The CZickness VI

[Birds Away]

Out of the box, I would say YES, the Omega triggers are better than the standard CZ factory triggers. That said, I'm comparing a P-07 with the Omega setup vs. a standard P-01, and this has been a few years back. I haven't shot a newer Omega lately, so I can't say that they are any different now than a few years ago. With an Omega trigger, other than adding the extended CGW firing pin, and maybe a trigger return spring, I think you could live quite happily with an Omega CZ without going full Cajun on the gun. If you get the Omega P-01, I don't think it would be an unreasonable decision to shoot the snot out of it, and then Cajonize it after a part finally fails.

IMO, a factory Omega setup can't hold a candle to a CZ that's been Cajonized. Likewise, according to The Wizard and others on here, an Omega setup is easier/less costly to Cajonize, and the results are just as nice.

Nailed it.

Man, I used to be way ahead in this game.

Well, it's Thursday. Good reason to buy another gun.

I won't be getting any new ones for quite a while.

At least no one got quite as sick as I am.

No reason to, there are plenty of used ones out there.

I have two to pay off.

To the surplus compacts have the same internals as the pre B 75's?

2, 3, 8... What's the difference?

To my limited knowledge, I believe all compacts are "B".

Thanks. That was my general understanding. I just sent an email to CZ-USA asking if they had any idea when the P-01 Omegas would be in the US in any numbers. Hopefully they have an answer for me. I can wait a little while but if they tell me 6 months or something I just don't think I can wait that long.

I have not seen a pre-B compact yet. I know they made them but I have not run across one. I would really like to, though.

I do need to keep my eyes open for a surplus compact. I need to let the gun funds recover a bit after this morning though. I'm planning on taking my Ed Brown down to USDS to put on consignment and when that sells, the gun fund will be restored.

Rusty, I don't think you'll have too much competition in the ugly gun contest. I might bring my patina rich Remington Rand 1911 to the shoot. I don't think it will give your fugly gun much competition, but it is close.

Please bring that! I'd love to shoot it.
