  1. I shoot Uspsa,scsa, skeet, trap, long range. Been using various passive in ear and electronic muffs and recently got fitted for Soundgear Phantom at local hearing aid store. 
    I can’t imagine going back to anything else other than for quick casual use after using these last few matches. Rechargeable with long lasting batteries, Bluetooth, full function control from your smart phone, excellent sound profiles and noise suppression. And comfortable to wear all day. 
    Not cheap but I look at the multiple number of electronic muffs I have and Ive already spent that type of money on less than ideal HP. Best decision I’ve made for HP

  2. Toss slide and 10x bushing in freezer for about 20 min. 
    Remove pin. 
    Insert deep socket into slide against bushing that fits just right. 
    Use soft jaw vise and tilt slide slightly in vise jaws so one corner is on end of socket and  other on front of slide just below bushing. Tighten down vise jaws and press busing right out super easy.

    Thumb pressure to install 10x. Reinstall pin. 
    22 min total. 

  3. My XDm 4.5 and 5.25 and 4.5 OSP noticeably more accurate with .356 147 FP from SNS or Gallant plus cheaper than MG. 
    1.135 OAL. I’m running CFE powder 4.0 grains for 930fps out of the 5.25. 
    TG was too smokey and accuracy wasn’t as tight compared to CFE for me. 
    NV 320 was nice compromise but price deal I got on CFE was hard to beat. Plus it cleans up much easier. 

  4. Peltor Tactical 500 with gunfighters gel cups. 26 db protection and very good electronics for talking plus Bluetooth. 
    very comfortable. Bulkier than sordins but my ears are protected and no ringing end of day without having to double up like with sordins. Peltors  also great indoors 

  5. If you want the trigger to break as far forward as possible you don’t want the RRK kit. Unless you want the flat trigger than you’ll need RRK kit to have correct operation of trigger swing. . But the end result will be same as stock. 
    I’d recommend taking measurements of your pistol and compare to both mine before and after. 
    Each has full trigger kit with RRK kit.

  6. If you want the trigger moved back so it is easier to reach,  IE shorter in DA and SA then the Reach Reduction Kit is your answer. And the flat trigger has to be used with the RRK. However because the face is flat compared to curved you end up with face of trigger same distance as stock curve rd trigger face. So it’s a wash. 
    mod you want the trigger to break earlier and reset quicker then the trigger kit and RRK with fitted disconnector will help that with either trigger.

    Where are you guys purchasing the czc flat trigger I actually really like the idea of the trigger breaking a couple of mm earlier that’s always been my one pet peeve of my p01 and now my new s2 

     

  7. I played with mine also like that for a bit just to try it just because that was my first and only “competition” pistol and was shooting limited major to start. Wanted to try production and figured why not load it down. 
    180s at around 730 fps. 
    Cycled fine with both 14-16lb recoil spring  but ran 16lb mostly for quicker slide back on target. Fun experiment and if the 5.25 40 was my only gun I’d recommend doing it as you could go from production minor bunny fart loads and right back  to limited Major with ease.

    One of the things that led me to sell a shadow 2 was that I couldn't get the SA position to be a little more forward like on my SP01 Shadows, even with an 85C trigger.  it's weird that the S2 shares so many components with the older Shadow, but the overall sweep/travel of the trigger seems longer....both farther out in DA and farther back in SA.

     

    I can definitely see how this new trigger brings the face farther out in SA, but it also obviously increases reach for DA.

    That has been my only complaint with S2 was how far back full pull was. 2mm doesn’t seem like much but when your finger is past 90 at least for me I don’t care for it.

    I still may order one and give it a whirl for the S2.  Just something about if it works for me or not!

    Same here. After shooting brothers Sig X5 I really liked the flat trigger. Small investment honestly to see if I like it or not on my competition and carry gun. 
    So far with dry fire I like it.

    Nice job!! 

