AngeloConde Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Are there any aftermarket gas pedals or slide rackers that you guys like that you were able to use without modifying you're pistol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George16 Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) Check out DAA’s adjustable thumb rest. A friend of mine is using it for his TSO and czechmate and he didn’t need to modify anything. You have two choice of hole number and location. You can either get a one or 3 hole (cmore /tanfoglio) adjustable thumb rest in either the slim or fat version. DAA adjustable thumbrest.

It’s a cheap slide racker from shooters connection. I polish it using my Dremel and polishing compound. It’s mounted on my TSO but can be used on the CM since the cut is the same. Double checked with my friend’s CM for fitment and fits really good. Slide racker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slide racker Sorry to veer off topic a bit, but what holster is that? Red hill tactical? I just ordered one for my TSO that has the stock thumb rest and I wanted to hear your opinion. I’ve read they are unsafe due to the trigger being accessible while holstered.(?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George16 Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) It’s a red hill tactical. The trigger is not accessible while holstered if it was made properly. Mine is made properly and it’s not accessible through the side. heres a close up picture of the side of the holster whowi g the thumb rest. another pic Edited May 3, 2018 by George16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abb1 Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 I have the CZ thumb rest which is the best as it does not utilize the mounts screws or holes. The slide racket I moved to the left side and angled it upwards so that it won’t interfere when gripping the pistol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kneelingatlas Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 I like the racker on the left, but in the factory racker location it gets in the way of my thumb going to the safety so on my TS Open I moved the dovetail forward, there's a sweet spot where it just barely clears the horizontal CMore: You can't really see it in this picture, but I've drilled and tapped the bottom edge of the mount to attach a flat thumb rest, parallel to the bore, like an STI: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George16 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 That’s a great idea in drilling and tapping the edge of the mount. What the size of the screw you used? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Sebo sells it at Sebo Weapons. https://seboweapons.com/en/31-mount-rest he also sells the mounts that are drilled and tapped, but I just drilled and tapped my own as I prefer the RTS2 over the slide ride.

A few whacks to bend it up. At least that's what I'm going to try now that I've seen this. I have a straight on that I ended flipping to the right side because it kept hitting my thumb when it was on the left. If I can get it bent upwards just a little, I can bring it back to the left.

shootmove Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) The EWG Sidewinder Slide Racker (finished; with set screw) just works as a drop-in part on the Czechmate. It's a bit too long on one side, but, that's mostly cosmetic. Running it right now. Let me take a moment to say that the factory slideracker is not worthy of the rest of the gun : a) it's flat, therefore easy to jam your thumb during shooting; b) the left side of the gun (where rackers belong, at least for righties) is super crowded with controls. As a rule, 2011s have better placement of the racker (further forward) versus the CM. Edited January 8, 2019 by shootmove grammar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The little dimple-looking thingy on the end is the screw. Excuse my ignorance, but I'm only asking because I'm thinking about getting one. How does that set screw on the side hold the racker in place? And, can you easily remove the racker when you want to take the slide off. That's really the only reason I've left the factory one in place...I didn't feel like having to take it off every time I want to clean the gun.

George16 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 The set screw “bites” into the slide in the same manner the set crew on the stock slide racker keeps it in place. You can easily remove the slide racker by loosening the setscrew and pulling out the racker. It’s very easy and not inconvenient at all for me.
