I'm so glad yall came to an understanding, I shore were'nt looking forward to come down and separate you two. Pretty sure I could do it after lunch and a short nap. I too would love a couple of CZ's. A hankering that has festered for quite a spell.
So many toys, so little time.
I own a few CZ's. The Shadow 2, probably has a better trigger than Barth's. DA is around 6#, single is a out 3#, from the factory. But it is a comp gun. My PCR has slowly gotten better, after a few thousand rounds, CZ's tend to get smoother. I have thought of getting trigger/action work on my SP01, but it is so good from the factory, after break in , why pay for it.
I will admit, my PCR which is a DA/SA with decocker was not as nice, but it only has about 3000 rounds so far.
I've read that the Shadow 2 is "best of the best" for the CZ guns, right out of the box.Quote:

I've had super lite triggers with super short resets in the past and got unintended double taps :eek:
Seems like ~4 lbs for SA is the sweet spot for me :D
(The Truth About Guns tested a DW Valor at 4.25 lbs, and I love my V-Bob).
I even vacillated over lightening the 75 Compact trigger for the same reason.
Honestly the factory trigger seemed really good to me right out of the box :)
I just had to see what all the fuss was about with these Cajunized guns and took a leap of faith.
In dry fire the SA doesn't feel super lite (hair trigger) or the reset ultra short, I think it will work.
I did keep the factory TRS rather than using the CGW lite TRS for a slightly heavier SA.
Plan on sending a few hundred rounds down range tomorrow and find out.
Also have concerns about lite primer strikes too.
The gunsmith did fire 10 rounds as a function check.
Wish me Luck!
Update:
I've also been worried the CZ 75 being all steel might be too heavy to carry as well.
Almost bought a PCR for that reason.
Just made a grocery run and found the CZ Compact very comfortable to carry!
Just like trigger pulls, there's definitely a "sweet spot" for weight of a loaded carry gun and spare mags.
This feels like that sweet spot for me.
A quality belt and holster really make a difference.
And I find ballistic nylon dual mag pouches, worn in the horizontal position, makes for very comfortable carry of 15 round high cap mags.
Also conceals better I feel.
Super Happy so far with my new gun.
All my worrying for nothing - LOL!
Well, back from the range.
45 HST 124 +Ps ran fine.
50 Geco?!? has one failure (didn't cycle)?
50 Blazer Brass ran fine.
I'm thinking the failure is ammo related :confused:
That's like two boxes of HST with a bunch of S&B/Blazer without issues???
Maybe the new parts breaking in? IDK
I've got three mags and six more arriving Tuesday, so I'll wring it out.
Had a few unintended double taps as I feared.
I think I instinctively ride the reset, and with a short reset and lite trigger this happens.
I'll get a lot more trigger time and see if I can sort that out.
If not, maybe a heavy TRS is in order.
DA is great and usable for Self Defense (no need for cocked and locked).
The new LOK Hand Swell Bogies feel fantastic :cool:
Still getting used to shooting the gun, but things look promising :)
