You're talking about a 75B S/A, which means it must (by IDPA rules) compete in the Enhanced Service Pistol Division.  That's not a problem, and ESP is even more lenient than SSP with regard to modifications. 

But still check with both of the sources metioned to get a "drop in" part -- as it'll be easier to install (whether you do it, or have a local gunsmith to do it.)

Not to hijack, but what's needed for the old style 75B with the perfect circle?

I was thinking of just getting an extra and milling it flat, then D/T it for some type of paddle (Not necessarily the S2 style paddle as I understand they are adjustable with a pin and thus more work/PIA)

thx.

Just need to take a extended d style like the shadow or the shadow 2 and cut the smaller half circle off. You just need to fit the safety for the left side of the gun.

Ahh, Never thought of that, should be much easier than what I had in mind. I have a new extended safety that I haven't installed yet, so I might just wait and do them both at the same time. I also have the adjustable sear installed already.

Taking a closer look at the gun, I'm now 50-50 on modifying the frame (old std perfect circle style) to accept the S2 mag release vs. modifying the slidestop to fit it. The right side is already done, so it would just be the left side that needs modified, right? I could use the other side as a guide, and just drill/dremel/file it out to fit. Is there anything else to look for modifying the frame to do this? The frame is nothing special old 75B. Either way S2 mag release should be here next week.
Edit- Dang - the S2 mag release is out of stock in both places

Ok I read the rules and they are alittle vague but here goes.My CZ since its a Single Action model would fall in ESP div.Anything basically goes.

Agreed.

IN SSP under modifications #3.Mag releases may be used as long as they are Drop in replacement parts
And it must come stock from the factory on another SSP legal firearm.
