Im training almost daily with my new cz sp01shadow at first i have a few stoppages with reloads but after 2000 rounds its working perfect even with not so good shells .Im even carrying it in my vest during my tact med courses .My daily carrying gun is a GLOCK 22 40SW but this pistol its extremely accurate and the best for ipsc production class.

Juan, just how accurate is "extremely accurate"? Any 25 yard targets?
Peter.

Peter i didnt shot it from a bench yet ,but its easy to put all the shots in the 10 ,and 9 ,zones in an olympic free pistol target at 25 mts .I used it in my tact med courses and you can pput the shots at 100 mts in a pepper popper easily .I have the fabric target 1 inch at 25 mts.

Thanks Juan! Wink, on a different forum, here on AR, referred to a CZ SP01 called the "Mamba". Ever heard of it? Wink is in France. I would be interested in seeing how your Shadow shoots off the bench.
Peter

Knowing Juan as I do I am sure he does not exaggerate on this new pistol. Juan shoots more than most chaps I know and shoots exceedingly well. My CZ75 is very accurate as well, and I believe the new SP01 will outperform it. The only thing I believe I can outperform him in is eating costillas.....

It may be that the Mamba version of the SP01 is a custom version only sold by Frankonia, a franco-german company. It starts out as a SP01 and a couple of changes and add-ons (like aluminum grip panels, a different rear sight, maybe some Angus Hobdell inspired CZ custom shop trigger parts, etc). Here's a link to the vendor's web site (for those who speak French By the way, the web site says they are sold out, it must have been a limited edition that everybody liked.

If I were in the US I think I would want to look at the CZ Custom Shop Single Action model before making a final decision.

Thanks Wink! I might be interested in a "target" CZ75 if it had fully adjustable target type sights. The Custom shop link you posted shows Novak sights that I do not believe are fully adjustable. I might just have to find a S&W 952!

Your wish is CZ's command:

Peter, you've got to stop looking for excuses not to buy one! S&W? Not even close.

Damn, Wink, where do you find this stuff? Nice looking gun. Now I just need to find a distributor to sell it to me for less than MSRP. Having said that, the S&W does have a reputation for accuracy!
Peter.

Peter, you might try Angus Hobdel. He is a distributor for all CZ pistols and sometimes has some very good deals.

Thanks Larry, I will. I sent CZ an email but have heard nothing back in several days.
