Range report: CZ 75 Shadow Custom 9mm

[Euphoria526]

Tok your close to la?
When I get my sti Spartan next month lets compare the two. I'm cz biased as you know but I wanted at least one 1912 lol. I'll also bring my p01/07 for you to try too as well.

Nice. Love to do a comparison with my mod'd CZ 75B to see/feel the difference.

I get to break my SP-01 out of jail tomorrow (first gun) and I've already been pondering if whether or not I should have gone with the Shadow. Costing over twice as much has made me hesitate.

No doubt, my SP-01 will be fully modded by myself in a few weeks. Just wonder how much that firing pin block makes.

Remember you can remove the FPB from your SP-01 if you decide to. Its cool your doing your own work. I look forward to tearing into one of mine down the road. Now putting it back together, i may feel differently about that part.

Ya man, shoot me a PM when you break that thing out.

It seams that i may be a bit brand myopic, all of my SSE's so far have been CZ's. I might slip in a M&P pro CORE 5" for December.

But, i rode into this SSE thing on a CZ and i might just ride out on a CZ, i am also looking at a P-07/09 for December.

We shall see......

Nice, Tok36. Of course, for 2014 the Shadow Custom comes with shorter reset. In 2013, that feature cost me an extra $95.

Didn't CZC include 10 round magazines with the purchase? Those look like the old 16 rounders with the flat base plate.

BTW, if you want a rubber magazine baseplate, use Beretta 92 baseplates for these magazines.

It would be interesting to compare the different resets on the 2013 & 2014.

I had CZC ship it with the standard caps to my FFL for blocking. I only have a few of the 10's and don't use them much. They have not run well for me in a few of my CZ's.

Its a blocked 16 in the picture from another one of my CZ's.

Thanks for the tip on the base plates. Ill have to check them out.

Congrats! Very nice Custom Shadow 75 without the dust cover. I've got the same one on my short list for sure. I already have the SP-01 and decided to give this one a try.

[Euphoria526]

Tok- ill definitely shoot you a pm when I get it in.
And you get to try my p07 too! Put it this way I'm in love with my p01 but I'm starting to like the p07 more. Was thinking an o9 originally but prefer compacts.

Nice looking gun and very nice shooting. I can only pray I get that good.

Tok36, I tried out my SP-01 today and I'm VERY disappointed with the trigger.

I'm really tempted to grab an SP-01 Shadow before SSE is over unless full mods can redeem it.

Nice pick up and nice shooting I'm tempted to get Shadow SA from Oak Hill now..

[calibased]

is that the Mandingo special ?

[Tok36]

Thanks for the kind words all.

To some of the above comments. Finances permitting, i cannot think of any reason not to pick up a Shadow before SSE ends. Worst case it should be easy to sell after SSE is gone if its not fulfilling your needs.
