CZ Shadow 2 Kadet Rear Sight Replacement
« on: July 23, 2019, 11:48:00 AM »
I am looking to mount an optics on my Shadow 2 Kadet conversion kit. I don't want to get the slide milled. What options do I have for the rear sight replacement? As in what other CZ's have the same rear sight dimensions? I'm thinking I could get a dovetail mount for the optic, Only I don't know what rear sights are a match to the Shadow 2 Kadet conversion kit.

I was looking into something similar and I think the Henning shadow 2 mount may work but not positive on that. Maybe call them to confirm



What I would be worried about is the slide not  functioning properly with the extra weight.

All Shadows use the same dovetail. 
When did it change from "We the people" to "screw the people"?

Why use 911 when it's faster to use 1911 or 9mm?

I called CZ USA and they confirmed that Shadow 2 sights should fit the Shadow 2 Kadet. Also I just noticed that my kadet has the identical rear sight as my Shadow 2 (Side-by-Side, Stare and Compare). What I found when trying to install the Shadow 2 Dovetail mount from EGWGuns.com (FYI..Great Customer Service) the top of the slide to the bottom of the dovetail on the kadet is higher than that of the Shadow 2. On the front side, the backside looks to be the same. Sent an email to Eric @ CZ customs. Hopefully he will be able to help me. I will update the thread when I get additional info.
