Czman Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 My new baby - TS 9 mm with a small set of upgrades. Comp SA hammer (CZ Custom), flat aluminum trigger (CZ UB), Czechmate mag well (CZ USA), aluminum mag base (CZ Custom), and 0.215 inch - 0.9 mm Dawson fiber front. All stock springs, stock FP and stock sear. NO polish at all. Cut rubber grips. I am using stock rear sight, also as a slide racker. Trigger pull is 1 lb 10 oz, very smooth and very crisp with 2 mm pre and 1 mm post travel. Wow! I took it to the range and in my hands it out shot my CM in limited config. More accurate, lesser recoil (nearly zero), and follow up shots were a breeze! CM is still more comfortable to hold (cut under trigger guard, beaver tail) but in terms of balance and shooting feel I am in love with this TS. CM is not worth it for just limited use - fine if you want to own just one gun and go back and forth between limited and open or just stick with open. I am planning to use my CM just in open from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosiershooter Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Good report and good looking pistol. How was the fit of the magwell? Do the base pads fit well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronicTwitch Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I like that red trigger! You got all the right upgrades...I like that it's so easy to make it your own. TS is a great Limited gun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foosa Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Where did you find that trigger? I am like that bit of red tossed in in the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czman Posted July 11, 2015 Author Share Posted July 11, 2015 Trigger came from CZ UB. Shipping is expensive at 50 bucks or so but not too bad if you get a handful of parts at once. The trick with aluminum triggers is to handle them carefully. They bend easily. When re-using both the trigger spring pin and the trigger pin be sure to reduce one end of each so you can drive thru without bending the aluminum (learnt this lesson with one of my CM's). Czechmate magwell is the best. Both the CZ Custom mag bases and the Springer ones fit well, as do the factory rubber/metal base pads. Fyi, I had to use Wolff +10% with the CZ Custom mag pads to get 100% reliable slide lock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gooldylocks Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Can you post a picture of your CM next to your TS so we can compare the beavertail and trigger guard undercut? I removed the checkering on my TS and it feels awesome, but I think I could maybe go a little higher on the trigger guard? And I didn't touch the beavertail, so I don't know how much I could do on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRanta Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Choosing a pistol is personal preference. For me CM fits better in hand, sight acquisition is faster and it shoots flatter than TS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamge Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 I shot a CM in limited configuration last week. It was definitely a nice gun, and the 1.5lb trigger was sweet. The front sight being canted over every time the slide locked back was a bit of a distraction. There seems to be no way to prevent the front sight lug from canting over as soon as it is out of battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine has been installed tight and there is no play at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vixty Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Did the comp hammer make a big difference in trigger pull? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czman Posted July 21, 2015 Author Share Posted July 21, 2015 N Did the comp hammer make a big difference in trigger pull? Not the weight as much (few ounces) but big improvement in pre- and over- travel and smoothness / crispness. Go with the SA comp hammer from CZ USA - I found the fit / action better than conceal hammer - without any polishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
