PrimaryBruce Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 (edited) Been noticing people across several forums inquiring about having CZ P series guns milled for red dots. There's not a whole lot out there to be found on it for these guns, but it can be done! This one's got some more time to spend in the CNC to achieve it's weight loss goals, but she's coming around.

PrimaryBruce Posted July 19, 2015 Author Share Posted July 19, 2015 (edited) We did some more lightening today. Didn't think to snap a pic before packaging it up to send off to our coater for cerakote. Guess the next pic will be when it's all done.

He owns a CNC machine shop and does firearm work on the side. We will probably be a forum sponsor here soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritinUSA Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 My favorite shot. Any idea what the CZ weighs with the milled out slide and scope (+ empty magazine) ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimaryBruce Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 My favorite shot.Any idea what the CZ weighs with the milled out slide and scope (+ empty magazine) ?If I remember I'll get a weight on the shop scale monday. On another note I put 300 rounds through it today. Zero malfunctions even with 50 rounds of Tula. Shooting this gun with the Fastfire III is just cheating. Blowing out bulls eyes at 15 yards is just a piece of cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimaryBruce Posted August 4, 2015 Author Share Posted August 4, 2015 (edited) For anyone wondering about weight, mine came in at 31.3oz. Stock weight is 31oz. So we basically managed to have this gun come in at stock weight WITH a red dot and WITH a stainless guide rod vs factory with no red dot and plastic guide rod.

PrimaryBruce Posted August 14, 2015 Author Share Posted August 14, 2015 (edited) Decided the front and rear of the grip could use a little more of an aggressive patterns over factory. I'd like to note that the polymer on these CZ's is...different...for lack of a better word than the polymer of a Glock or other polymer framed guns. You can't treat it the same as you can if you stipple a Glock. The CZ frames aren't as lenient with the heat as Glock frames.

I have stippled a number of glocks, M&Ps, 2011s. What have you encountered? If you aren't careful, you'll literally pull off some of the polymer with the soldering gun. I have done a metric crap ton of Glocks and M&P's too. Never had this occur. I've only done a hand full of customer CZ's, but it's the same with them all - you can't leave the soldering gun on the polymer for more than half a second or so, or you'll pull the polymer off. Tough to explain. Try it on a spare back strap and you'll see what I'm talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works pretty well but it can clog up while using it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurusty Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Are you able to co witness with the Burris, I noticed that you still have the front sight on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimaryBruce Posted August 15, 2015 Author Share Posted August 15, 2015 Are you able to co witness with the Burris, I noticed that you still have the front sight on?Front sight is only to assist in picking up the red dot, which I don't even use it for that purpose anymore. The sight can be seen at the very bottom of the red dot window only. I personally do not like co witnessing sights with red dots on pistols. You don't have much viewing area as it is to start blocking more of it with suppressor sights. Just my .02. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritinUSA Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I removed the fiber optic front sight from my XDM as it was distracting. I have no problem picking up the dot after I did some dry-fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
