Title: Manually decocking a RAMI
Post by: Boyshkin on September 18, 2018, 12:56:23 PM
Just picked up a Safety model RAMI (was available) I plan to carry it OWB 3 O'Clock with a chambered round. Thoughts/opinions?

After learning more about the "D" version, I'm so glad I accidentally bought the Safety version.
From what I now understand, the trigger pull is much smoother, easier to modify (Cajunize) and most importantly, you can fully decock which you cannot do with the decocker version.
Am I understanding this properly?

The D model can be manually decocked all the way if one so chose.
    OP, nothing wrong with your choice. That?s just it, it?s a choice. Some prefer the safety model, some prefer the decocker, and some of us could only find the decocker when Ramis were un-obtainium and jumped on the first model they could find. [emoji6]

I actually wanted the Decocker, but was only able to get the Safety version. Guess I'm just justifying my purchase. Either way, it's a pretty cool little brother to my Tactical sport orange.

I have both models I bought the standard first then after looking for almost 2 years I found the BD.  My BD has a much better D/A and is the best shooter of the two.  Buy several outer recoil springs and change springs when it starts tossing brass into the next county.

Well, I have to rethink everything I said. The company I ordered from, shipped me the Decocker version, I guess by mistake. So.......

Lucky you the decocker and free night sights I'd say you got a $50 upgrade for free.

I saw your other thread, and I think depending on perspective, you ended up generally landing on the better end of that transaction by a pretty wide margin.  The D versions are somewhat difficult to find on the regular...but that aside...to address the overall question for those who may read this thread...

There is nothing wrong with a couple of things discussed there from a manual decocking perspective, so perhaps I can address them individually.

1:) Manual decocking vs safety (or some combination thereof).  I have a Shadow Line Compact, which conceptually is the same firing manual of arms as the Rami 2075.  There is NO issue with decocking, but one must be very safety oriented, and not assume the safety features will save you if you make a mistake.  Now my pistol has no firing pin block...so the stakes are slightly higher....but fundamentals are fundamentals.  Always point in a safe direction, grip hammer on both sides firmly (or youtube the rolling thumb method), depress the trigger, and slowly lower the hammer to rest lightly at the pin, or depress the trigger, release the trigger, and lower to the first safety notch (hammer remains at partial cock, the same position in fact that a decocker lowers it to).  Slow...deliberate...safe.  Anything less, if you are lucky its a hole in the wall/floor.  If not, the stake only rise from there.

2: Safety notch vs. full decock.  I will not get into to the grand debate over which is safer or less safe, and/or why....because CZ makes it perfectly clear in both instructions as well as in functional practice that EITHER method is safe, and none is preferred over the other.  I will say that because my pistol has no firing pin block, that I chose personally to manually decock to the safety notch...because pressing and then releasing the trigger immediately while lowering will bring the hammer to rest on that notch....and I don't like the idea that if I make a mistake that there is NO safety net for me at all.  See above notes around vigilance and taking time, and I do, but I want as many ways to keep that hammer from hitting the pin when unintended as possible.

At any rate....I always have my eyes open for a 2075BD locally....and I will likely jump on one when available....though I am not 100% sure what role it will really fill over my SLC (it's still not single-stack concealable or really pocket-worth IMO)...but I just kinda want one...so there it that!

I also don't have a practical reason for buying my new RAMI. I just think it's freaking cool, and I deserve it.

I have a tough time finding a
 reason for almost every one I own and my Pony 42 is over filled already.
