Anyone here polish their CZ feed ramps?

[Metal Wonder Nine Guy]

Does anyone feel the need to polish up their CZ feed ramps up for better feeding? Or is such a move unnecessary?

Necessary or not, I polished all my CZ feed ramps to a mirror finish.  It only takes 30 seconds if you have a rotary tool with a felt wheel attached and Mothers mag polish or Flitz.

     Although I never had a feed related problem, I polished the ramp while addressing trigger problems. No regrets so far ! Out of thousands of rounds through our P07s , The wife's had two extraction problems and I had one. All three were in the same box of Field & Stream ammo that we got from Dicks on "special" . It also didn't seem as clean as other ammo we've shot either. I recovered some of the spent cases, and found a bit more "scuffing" than I'm used to seeing.

I’ve owned a lot of CZ’s and haven’t found one yet that had any feeding problems with any kind of ammo I’ve tried. Unless it was a problem, don’t see why one would feel the need, but to each their own. Unless you took off too much material, don’t see what it could hurt but I believe in “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”.

I had mine apart, so I took this pic.  Again, it takes less than a minute and does not remove any material.

I polish all  feed ramps ! And any metal-to-metal contact points.
The way I see it , any reduction of any resistance whatsoever makes for a smoother running better shooting pistol. 👍 JMHO

I don't think polishing is needed for CZ, but it's better to have mirror like ramp than not :-)
I do polish feeding ramp on ALL my pistols, I just feel better knowing there won't be feeding issues at all.

However, always check the ramp before shooting. My P-01 Omega had a very small athwart flaw  which disappeared after polishing.

Never have, I have never found it to be needed.
Just my experience.

Nope, no need.

Initially I had some feed problems on my 1st 2016 RAMI BD that has a very steep ramp angle due to compactness of this pistol. I polished the feed ramp and upper portion of chamber and problem went away.

I noticed my 2017 RAMI BD came from factory with the feed ramp polished and never had an issue with that one. My P-07's and P-09's also came from CZ with polished ramps and with 1000's of rounds NEVER a hiccup feeding anything on these. Haven't bothered polishing my CZ-75 SP-01's or P-01's also with no feed issues but I'm always careful when cleaning to buff 'em very clean with Hoppe's.

So as others have said, if you're careful polishing can't hurt.

Nope never polished a feed ramp on any of the several hundred pistols that have come and gone or currently possess.  Any feed related issues I've ever experienced were either traced to defective ammo or other gun related parts such as extractors being far too tight on 1911's or magazine defects.

I polish all of my CZ barrel feed ramps. I usually do it after i break them in while i am completing other tuning.

The only one I've polished is the UG P01.  I had occasional bullet nose (hollow points) into the feed ramp failures to feed.

Polished it mirror bright/shiny and no more issues.

I polished the ramp on my M&P. when I get time ( or bored 😆 I will do my Sig P320 and CZ P-10 C
if nothing else they will look “purdy”.
