[RustyHornet]

HahahahahahahahahahahaNow CM and BA will be aiming for you!

And I'm still not sure what I did to deserve it.

All my parts are here all my parts are here..........

Now, to find some time.......

I am disappointed that I didn't get a chance to shoot my new CZ this weekend. I need to get out and shoot some cajunized CZ's to see what I need to have done to my 97 and SP-01.

​We tried to give you a chance.........

Hmm, if only we knew someone with some Cajunized CZs. Hmmm..........this is a puzzle.

As pissed off as I am right now, Rusty, just consider yourself a target of opportunity.

You need a hug. Don't worry, I won't leg hump. Well very long anyway...

I picked up the new (to me) CZ 75 today. This was a 'BudsGunShop' fair gun I paid $299 for. It's interesting in a couple of ways. This is a '95 transitional that has all of the B features apart from the firing pin safety. Which means, easy to change sights. It also has the same hammer spring pin lanyard like Rusty's. This gun also has the fattest grips I've seen on a 75. It feels like a Beretta in the hand. The grips measure 1.45", which is about the same as stock, but there's no contour to them, so they feel like a brick. The bore is good and the whole thing needs a good cleaning, being almost dry and dirty as delivered. The trigger feels pretty good though.

 

[Birds Away]

Dang, 88, that is LNIB. All the goodness of a B without that pesky FPB.

 

[RustyHornet]

That's got a nice patina to it. Should make a perfect candidate for a hot rod, what are your plans?

I ain't skeered. I've hung out with Skulldaddy on more than one occasion.

 

[churchmouse]

Man those folks are rough on a pistol over there.

 

[RustyHornet]

I'd be afraid to shoot that one... Looks too darn nice.

 

[Birds Away]

They sure do get their money's worth out of them.

I'm thinking my RO would look cool like that. I'll throw it in the dryer tonight to see what that does.

Better throw a load of gravel in with it.

It will knock the hell out of the dryer.....

Oh! Good idea. Then I should be able to carry it for about an hour in this heat and get her all rusted up. Then it will have that "battle warn" finish. Classies be like ate fiddy.

 

[88E30M50]

I'm not sure about what I'll do with that one. I know that I'll swap the grips out, as the ones on there feel huge to me. At the minimum, it will get fresh, light springs and an extended FP. We'll have to see about the finish though. Right now, I'm not digging the patina but maybe it will grow on me.

Speaking of what to do with a 75, I'm still struggling to get the other pre-B working well. I've gone through everything and checked the assembly and all looks good. But, I still get an occasional drop from the SA sear to the DA sear and find that if the gun is pointed normally, like while shooting, the issue happens very consistently. If I point it towards the ground, it does not happen at all.

I'm wondering if the trigger bar ears that ride on the bottom of the slide may be worn, letting the trigger bar sit a bit higher and catching the disconnector when the SA trigger drops. The old hammer required more travel to disengage the taller hammer hooks and that additional travel may be enough to push the trigger bar down below the DA sear surface on the disconnector. I'm not sure where to go right now and may try to build the surface up on the trigger bar somehow to see if that makes a difference. If it does, I'll spend the $69 for a new trigger bar. I'd rather not throw that money at the issue until I'm more confident it will help.
