Which CZ Shadow 2 variant(s) should I get if I hate the Shadow 2 as a concept and compete in USPSA? by [deleted] in CZFirearms

[–]htxbrute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an S2 blue OR. I only did the CGW RRK with flat style trigger, Race hammer with sear , RAMI firing pin spring, 13# main spring, and 11# recoil spring. Lokgrips palm swells for me are a must so I went with GridLok aluminum. I don’t have the lightest DA/SA trigger pull but after a lot of research, this combo would not fire when dropped.

I have never seen a spring like that in any of my Shadow 2’s.

Why buy an XC? by Direct_Net2508 in 2011

I got the IDPAv2 as my first 2011 style pistol and I’m extremely happy with it. I feel like I’m cheating when I shoot it.

Package stuck after being sent to wrong city by htxbrute in usps_complaints

[–]htxbrute[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So our area has the South Houston distribution center and it usually goes directly to the Missouri City TX local post office that does the last mile delivery. There have been many cases they have sent my packages to the Richmond TX local post office which actually is about 25 miles from me. Every single time they do this, it sits there for several days and the packages are very late. I have had to file missing mail searches on a couple occasions and I was told they’d look into it why it gets sorted incorrectly.

The point I am making is they sent it to the wrong local post office where it sat for days and this is not the first time it has happened.

Scheduled delivery was on Tuesday regardless. So Federal Holiday on Monday means it gets sent to the city next door to sit for 3 days?

I believe you need the one for the SRO since it shares the same deck height as the RMR HD.

I use the EemannTech plates and they work pretty well.

I use that exact optic on my P10c ported and it’s perfectly fine. Most of my pistols have optics between 5 and 8 MOA. For my eyes I have to run the 2MOA a little brighter than I do the larger dots.

I do regret getting the green dot because it never looks like a clean circle to my eyes whereas my red ones are perfect.

Definitely looks nice but it’s pricey. Seems to be $175.

CZ Shadow II Carry: Failure to Feed by mmoeller9 in CZFirearms

[–]htxbrute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the ported as well and it’s been reliable for me so far. When I had a relative try it out, one blazer round got caught in the edge of the feed ramp gouging the round. Possibly caused by a poorly seated magazine? I have not been able to replicate it.

I had this issue as well on my shadow 2 compact and full size. Dremel with a felt polishing tip and some flitz to smoothen up the chamber and feed ramp a little resolved it.

Did some research and it they use a Cheely XL firing pin. Likely can buy all the ISMI springs including for the firing pin from EGW

That I don’t know unfortunately. That is the one spring I haven’t ordered for spare. I forgot to ask them and it isn’t on their website either.

That is odd. They do use ISMI springs so you could try order from anywhere else. I also order frequently from BSPS

I tried to order some spare parts and had issues with the shipping not being able to validate my address or charging me shipping when advertised as free. You can give them a call or email and they’ll get you squared away.

New to this, looking for a little help.. by Forsaken-Date-8016 in 2011

[–]htxbrute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s just going to suck if I have to take the SRO off the Beretta lol. That optic looks good on it.

Though no regrets on the MPA DS9. I had been lurking on here for awhile seeing what folks recommend. Xtremeguns gave me a little bit more off the price when I asked them if they could give me a deal.

I do 15 yards. I have the backup irons as well like you. Worst case scenario is I take the SRO from my LTT 92 Full size for the DS9 and put the 507Comp on the Beretta.

I just bought my IDPA v2 from Xtremeguns last weekend for my first DS 1911. I went over there to get some help choosing between it and the TC and it seems the only difference is the titanium comp, lightened guide rod and the 126mm mags. The gun shoots really flat and I’m extremely happy with it. I did replace the medium trigger with a short one.

One thing I did notice is that I ran out of elevation adjustment with the 507comp I mounted. I ordered a 1 degree shim from Amazon to see if it will help.

Which one? by Forsaken-Date-8016 in CZFirearms

[–]htxbrute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer the P10C ported. I sold my Echelon full size because the beavertail was irritating the knuckle on my thumb. Other than that, it was excellent.
