The CZickness XIII: Lucky 13, we could all use some.

[churchmouse]

Don't cheat me, the weather channel says 50 for today. 48 must be for the west side.

Have a safe trip.

Hey I will take the extra 2* if it comes.

Congrats. I didn't realize that kit didn't include the race hammer.

Good morning gang. BA - you're right, the ultra-lite kit is what I kind of consider the least-common denominator for CGW upgrades. This is what it includes:



I went with the blue hammer spring vs. the black as it sets off all primers I've used it with in the boy's 75 Compact so far. It also has the extended firing pin + reduced power spring, new roll pin, and reduced power firing pin block spring. The only thing it doesn't have that I'll address separately when the time comes is the floating trigger pin and upgraded trigger return spring.

For $49 + shipping + about half an hour of installation time, this kit is a no-brainer IMHO.

Cool.

Here in the real world.
0900 and the oatmeal with apples, walnuts, blackberries, and brown sugar is delish.

Off to the hardware next for plumbing parts.

This is all that I have installed in my Compact Franken CZ. I have modified the stock hammer by reducing the hammer hook height from .040 to .009 to give it the same break as a CGW race hammer. It has a SA of 2.8 lbs. and DA at 5.8 lbs.

With the install of a different washer at the daughters today I may well be going myself.

Out for a walk!

Ugh...I had to replace a flapper in a Kohler toilet - ended up having to order it online as none in stock would fit. Things used to be so simple...

Waiting on my son to arrive so we can roll out.

My mind is weighing out so many possibility's.

What is next.

It's a great morning for a walk

Oh man, don't even get me started. Picked up a toilet for my master bath a few years ago that I had to get rid of, because the internals were not like any other and they phased them out. Even with more "common" models it's not as simple as it used to be...

I really want to explore hammer mods. I've cut a couple down but have not taken them far enough to be happy with the results

Nice! While the ultra-lite kit doesn't result in what you did for the P-01 (and many others on here) with a full-on massage, it still provides outstanding improvements over the stock setup. And really interesting what you did to slightly alter the geometry on the stock hammer hook. That's pretty ingenious.

All this talk about parts, plus MM and ChrisK talking about their RAMIs, has me seriously thinking this morning about trading out my P30SK for a RAMI. I'll have to do some investigating when we get back from church, but I don't think weight/size will be much different with the chunky RAMI vs. the overbuilt HK.

 

[db1959]

Here's my small CZ family. That damned H&K had to join the group. Maybe it identifies as a CZ

The P09 has been cajunized by the wizard.

 

[GregD]

You will get the family together soon.

Looks like winter is returning for the week...rain/snow mixes 30's and 40's...at least in the NE quadrant on the State. Probably sunny and 70 at the southern border.

No, still kinda cold.

 

[MindfulMan]

Although the RAMI is somewhat chunky, and the PCR felt a bit better in my hand .... what I appreciated about the RAMI was the versatility.
As I mentioned, I have a couple of PCR sized pistols. The Sig 229 comes to mind, and is already a massive favorite of mine.

Versatility !

*(set-up for taking the grandkids to a movie matinee in Carmel)

*(set-up for going to W. Washington St. in Indianapolis at midnight )

Of course, some time down the road, I still might have to purchase a PCR .... just because !

That's a great setup and I do see the versatility of the Rami over the larger P01 or CPR platforms

Thanks, 88' !
