AmmoParks Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Hey HogHunter! That P30L did great for its debut in my USPSA match! It's off to Gray Guns next week. CZ's are great guns for competition. Hope you find one soon! AmmoParks (BTW - the P30L I'm referring to was yours!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoghunter Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 I actually found a CZ TS 9mm at a LGS. I almost fainted. The TS is a beast of a gun. I'm a big guy with long hands and I thought I'd like the TS but the grip did not feel as good in my hands as i was hoping. I was also surprised that the front post was just a black blade. Trigger was interesting and something I've not experienced before. The reset was short but not very tactile. I guess I was expecting a little more for the $1280 price tag. All of these are just personal preferences so no offense to anyone who feels otherwise. I'm glad I was able to find a TS and I think it helped me move toward a Shadow or some other nameless firearm brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Hog Hunter, You sound exactly like I did when my LGS had a 9mm TS on the shelf: "what's with this cheesy plastic magwell and trigger?" "why are the sights so tall?" "the grip sucks!" "that's a lot of dough for a CZ". I had a relative who could not stop talking about his TS, but I just didn't get it??? Then one night I was shooting a steel match and between stages I saw a TS .40 in the rental rack, so I finished the match with it and fell in love. Once I did a few unloaded starts with my new TS, the big rear sight felt like it was made to rack the slide. I also run Hogue rubber grips on mine. The TS is specifically designed for USPSA Limited division, so if that's not what you're interested in shooting, it's a lot of extra money. In limited you need .40 to shoot major, so with a standard frame .40, you're limited to about 14 rounds, but with the TS, you can get 21. That's the big appeal. If you just want to punch holes in paper, an SP01 in 9mm is the best CZ option in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gator098 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 i recently had to make the same decision and figured that one gun couldn't do everything i wanted it to so i got the 75 Shadow in 9mm from CZ Custom and a CTS in 40cal i found for sale in the classifieds of this forum, but if i had to only get one and wanted the most options for competition then i would have just gotten the 75 Shadow in 9mm, with it you can compete in IDPA SSP, IDPA ESP, and USPSA Production just my .02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassmankai Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Gator098 is right on the money. The TS is a great gun that can only be used in Limited, however, I love the balance of the CZ-75 shadow. It's a smooth gun as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But is sooooo much fun to use in Limited (and IPSC Standard) :0) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
