    The Czechmate is discontinued after the acquisition by colt 

    If it's discontinued then let's discuss about Checkmate 3 😉

    Some information.

    Looks like the wait for a new Atlas is 8 months and growing.

    No wonder my new gun is taking so long.

     

    New prices starting Jan 1. 
     

    Ares: 6000 to 6600
    Athena: 5600 to 5900
    Artemis RDS: 6700 to 7300
    Erebus: 6800 to 7400
    Nyx RDS: 5400 to 5700
    Titan RDS: 5000 to 5700

    Is this a price list of cars or guns?🤣

    that mill is garbage.  save yer $.  any gunsmith would do that for a fraction of the cost.  also, a drill press would work just fine if you know what you are doing and square everything.

    One of the companies I worked for had one like this but a bigger model. Even with all the axes  locked it was not able to mill  a straight slot in aluminum. only in plastic. u can't call its garbage . it was super g. 🤣 

    For it to work well, you probably need to invest in it and make some changes.

    Hopefully, the new models will be better😉

    Nope. Too much snow in Canada. Texas has much nicer winter. 
     

    By charging device you mean the red thing at the top right corner of picture? 🤪

     

    Tried, still 19 rds. 

    yes.😀

    There are 3 possibilities. Either you didn't count to 20 correctly  😉or the mags  needs to be  inspected and   repaired or someone at the factory left a #20 round  under the spring.

    Check that the metal part  under the spring at the bottom of the mag  is assembled with the protruding part forward.

    Knowledgeable friends:
     

    Decide to switch to LO. I have this TS1 from my previous live in Canada. All mags are 10 rds there, sadly.

     

    I drilled out the dimples today. Seems working fine. Saved me a few hundred dollars. Happy camper here.

     

    However, these mags can hold 19 only now instead of 20. Where is the missing round? I assume follower, spring and base plate are the same?

    Staying in Canada? 😉

    Apparently the spring still didn't work until the end of the stroke. Try inserting the 20 only with a charging device

    There’s never really any info until it just happens to show up. 
    Does anybody remember hearing about a TS2 orange coming out ?

    They would be fools not to build a checkmate off of the TS2 orange platform. 
    I just have this weird feeling that the whole warranty deal might be coming to an end soon with the checkmate.
    I sure hope not, it’s just a gut feeling.  

    yes.It was an  almost exact  copy of a Tanfoglio Limited Custom. 😉

    Sometimes no plans can become plans if a company believes there to be sufficient interest.   I'd rather have a cz than a sti anyways.

     

    Fingers crossed 

    Buy a Tenfoglio Domina and put sticker on it   "Checkmate 2 " ,Because surely their new model will be similar🤣

    I'd love to try it if it didn't cost $200 lol no idea why the Eemann tech is so expensive. 

    I bought when it cost 175 euro. And they decided to send it to me by FedEx, it's another 50 euro and in the end I also paid customs, in the end everything cost me about 375 euro.🤣

    One other thing I did was to drill a hole in the front of the trigger guard to allow easy over-travel screw adjustments.  I got this idea from my Atlas gun.

    The most convenient and correct way. This is just my opinion. That's how it is on  one of my guns.

    I saw an AD in person this weekend at a local match. Shooter was at the line making ready. Had the slide locked back inserted a magazine, let the slide go forward and bang! AD.
    RO was standing right there looking at his gun and said he clearly saw his finger never went near the trigger. DQ’d shooter went home. 
    Glad I sold my 320s, but I still edc a 365 Macro. Think I will add a safety before I appendix carry though.

    Unjust decision. The gun should have received a DQ, not the  shooter.😉

    The difference is most probably due to the friction between the top of the barrel chamber and the underside of the slide. Test it using a full slide stoke or dummy rounds and I think you will find that all is good.

    If you stood on your head and tried it then everything would work fine.😉

    There is a noticeable difference... depending on your skill level.  Is it worth it?  That's up to you.

     

    They do break occasionally, which steel FLGRs very rarely do.

     

    I made some rods like this in 1992  for tanfoglio and for 1911 and I still use them .

    Identical rods, which were assembled in the factory that manufactures them, broke at everyone who bought them. I think they should be assembled correctly.

    Shooting with a tungsten rod is noticeable in every gun I've used
