myproverb Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Kneelingatlas, thanks for the post. I have a question regarding making the reset shorter on a cz that has a fpb. Aside from using/modifying a disco 1, modifying the lifter arm, and the trigger bar; is there anything else necessary that has to be done to achieve the shorter reset? Thanks again.

kneelingatlas Posted October 30, 2014 Author Share Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) I wouldn't use the word necessary, but the steps you describe are those I took to make the shortest reset I could using the ideas that popped into my head at the time (and that I was interested in pursuing). There certainly may be more things to be done (modification of the firing pin block surfaces is one which comes to mind), but this is what I did and the result was pretty good. The more you do the better it will be unless you do too much You could always hand fit a type 1 disco without messing with the lifter or trigger bar; it would probably still yield a shorter reset than a type 2, maybe not as short as if you did, but without as much risk of destroying parts. Everything is a trade off. Edited October 30, 2014 by kneelingatlas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emjei Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 At the World Shoot ( Tanfoglio Armorers bench ) I learned that Tanfoglio has an Extended FPB in order to be activated sooner... CZs dont have that but I think that by grinding the part that actually touches the FP to release it sooner might help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myproverb Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 (edited) @myprobert. Are you using the Gun to compete ?? It's my back-up for production--a 75B. I'm planning to replace my disco 2; and use a hand fitted disco 1 instead. Edited October 31, 2014 by myproverb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is a trade off. Thanks; i'll definitely try this, including working on the surface of fpb. My lifter is from CGW; so it's been modified already. The first thing I'm planning to do is work on the wedge of the disco 1. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jinn707 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Thank you all for this guide. I literally just finished fitting a type 1 disco to my SP-01 with a firing pin block. The trigger now rivals my 75 Shadow short dust cover. I can't wait until my next match! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted November 25, 2014 Author Share Posted November 25, 2014 That was exactly the point of this thread You've made me proud, enjoy your CZs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emjei Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Can you guys average how many times you installed and uninstalled the sear in order to fit the Disco Ps. I have a decocker :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClayK Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Can you guys average how many times you installed and uninstalled the sear in order to fit the Disco Ps. I have a decocker :'( 3 times on one, 5 times on another. 4? The decocker sear cage was designed by a devil.... I hate that thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emjei Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 ^^^ haha.....true. That sear can get you to hell with all the bad words coming from our mouths while assembling it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jinn707 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Emjei, I disassembled and reassembled probably close to 10 times. However, I only did file work on the disco. I only had spare discos. I did not have spare trigger bars or lifter arms. I left the sear cage intact in fear I might take off too much metal from the lifter arm. My suggestion - just get a slave pin and leave the sear cage as one whole piece if you don't feel like dealing with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emjei Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Thanks.....I have the Slave pin and all......but it still a devils work in there....haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jinn707 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I own 2 P01s and I agree with you! It always looks so easy in pictures or in a video. But reassembly of the sear cage with a decocker spring is definitely a pain in the @$$! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClayK Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I've worked on about a half dozen SP-01 Shadows, 4 SP-01s, a P-01, and a 2075 RAMI. I hate the P-01 and the RAMI, but I did my best work on those two. Now I have to go back and do more work on the others.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
himurax13 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) Please describe the fitting process of the CGW Type 3The area behind the wedge must be filed down: Awesome thread. I had no idea it existed till now. Instead of modifying the disco I modified the trigger bar where the Disco rides on until the trigger reset.

ClayK Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Doing it incrementally will ultimately make the best reset, hence why there's so much assembly/disassembly. Once it's fitted, it's awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emjei Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 My PO1 is currently without the FPB due to the fact that I installed a Disco Type 1 I wonder if it would still reset with the FPB installed ?? Or perhaps just a bit of filling will do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or perhaps just a bit of filling will do I had to install a modified safety lever (another CGW part). It would work in DA but not in SA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClayK Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 ^^^ PO1 is Decocker Yes, I know. It also has a FPB. It would fire in DA, but wouldn't release hammer in SA. Put in the modified safety lever (it's the small metal part that pushes up on the block, #14 on exploded view). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClayK Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I've seen the part called a Firing Pin Block Lever and Safety Lever, either way, it's the small piece of metal lever with the hair thin spring that pushes up the FPB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emjei Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Ohhhhh the FPB level..... :-) You just gave me a good reason to Call David at CGW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
