regor Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 (edited) I have had the occasional issue with my TSO and CM where I get a poor support hand position on the draw and end up pushing up on the safety just enough to prevent firing. It would be nice if the ledge on the safety was a little higher/angled slightly upward when the safety is off, more like a 2011 safety. Does anyone make a version that addresses this or have any solutions? This happened to me at a match this weekend (on a fixed time stage!) and one of the other shooters in my squad said he has the same issue and was going to try to weld on some extra material on top of the safety and then file away the bottom to shift the ledge up a few millimeters. I am a pretty crappy welder, but at $35 for a spare safety, I might give this option a try... Edited March 9, 2020 by regor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadlyHuggz Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 The shadow 2 safety fixed that for me. The paddle sits a bit higher and is flat on the support hand side. I bought mine from Sebo but I'm sure you can find them on CZ-USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCFL Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 +1 for the Shadow 2 safety. For me, much better than the original CM safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't previously see your cost restriction. IMO, the shadow 2 safety is expensive but very worth it. A cheaper option is to grind down the safety on the support hand side. I did that before I purchased the new safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did that before I purchased the new safety. $35 isn’t a cost restriction, I was just commenting that a $35 experiment might be worth it. I don’t have any issues with the right side safety, I’m right handed so the only time I use the right side safety is WHO stages. Is this the Shadow 2 safety you are talking about? https://cajungunworks.com/product/50012-safety-set-shadow-2-extended-left-side/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamge Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) Best upgrade to a TSO is the S2 medium shelf safety on left side of gun (for right handed shooter). The huge paddle safety is another option, but on a gun that is being "dumped" on the clock (i.e. 3gun), it comes off too easily and will get you in trouble. Second best upgrade is LOK palm swell grips. Third best upgrade is grip tape on front half of slide. Edited March 10, 2020 by adamge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darqusoull13 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Yep, Shadow 2 safety is damn near a perfect fix. Quick and easy install as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
