's and 9's with dots. And PCC's since they are so much fun to shoot. Probably 'standard' class goes to 9mm in the near future?

    Every single shooter that has fired my JP-5 has immediately understood the difference. There is no comparison between the JP-5 and any blowback PCC. It's exactly like an MP-5 but with the better AR ergonomics. Compared to the MP-5 it's easier to reload, better ambi controls, easier to adjust LOP and there's all kinds of aftermarket for AR pattern rifles. 

    I ordered a 2nd. It's that good. 

    Your post makes me happy. Mine arrives December in Europe. Can you shoot (hot) factory ammo with it (like the MPX) or do you need 130PF ammo like a straight blowback likes it??

    I run a Brekkecustom 16 inch barrel of which 4 inches is compensator and get an average velocity of 1175 with Berry 115 for a power factor of 135 with 3.9 grains of Clean Shot.

    Maybe the barrel of a JP15 is very slow? I need 4,4 to come close to 130... (Lovex D032 which is the same as cleanshot)

    I'll have to check when I get home. I was set up for 135 gr bullets making 135 PF out of a CZ. I didn't really change much just switched the bullet, this is in a 13" barrel. I'd guess it's like 3.8 but I can't remember. 

    then for sure you have to chrono 🙂 guess you are at 123 PF or so now

    Stopped at the range last night to test a new load. I've been shooting my CO load of 135 gr TC bullets about about 140 PF. Once these are gone I planned to switch to something more PCC specific. This target is 115 gr RN at 132 PF everything else the same as my last test. I immediately noticed the first round chambered smoother, so I'm hoping these round nose bullets will be more reliable. Not that I'm having any real reliability issues at this point. I'll probably use this gun in some IDPA matches so I'll need to bump the PF up closer to 140. (IDPA PCC needs 135 PF)

     

    Anyway this is the target from today. Again it's doubles at 20 yards, I think the splits were about 16-17 but my timer was acting funny. This seems like a pretty solid result.
