CZC A01 or TS2 barrel in Shadow 2
« on: November 30, 2022, 08:14:29 PM »
It looks like the outer barrel diameter is the same between the A01, TS2 and Shadow 2.  Will one of those longer barrels work with the Shadow 2?

The standard and threaded A01 barrels, with OD of ~ 0.55" will work. I have not seen TS2 barrel, but if it's the same as TS, it will work. 
Both will stick out up front.

Thanks for confirming.

I'm tempted to try the A01 barrel because it's in stock.  But I don't want a gap.  I broke down and ordered a Barsto threaded. Would have gone with the CZC Shadow 2 barrel if it was in stock.

Edit - I got the A01 barrel.  This will allow more comps to work with my gun.

Edit 2 - Here it is in the gun.

The extra gap allows for compatibility with Glock compensators.  I did a lot of searches online and there are essentially no comps specifically made for the S2.  I could see adding a bit of a shroud at the end of the comp to cover up the gap.

freaking sweet!
what load do you shoot with that thing?
I tried a very similar path with my SP-01 but the comp always twisted out of time what the major loads.
looks sick! congrats!

I probably won't shoot it with the comp till sometime next year.  I need to make sure all my other upgrades didn't affect the reliability.  This is just a range toy so I'm taking things slow.

I got the BarSto today and it's not working as a drop in barrel.  The slide won't go into battery and I had to tap it with a mallet to get it out.  There are a few machine marks as well.  It's advertised as a semi fit so I'm not saying it's defective.  But just wanted to let people know the barrels from CZC seem to be higher quality and are true drop ins.  Go with CZC if you are lucky enough to find one in stock.

thanks for letting us know. Fitting a barrel is a fun ordeal. I love the smell of Dychem! and the color too

I'm not giving up though as soon as I get paid I have another bright idea that may keep me from having to spend $$$ on factory racegun CZs...

Been so busy I haven't shot it yet, work is crazy right now.

A silicon/rubber o ring might help keep things in place. Something like this:

Other o rings will do just fine, but make sure anything you get can stand high heat.

Last resort is red loctite on the barrel thread, but then removing the comp is a huge pain.
