3gunDQ Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Looks like either the mag release or the racker are on the wrong side, you a lefty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottrallye Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 Looks like either the mag release or the racker are on the wrong side, you a lefty? No. The slide on the CM is so low profile and I run my grip up high enough (thumb on top of safety, like a 2011, just less room from the top of slide to top of safety on a CZ) that running it on the left side of the slide would take the skin right off (which I experienced with someone elses CM when I shot it). I have hulk hands too, which doesn't help. I'll end up getting and angled racker for it soon to run on the left side, but for now I'm running it on the right side by choice... deliberately, so it's not really the "wrong" side even if it wouldn't be my first preference. It actually hasn't been an issue at all so far. I've only had to use it when making ready at this point as I've had 100% reliability so far, but it only takes a slight canting of the gun to work the racker as it is. I'll probably end up putting an EGW Sidewinder on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamge Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 All the CMs that people run around here are RH shooters with left side mag release and right side racker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3gunDQ Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 A slide racker on the right for a right handed = time lost. Make it work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kneelingatlas Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I had to put a bead of weld on a sidewinder, then grind it to fit my CZ dovetail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocrrhbow Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I have a Czechmate and love it. It feels the same as a Tactical Sport but is not the same gun. It is a much improved TS. However, what is the same is the feel of the gun in your hand. Your natural point will stay the same so there will be a much shallower learning curve. In my opinion you should get the Czechmate and use it as long as you are doing well and advancing with it. Then you can decide to either get another one (or their latest version of the CM) or get something else. Then you can sell you CM to help fund whatever option you transition to. My feeling is that you will be happy with the CM for a long time. It will definitely not hold you back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottrallye Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 Wanted to leave a quick update: My CM has been incredible. I'm about 1,500 rounds through it and zero malfunctions of the gun. Switched to an 11lb recoil spring, but that's it. Shot my first real match with it on Saturday and shot an A classifier (I'm classified B in Limited) and earned my first overall match win... by 12%. I love this gun, and shooting Open!! Thanks again for everyone's feedback! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have CZ Custom base pads on the normal 140mm mags, and a CZC aluminum pad for the 170mm magazine. That's also the CZ UB "large hand/long finger" aluminum trigger. There is a CZC extended safety on the other side of the gun. That's the list of mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultimo-Hombre Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 The struggle is real! That is a beautiful spread of awesome guns! I can also tell that you are sold on the 90 degree mount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I've tried a few others and didn't like them nearly as much: They were lighter though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
