[Is lack of ammo starting to hurt participation?]

I wonder what will be posted in the classifieds soon

[Setting up belt for first timer]

CO and production are the same.  

[CZ Multi Optic cut slide - question]

Prior to their RDS system, I believe they did a direct multi cut option. I don’t think that works with the plates 

[CZ S2 trigger job]

You can't go wrong with CZ Custom or Cajun. They both do amazing work and will return a reliable trigger.

 

I've read mixed reviews of the MCarbo kit, but haven't seen one in person, so it's all just internet comments.

 

Also there is CJ Maven who does incredible work tuning these guns.

 

I've had guns done by CJ, CZC, and CGW.  All have been great and reliable.

[Resale value once milled]

Yes it will impact resale value.  How much is the question... in a gun shop it wouldn’t have been good to begin with so that’s not a real concern.  On a competition forum, then you’ll need to find someone who wants to run an optic.

[Sous Vide cooking]

I’ve done my long cooks in an igloo cooler.  Works great 

[Which frame style to you prefer for Bull Shadow slide?]

9 hours ago, Red_Dot said:

I own both a Shadow 2 Bull and a standard Bull Shadow. I think the short dust cover pulls the weight balances back to your hand so it is a bit easier to control. Muzzle flip is essentially the same in my experience but the sights seem to return more consistently with the SA frame. Granted, some of this might be due to backstrap profile differences also

any interest in selling the Shadow 2 Bull?

[Which frame style to you prefer for Bull Shadow slide?]

I really want a Bull Shadow 2

[Sailer leaving Infinity?]

I’m sure they both have their reasons and it’s their business.  From what I’ve seen Christian has been a very good representative of the sport.  I wish him the best of luck.

[Sous Vide cooking]

I have an Anova as well.  Works great for Chicken.  It works well for steak too, but I've never really had a problem cooking steak how I like it.

 

I've done ribs for 48 hours too and it works great.  You really can't go wrong it really is set it and forget it.

 

For the long cooks, I'll use an older igloo cooler.

 

I also bought a torch to finish things off after wards.

[Cz shadow 2- which grips- vz,lok, henning,or?]

Hennings go on all my CZs

[Buying from Optics Planet?]

Years ago, they were fine.  If it showed as in stock, it would ship within a week and you'd get it in decent time.  Amazon has definitely changed our expectation on shipping/receiving though.

 

Now, even if it shows as in stock, they still don't usually ship for weeks.  I won't order from them anymore.  I suppose, if you really don't care about when it comes in, then it's ok.  They are a reputable site, but definitely use their logistics algorithms to minimize their costs for shipping and distribution, and that results in slow shipping.

[CZ TS 2]

Looks like a stretched S2 to me. I like the looks of the TSO better still.

[What does it take to change an Shadow 2 OR into an orange level gun?]

Send the S2 Optics Ready to CZ Custom and it will come back as close to an orange as you can get... and in some aspects even better.

[What does it take to change an Shadow 2 OR into an orange level gun?]

You could go with CGW 10x bushing, but it’s not as tight as the accu bushing. 

[What does it take to change an Shadow 2 OR into an orange level gun?]

CZ Custom can install their accusbushing and also do the trigger work.  I think the accubushing is $350.  Trigger work is a couple hundred 

 

 

 

[I wish I could find something to replace competitive shooting in my life.]

PRS sounds like it would work for you and your location.  

What about RC boats or planes?

 

 

[Gun bag for Open pistols?]

If you have a job lots or dollar store type place, check out their section for electronics.  Sometimes you can find cheap sleeves for laptop computers that work perfectly for just a few bucks.

[Electronic ear muff recommendation]

The MSA Sordins and Pro Ears Gold will do what you want.  They don't cut in and out like lower end ones do.

 

For me, the Pro Ears Gold are better at noise cancellation without any added hiss.  However, the build quality of the headband is lacking.  Since it's all plastic.

 

The MSA Sordins feel more sturdy and collapse down smaller.  But the original foam ear cups need improvement, so most people pay extra to get the gel cups.  I get a hiss in all of mine when I turn up the volume.

 

[RO Fatally Shot]

Terrible news all around.  I can’t imagine how the families of both sides feel right now

[Shadow 2 Production base pads Patriot Defense]

I have them and ran them last year without any problems with over insertion.

[What Torque for Mounting Red Dot to CZC RDS Adapter Plate?]

I've done my vortex to 12 in/lbs.

[CZ TSO 40 to 9mm Caliber Conversion?]

I picked up a used .40 TS slide that mated right up to my TSO 9mm.  No fitting required.  I have heard that some require slight fitting, but any smith could handle it for around $100.

 

Keep an eye on the classifieds here.  I've found more parts here vs Ken's.

[AMG Labs Timers]

I ordered mine in June and got it mid September.  He didn’t reply to my first emails, but eventually, I got an update that it was shipping. 

[Recent bullet orders]

Got my Missouri order this week.  9 weeks
