Blue vs Orange....and then a SP-01....
« on: September 19, 2021, 08:51:17 AM »
Can anyone tell me the accuracy difference between the Shadow Blue and Orange?

Advantages/Disadvantages between Blue and a SP-01?  How much has to be spent in the SP-01 to get it to the Blue level?  Can the SP-01 ever reach Orange status?

And the reason is ....LGS has a non optic ready Blue in stock and that got my wallet thinking....... ;)

For accuracy, on a 1-10 scale, I would rate the S2O a 10 and the Blue a strong 8. The SP-01 is not in their league.

I have both Orange and Blue, the Orange has a better trigger, but my Orange came from CGW, so not a fair comparison. Blue is way better than regular stock CZ's.

Bought and sold and S2 to then do a full build on a stock SP-01 with CGW parts. Never looked back, waaay better than S2s for half the money and now I have a threaded barrel.

At what range? There is a good YT video comparing the accuracy, by an Aussie fellow.

I don't know much about the SP01, but the orange is hard to match from a Blue, since it has a factory hand fitted barrel and slide. The trigger upgrades and internal polishing can be matched.

It's good you are doing some research before pulling the trigger. But it sounds like you really want an Orange. I think the Blue is still a fine pistol, but I'm afraid you'd regret not getting the pistol you really wanted. I went through the same thing when I got my S2O. It was worth the extra money to me to get the upgrades.
