Higgins Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I am thinking of getting a 75 shadow for SSP and was wondering if anyone knew the weight w/empty mag. I had an SP01 and had a lot of issues making weight without making alot of less than optimal choices. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWFAN Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 (edited) My 75 Shadow makes it just fine with a regular SP-01 mag and aluminum grips. Lots of guys using them for SSP. Edited January 21, 2012 by DWFAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neomet Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Yep. Makes weight no problem. According to CZ Custom web site with an empty mag it is 39oz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ck1 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Yeah, they make it under 39ozs, not lots to spare though... Depending on which mags and/or grips you choose you can easily push the fixed-rear version over, different combos add up differently that close to 39ozs, so keep that in-mind. For instance, VZ grips or the factory plastic grips and the factory 19rd mags will make it, VZ's and the 16rd Mec-Gar's w/ the $9 rubber base pads are scary close, the 17rd Mec-Gar AFC mags (one of the lightest mag choices) with the factory rubber grips (which are kind of heavy) may or may not depending on the particular gun, etc... FWIW, the adjustable-rear "T" version is lighter and leaves a lot more room... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it has an LPA sight then the sight is cutinto the slide loosing a good bit of material. This may account for the lighter between the two.
