CZ must have used my long lost twin as the hand model to design their guns. The controls fit my hand size and finger lengths perfectly. I've shot plenty of 2011's and just never liked them very much. I have a TSO that I have put 40K+ rounds through and bought a CM last fall. I have them set up as identical as possible and can move between each painlessly. The CM has certainly taken more effort to make reliable than the TSO but that mainly revolved around the ammunition. Mag tuning was fairly simple and the instructions can be found in the CZ tech forum.

My TSO and CM both had magwells like the TS2 in this thread. It took very little effort to blend the frames to the magwell.

It's just a product line refresh to bring the TS in line with the flagship S2 product line. The only real change is aesthetics and naming conventions for the variations in the product line. If you're a TSO buyer then the standard TS2 isn't for you.

Did you try shock buffs or goose oil? Let us know.

Don't tell anyone, it is a well guarded secret...CZ introduced models with firing pin safeties. There isn't a single Shadow or Shadow 2 that is drop safe, extended firing pin or otherwise.

That is a bolt over base failure and generally indicates the cartridge stack isn't being pushed up. I had to shorten my grams followers before they would slide through the magazine without binding. Disassemble the magazine and make sure there is clearance between the follower and the front/back of the mag.

I wen through this with a SP01. Without the disconnector the pistol relies on the setscrew of the trigger to set pretravel. For whatever reason, the setscrew doesn't do a very good job and I had to add in more pretravel than the SA had prior to the new trigger. When you leave in the disconnector, the SA works the way it did before changing the trigger. This is especially important if you have a model with a firing pin safety. I have both the CZ factory pre B disconnector and a hand fit CGW disconnector. FWIW, the custom CZ builders normally leave the disconnectors in the SAO CZ75s.

No, it's like leaving the correct parts in the gun so the trigger feels good and functions correctly. The disconnector controls pretravel without relying on set screws.

I just got shipping notice mine is on the way.

Don't remove the disconnector, just install a TS/CM trigger and leave everything else alone. https://www.armorycraft.com/shop?Collection=CZ+SAO+Adjustable+Triggers

The 9mm extractor is different than the 40 extractor. However, you're converting a 40 to 9mm and the entire slide is different. I've have no problems with 9mm extraction with a 40 extractor. I wouldn't change out the extractor unless I absolutely had to.

What he said.

It only looks like aesthetic changes to me. The current TSO comes with all of the features the TS2 Green is shown with on CZ's site.

Did someone say they wanted another TS holster?

There's a whole host of pistols that are intended for competition only that aren't drop safe. All Shadow model, all TS/CM, and all combinations of parts using the slides from those models. This isn't some new revelation, CZ introduced the B models for a reason. Sh!t happens, the shooting sports have some risk. If you don't want to be the person having ND's maybe practice more. The vast majority of safety infractions I see come from people who's only practice is at matches when they're trying to perform well beyond their current level of skill. It would be interesting to know the experience of the people in this thread wringing their hands about dope safeties, I suspect these two groups overlap.

I dryfired for two hours last night.

C class REEEEEEEEEEEE!

Follow up: I adjusted four standard mags and a big stick, all with CZC internals, to the dimensions provided by George. They feed 124gr HP loaded to 1.130. The barrel's throat is too short for 1.150 but I'm certain it would feed too. I'll run these mags for a while and see if they change at all.

I converted my 40 TSO to 9mm with just a barrel and mags. It works but with unmodified 9mm CM/TS magazines it is sensitive to ammunition length and bullet type. Factory fmj runs 100%.

Do you mean trolling? He's been posting the same tired stories for years.

Cartridge overall length? My TSO and CM dislike longer 9mm cartridges with unmodified magazines. The feeding problem is less pronounced when the magazine isn't loaded to capacity. Unless you lubricated the pistol with heavy grease I don't think oil will slow slide velocity enough at 40 degrees F to alone cause feedway stoppages.

Bending the springs shouldn't be that difficult. Just bend the top loop radially to the wire. Frankly, the Grams kits kind of suck too.

Here is someone that doesn't know the difference between CZC and CZ.

Two years ago I left a review on CZC's site mentioning the springs need bending to work and they never put the review up. They probably just overlooked it. lol.

CZC refuses to tell customers up front they have to modify the springs to work in TS 40 mags. The springs are designed to "work" in ALL CZ75 and require some modification to work in TS/CM mags. Take the top loop of the spring and bend it to one side until the follower stops sticking out.
