ntphd Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I wanted to thank all of you for the great information, and for answering my annoying questions about CZ triggers, etc. After selling my Glock set-up more quickly and easily than I thought, I was able to purchase a Shadow from CZ Custom this week. Only had a chance to put a few rounds through it today, but I'm really happy with it. Burningsquirrels, a "welcome to the dark side" of Prod would not go unnoticed or unappreciated. I can't resist asking a couple more annoying questions, though. The SA pull on the gun is amazing, but the DA is a little heavier than I recall (from putting a few rounds through one at a match last month). Does the DA lighten up / smooth out a little with use? Also, is there a "break in" period with Shadows? Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eerw Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) it wil smooth out to some degree, or change out the mainspring with a lighter one. I am guessing you are running about 7.75# on the DA and about 3.75# on the SA . OH..and welcome to the CZ addiction. There is never just one.

burningsquirrels Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 "Welcome to the BRIGHT side of Production Division!!" Both the SA and DA pulls will get smoother with use. The only thing I do is put in a 10 lb recoil spring and 13 lb hammer spring into any CZ. However, I haven't bought or handled a brand new one, only used ones. I am shooting a box-stock SP-01 non-shadow with just those two springs changed and different sights, it shoots great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbarker13 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I currently have two shadows from CZ Custom. One is almost brand new, with about 200 rounds through it. The other is about 5 months old, and just passed the 4,000-round mark. I would say the one that is more used is noticeably smoother in double action.

Billmanweh Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I took mine to the range for the first time as well. I think it's got the best SA trigger I've ever felt, and it's a tackdriver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
