The CZickness V

[Birds Away]

Thanks for the warning. I like S&B, but will steer clear based off of your recommendation. Federal and Blazer Brass (or Speer Lawman) seem to work fine, so I'll stick with those

I have had issues with S&B and Fiocchi and 11# mainsprings.

That's why I post here first if I have no experience with a particular ammo in a cajunized CZ

I ran some S&B thru both of my Cajunized CZ's with no issues

Do you know what mainspring you're using? The 11# or 13# springs?

I'll have to check

It would be interesting if the ammo worked in my cajunized CZ's. I just liked the idea of running Czech ammo through my CZ's....

Ok, you no longer have to use your imagination.... This thing is hefty! Could easily knock someone out.

I'm gonna have to put it on a scale... Should feel like shooting a 22.

Im running stock recoil springs in both Cajunized guns.(P-01 and RAMI) Ran great in my stock Phantom..

It's the mainspring that makes the difference. A 11# or less mainspring will have trouble igniting harder primers.

My P-01 and RAMI have the 13 lb hammer spring installed..

Then you should have no problem with any primers.

I can understand going to a lighter hammer spring in a target gun but in a self-defense gun I personally prefer a little stronger spring so I have no problems with any primer. I do enjoy a light trigger in a target gun like the Wizard stuck in my hand to try...

I use 11# mainsprings in all of my guns. The ammo is well tested and I have no worries.

Guilty as charged.

Pardon me guys. I was wondering if I could sneak a question in? I have never had a pistol with a decocker. I bought my CZ 75 compact with the regular safety. Do most of you carry a pistol with a decocker? Always having revolvers and 1911 type pistols, I just got used to dropping the hammer the old fashioned way. I am thinking about adding a Rami and thought I would get your opinions.

I don't use either device. I always manually drop the hammer. It's just a habit I don't think about anymore. The decockers are slightly more difficult to work on. Other than that, I see no real difference unless you plan on carrying cocked and locked. I carry everything at half cock.

I never have gotten completely comfortable with a de-cocker. 1911 guy as well.
Just make sure it is pointed safely if you us the function.
