    SP-01 Mods/Upgrades

    Hey all!

    Just got my SP-01 out of jail. Do you guys have any easy mods/upgrade recommendations for this handgun? It will primarily be a range toy, I don't plan to carry it or use it for HD.

    I've heard the CGW Pro package is pretty popular, but that's a bit too expensive for my taste. I'd prefer something cheaper and that I could do myself (I'm an amateur though).

    Congratulations!

    I remember when I had a CZ SP-01; it was stock for about a month...

    Before -



    Then after posting a poll and reading up on what was available, I sent it out to Dave at CGW and received my custom masterpiece...



    Not cheap, but sooooo worth it

      just use and it you should be plenty happy as a range toy. Your smile just gets bigger the more you are willing to spend. You can get the CGW sear and hammer as a basic upgrade. That alone improves the trigger feel.

        Tagged. Just put mine in jail today.
        The actual value of above $.02 is less than $.01 after taxes.

          You can do the pro package yourself if you are comfortable with the work. I did my own (bought the starter punch too) and a bunch of polishing as well. Works great. And with a CGW recoil and hammer spring, it shoots my favorite ammo very nicely.

            Just shoot it. Put at least a 1000 rounds through it then come back and ask.

                Upgrade? Get yourself a Kadet kit and a whole lot of .22 and 9mm ammo. You will feed them with 200 rounds of .22 with the Kadet kit and 200 rounds of 9mm weekly and you will thank me later.

                      I've got 150 through it so far. Main thing I've noticed so far is the slide is a bit hard to rack, so I'm thinking about replacing the recoil spring with a 13# one.

                      You’re going to have a gun in the house but don’t plan on using it for HD? I have no idea how that works.
                      No need for it where I live (3rd floor apartment, verrry safe area). The single point of entry is my front door, which has a deadbolt lock.

                          I honestly love the gun as is. Only thing ive done was ceracote my frame for 85 at OC CUSTOMS (stripped frame). I suggest more buy more mags (mecgar) and grips. I did not like the bumps on the Original grips. Alot of after market grips are alot thinner profile and allow you to choke up higher on the gun.53EEAC54-9AD9-4C87-A5D6-1827429EE1D5.jpg

                            The first 500 rds just to break-in your pistol.
                            The next 500 to get familiar with your pistol.
                            After 1K+ rds, then you will know what component that you pistol need to improved for your shooting style. Then you may have the following options:
                            - Spend $600 to send your pistol to CGW.
                            - Buy the CGW kit and do it yourself.
                            - Install the fiber optic sights
                            - You may end up with spend 4 buck at CVS to buy a white nail polish and paint your front sight, that's all you need.
                            Oops, I almost forget, put that pistol to a safe then buy another CZ and start all over again

                              I like my SP-01 as is, however, I did get a kadet and it is absolutely awesome.
