Smitty79 Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 A friend of mine is very left handed. He wants a CZ for USPSA Production and IDPA SSP. He really wants a left handed slide stop, so an SP-01 Shadow is out.If he went to CZCustom, what mods should he get to a CZ85 Combat to get it as close to a tricked out Shadow as possible?I'm thinking:Comp HammerOriginal Combat triggerExtended firing pin11.5# hammer springReduced power firing pin springStainless mag brakeStubby Stainless guide rodPolish job equivalent to a 91030 ShadowI'd get a fixed rear sight.

TonytheTiger Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Not to dissuade your friend but I am also very left handed. I was a bit worried about this as well when I bought my TS but I soon realized I'd never needed to touch the slide stop on the clock anyways. My manual of arms had to be adjusted to the right handed stop but it in no way effected my shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmt Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I am also very left handed. Tell your friend to get the SP01 Shadow and reverse the mag release. The slide stop is not needed for USPSA shooting. Should your friend mistakenly shoot to slide lock - just slam that full mag in - the slide will drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brisix Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 You can get a 85 combat to the same trigger as the Shadow Custom. I would add the 75 pre B disconnector or do a hand fit one. The only difference between the 85 Combat and the Shadow is ambi slide stop and no dust cover/rails. You might want to check with Stuart or David and find out if you can put the ambi slide stop on a Shadow or SP-01. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
