cyburg Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) Just placed my order, thats the good part. Bad part I am looking at 6 weeks because they are waiting to get some guns in... Me so excited I have been shooting open for the past year or so. After playing with the CZ SP-01 Shadow at the Florida Open I decided I have to have one of these and Will shoot Production this year...

cyburg Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share Posted March 18, 2012 I just received my magazines from gregcotellc.com. I picked up 4 of them at $20 each. The problem is that they look lonely without a gun to get it on with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hiker88 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 looking for a Shadow myself and no one seems to have them in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latech15 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I got lucky. They had one in stock when I ordered mine. You will love it. You can practice screwing a 5/16 bolt into a 1/4 nut if you want to practice reloading before your gun comes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt P. Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Congrats on that. Ya, I wish I would have ordered mine sooner, but what can you do. Steve, I will miss you in open.....................that gun is pretty awesome though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyburg Posted March 30, 2012 Author Share Posted March 30, 2012 I have great news. I received an email that my gun has shipped. I was told it would be about 6 weeks because they were waiting on a shipment. It's been about 2. I can't wait, my berretta base pads should also been with in the week.

Joe L Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Congrats on the new gun. I was impatient, bought a standard CZ75B for IDPA ESP, converted it to SAO, and am slowly modifying the heck out of it. I could have been better off in the long run waiting for a 75 Shadow T Custom but would have missed out on all the fun of putting one together myself, which I love to do.

cyburg Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 I picked up my CZ last night. I will post some photos and observations tonight... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyburg Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 (edited) Today I broke the new gun down and gave it a good cleaning, getting rid of all the packing grease and getting it ready for its first day at the range. I played with the trigger dry firing for about 30 minutes. The trigger is smooth with no ruff spots. It will be monday before I can take it to the range. The trigger is 7.15 double and 3.6 single. Once I get it to the range I will give another update. I tried to add a photo but it would not attach. Well it looks just like every other Shadow...But this one is mine...

burningsquirrels Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 it's a CZ. no range report needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyburg Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 Sorry for the late report, I had to go out of town after I left the range. I loaded 150 rounds consisting of 4.5 auto comp, mixed brass, cci sr primers (because I have 5000), 124 jhp mg. The first 10 rounds were shot thru the chrono and averaged 125.9 power factor. It seems I am shooting a little high and as I shot more rounds I started to get use to the grip and trigger. Very smooth with no ruff spots during the trigger pull. Once I finished my chrono I moved back to 25 yards and shot 50 rounds, 15 yards 50 rounds and the rest on steel. I am still shooting a little high with my groups but I will shot a couple of hundred more in the next week or so and I am sure it will all come together. I will include some photos on my next report. I am very please and will continue to dry fire a lot before I get back to the range. Thanks for reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
