P01 Omega dehorn??
« on: January 30, 2020, 05:31:46 PM »
  So I finally bought a P01 Omega. I've taken care of most of the new CZ protocols (polishing of parts, bending of spring, lots of dryfire with snap cap and o-ring). The trigger is getting really nice, after a couple hundred rounds and the at least a thousand dryfires. Planning on a kit from Cajun when I can afford anything again.

  Has anyone here dehorned the decocker and slide release levers? If so, any problems? I find them to be sharp and uncomfortable with my grip and painful after a lot of shooting. I was thinking of hand filing at least the first "tier" off and rounding a little. I have no trouble with the slide release or decocker as far as being to hard to use so I don't think taking off a little material will affect function for me. Most likely get the parts cerakoted when I get them where I like them. The decock lever on the right side might get even more removal done as I don't see myself using it.

Do they really bother you? P-01 Omega has one of the most flat levers  :o
However taking off a little of material shouldn't be a problem.
I did some removal from inside slide release lever to make take town easier and auto slide closing after mag inserting. So I guess dehorn outside shapes will be even easier.

My first 1911 had dehorn procedure done on safety levers. After re coating all looked perfect. (job done by gunsmith).

  I'm used to the P07/P09 controls, they are much flatter than the ones on my P01. I've carried the 07 for years. No sharp edges on the decocker or slide release...

oh.. that make sense...
So like I mentioned, that shouldn't be a problem, especially when you re-coat them.
