StraightUp_OG Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) On this bad boy: I could search out the answers to the questions that will inevitably come up but I thought I would be preemptive and ask the CZ guru's; What do I need to know and or get besides more mags? Any recommendations and info will be mucho appreciated! ETA Heading out to Tuesday night steel so I will check back after the match.

twowheels Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Vvery nice. A short reset disconnector from CZC or CGW is a great mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kneelingatlas Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I know you bought the Target, but if you install the Tactical Sport fixed rear it makes a great slide racker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

razorfish Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Best bang for your buck in mags are the 17 round MecGar AFCs from Greg Cote LLC. For USPSA Production Division is there a basepad/spring option to increase the capacity of these mags? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glk21C Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 To answer your question use grams 11 coil spring and follower. But I would ask why? prod. Div is a 10 round limit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some say the 19 rounders will not fit the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_C Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 The mags can hold more than 10 rds, but after load and make ready there can only be 10 rds in each mag per USPSA rules. Also I'd consider a pair of VZ grips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glk21C Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I should have been more clear. What Chris C said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czhase Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 The short reset disconector is a must have, it will make the single action pull feel closer to a 1911/2011. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerBaron Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 um yeah get the pre-b disco. looks like it already has comp hammer and adjustable sights. I'd grab a slide stop as a spare. some spare fibre rod if you run a fibre front site. get some recoil springs and hammer springs and play around till you get the combo you like more mags that's about it. just remember CZ shadows like quite a short COAL (unless you've had your chamber reamed). somewhere under 1.100 is the go.

StraightUp_OG Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 Thanks all!!! This is what I am talking about! And yeah the CNC thread may start seeing CZ's in the future. Right now I just needed a good production heater and by all accounts this is a good one. But once I get my hands dirty and see how things work I am sure a build will be inevitable. Sure feels good in the hand and CZ Custom did one hell of a job on the action. I almost fell out of my chair when I first tried the double action. Holy cow is it smooooooth!

mgardner Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 It doesn't get much better than that. Looks like mine and my stepson's. Mine wears VZ grips though. About all you really need is lots of ammo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StraightUp_OG Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 Yup, feeding the beasts is always the challenge! I can't wait to take it for a test drive. Hopefully Saturday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twowheels Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) When I handle my friends' glocks, M & Ps, springfields, walthers, etc. I feel like competing with my shadows is cheating. You might also consider some grip tape on the front and rear straps. Edited January 29, 2014 by twowheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleL Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Nice looking pistol OG, makes me wish I had another on the way. Sweet case too! I didnt get one of those with mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StraightUp_OG Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 It really is a nice case! Gotta say, as I sit here dry firing this beast, that it is one well made pistola! It feels fantastic! I had some P9s back in the day and I don't remember them being even close to the feel of this shooter. I am glad I went this route for production. Spent a few more dollars but I am a proponent of buy once cry once. Need some ammo so I can unleash the beast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whoops! Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Am I the only one who needed to get the stronger mag springs from CZ custom in order to make both my Mecgar and CZ factory mags work every time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
