FLL1911 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 It started as my first Open gun, but I haven't used it for a while still shooting Open. Basically a Standard SP01 with compensator attached to the original barrel, double action firing mechanism switched to single action.Shoots 9 Major.

Gooldylocks Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Does anyone know if any of the Czechmate Parrots have made it stateside? I love the way they look, and like the checkered grips more than the grip tape. Also, do all Czechmates only come with one barrel now? What parts do they still come with? Thanks!

steel1212 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 (edited) It's a work in progress. Once we get it dialed in the comp might not look like this. Plus it will get a fresh coat of Cerakote. Edited July 28, 2017 by kneelingatlas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steel1212 Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Yup works great for now. Might have somebody make one bent up for left side so it's not a knuckle buster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfordap Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 My Czechmate was flat shooting but hard recoiling with 170pf ammo so I modified the compensator to add muzzle brake properties. I added side ports in the first two chambers and extended the last chamber down the comp a ways. Now its light on the rearward recoil and shoots even flatter. I couldn't use the tools to attach photos so I added hyperlinks to them hope no one minds. If it is not okay go ahead and delete. http://www.expeditionfirearms.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/IMG_3947.jpg http://www.expeditionfirearms.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/IMG_3946.jpg http://www.expeditionfirearms.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/IMG_3948.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11287 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 So how many rounds through it with the comp modifications.? Are you still at the 170pf with same load? Did you have to refinish the comp after the mods? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfordap Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I have 500 rounds through it with the modified comp and I am still at 170pf. Average speed didn't change but deviation of the speed of each round went down so now my speed is much more consistent. Next stop for the pistol is the Area 1 Shoot in Idaho and I am sure the gun will be great through out it. As for refinish I just use a cold blue solution to blacken the exposed metal inside where I made cuts and drilled but its not really necessary as the carbon coats the bare metal also. There are no external cuts made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11287 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Send me a message after your shoot in Idaho to let me know if it is still working well for you. If it does, would you mind if copied your mods to the comp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfordap Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 11287 I will get in touch after Area 1, and by all means you are welcome to use my mods, just would ask that if you make your own addition to the mods post them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) I welded a bridge across the fourth port and opened up the sides too, big improvement. Did you do all the mods at once or try it between each one? I haven't messed with side bleeders much yet, but I'm interested Edited July 28, 2017 by kneelingatlas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) I also saw some gains when I opened up the first port a bit: Edited July 28, 2017 by kneelingatlas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steel1212 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Yeah we are still contemplating opening sides on mine. I'm not very recoil sensitive so I'm not sure I need it lol. I just want it flaaaaaaat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfordap Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) KneelingAtlas - I tried the side ports in the first chamber, then once I noticed a difference I added the ports in the second chamber and noticed a bigger difference then I dropped the last chamber down. All in all it was a weeks worth between cuts and tests. I may set my crown back and open the first chamber like you did. Why did you weld the last chamber at the top? worried about strength? Steel1212 - my biggest problem was the recoil was stabbing me with the mag catch button but I didn't want to shorten it and like you said get the gun as flat as possible.

kneelingatlas Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 Strength, tune-ability, and looks. It started out mostly closed, then I figured, I would shoot it, open it up and I could tune the side to side by making one side bigger than the other and get it to track straight up and down.

I've always been anti slide mounted dot, but it was easy to draw, easy to track and very light! I'm going to mess around with a few of my other comps, but I definitely want to shoot my next match with this dot.
