Gooz Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 From Central SC, rifle shooting forever, 1911 freak forever, used to shoot bowling pins at the monthly hunt/ fish club. Mostly impromptu. Old Arthur makes the1911 a brute on my hands. So I got a CZ shadow 2, kinda nice with a 147 pill . Can’t rack the damn thing to easy, but maybe I’ll learn. Hope to learn something here. Thanks all.

telligentgunner Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Enjoy the Shadow 2. I ended up selling mine so I could buy a CZ Tactical Sport Orange. I'm really glad I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I struggled between the TSO and Shadow for some time, and a shadow showed up at a good price and I jumped. LOL, that said, if a TSO shows up at a real deal, and the TSO owner would consider a trade + $$ on a 1911( I have a few) I would jump on it.

telligentgunner Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 (edited) I tried the Shadow 2 but I just like the single state trigger and extra magazine capacity of the Limited Division in USPSA a lot more with the TSO.

Gooz Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share Posted November 1, 2018 Oh, I’m with you on the s/a only. That’s why I’ve been such a 1911 fan for so many years. DA out of the holster for me was a bit hard to get used to. + who can argue less capacity is better....hmmmm, nobody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might decide to become a nobody after a few matches , for a 1911 person a soft shooting 9mm 1911 can be really nice. Reloading is either part of the fun or a chore depending upon who you are talking to or how you are geared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gooz Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share Posted November 1, 2018 (edited) Yep, thought about that also. Thinking a doublestack 9mm 1911, but grip is just not “1911 right”. I also seem to stay so confused on all the “rules”. Yup, got a lot to learn. For now I think I’m going to “try” production with the Shadow. I do have a 3 1/2 barrel 9mm 1911 I carry, but I will have a 5” barrel 9mm 1911 single stack before to long. I at least need to see how my arthritic hands will handle it. LOL, I have a LS ported V 16 Springfield 45 super that I’ve had for 30+ years that’s going to my grave. Might try that, but I think I’d end up in the full race class, and it’s even a little painfull after a hundred rounds or so of 230 cast ball. 5 grns, bullseye........? My old standby.
