My new Orange
« on: November 08, 2021, 07:53:03 PM »
Just picked up my new Shadow 2 Orange. Holy Cow talk about tight! So, new to it and was hopeing to field strip and remove factory grease. Could barely move the slide! Read the manual, interesting way to do a slide release (used to Sig 320's). Finally got it off. Now how to remove the barrel bushing? Ok, finally figured that out and thanks to all those people who put you tube videos out there! Barrel finally out, grease removed, cleaned and lubed. Took me an hour and I'm not proud of that! But, no blood spilled, and the slide moves easier, that hand fitting, really close tolerances!!! So, few dry fires, racking and off to the range! Wahooo!!

I'm sure you'll love the new Orange. Great competition gun.

If you remove the recoil spring first, removing the bushing is very easy. Just turn it with your fingers and pull it out. No wrench required.

My S2 Orange is a tack driver!  Most accurate out-of-the-box factory pistol I've encountered!


Put some rounds down range and the action will smooth out further!


Congratulations on your purchase!

Another 100+ round thru it today. Moved target to 15 yards. This is stupid accurate for a middle of the road shooter. Will post pics when I learn how!
