Shadow 2 safety lever issue?
« on: January 09, 2022, 07:54:42 PM »
Picked up a very slightly used Shadow 2 Black and Blue a few weeks ago and while dry firing the right hand side [from the rear , as held to shoot] safety lever popped off the gun.

After looking around at diagrams for the Shadow 2 I took it apart and seen the right hand safety detent was missing. Called the original owner and he swears he has never took the gun apart other than field stripping.

So i looked around to find one in stock and every time I came to a "does this part fit my model" it says no.  So does the Shadow 2 use a safety detent on the left[with a spring] and on the right [without a spring] or is there another issue I'm missing?

The right side safety detent on the Shadow 2 does not have a spring.  Its more or less held in place by the sear cage when installed correctly and its only real function is to keep the right side safety from falling out like yours did. 

The left side detent is the one with the spring.

Can anyone confirm the above part is the correct part number?

it list multiple czs but not the Shadow2. I'm already frustrated with this platform and do not want to order the incorrect part.

Correct part right here, same as last time I posted it. I had an S2 apart on the bench yesterday afternoon. This is the same part named in your post over on BENOS as well.

Had the same thing happen to me one time when ordering from CZC.  Item showed in stock but showed not available after adding to cart.  Called and CZC actually had them in stock; fixed the website, and allowed me to order.


GIVE THEM A CALL!
