Morning everyone.

 

[Birds Away]

Today I get to take the nearly complete twins to the range together for the first time.

 

[RustyHornet]

Twins! Ones a red head!

 

[Birds Away]

Twins! Ones a red head!

Stuff happens.

 

[RustyHornet]

Stuff happens.

Go get em tiger.

I need to slow down a little. I am averaging over 1k rounds a month.

I'll be lucky if I do 1k this year.

 

[Birds Away]

I'll be lucky if I do 1k this year.

My condolences.

 

[RustyHornet]

My condolences.

Whom I kiddin? I hang around you guys too much. I will succumb at some point, but right now it's break time. I am enjoying it, focusing on other things and actually getting stuff done! Of course it has come at a cost, I'm sure I will look back soon and realize the safe is almost empty.

 

[Birds Away]

I managed to quell my desire to add a surplus to the family. It didn't really make sense. Not that that has ever stopped me before. The thought of actually getting everything completed is now an achievable goal and I really want to get there.

 

[RustyHornet]

Goals? Ain't nobody got time for that!

 

[Birds Away]

We all have goals. They just change so fast I can't keep up with them.

Morning folks!

I seem to average about 7K a year tossed in the general direction of the target. I would love to be able to run 1K a month. I sure do wish Amazon would sell ammo. It would be nice to set up a standard monthly order that would either get shot or would build a stash. As long as I am a part of the purchasing process, it will get put off to buy other goodies.

Pre-B disassembly: The pre-B comes apart pretty much like any other 75B with the exception of the safety. When you lift the spring arm and start to slide the safety out, you need to have a tiny pin holding the detent in place or it will fly away to the nether regions of your room. You get a small drill bit and put it into the tiny hole on the safety and then wiggle the safety up and down until you feel it drop into the hole in the detent. You can feel when it drops in. Then, lift the sear spring arm and push the safety out about a 32nd of an inch. Push the pin in until it contacts the frame. Do that once or twice more to make sure that the pin protrudes well through the detent before pulling the safety out completely. Once the safety is out, push the pin in a bit more so that the safety/detent assembly is about half way down the drill bit and carefully set that aside. Other than that, the pre-B frame disassembles just like a later B. The slide is much easier to disassemble on a pre-B than on a B in that the pre-B uses a 1911 style FP stop. Just push the firing pin in and slide the stop down to remove the firing pin. I have no idea why they went to a roll pin on the later models as it makes disassembly to clean the firing pin channel a total PITA. 1911s have a FPB and yet still retain the old style plate, so I would think that CZ could have done the same thing. I am not a fan of roll pins on assemblies that need disassembled for cleaning, but I digress.

So true.... I shed a little tear as I said goodbye to my Nazi rifle yesterday. That was the second gun I ever bought. But after only putting 5 rds through it in the last two years, I cannot have a safe queen. I decided that when I go to expand on my Milsurp collection again, I will focus on US stuff only. (Crap.... that's a plan.....)

 

[Birds Away]

Sorry you had to let it go.

Morning 88.

 

[churchmouse]

Okay, I need to get this to the Wizard.

TFX-Pro sights on a CZ-2075 RAMI, SUCCESS!!!!!

Also, look at the last picture. Who has access and skills to operate a tig welder? Who doesn't need a 35 round handgun magazine?

I have a Tig but it might be a bit to hot for that work.

I have to trim the sights on the 97. They are to wide for the frame. I just did notice this when the rear came loose and slid almost out of the slot.
This is on the list of things to do gun related.

 

[churchmouse]

I want this.....I really really do. Not had anything get under my skin in a long time. This did.

If you can, save your brass. I could use it.
