I shoot the gun in the stock configuration and do not see any need for changes/upgrades. That constant tinkering seems like a favourite American pastime to me - no offense.
As far as tested loads go, I have shot various factory loads through it (CCI, Fiocchi, S&B, Magtech, Federal, ... 115, 124, 147 grain bullets... FMJ, JHP, etc) and it ran without a single hiccup.
DA is indeed extremely heavy, but SA is incredibly crisp (better than a CZ Shadow 2 I'd say)... almost no takeup, very clear wall, crisp break and extremely short reset. Biggest advantage over the S2: after the reset, the trigger is directly at the wall again, while the S2 has some takeup even after firing a shot and resetting the trigger.

Can you give us a little review on the trigger?
Will do as soon as I get around to installing it. May take a while though.

Hello,
just got my Rex Alpha this week. I'm really excited to go and shoot it.
I have noticed two things: 1) on the barrel locking block (right side, where the serial number is) there are some deep tooling marks and 2) the slide has a little bit of play on the rails (light rattle when you move the gun around quickly, e.g. during target transitions). Can anyone confirm this?
Also, I have ordered some magazines and the sports trigger - shipped this week, let's see how long the parcel takes to arrive in Austria (neighboring country to Slovenia).

Finally got around to installing the trigger together with the light hammer spring and fired 300 rounds through the gun.
The sport trigger is a little wider than the factory trigger and is curved in a different way, essentially increasing trigger reach (didn't measure by how much). The surface feels smooth and personally I quite like the increased trigger reach and wider trigger.
The light hammer spring made the DA trigger pull much nicer than before, almost like a CZ Shadow 2 minus the take-up. Nonetheless, the DA trigger pull remains gritty. SA wasn't influenced much, except maybe for the wall being a little less defined.
