MissionaryMike Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 CZ and its variants, like the venerable Tanfoglio, pretty much run rampant in Production on the Nationals stage. But what about Limited and L10? Are there any top shooters in the highest echelon of shooters running around stages w/ a CZ in their hands?

philippshen Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 I heard CZ/Tanfoglio are popular in Europ while 2011s are popular here in States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obsessiveshooter Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 CHA-LEE used to run a tanfo in limited, now runs a 2011. Don't quote me on this, but I think the cost of frames and top ends went up and up, and customer service from tanfo was really poor, so he switched. I don't know of any other high level shooter using the platform, but I don't see how it could hold you back either. Certainly won't keep you out of GM. I'm curious as well if any top shooters are using the TS. I'd like to be the first, but I have a job and a family...Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reloads are faster/more reliable with a 2011 than a TS, I don't think there is any issue with Tanfo vs 2011 but I don't have one to compare. There is probably a different magwell/mag opening solution for the CZ out there somewhere but I have not found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdyb Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I have a czechmate mag well on mine and then hand blended the frame opening to the magwell. No reload issues there due to anything equipment related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowdyb Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 yeah, to me, the stock little plastic mag well is an instant throw away part. hahahah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huskerlrrp Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I took the CZ custom large magwell and blended it to the frame. I haven't missed a reload yet but you can see some of my flyers with the nicks. (note: the rear has a smoother transition than the picture indicates).

Playing with reloads on mine, the rear does not seem to need to be dead even between the well and the frame but the sides of the frame hanging out are a problem, the front is already matched pretty well. From the picture it appears that the CZC well is oversized relative to the opening in the frame so you end up removing metal from the frame to match the well instead of the other way around? Would be a lot more relaxing to dremel on a $75 replaceable part than my brand new gun. Edited February 26, 2017 by IHAVEGAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had it re-hard anodized but it was probably a waste of time if function was only considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gooldylocks Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I shot my tactical sport in limited division, it did fine. There would be no reason that you couldn't shoot one to very high level, but the reloads definitely are easier on the 2011. If you don't get them mags just square to the gun, you can actually get them to lock up in the frame since it's a square hole and a very square magazine. Less forgiving than the super duper taper of a 2011 tube. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
