Shadow 2 with Cajun 10X bushing fit question

[fyaman43]

For those that have installed the 10X bushing on an S2, is it difficult/near impossible to remove the barrel for cleaning, etc.?  
 

My Accu with the CZC bushing would be impossible to remove the barrel without removing the bushing so wondering how it works with the fixed Cajun bushing.  
 

Thanks!

It’s not that difficult for me. I clean my shadow 2 after every match or at least once a week.

Harder but not impossible it just takes a bit of wiggling. I think it’s harder to get back in than anything

I mounted a Cajun bushing and found no difference at all. Not in fitting the barrel and not in accuracy.

i use this Antonin Z.  bushing .very tight tolerances . it can be used with longer barrels with no problem. and tight fit.

in my TSO it improved accuracy from 3" at 20 y. to  less than 3/4" . with only minor sight zeroing change.( 2 clicks down only)

(gun was supplied with almost  3"  spread   factory target at 25 y.)

Yigal; I might try that one. Ipscstore is in Europe and a reliable seller so that would be no problem getting one.

I have to force the barrel down a bit through the ejection port to get the barrel out of my Shadow 2 slide with the CGW installed CGW bushing. Thought it was wrong when I got it back, but the forums and CGW all say that's normal with the bushing.

Thanks for the responses.

My thoughts (on the Cajun bushing) were that if it’s tight enough to improve lockup/accuracy, it’d be too tight to be able to remove the barrel.  Seems as though it’s a little of both or somewhere in the middle.

somebody solved similar problem

I found mine very hard to remove the first time until I figured out correct orientation and where to move when. I think if you maneuver it for a bit nicely, it should come out. At least mine did. And it's still accurate as heck. But definitely tighter than before.

Thanks for all the responses here.  I had a shop do some slide milling on my S2 and install the CGW 10x bushing.  I couldn't remove the barrel initially, but with some wiggling at the right angles I can now remove it and re-install it.  It took a little while to figure out but it works.

I have 2 with the bushing. I noticed that it's a little harder to get in and out when they were new.

Seems easier now. Also just getting used to how it feels helps.
