Title: Question about the original 75 Shadow
Post by: TheRealFolkBlues on November 16, 2019, 05:06:12 AM

Came across a 75 Shadow on the local classifieds that looks identical to the one in the pic below, only difference being a standard ring hammer.

Were these particular guns worked over by CZ Custom or were these essentially just factory 75s without a firing pin block (i.e. with a non-tuned, grittier factory trigger)?

Yes, factory guns not CZC tuned. I believe the hammer was a slightly improved version but not on the same level as a comp hammer. Might or might not be gritty.

I have one. Basicly they are close to the same internally as the sp-01 shadow which is factory. I have both. From what I have read they cz champion hammers in them. Both mine have very good triggers.

Biggest difference is weight since SP01 Shadow has rail and 75 Shadow does not.
