cool gun, dig the blue and the mod parts. That weight is for CO right?

I just talked to the local shop where I have a 97B on order, but I just saw the review and price of the SARS K12 and they said it would be easier to get one of those than the CZ. The wait is on...
SARS importer is actually right here in Alabama!

Yes. The weight was for the original CO limit of 45 oz. after having it milled last year, USPSA increased the weight limit to 59 oz so the shadow 2 OR will make it.

the S2O owners have demand so apparently..
The shop guy on Friday said that CZ is only 6% behind Glock in general US marketshare. Holy Crap! I'm goad I got aboard the train a few years ago...
Does that sound right to you guys, He said all the others are a distant 3rd... Its just Glock CZ and others...

Shot the new bag bases today. The stock SP-01 mags, while fitting one more round, seem to hang up with the longer open rounds a bit and also don't lock the slide on last shot. The 17Rd mecgar mags with new bases run 23 rounds. Only got to try a couple mags, so more to come.

USPSA equipment survey for guns used had the following percentages:

2019

Brand prevalence: SIG 35%, CZ 22%, Glock 18%

Model prevalence: 320X5 21%, Shadow 2 15%, G34 14%.

Optic prevalence: DPP 33%, Romeo 1 24%, SRO 15%.


2018

Brand prevalence: SIG 30%, CZ 28%, Glock 16%.

Model prevalence: 320X5 16%, Shadow 2 12%, G34 9%.

Optic prevalence: DPP 33%, Romeo 1 28%, Venom 10%.


CZ is ahead of Glock but Sig is way ahead of both.

I bought the Mec-Gar +2 mags.  I've found them as cheap as $22 per mag.

https://shop.keelyarms.com/products/magazines-mec-gar-mgcz7519dps-765595515116-3791

Yes but shipping is $12

Sportsman's Guide has them for $27 each (for members) and free shipping for orders over $49.


Am I the only one that opens boxes like this:

Is the butter knife in case the sword can't do it?

I highly recommend buying your mags from Greg Cote. He’s local to me and I had been to his office to pick the mags I ordered from his website.

He’s a great person to deal with and will buy everything I need magazine wise.