     

    Those straight trigger numbers won't work for me.  The curved 85 trigger will work and stay in my CZ CTS and S2.  5mm difference is a lot.  

    And that’s why I posted the numbers so others can compare their specs and know what to expect. Anyone using same kit should be very similar. 
    Hoping it helps others make an informed  decision. 
    For me as much as I like the RRK position in DA I wasn’t happy with the SA position on S2 compared to my P01 SA position. 
    Now I have the correct S2 SA position and basically  back to stock on DA. Considering I spend way more time in SA that’s more important. Already dry fired about 400 times tonight and it’s very comfortable pull. 

  11. In anticipation of CZC new flat trigger, I decided to spec out measurements on my S2 and P01 until they arrived. 
    Both have full CGW trigger kits with RRK and trigger  set screws set with a hair of pre and overtravel. 
    Put a mark on back of frame and  one on trigger shoe, parallel with slide so I can be as accurate as possible for distance from front of trigger face to back of frame. 
    Measured Distance from DA position, SA position, fired position, and distance where trigger resets. 
    Definite difference in S2 with the addition of sear with the fitted disconnector. Less overtravel and quicker reset by half. I purposely gave more room on S2 reset for gunk and grime build up instead of keeping it at the 1mm range and that’s also where like to run my 1911s. 
    2-7-2020. Flat trigger installed in S2 for now. Took about 4 min to swap in. 
    No need for trigger set screws as it’s machined spot on for overtravel and sits less than half a millimeter of pre-travel take up in DA. 
    As I suspected the flat face by its nature moves the contact point  measurements forward appx 4.6mm so basically back to before the RRK kit. 
    Going to dry fire tonight and run a few hundred rounds through it tomorrow first before considering doing P01. 
    I do like that the trigger in SA is farther forward 4.9mm again like stock location as it’s better angle for my finger and the flat face feels good. Almost spot on measurements to my 1911s. 
    2-8-2020. After dry  firing a lot  last night I decided i like it.  Dropped trigger in P01 and the measurements changed same amount as on S2. Couple differences in length of pulls by a couple mm and reset was 3.9mm and is now 3.2mm. Pretty sure its just due to less articulation in travel based off face of trigger.

    You are correct that the installation requires milling, but since the Accu-bushing is on a Production legal gun (Accushadow) you can legally install it (which requires milling). That does clash with the "no milling" rule, but one of the two has to be ignored in this case, either you can use aftermarket bushings and any parts from another production legal gun, or you can't. Since the part in question is a bushing, which is explicitly called out, NROI says installing the Accu-bushing on another pistol is legal. 

     

    2000 Accushadow 2s have not been sold yet AFAIK, which is why it is not on the Production list. 

    Sorry. No milling allowed. Just because it is a legal part on one gun doesn’t mean it will be legal on another due to milling being required to fit the part. It is not an interchangeable part.  Milling is Expressly prohibited. 

  13. most accurate loads  in this order...

    1-SNS 147 fp, Gallant 147 fp  both .356 dia
    1.135 OAL. 4.0 CFE. CCI 500 -930 fps .

    2-Xtreme 147rn .356 dia 1.140 OAL 3.9 CFE-930 fps
    3-Xtreme 124 rn, 1.15 OAL. 4.8CFE @1130fps. 

    Blue 147fp .355 dia 1.105 OAL 3.8 CFE 920fps. 
    Tested in  XDm 5.25” and 4.5”( minus appx 20fps) as well as Shadow 2 and brothers Sig P320 X5. 
     

  14. Benefit is for us with shorter fingers getting the tip of finger right where it needs to be on initial contact. 
    best thing I did for me. Now I’m interested in the flat trigger from CZC combined with RRK. 
    never been a fan of hooked triggers

    Lol. You ain’t kidding!!! 🙄🤣

    The rules for production clearly state no milling of slide except for sights. 
    The acubishing is 1911 style and requires milling therefore not legal.
