P07 Advanced Carry Gun Project

Owner of another forum I belong to mentioned (awhile back) that when his (in California) department issued S&W 686's he took his to a gunsmith a lot of the other officers used to have it slicked up. 

Then when they had to turn in the 686's and go to a 9MM S&W semi-auto he took that to a gunsmith and had it slicked up, too.  Used to be okay.  Might still be in some departments/areas.

I'm a little sceptical about changing action in CCW. I've talked with few self-defense attorneys and all of them have said that every prosecutor is going to show the jury that you turned the gun the into killing machine 

Sorry. Your attorney friends can say whatever they want. That doesn't make it true.

Thousands of legal shoots with guns of every description. If the shoot was justified under the law (your, or yours, life was in danger) then there have been zero legal repercussions. This proved by a search of the LexisNexis trial database.

This internet rumor ranks right up there with using your own reloads. A legal use of a firearm is just that... a legal use of a firearm.

Now gentlemen, get this thread back on topic.

Of the CGW items you mentioned I would avoid the SS guide rod and recoil spring change.  If you Google around a bit you'll find a number of threads where people have reported that change actually increases the weight compared to the factory captured guide rod the P07 now comes with.  Purportedly, the CGW items were released when the P07 was highly oversprung using the blue recoil spring while the newer captured one that CZ now uses may be 13#.

I had bought those parts myself but later came across the various threads so never put them in my P07.

 A quick update:  I installed the OEM captured guide rod/spring assembly instead of the CGW guide and 15# spring. The gun shot completely reliably this past weekend. It wasn't a ton of rounds, just 100 rounds of CCI Blazer Brass 147gr shooting suppressed. However, that was the same as the first time I shot it and I had zero malfunctions this time.
