CZ Shadow 2 Compact

[allen1911]

So...to further prove my insanity, I love this gun so much that I have decided to get a full sized Shadow 2 for home defense. Already ordered the CGW pro kit...just waiting for my FFL to find one in stock for me to purchase. Getting the plain jane basic blue grip model and am going to have CGW mill the slide for an EPS. Shouldn't have sold my spare Wide Safety.

PSA has the Shadow 2 on sale for $899. This is the basic blue grip model, not optics ready. Mine is ordered.

Received my Shadow 2 yesterday and am shipping off the slide to Primary Machine for optic milling today. The insanity continues, LOL. Incredibly happy that the Shadow 2 came with a wide safety in the box, at least now I don't have to buy one.

Been toying with the idea of sending my P01 slide off to them. Following to see how it go's.

What is the going price for that these days?

Looks like $1000 for the gun, $160 for the milling.

Wow- I bought mine when they were dang near impossible to find at full MSRP. $900 is probably whole sale plus $20. Makes me want to buy a spare.

You should always have a spare.

I heard that cost at one of the distributors was $920 wholesale recently.

Okay, liked the S2C so much, I added it's big brother to the line-up as a Range/Home Defense gun. Same internals installed, same grips and had slide milled by Primary Machine to install same style Red Dot. Figured I should include a family picture in this post.

Gorgeous!

Incredibly happy with the quality of work by Primary Machine. Also, the turn a round time was 1 month including time for shipping.

This is exactly what I thought....

Let's take a competition/range type gun that has no firing pin blocking safety (if like the full size), weighs 30oz, and shrink it down.....why? They offer the P-01, 75 Compact, and PCR

P-07

P-07

I personally like the P-07 also, but am moving away from the polymer handguns for my new purchases. Have carried series 70 1911 pistols and never worried about the firing pin block. I never carry with the hammer against the firing pin and like the smoothness that the lack of extra moving parts provide. The weight of the S2C is not really that much more and I am willing to endure it for the increased smoothness and accuracy. It is just where I find my priorities at this point in my life.

Staccato uses series 70 architecture also and are approved by hundreds of departments for on duty use. Maybe if the firing pin spring is heavy enough it is considered drop safe IDK.
