Thank you Oregon government and Oregon State Police!

Have you ever done a trigger job on one of these ?

cool , you just made one of the best firearms purchases of your life.

reloading for them can be different with some bullets, mostly because its a tight chamber where the lands start sooner than most pistols so long ogive bullets need to seat deeper , reducing charge is good lol

Have you ever done a trigger job on one of these ?

yes sir

 

[njames]

What did you do to make it better? For the record I think I'm in love.

yes sir

 

[oli700]

tell me, what bothers you about the trigger ?

Double action is long and hard, single action could have less take up, could be lightened up,band a shorter reset would be favorable.

double action is going to be in your hammer spring. It can lightened but you will need to lighten the firing pin spring to maintain 101% reliability....99% without


the take up is a little tougher and will require a short reach kit from CGW. What I did for take up was use a CGW trigger return spring to artificially fix it.
The CGW trigger spring is light enough that you don't really notice the take up due to reduced pressure. Reset felt wonky at first because the trigger no longer "throws" your finger back but as you lift your finger to reset, the trigger follows your finger positively you just don't feel it and it has never failed.


The single action release is all in the hammer, if you want a lighter single action you have to address the hammer hook as it interfaces with the sear. Lighter hammer spring helps this a slight touch as well. All the companies that sell CZ race hammers and carry hammers and such just cut hammer hooks on stock CZ hammers ...the disconnector helps shorten the reset a touch

Polish the trigger bar and the sear cage surfaces to get that ultra smooth pull

Wow thanks for in depth info! Well I think that is the next step. I'm not really sure when I will attempt the trigger job but I'm sure fairly soon. Maybe if I run into problems I can get some more insight from you considering your only a few miles away. By the way I was looking into this

wow that site has changed
used to be David sold parts and knowledge. You would call him and he would just BS you as long as you wanted
there were no packages for any thing, just parts. I'm going to have to look around it now
i can tell you off the bat that the kit you linked is for the manual safe not the decocker

If you run into problems I'll have your back

 

[njames]

Well the guy sent me the wrong one funny enough, but I decided I am going to keep it. I don't really mind with either model. Awesome I appreciate it !

 

[oli700]

your good either way

 

[njames]

Well I took my Cz out for the first time today and well... I think I've fallen in love.

I've been using my XDM because of my pistols it has the greatest capacity. Now it is time to step up to a dedicated pistol for 3 gun. I was considering the EAA Match, but ran across this thread and it sounds like a CZ would be a better choice. I've read about them on their site and am thoroughly confused by the overwhelming selection Any input is appreciated.
1. Would you consider any of the models other than the 75? P07 or P09?
2. What is the Omega trigger system?
3. I read posts above recommending the safety over decocker version for competition. What about the convertible? i may end up with CGW parts. Is the convertible a "bastard" model that i can't get aftermarket trigger parts for?
4. is the best value to start with a SP 01 and do the trigger work if needed? Will I have as much or more into the mods over buying the Tactical Sport or Shadow Target II?

The CZ SP01 is also on my list. Soon.

 

[njames]

I ended up getting the sp-01 safety version and good Lord do I love this gun.
