Looks for Range (1/11)

    Spare pins with TSO

    Any particular reason why you went back? All I can figure is it could help diagnose or clear a bad malfunction but i'm about 1500 rounds into mine and have only had minor issues that were recoil spring based or due to me letting her get too dirty. My closest range freaks out because their "go cold to check targets" rule says guns laying on the table, slides locked to the rear with chamber flag inserted. Took some explaining. I don't shoot there often because they won't let you draw and shoot form the holster either.

    Spare pins with TSO

    I was going through my TSO parts bin and found some odd pins, I realized shortly that they were an exact fit to the take-down pin/slide release. I removed the slide release for this pin to find that it frees up a lot of room for my thumb to rest on the gas peddle but it dose leave an open hole where the release interfaces with the magazine follower. Is anyone else running a pistol this way? is there any reason not to do it? My grams followers won't lock the slide open anyway without a lot of spring stretching, and I hardly ever shoot to slide lock unless something went really bad in my stage plan.

    Holster for Shadow 2

    I decided to stop doing business with him due to his hyping and overselling advertising. I stayed up late as shit for a early morning website product release just to find out he had already sold the limited quantities of his product to his favorite buddies on Facebook before actually listing any on his website. Not a good way to do business.
  4. Mine came with no spare screws; and I'm now missing one I had to go through some effort to remove that stripped screw also. I cleaned all the locktite like material out of the threads and covered my remaining screws with anti-seize lubricant. Somehow one set screw still got stuck (during the RM300) that dirty magazine became my barney and my barney (the one missing the set screw) went into my belt. While I like them ok, if you can get CZCs do so, I wish TTI would make some for it.
  5. Based on some positive reviews I installed a CGW supplied extended firing pin and reduced power FP spring. Took it to the range to practice and I had several FTF, i'm uncertain if that was related to the random (but factory TSO) recoil spring I had in. I replaced the stock FP and FP spring and replaced the recoil spring with a CGW 13lb and the problem went away. Also important to note that my firing pin block/retainer nearly fell out, the firing pin was way to the front. Factory FP stuff and the 13lb recoil had zero issues during my last match. I just swapped the stock hammer spring for an 11.5, keeping the 13lb recoil and i replaced the FP with the extended FP but did not swap the FP spring. I'm going to see if this works and since I have a much lighter main spring I may revisit the reduced power firing pin spring. Has anyone else ran into those issues? I'm just trying to learn a bit tweaking things a little at a time to get a light trigger and a flat shooting gun. Next on my list is replacing the trigger, I have the floating pin and a choice of a couple triggers to try.
  6. I have the DPM, I've ran it in two matches, but went to a 13lb CGW. I have to do some serious practice shooting recording video and tweeking springs to figure out if it makes a difference. You can tell when racking the slide but during a match I couldn't tell and honestly in my videos it looked like the gun shot flatter and had less recoil with the standard spring.
  7. Owned my RHT for about 5 minutes, the holster didn't fit well at all IMO. It was way too snug, took a to of yank to draw and I had a lot of kydex shaving off attached to any angle on the pistol. I'm still in the market for a kydex holster, I use a Double Alpha Race master but i'm very conscious of the possibility of dropping the gun.
  8. I'm short on measuring instruments, what is the factory front sight dimensions? I would like to keep the fiber size but get a thinner blade so I have more light/space between the blade and rear sight.
  9. My TSO ate the buffer in under 200 rounds also. I shot another 200 round match with a DPM buffer but I might try switching back to the stock spring and just not use a buffer I felt like the pistol had more recoil with the DPM and my videos shows significantly more muzzle flip while the original spring buffer combo was shooting crazy flat. It was warmer outside but I don't see that making such a big difference. I'm pretty sure my DPM was running the heaviest spring it came with but I may need to experiment and perhaps get a lighter load.
  10. got my call today too, pre ordered in jan Edit - Coming Thursday

    CZ Shadows 2 is coming

    Wonder how many will ship before CZC will start working on their pre-order list.
  13. Picked mine up a couple days ago, def needs a flat aluminum trigger. Should I go with CZC or CGW? have them install or DIY? Should there be any fitting involved or are they both drop in?
