iLift45s Looks for Range

Just got my Checkmate back from Cz Custom Shop.  Set up with comp, C-More, charging handle, *thumb rest [generic]*, and action tune.  WOW!!!  I’m in LOVE with it!   It’s probably my favorite pistol to shoot and my first time with a dot.  The accuracy is almost like cheating with this pistol.  It begs to be shot fast.  
 

What do you guys use to clean the lens on the C-More?   I been using these lens cleaning wipes.  On my phone and iPad they work great.  On the lens they do but it’s like they leave a haze a little.  Just don’t want to scratch it.  
 

What pound recoil spring is recommended? Stuart told me if I’m not having an issue with cycling than leave it with factory spring.  Is this 13lbs?

 

Where can I find more mags?

I looked at buying a Czechmate and the info I saw said stock is 13lbs. I was going to buy an 11lb to test as well. There’s a couple YouTube vids showing gun shooting with stock 13lb so may give you idea of how flat that shoots with that weight.

There are some good Youtube videos with slow motion to show the muzzle rise and then dip after the slide returns.  I liked running springs a little lighter because I felt that my support hand could wrench down on the thumb rest and keep the muzzle down; the lighter spring seemed to help with the muzzle dip at the end of the cycle.  If you are running 125s I would start with an 8 and test; I ended up liking 135 Blues and 8 was perfect.

A great deal depends on the power factor you are running. If your running minor towards the lower end you may need  a lighter spring, but near stock if running major. As others have said watch some of the youtube videos on this.

I use this tool that was recommended to me by the CS Manager at C-More. It works great. Takes about 15-20 seconds to clean both sides of the C-More lens and gets the lens super clean around the outside edges also. 
 

Also they recommend you clean the diode aperture with a micro-size Q-Tip with a small amount of 70-80% Isopropyl Alcohol on the tip of one end followed by a light twist from the dry Q-Tip on the other end.

thank you for the links.  I’m going to order one real soon. Looks fantastic.  
 

As far as springs go the factory is 13 lbs from what I read.  I’m going to try a 10 lb spring.  I’m shooting Hornady 115 grain HAP’s with 6.0 grains of Power Pistol.  So accurate.

The factory springs in the 4 Czechmates I have had all were 14#s.  When running major power factor (168-171 PF with 9.9GN of Accurate #7 and 115 MG RN CMJ) I use a 10# recoil spring.  I have throated the barrels on all of my Czechmates so they will accommodate loading out to 1.160".  With respect to finding more magazines, you can usually get them at CZ Custom, or at the CZ USA site.  Lastly, for cleaning the CMore lens, I use the Zeiss lens cleaning wipes you can buy at Sam's or WalMart.  They come in a giant box and are individually packaged so they are convenient to through a bunch in your range bag and use during / after the match as needed.

I run an eleven pound recoil spring on my Czechmate shooting 145 grain bullets at minor power factor.  Works great the heavier bullets and lighter spring seem to lessen felt recoil. On softer loads in 124 grains they will not consistently cycle the slide. especially if the comp is on. I don't shoot major power factor very often so the 11lb spring seems fine
