Never had a firing pin break and I don't remember any competition shooter on my squad shooting a CZ having one break. It could have happened. I use a Cajun extended firing pin and roll pin installed with the "groove" in the pin in the 12 o'clock position. Once in a while I remember to install a snap cap for dry firing but mostly I don't, I think you just got unlucky.
As HT suggested could it be a broken retaining pin?
If it is broken and you used the Cajun pin..."Life Time Warranty only when used with CGW 61100 firing pin retaining pin." from Cajun website for 61050 EFP.

A-01 can use either mags but with different grips. 75 mags a slightly narrower and the 75 grips have extra material.

I am Brain Dead, I figured it out!
Been there, done that.
Could you give a report on these extensions please.

I have Lok grips on mine and, as I have a large number of 75B mags, I had them make the grips so I could use them in my A-01.

Slide Stops
in CZ
Interesting because CZ Custom shows different part numbers for Shadow 2 (#10106) and TS slide stops (#10004).

If you get one please report back.

CZ Custom is an option but they are probably as backed up as Cajun.

Been shooting competition for a couple of years and never had one break....I do carry a spare.

Front Sights
in CZ
For action shooting most (but not all) prefer a thinner front sight the reason given is faster sighting of "good enough" sight picture. YMMV
Try it and see if it works for you. I just changed my front sight on my S2O to a thinner sight but have not had a chance to shoot it in competition.

Scroll down and there is an excellent close-up view of the action, it may help.

Lyman tumbler...SS pins, dishwasher liquid (with citrus) and HOT water. I no longer use Lemishine, I just make sure dishwasher detergent has "citrus" in it.

Most semi-auto pistols like .356 coated or plated but you need to try different sizes in your firearms. These are much softer than jacketed.
Most will want .355 in jacketed. YMMV
Some bullet manufacturers offer sample packages so you can try different configurations before committing to a large order.

Rather than shooting classifiers i would set up stages for dry firing where you have to challenge your transitions, reloading, and moving around barricades. That changed the way I set up my magazines on my belt. For the holster, I never went wrong with the rules set for production and SS (behind the hip bone)
FYI...Behind the hip bone requirement has been removed from USPSA.

I ordered mine direct from Mec Gar, they said they are slightly different. I believe there is a taper to get around past the Dimple that limits the mag to 10 rounds.

If you don't want to screw the die back in and then re-tighten the set screw try putting a rag over the bushing, this will help prevent scratches on the press or bushing.
-
Also check the adjustment of your sizing die. I switched to a Lee u-die, there are numerous post on the why's of the U-die.

FYI from the LabRadar site.
" It must be 32GB or less, SD or SDHC. Micro USB cards are not recommended. Do a FULL Format of the SD card using FAT 32 and try the card again."
You may have already tried this but just in case.

Stats from a recent match.
C.O. 28
PCC 13
Prod 13
Limited 12
Open 8
SS 8
CO is the biggest but still good numbers for the rest, except for Revolver.

I download mine to Excel and then add all the info about load, etc.
Yes, yes I know not as convenient as an app on your phone but I have records going back several years so for me I would always want to download .

Not had an issue on two different Samsung phones.

ANy final thoughts on the A01 vs. TSO debate? I've read that the A01 is not as reliable...how is the recoil impulse and accuracy feel between the two?
Just got my A-01 and for the first 200 rounds I have had 1 FTE in about the first 20 rounds. Installed a 13# main spring and no problem with fiocchi factory ammo. Next going to try a 8.5# hammer spring with ext. FP. I really like it SO FAR...YMMV
-
A-01 is made by CZ Custom, it shares some parts with the CZ 75 series but has several differences. The most notable is the sear cage is not removable. Search around and you will find some comparisons online.

Extended firing pin broke
in CZ

Yes and if you replace it with the Cajun roll pin AND install it correctly the problem goes away. YMMV
