kneelingatlas Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Is anyone making custom comps for CZs/Tanfoglios? Here's my story: I had always imagining having one frame with a .40 slide for Limited and a comped 9mm one for Open. My first idea was to get a Gold Team, then a Limited Conversion, but I heard enough bad things about the V12 to stick to CZ. CZ Custom said they would fit a .40 slide to a Czechmate for me, but I couldn't bring myself to dump over four grand on the setup, so I just bought a TS and put my Open dreams on the shelf a while. When I came across a used SP01 9mm slide and was off to the races! I threaded a 9mm TS barrel M14x0.75 for a small frame, three port Witness comp I found on Numrich, come to find out it was actually for .40, so needless to say it was less than what I had hoped for. The two port 9mm comp pictured below works, but not as well as the three port .40 comp, so my question is: is there someone out there who can copy the three port comp with tighter exit holes, or better yet, make me a custom comp with a more modern design like a Brazos Thunder comp?

Glk21C Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 try Rich at Canyon Creek. too bad you already have the metric thread on the barrel, you might have had a host more choices of comps that could be modified to your slide profile. good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 (edited) Rich did the weight reduction on my Limited slide, but when I talked to him about the comp, he said he only did cone comps. I'm not afraid to buy another barrel and cut a different thread on it, but as understand it, the OD of a 1911/2011 barrel is .575" and the OD of my barrel is only .550" so I'm stuck with a comp designed for a small frame Tanfo (.550" also) or something custom right? I also though about barrel ports like a Gold Team, but given the limitations on cartarage length, I don't want to waste any powder. I think the best approach for me is to find someone who will make a copy of my three port comp, but with tighter exit holes.
