KMR W-02 UMBRA review (with pictures) vs. Shadow 2

[timmy75]

I learned (and it shows in the first video) that the 2024 floating trigger pin doesn't fit earlier models - it is slightly thicker. In order to use it, the trigger would have to be changed and the trigger pin hole in the frame drilled out a bit.

Yes, the new models have a 3.0mm hole for the trigger pin, while the older ones have a 2.2mm hole.

Here is a review in Serbian. The Umbra X is a lightened version of the Umbra for IDPA (lighter slide and slightly shortened frame), featuring a semi-flat trigger and an elevated safety.

I sold my L-02 Spectra after 7200 rounds. It will serve a fellow IPSC competitor. Going to buy a 2024 W-02 Umbra OR, if one can be obtained   I shot a couple of level 1's with my CZ Shadow 1 with iron sights and I will not go back to iron sights

Otherwise might go Arma Zeka AZ-P1 Sport OR but then all my CZ75 magazines will become useless and it has only two magazines included, which are pretty proprietary and not all that available.

Received my 2024 W-02 Umbra OR.

First impressions! The fit and finish is the same outside with the same tight fit, but there seems to be slight cutting of corners on the inside. The non-sliding surfaces inside of the slide and frame dust cover isn't as finely machined as my 2023 L-02 and are left with a more coarse texture, like CZ Shadow 1/2. The now-factory 3mm floating trigger pin stays put - doesn't want to wiggle itself out as it happened to my aftermarket floating pin. The factory trigger return spring is quite light, maybe a bit too light. The L-02 had a very heavy spring, which I replaced with a lighter one. The amount of trigger pretravel is the same, the trigger break point is the same, reset distance is the same. Will look whether the disconnector is different a bit later.
