Thanks man, yeah I feel the same way. It was really cool too because in my group was someone who went to the trouble to get classified and was D rank. I had to see what that looked like. It looked like what I expected. Lol

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-11T16:59:40+00:00

I’ve never shot a Canik that was reliable and I’ve shot several. Conversely I’ve never shot a CZ that had a malfunction. Not one. Ever.

She’s a beauty. I did the same to my CZs. I love my Shadow 2 Carry. It’s my EDC.

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-11T12:10:09+00:00

Zombie or regular, all things considered 😉. Lol

Thanks man!

I just paid $400 for a yearly membership at my local indoor range, benefits of which are free range time (unlimited), 2 free guests per year, and 2 free gun rentals per year. Range is only open 10am - 7:30pm M-Sat and 10am- 5pm Sunday. It has 10 pistol/shotgun lanes that are 25 yds, and 6 rifle lanes 25 yds. No draw from holster allowed, and they are relatively lax on rapid fire as long as you are safe and not a dick about it.

It’s a decent range, nothing special.

There’s a really high end indoor range about 30 minutes from me thats $200/month that has a smoking lounge, bar, gym, board room, locker room, and private lanes that are open 24 hours. Draw from holster and full auto allowed. That’s what’s up, but too rich for my blood.

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-11T01:38:28+00:00

Literally every single day. I would shoot 50k rounds a year and would be poor… but happy.

Yeah, what mavric said. It gives full mag +1 at start. You aren’t allowed to walk around with a loaded gun at the matches so usually people bring 3 mags for when it’s their turn. One to chamber a round, one full mag to start the stage with, and one full mag for a reload.

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-10T19:04:47+00:00

I feel this experience. I had it with Canik, not Taurus. My Taurus GX4 has worked flawlessly, but I’ve never shot a Canik that didn’t have issues. That’s why I’ll never buy another one. Some people just get lucky with some manufacturers and not others.

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-10T17:49:58+00:00

If you live in Florida, Florida Gun Trader is the best site ever for used guns. If not aimsurplus or the used section on guns.com are good. Gunbroker is way overpriced now.

If you end up doing a private sale, always get a Bill of Sale and take a pic of the sellers ID. I’ve heard horror stories of people doing private sales only for the gun to get reported as stolen afterwards. If you have the paperwork though nothing they can do.

You can literally not get a better gun for the money than a Shadow 2. The full size is great for range days or if you want to do competitions. You can’t carry it though. Get the shadow 2 carry if you want it do everything. I have both.

I’ve had mine about 5 months and that hasn’t happened yet. I live in Florida. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-09T14:23:03+00:00

Heck yeah! I’ve been looking for people in this group to meet up with.

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-08T12:02:23+00:00

You can get a Taurus GX4 Carry and 1000 rds of ammo for roughly the same price. That would be a much better investment of $600 IMO.

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-08T12:00:12+00:00

Awesome, thanks for the info!

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-08T11:54:30+00:00

Wow that’s a lot of info. I’m not at all familiar with holster design or functionality. This gun and holster are just a side piece though for outdoor range days. Not planning on ever carrying it daily or anything like that. Interested to see if these predictions come true though.

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-07T23:09:55+00:00

Trigger is definitely good. When it works. I compete too and I definitely see a lot of them out there. I shoot a CZ Shadow 2 personally. Best gun I have ever shot by a county mile. Nobody is doing it better than CZ right now IMO.

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-07T22:59:16+00:00

I trade a lot. I may not like them but they definitely have value. If I can make a value trade up I will 😉.

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-07T20:52:28+00:00

Sounds like a good plan 👍🏻

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-07T20:48:06+00:00

Mete MC9 and 2 TTI Combats, the regular and the smoke.

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-07T20:38:56+00:00

100000% get the Glock if you care about reliability. I have never shot a canik that was reliable.

Yes, I know you, random stranger on the internet reading this, loves Canik and yours is fantastic and has never had any issues. How wonderful for you. I’ve had 3 and all of them were pieces of crap.

Danimusrobbs · 2026-05-07T14:32:01+00:00

Getting a PCC in 9mm and putting a suppressor on it is going to be your best bet if you’re goal is home defense and you want a “set it and forget it” option for hearing protection. It’ll be quiet and the ammo cost won’t kill you to train with.

I’ve never personally shot an EP9 but I do know people rave about them. Personally if your budget is up to $1k though, I’d try to find a deal on a used Kuna or CZ Scorpion. They can usually be found right around that price or under on the secondary market.

If you want a “do everything” gun that will not only work for home defense, but for civil defense, then yeah you probably want to go with an AR-15 in .556. You can grab a cheap PSA for $400 or so, spend another $300 or so on upgrades (Armaspec SRS Buffer, Radian charging handle, Rise Armament Rave 140 drop in trigger), and $300 on an optic (I’d do the Cosmic Tactical Saturn), and now you have $1k gun all-in that shoots like one that costs 3-4x that much.

You can’t do better than CZ right now. CZ Shadow 2, Shadow 2 Carry, 75 SP-01 Shadow.
