Purchased the Kit
« on: October 26, 2014, 03:24:10 PM »
Purchased the  conversion kit today and immediately placed my Beretta kit for sale. Now I will only have the Beretta Compact after I sell the 92 lower.
The good part is I will have my 6 CZ pistols and the .22 a Conversion Kit.

From me research here, I should have very reliable firing if I use a 15# or higher main spring if my pistol is fully Cajunized?
And how is the standard and high velocity. I have plenty of standard and CCI Velociter and Stingers on hand.

I was having good luck with a 15# and the Kadet in my Cajunized 85 Combat with CCI SV.

Then I bought more of it and started having light strikes.

I went back to the stock spring, but have bought some Wolff hammer springs to soften it up a little.

I bought the hammer spring pack with all the springs in between 15# and the stock 20.

Sold the Beretta .22 Practice kit in two days. Now to sell the 92F lower. Let's see if there could be another CZ in the future.

Well I received it and fitted it to my 75BD. I also put in a CGW extended firing pin so it should work with the 13# spring. I know, no dry firing the .22.
I think I am going to get another BD so I can have a dedicated 75BD .22, like I had with my Beretta until I sold it, also so I don't have to change out the 8.5# spring.
The Beretta was a pain in the butt. It only shot without loading problems if the bullets were only lined up just right in the mag.

Firemanjones;

I had a chuckle after reading your post about buying a second BD.  I have a couple of 75Bs and the Kadet Kit took up permanent residence on one.

Yup my original CZ85B slide lives in a box now. Recently got an 85c to replace it.  ;D

Received the PCR slide stop today so here it is, P-01/Kadet.



Now I am waiting for the compact 10 round mag bases and 2 more Kadet mags with the free shipping and 15% CZ sale now going on.

Took it to the range today and it shot fantastic with the 13# spring and CGW's Kadet firing pin! I mounted it on the P-01 frame.
It was a delight to shoot this and not have any problems chambering the round like I did with the Beretta .22 practice kit. I really got frustrated with it. No more, it is sold and paid for this Kadet.

I shot CCI Velocitor left over from the Berreta. The Beretta only shot Velocitors or Stinger, and not nearly as well as the Kadet.
How is the Kadet with the cheap Federal?

With a stock hammer spring it will ignite anything.

I've not had much luck with consistent ignition with a light hammer spring in mine.

It was working well with a 15lb spring and Dave's pin, but the next batch of CCI SV started getting light hits.

I went back to the stock spring and pin, but ordered an assortment of Wolff springs to try.

It's due for a cleaning...yeah I know Joe  ;D...I'll try a 17lb spring and go back to Dave's pin.
