Good luck CM, and remember you are retired!

Commander will be fine when I get the broken tap out of it.
Yesterday was one of those days. I should have not attempted to do anything except sit quietly by myself in a dim light.
Everything I "Tried" to do ended badly.

Yeah that is a good point.

Some things are best left to professionals.

Man, that sucks. Hopefully, it comes out cleanly. I've buggered a few holes up with taps before. That's the quickest way I know to suck the energy out of a project.

Today has been another pretty good day. I won an auction last night and, today, the FFL went through on the first try and the seller was a business that actually had some customer service skills.

I just found a 4-40 plug tap in stock and it is in hand.
Now, warming the shop up and will see if I can get the broken one out.........

Good luck.

OK....I removed the broken tap from the middle hole. Not as hard as some I have dealt with.

As built for the spouse.



The fasteners provided are always to long.....



There is a time and place for a Dremel.....



Tapping the holes with a much better tool.



Finished. Now she can do her laser point and shoot drills.

Glad to hear that it all came out well CM. The finished product looks good.

Morning folks! I need , but can't do the caffine due to high blood pressure. Ugh!



All of my CZs were manual safety style until I bought the 40P off of WTB. BA is right, they are more of a PITA to work on, but that really does not cost you much if you are smart and have the Wizard do your tuning for you. Right now, my thought is that any new CZ will be a decocker style. The shape of the CZ safety does not inspire confidence in my ability to flick it off if needed. The decocker solves that issue for me.



This is what I do when I carry my non-decoker CZs. Once tuned, the trigger pull from the half cock notch is quite good.



I wish there was an extended, paddle style safety option for a CZ as there is on 1911s. All of my carry 1911s have the big safety and I've practiced with it enough to make flicking it off second nature. If I did not have 1911s, I'd probably be happier with the CZ safety, but I'm too used to the big paddle safety on the 1911 and am not confident that I'd hit the smaller safety on the CZ as well.

I've been playing around with it quite a bit, and was thinking I would carry safety off and half cock. The safety is not as positive as I'm used to. I like it to pop when I flip it off or on. The CZ does not do that. All those pictures of the Rami are making me want one. lol I think I will look up the wizard in a couple months.

Damn CM, that thing has come a long way from stock! Lots of love has gone into that one, blood, sweat and tears on my end.... Looks good!

All that remains is the slide/frame/slide stop/thumb safety.
Everything else is after market pieces.
Lots of love in this.
I pushed to get it as I appreciate what you put into it. It is beautiful.
Less is sometimes more.

I have the green laser in place. Spouse likes to use it for point and shoot drills while she developes the muscle memory/skill sets for self defense.

Ever since shooting T Dogg's and then my son's P320, I've been thinking that one of those needs to follow me home some day. The P320 in .45 is a seriously sweet gun.
