Slide stops for 75's appear to be in stock, what's the difference between the 75 and TS/TSO ones?

75 is a narrower frame, narrower pin.

Shadow 2 and TS/TSO/czechmate all use the wider frame and wider pin.

Edit:  I looked at these guns together and noted that the TS series use a shorter lever on the slide release, S2 uses a longer lever.

Has any TSO owners changed out the factory thumbrest on your guns? I'm contemplating changing mine to something wider and installing the CZC oversized safety to aid in comfort/support ; the thumbrest I'm eyeing is one made for the czechmate and regular TS ( http://fasttoys.net/ca/CZ-Czechmate-and-CZ-Tactical-Sport-Thumb-Rest/ )

Have a IPSC Alex on mine. Love it.

Can someone post a picture of an empty brass case seated in a 9mm TSO barrel? I’d like to see the relationship of the case head to how far it sits in relation to the hood.  I reamed my chamber today and far that I may have ruined my barrel because my case sets flush with the flat portion of my barrel that mates to the breach face.

The bottom of the cartridge rim should be 'at' or a hair above  the hood at the top of the barrel.  I measured the distance from the based of the cartridge to the base of the barrel (pic shows how this was done) and come up with 1.08" or 2.74mm.

Thank you for the picture. Unfortunately it confirms I ruined my barrel. What is involved in fitting a new TSO barrel? Is it involved as fitting a 1911 barrel?

[igolfat8]

does it work on TSO without any fitting?

 

[NCShadow2]

Yes. Fits perfect but you will need to cut screws or do what I did and buy smaller screws. Will have to look at what size I got.

Can this thumb rest be directly to the frame, without a dot mount beneath it?

[NCShadow2]

Yes, works perfect

Your Shadow 2 called.  She wants her safety back.

[NCShadow2]

Good catch.  I got her a new one

[muncie21]

I picked up an adjustable thumb rest, hoping I could adapt it to work for the TSO.  Looks like there will be a like new thumb rest going on the FS forum soon.

 

The ones from Alex aren't adjustable.  Anyone know if there's an adjustable rest that fits the TSO.

That one does if you get the single hole version and drill out the holes yourself. A bit of modding. My only concern was if you keep applying pressure will it constantly need adjusting. Let me know if you get it and how it holds up after a few matches

I made a small spacer out of plastic and attached the thumb rest using only a single hole, it wasn't very secure.  Putting pressure on the pad caused the ensure assembly to tilt.
