We’ll go over all of the use cases and which pistols work best for each as well as their differences.

A lot of people dont know you can more or less convert a standard SP-01 safety to a Shadow by simply removing the firing pin block plunger and spring, then replace the FPB lifter arm in the sear cage with either a pre-B wide sear or CGW shim bushing. I modded my SP-01 to the point it is better than a Shadow 2, it's basically a Czechmate at this point. If you're interested in getting peak performance from your SP-01 and don't mind shelling out a bit of cash, here's a list of what I changed in mine; ~Replaced barrel with Cajun Gun Works fluted and threaded barrel and installed a compensator on it ~Installed CGW Accubushing and hand-fit it to the new barrel ~Replaced mainspring and guide rod with DPM Systems 3-stage recoil buffer and installed a CZC frame buffer pad ~Drifted the rear sight out and installed a dovetail optic mount for a red dot (I went with a Shield RMS 4-moa dot) ~Replaced stock grips with CZC short grips and flared magwell ~Converted to SAO by removing disconnector and installing CGW Standard Package kit with SAO flat face trigger and race hammer ~As mentioned, I deleted the firing pin block for a much shorter reset ~Mirror polished every single mating surface in the gun for a Teflon-smooth action ~Installed Cross Armory pic rail mounted thumb rest (I didn't want to drill and tap the gun) with custom molded thermoplastic grip surface for maximum muzzle flip control ~Shimmed the sear cage to the frame to prevent any rearward creep when pulling the trigger, it makes the pull much more crisp by eliminating any spring in the trigger With all these mods this gun goes from already great to utterly phenomenal, the trigger has only .050" thousandths of total travel, with .002" thou of creep from the wall and a 1.8 pound pull weight (I also slightly cut and polished the hammer hooks on the race hammer and also polished the adjustable sear in the CGW trigger kit), and with the other mods like the thumb rest, DPM buffer, frame buffer and the compensator, the muzzle flip is almost non-existent. Everything combined makes this the fastest, flattest, most accurate handgun I've ever shot, I'm getting sub-.15 second splits between shots and can land 6 shots on a target at 20 yards in one second, it's stupid fast.

@TheExplosiveGuy Жыл бұрын

Keep in mind that you can remove the disconnector to convert the trigger to SAO too, if it's just a range toy the DA feature isn't needed and the trigger can be greatly improved in SAO. And polishing all your moving internals should be your first step, like the trigger bar, slide rails, trigger, sides of the hammer, anything that moves. If you get the CGW Standard package (for SAO guns, the Pro package is for DA/SA) with their adjustable SAO trigger you can get the reset way down, and the race hammer and adjustable sear make the trigger pull extremely crisp. You can go one step further and remove the firing pin block plunger, and either replace the sear with a wider one, swap out the firing pin block lifter arm for a spacer, or cut the leg off the FPB lifter arm so it can't interfere with the trigger bar. It will drop the reset distance from around .200" to about .060", my SP-01 breaks at around 1.8 pounds with .060" of travel from reset to fired, it's identical to the TSO or other CZ SAO premium race guns now. Also pay close attention to the sear cage, see if there is a gap between the back of the cage and the frame that closes up as you pull on the trigger. It's unnoticeable when you have the stock trigger, but once you put a CGW kit in it will create some obvious slop/spring in the break if it's moving. If it does move (mine had about .015" of movement) you will want to look into shimming the gap inside the C-shaped recesses in the back of the sear cage to prevent it from springing back. I used two pieces of thick paper from a packaging label cut into 3/32" wide squares which I superglued into place, it's a rather simple fix. I've been chasing perfection in this trigger for months now, and with all the methods I explained here, I dare say I've attained it.

I think I might take the SP-01 with the CGW upgrades because I want a “general purpose” type of CZ that can do every little thing at least more than adequately enough, rather than a pistol that’s perfect for competition but not good for battle or carry. My thinking might be flawed though… However, thank you for making a video that actually answers my question! Edit: I might actually just get the CZ-75 SP-01 Competition that just came out.

@b0men 4 жыл бұрын

Depends on what you're using it for. If you're competing a Shadow is a better option because of the lack of a firing pin block. You can dry fire it over and over without needing an o-ring or snapcap. And if you are a serious competitor, you'll be dry firing a lot. The Shadows are worth it for that reason alone, IMO. But if you're just a gun owner and not competing, then yeah the P120 is an awesome option. Clones ae good.

Despite watching about a million videos on it before buying, and about a third of those saying about the same thing on the $550 price point, the best I could find for a brand new pistol was $613 shipped on gunbroker. After shooting it for the first time, I'm not the least upset about the higher than expected cost. The gun shoots amazing out of the box, but I'm still gonna throw a bunch of CGW parts at it anyway.

Hey thanks for the day video and comparison. I plan on getting the SP-01 (safety model). I purchased the G-Fight gen 3 laser trainer earlier this year and really enjoy my dry fire training. You had mentioned about protecting the firing pin safety with a snap cap / O-ring. Wondering if you might have the answer to a compatibility question with the laser trainer cartridge. Will the firing pin safety mechanism in my firearm keep the firing pin from engaging with the laser trainer cartridge? Would I still need to use a snap cap in addition to the laser cartridge? Or does the laser cartridge also protect the firearm while dry firing? Thank you

@b0men 4 жыл бұрын

Nice man keep clicking! Not sure about that as I have never actually used one of those. I doubt the firing pin block would mess with it, based on looking at a pic of the cartrige but I've never used one of those so I really dont know. If the laser thing goes where a snap cap goes, I'd imagine you wouldnt also need a snap cap there.

I’m torn between the SP01 safety versus decocker versions.

if you plan to tinker with the trigger at all the safety version is much easier to work on

no choice here in a California. Got a safety model for $550! Waiting for the CGW Pro Package.

That's pretty good for CA prices. Nice find. CGW Pro Package will be great in that.

Rusty Shackleford well, now you’ll never know. PS ... it’s the same place anyone in California , regardless of location can buy off roster and used guns. Same place I bought my P365. Use that potato level IQ to figure it out.

If you shoot competition and are interested in adding every little component and technique to try and increase shootability, even if it’s only a marginal improvement, then you’re a gamer. Gamers spend years and sometimes lots of money learning how to save seconds on the clock, because at the top level seconds make the difference

@@iShockGamers no problem, no he’s not referring to video games, he’s referring to competition shooting like IDPA or USPSA but if it was video games then he’d be referring to the guys who buy the super expensive controllers and headsets because or the expansion packs to get the nice guns and gear because they can in fact make a difference and they want that next level of ability.
