Anyone here send a CZ to Cajun Gun Works for action work?

Please post the pictures when you get them. I may be more excited than you are.

LOL, no problem, Birds

Damnit, now I want to send him my p01.

Just got this from David... As you can see, he's a perfectionist and seems to leave nothing to chance:

"Something you need to decide on.* The SA is 3.6 lbs, which is perfect, however, there is a tiny bit of creep before the sear breaks.* It's not consistent, which tells me it will improve as it wears in.* I can achieve a crisp break in SA, but the weight will drop to around 3.0 lbs (I have to reduce the hammer hook height).* Right now, the pistol is perfectly safe (and will remain that way even with a lighter SA pull) and is definitely "litigation proof" with the SA as is.* But I don't want you to be disappointed.
*
DA is spot on, 8 lbs and 10 oz and is light, smooth, and extremely easy to gauge.* Ignition is very strong with my extended firing pin.* I have attached a few pics, one of the disco I spoke to you about.* Let me know on the SA pull so I can do whatever I have to do so I can get it on Fed-Ex tomorrow.* Your disco is on the left and has a really rough ridge next to the center arm.”

After a brief reply, he is going to take a small amount of the creep out before sending the gun out tomorrow. Here are the photos--in addition to the disconnectors, you can see both hammers and the work done on the feed ramp and barrel lug:

LOL, me too! Though you are one of the resident CZ guys on the forum. This is playing out like a novel...that guy (CGW) has incredible communication!

Working on posting the pic's in the above message... Android copy-and-paste can be tricky...

EDIT: whew! Done.

"Nailed it"

Just got a note saying David "nailed it" and that my gun is going out today

This thread certainly inspires confidence. I am looking forward to sending one of mine to experience his craftsmanship.

 

[tbhausen]

Better yet, offer stands to anyone who wants to test mine first... Heck, now I'm getting excited

After his last email, I asked David where the SA pull ended up after the creep was eliminated-check out his reply:

"Takes time to mill out the creep w/o compromising the pull weight. In your case, the pull weight did not change (final was 3lbs, 8oz), but it breaks like ice. Ships out today."

WOW!!! Now I AM excited!!!

 

[tbhausen]

Have tracking number in hand--will have pistol back tomorrow. More then...

 

[kazaam]

Looking forward to your first impressions. People seem to go ape **** crazy when they get trigger jobs from CGW so it'll be neat to see what you think.

 

[tbhausen]

I'll try to maintain my composure and cast the cold, hard eye (and finger!) of objectivity upon it tomorrow.

I have heard great things about cgw but have never had my hands on any of their work. I can't wait to read your report. Thanks for posting. It is great that they have good communication , that goes a long way with me.

 

[Mad Macs]

I just got pricing for a full action job on my P-01 along with new sights. Hopefully I will be able to send it to him tomorrow to get this rolling.

Mad Macs,

I would be more than happy to customize your P-01.

 

[tbhausen]

David, that you? Please do feel free to add to or correct anything I've written here.

I got my pistol back this evening, and it doesn't even feel like the same weapon. Obviously, the proof is in the shooting, but the trigger feels beautiful. Dry-fire DA practice (with snap-cap) is way easier to keep the sights on target through the stroke, and SA almost feels like cheating I'll go into more detail and post pic's after the weekend. Gotta rest up--shooting my first Appleseed starting tomorrow

 

[Mad Macs]

Mad Macs,

I would be more than happy to customize your P-01.

I just sent it to you!

 

[schmeky]

Trying to recall if I can remember how to put it back together

Thanks, I'll be in touch.
