hurley326 Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 5 hours ago, robert.a.brewer. said: hurley, Is that the concealed hammer? Was it a drop in? If not,was it easy to fit? Any trouble with the safety working properly? I was thinking of getting one, but worried about fitment. yes it is the newer concealed hammer. It comes OEM on the Parrot but can be purchased separately. I think CZUSA has a few in stock now. It was completely drop in! Safety works fine with the older TSO style and also the S2 style safety which i have installed. Getting the S2 safety installed is sometimes finnicky but it isnt due to fitment issues its just knowing how to install it properly. For me this hammer was only a visual enhancement. I didn't experience any better trigger pull or anything like that. I simply wanted a Parrot clone in TSO format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert.a.brewer. Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I simply wanted a Parrot clone in TSO format.And if you ever buy a Czechmate, your parts get you half way to a Parrot; so there's that, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inertia Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I was able to accomplish this as well, if you know how to drill and tap metal its a 30 min. job including filing down the old one. I (do not recommend) did not even remove it from the gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

looking4reloadingdeals Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 To those who ordered directly from Sebo, how does it work ordering from them? I see their prices are listed in the Czech Koruna, and it looks like a lot of their info i their site is written in Czech. I’m assuming they’re not in the us because of this lol. IV never ordered from anyone not in the us before. So do I just place an order like usual and I’m assuming by credit card will do the conversion automatically? And it will likely take a bit to get here?Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your credit card automatically converts it to Czech Koruna or you can go to one of those currency converters and check the amount in dollars yourself. The package includes tracking and it took three weeks for me to receive it here in Jacksonville. Keep in mind that this was pre-COVID-19. I was satisfied with my order and would not hesitate to order from him again. Edited to add: It’s very surprising that CZ didn’t install this type of mag release on the 2019 and newer Czechmate. I have to drill and tap my Czechmate’s mag release like I did on my TSO. Edited August 18, 2020 by George16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a better idea than chopping mine/ a shadow 2 one up and screwing something up. I just had no idea how that worked ordering outside of the us Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the reasons I modified mine was because it was not available two years ago. Another reason I did it was because I have all the proper tools to modify two of them and have plenty of time.

I have the knowledge to do it since I worked in a machine shop for 4 years, but I don’t have any of the tools to do it at the moment so it’s better to just spend the $50 and keep the stock one just in case than screw something up and need to spend the money for a new release anyways. That’s why I was hoping for $35 the S2 would be a drop in solution. But, I will go with this and wait for it to arrive.

RorgeRetson Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) Sorry for dragging this up from the dead, but I just got a TSO and wanted to substitute the orange parts for black parts. I can get the mag base pads and aluminum grips from CZ USA, but can't find the Mag Catch Paddle anywhere. Would an S2 paddle work? If not, do I need to order a whole new mag catch?

The screw has thread locker on it. Heat it up good with a soldering iron before removing or you will strip it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonCossack Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Wait so how difficult is it to remove the tso mag catch? Is it just like the 75? I had a shadow 2 orange but didn't mess with it because I loved the paddle. I have a TSO on order and a mag catch with paddle on the way from sebo.

The new TSO (2019 and later) already comes with the mag catch paddle from the factory. I’m surprised you ordered one from Sebo since you won’t be needing it unless the TSO you’re buying is NOS from 2018 and earlier.

I haven't gotten the delivery yet and the picture online was the old model so I basically ordered it for no reason. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bish167 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Easy modification to carry out. grind 1.2mm off square, drill 2.5mm hole for 3x0.5mm tap. Drill a 2mm hole for roll pin 6mm from center of threaded hole. Ends up the same as a purchased one, no modification to the magazine release button extension pad required. You may have to heat the area being drilled and let cool, it is a bit hard to drill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuayThaiJJ Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 It's not too hard removing the paddle, but will take some muscle. Push down on it hard while unscrewing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
