eerw Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Pardon my ignorance, but is this a CZ product or is it a customized CZ from an aftermarket shop? Is this from CZC? Is CZC like Smith and Wesson's "performance center" or is it a completely different company? The Orange series of guns come from CZ-UB. The Orange seems to be a factory build of what CZ did for the CZUB team guns. CZC offers the CTS which is a build up using the TS frame and fitting oversize slides the frame and then installing the ACCU bushing. It will be pretty cool to get hold of the Orange guns and do some more cool stuff to them. Looking forward to getting them in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudoshakes Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 TS Orange adds to basic TS: - Hand fitted and polished barrel - New barrel design (link area?) and more durable material - Hand fitted slide to frame - Black frame - Enhanced Czechmate-style grip and triggerguard - Beefier dust cover - Thumb rest - Competition hammer - Trigger job - ø1.0 mm fiber optic front sight - Hight adjustable rear sight (not sure about the .40 model) - Al grip panels - Al magazine pads x3 - Large case (same as with Czechmate) This not for the builders, there nothing left to desire . I think it would worth of the additional price. Mine should be coming in few weeks.'m Im I'm sorry... Yours should be coming in a few weeks?!?!?! WHAT!?! WHERE?! HOW!?! WHO!?! SHARE DETAILS MAN!?!!

PRanta Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 I live in Europe. Here the pistol has been available for several months. Mine arrived a week ago with some other CZ's. The build quality of TS Orange was great. Very tight fittings everywhere. The trigger was better than in my CM. The grip was as comfortable as CM's grip. The massive dust cover is lighter than what it looks. The adjustable sight has a clever design. The spring is pushing moving part down. I think it could last longer than traditional design. The thumb rest can be turned 180 degrees if you want grap more forward with your support hand. Unfortunately I didn't find any use for this gun between my CM and Shadow Orange, so I already sold it to a caring home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshF Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Does anyone know how long you can load .40 in a TS magazine? Curious if I could make one of these take 1.180 ammo I use in my other limited/SS guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdave24 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I think 1.160 is as long as you can go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil plesetz Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Being new to the CZ line up, what is the comparison of the TS Orange to the 75 Accu-Shadow? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesLovesJammie Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Totally different animals. The TS is a single action only, wider frame gun designed to be optimal for Limited. The Shadow is a DA/SA gun designed to be optimal for Production. The TS has a much greater capacity, being designed around the .40, while the Shadow shares magazines with the standard 75B, which was designed around the 9mm. The TS Orange is the pinnacle of CZ's lineup for Limited Division, while the 75 Accu-Shadow is the pinnacle of the lineup for Production, and the Czechmate is the pinnacle of the lineup for Open.

obsessiveshooter Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Looks great! But at that price I could buy two regular ts. Seems to me I could customize a ts to that level of performance and still be under 2k. I wonder what non-gunbroker prices will be.

IronicTwitch Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 (edited) Well, I pre-ordered one of these and even though the timing was a few months sooner than I expected...one of these followed me home today! You'll probably see something else of mine in the classifieds to help offset to splurge. As desired, here's pictures (and my thoughts). Grip: undercut trigger guard and beaver tail is MUCH higher than I expected, checkering is very good 20 LPI-ish feel and sharp, and my first time holding a blaster with a go-pedal and it fits my hand perfectly. Go-pedal is actually inset to the frame, a nice touch. Trigger: they've improved on the stock TS, pretty much in line with the Czechmate, about 1.5# Magwell: not as blended as I'd hoped, but slightly better than stock. Sights: contoured rear adjustable for height only, front 1mm fiber counter sunk against a serrated blade (very similar to a Dawson), very good low profile sights and sight picture. Barrel: very highly polished from tip-to-tail, PLUS the slide appears to be chrome-lined inside where the barrel rides - very cool! Includes a steel guide rod, came with a clear shock buff. Slide-to-frame fit: incredible compared to stock, it's so tight i set just over half an inch of the slide into the frame and it doesn't slide down by itself. It would do that at any point in pulling the slide down the frame. Fit it so tight compared to a stock TS, I am still amazed. See pics in the album link below. Finish: it doesn't look like the polycoat from the SP-01, and it sucked up the lube I put on it. Slide is a matte black and just a shade lighter than the frame. I'm guessing the finish is the same stuff CZ is putting on the barrels (and probably the Shadow 2 from the pictures I've seen of it). I like it. Reminds me of Dan Wesson's "duty treatment" coating. Holsters: It does not fit my TS kydex holster, so no reuse there unfortunately. For me at about $500-600 over stock TS and a few hundred under entry 2011's, I think it's priced just right. Keep the good stuff coming CZ! A couple more pics in the album here: http://imgur.com/a/RgpBE Edited March 12, 2016 by IronicTwitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
