The CZickness #XIV....It continues

[Hoosier45]

I love the Kadet kit that I have on one of my P07s. I probably shoot that gun better than a lot of others simply because I run a lot of .22lr through it and have just gotten a feel for the thing. I've taken it out to MCFG and put 100 rounds through it, then swapped slides with the .40 slide and ran a box of .40 just as well as I did the .22lr. It would be great if every gun had that option. I've been toying with the Advantage Arms kit for my G23.

I have a 22 conversion kit for a 1911. I bought it to save money and shoot more. But I never felt like it helped me that much. I just felt like I was shooting a big 22. Maybe I would have better luck with a Kadet kit.

It is. It's the Tactical version though, so it has a decocker. If I decide to let it go, I'll PM you. I've been trying to figure out what role it plays in the collection now that the Phantom is here.

Awesome that's the one I want. I dont like external safeties. Thanks man

 

[Trigger Time]

Wow CM I'm impressed

 

[Hoosier45]

It is. It puts the hurt on them with a quickness.

I use my drill to hang pictures and fix small things. If there's framing to be done, it's impact time.

This is a very painting centric day for me. Need some GPT as the only thing I've shot today was the color coat on the son's new front valance. Since then, I've been helping the wife paint the upstairs bathroom. That's a little room with lots of tight corners and is a royal PITA. Almost done though.

I need to figure out what to do with the SP01 Tactical. I could move it on when the next shiny thing pops up but I know that with the right work, that could be a stellar performer. But, if I'm going to put money into a gun, it will probably be the Phantom right now. That one is doing nightstand duty now days.

I have both and love both. The Phantom is light enough to carry but still shoots like a range gun. I do appreciate the extra weight of the SP-01 at the range. I have a standard SP-01, so no decocker. I like the safety at the range, because my right thumb rides the top of the safety when I grip.

Spent the day doing various things around the house. Did weed eating of the back yard, sprayed weeds in the front yard, used my power sprayer to clean the front and one side of the house and am now indoors relaxing.

I'm the same. If I have the choice between an external safety on a gun or a decocker, I'll take a safety most of the time. Like you, I prefer to ride the safety with my thumb.

I'm guessing you have a lot of time with a 1911 in your background?

It really helps working in a trigger. I also use it to train new shooters, they don’t develop a flinch with it, then they progress to the 9mm. It help me with trigger control...

Thanks for the tip. I'll check one out.

1. Someone say SP-01 Tactical?
2. Isn't that the one that is 41 ozs. that I'm looking for?

I got my P-07 trigger feeling very good by installing the CGW kit and then shooting the crap out of it with the .22 Kadet kit on the gun. Can get a lot of trigger pulls in, bullets down range and it’s cheap.

3. Someone recommended that I get a Kadet Kit for my Omega since they know I love my .22LRs (with would work on a SP-01 75 as well, I believe).

4. I have one for my Glock 26, but it doesn't do anything for me compared to my other dedicated .22LR semi-autos, and don't think I'll mess with it for a long while and probably should sell it for $200 (be cool if I could trade for a Kadet kit for the CZ, with money on my part, to see if it was any more stimulating than the A.A. kit on the Glock, which is too light and too small to be fun with .22 rounds (imo).

5. You are right. Since you have the Phantom, the Tactical has to go.
6. 2nd dibs on the Tactical.
7. I have a wonderful FNS Longslide that I would trade toward it.

I've only been shooting for ~5 years, but I've shot a lot of 1911's and riding the thumb safety feels very natural for me. It helps that I'm comfortable doing so as the safety on my S&W Victory is so touchy that it's easily engaged on accident. If I don't ride the safety I end up having to stop shooting because it came on due to the slight recoil during shooting. PITA but a non-issue when riding the safety with my thumb.

Oh my! I might need a minute.

Definitely black.

Black screws. Those wood grips are very nice. I like the look of those, with the black of the gun. Very nice.
