The Czickness LIII….CZing into the summer with friends near and far.

Yep, watched a military arms channel video on it not long after I bought one telling how it's not drop safe and not safe to carry

It’s definitely safe enough, granted you don’t get the same peace of mind of a decocker and FPB though.

There’s a video on youtube called “Shadow 2 Compact - Drop Safe?” by CZ Armorer on youtube where he does what the rest of us won’t, and hits the hammer with a mallet (with a piece of wood in front of it) pretty hard, and it doesn’t even touch the primer with the stock firing pin.

See...MAC says its junk - you should cut your losses and sell it to me!

Just skimmed through the video.....ehh...

I like MAC (Indiana guy and all) and he knows far more than I ever will but....he seems to have a tendency to overstate for the sake of clicks (which I suppose is his job). Plus - he seems to have the worst luck with breaking guns.

Us? Have you meet us?

I am in for a test. WT has the test gun. I have a mallet. It is a rule around here that the "new" guy is the designated holder - so looks like you have that job.

Smack away my friend! I’ll keep ‘er steady for ya!

I bought it fully intending it to never be carried, because I don't carry guns with safeties, so no issue for me...

Yep! I don't see it as an issue - just an interesting design decision. Like MAC said (in another way) in the video, it was probably just a decision based in the realities of production costs/efficiency since it is a Shadow 2.

Morning guys

Where’s that meme with the guy in the orange puffy coat recoiling away from a CZ with no firing block but pointing and smiling in acceptance of the P320?

He’s busy buying a Series 70 1911.

Good morning my CZers. Finishing up a meeting with a client right now, and catching up on the conversations from last night and this morning. But I'm giving prayers to all who needs them and hope everyone is doing well!

WOW...more CZ talk than coffee salutes this morning???

Starting dinner in the deepest (tallest?) lock of the trip, 80 feet. Will exit the Main canal tonight and enter the Danube river overnight.

Casting bullets today after moving gravel this morning. Inside for a break.

That sounds like quite a cruise. A lot of history runs through that area.

CZ might be coming out with optics ready P07/09s here soon. If they do I know what my next purchase is!

 

[wtburnette]

I wouldn't mind having mine cut. Hmmmm.... might need to hit up ol T-DOGG.

 

[JayCo]

Getting an optic cut done is something I want to do. But I also don't want to mess up my original slide. Ive thought of buying a second slide to get milled. That way I can go back to OEM if I want. Finding someone local would be nice too.

I wonder if we’ll only get an optic cut, or a whole second generation of the p07/p09 instead. I want to have hope since it’s supposed to be a “cool update to a current model”, but I’d still be happy with just the optic cut.
