New Rami BD

[PappaWheelie]

Huh...maybe the SP-01 barrel is different from other CZ75s? I don't know, I was comparing my Rami and P-01 barrels, and not only is the Rami feed ramp shorter (and blunt at the bottom) compared to my P-01, but it seems to be at a slightly steeper angle than the P-01 if you put the photos up side by side:

I agree they do appear to be different angles in your pics! So evidently the P-01 IS different from the SP-01. Sounds like we need someone with a broader array of the CZ75 series to help nail down what is typical from what is the exception, preferably with ramp-to-ramp matchups like

or the like. rdcinhou are you listening?
The P-01 being the latest evolution of the series (and having aced the NATO trials) it may be the outlier.

I have had the RAMI a while now. I put in the CGW carry kit and shined everything up lightly and now have somewhere around 15,000 rounds through it. I kind of stopped keeping close track after 10k. The only breakdown was a broken trigger return spring at about 5k rounds live and even more dry fire (I don't remember exactly). Went to order a $2 trigger spring and ended up with $200 worth of CGW parts. Only other issue I ever had was at an IDPA match, the slide only had light oil on it and it just wanted to hang up. Found after using some light molly grease on the rails I never had a problem again. I call it my oil burner, it always needs good lube.

The Alien Gear cloak tuck III IWB has been my holster for close to 3 years now and I wear it every day from waking to bed time. I'd buy another one in a heartbeat.

However, recently I have a new issue developing with it that I am going to start a new thread for. Trigger is smooth as butter since the CGW kit and polish, but now, it sometimes hangs up and feels like I am pulling the trigger on a gun with the safety on, but it is a decocker model. It always fires, but the pull is really hard. Then another pull will be too light. There have been thousands of perfect trigger pull rounds through it since the CGW kit, so I don't believe it has anything to do with that, but I will need to find out. It never does it in dry fire, only live. Something is moving out of place it feels like.

That is a strange problem.  I don't think I've ever heard of anything like that on any pistol.  Start a new thread, I'd be interested in learning what the problem is when you figure it out.

I think maybe next month I'll get the CGW Pro-package for mine.  So far only about 400 round down range but I really like the rami.  I wish someone made better sights for it, and a flat trigger.  My old eyes have a hard time picking up that stock front sight and I've never liked 3 dot sight anyway.  Most of my other pistols have the iDot Pro sights with the orange ring, and flat triggers.

I put a Dawson fiber optic on my front sight, helped a lot. The stock night sights are just a muddy gray in daylight. I put the TRUGLO TFX Pro Tritium/Fiber-Optic Day/Night Sights on my SP-01 and wish I could get them for the RAMI. Very nice sights.

I was just checking out the Dawson fiber optic sight.  I've never used fiber optic sights.  Does the front sight catch your eye good?  Are you using the red or green fiber?  From what I've read the fiber works great in the daytime, but of course useless at night.  If I go that route I'll just have to make sure I don't carry the rami after dark.

The P=01 being the latest evolution of the series (and having aced the NATO trials) it may be the outlier.

Among those three, the Rami, P-01 and SP-01, in addition to different barrel lengths, they each have unique shapes and characteristics. For example, the Rami has no upper lug on the barrel, while the P-01 has one and the SP-01 has two, along with slightly different feed ramp angles and shapes.

Of course, the Rami has what looks like the steepest feed ramp of the three, plus that blunt area at the bottom of the feed ramp, almost a right angle to the oncoming  bullet tip being fed into the chamber, which is where some of these flat nosed HPs and FMJ seem to get hung up. I've used stiffer mag springs on the Rami, +5% and +10%, which help, but do not cure the problem completely. Again, this is a problem that developed on my pistol after several thousand rounds, using new outer recoil springs every 500 rounds or so (but still using the same inner recoil spring for several thousand rounds).

A new inner recoil spring assembly is definitely stiffer than one with thousands of rounds cycled with it. I suspect that the worn inner recoil spring may be interfering with the normal timing of feeding rounds and cycling the slide, causing the bullet tips to jam into the flat bottom of the feed ramp. Will have to test my theory with a new set of springs next time at the range.
