CZ Shadow 2 - New Slide Stop Doesn't Fit
« on: January 25, 2022, 07:19:28 AM »
I wanted to get a spare slide stop for my Shadow 2, I know they have a tendency to break. 

They’re really hard to find, but I finally got my hands on one with part number 0421-0081-41ND (Product Number: 0420008004) which is supposed to be compatible with the Shadow 2 based on the parts manual here;

https://www.kilwell.co.nz/sites/default/files/files/Parts-Manual-CZ-75-Shadow-2-Black-9mm-Luger.pdf
 
It doesn’t seem to work on my Shadow 2 though, I cannot rack the slide once inserted. It moves a bit and gets stuck.   

I have attached a photo of both the original and new and you can definitely see a difference in dimensions between the two.





Anyone have any thoughts on what is the right slide stop to purchase for a Shadow 2?

Any guidance would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

Your picture did not post. But I can tell you this Eemann Tech slide stop works on my Shadow 2 Orange, but it looks like it is out of stock:

There is also an ET model w/o the "gas pedal" at that site, and appears to be in stock:

I purchased a S2 replacement slide stop from CZ Custom a few months ago, and it works fine. Here are a couple of pics.  As you can see, my original stop is pretty worn.

Thanks Rmach.  Weird, I have the very same package and part number as you.  But I notice the smaller pillar on the new slide stop is a little shorter than the original (you can see it in my pic).  It measures about 5.7mm from the base to the lip.  Whereas on the original it is closer to 7mm.  So I suspect the slide is hitting that pillar and that is why I cannot rack the slide

Item may have been mispackaged.  Call CZ Custom.
