Made it to the HHRP outdoor range yesterday to try out my new CZ Shadow 2.
Set up in the pistol bay...
Started out checking the POA/POI from 50' with a rest (a couple of yards beyond the steel targets in the above photo) and found it was shooting high with a 6 o'clock hold...
A sight adjustment corrected that...
Then tried it a 7 yards (from a rest) to be sure it would still be good in close...
Satisfied with the sights, I went back to 50' offhand with a two hand hold. The CZ did it's job but the shooter decided to flinch and put one low and one ridiculously low...
Already bored with shooting paper I switched to the steel flipper targets at ~13 yards and put another 150 rounds through it with a big grin on my face. Even went over to the main range and rang a 100 yard steel silhouette a few times.
The Shadow 2 is an impressive pistol. Capable of much better accuracy than I am and very fast to get back on target. The only problem is that 3 mags will hold a box of ammo and the CZ encourages you to empty those in seconds. Ordered another 2000 rounds of 9mm last night to account for that.
This is my first CZ and I now understand what all the "hype" is about. Very satisfied with this purchase.
