WoodrowAugustus Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 I have an offer to trade into a CZ custom shop 75 Shadow Tac II. Already have a SP-01 Shadow and an SP-01 with soon-to-be CGW work, so is there anything that makes it worth owning the Shadow Tac 2 as well? I’ve looked around and there is not a lot of info on this discontinued model other than a smattering of high reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joedirt199 Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Won't the tac 2 be a decocker model? I would stick with what you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billthemarine2862 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) The shadow tac 2 is a cz custom 75 shadow. It is not a de-cocker model. It comes with a short reset disco, extended FP and 13 pound main spring. The "Tactical" portion of the name comes from the fact that it comes with a tritium front sight and fixed rear sights. The internals are fully polished by cz custom. It has an 85C trigger, aluminum grips, and extended mag release. Mine was about 8 pounds DA and 2.5 SA out of the box. The main difference between a shadow tac 2 and a SP-01 Shadow (other than the fact that the tac2 comes already worked over by cz custom) is that is on a standard 75 frame and not a SP-01 frame. In other words, short dust cover and no accessory rail. An 11.5 main spring will get the DA trigger pull to just under 7 pounds. It is a very nice gun. You can tell it has been worked over by CZ Custom when you pull that trigger and check the reset when compared to a stock shadow.

twowheels Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I've got both a 75 shadow and an sp01 shadow, among many other CZs. The difference in weight, feel and balance comes down personal preference. My son likes the 75. I prefer the sp 01. Oftentimes, I shoot the sp with a ts slide as I like even more weight and the longer sight radius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodrowAugustus Posted March 29, 2019 Author Share Posted March 29, 2019 Thanks for the input. I opted to not take the trade seeing as it doesn’t add much to what I already have. I’m really trying to steer everything towards the same P01 and SP01 frames for consistency amongst what I carry and shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidSeavey Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 the reason you'd want a tacii is because it's just so sexy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
