Got a second chance to shoot a Czechmate today! OOoh!
« on: September 08, 2012, 09:09:18 PM »
Today a generous match squad member, asked me if I wanted shoot his Czechmate rigged for minor loads---he saw me drooling.
I only shot three targets on one stage with 8" paper discs--blue disc=two shots/disc.   I shot my Zero 125gr minor loads at 129 PF.
The Czechmate ran smoothly and scored 6 hits easily.   
The SA trigger is excellent+. 
The flip was less than my 75B .
Target transition was good---by someone not familiar with the pistol at all
I WANT TO SHOOT IT with MAJOR LOADSs, with the muzzle brake and C-Mor configuration!!!.

The generous squad member, hasn't loaded any major 9mm yet, so I didn't tell him "GET THE LEAD OUT!"  LOAD SOME UP!  "WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU, BOY!.  I instead said, "Thanks a lot for the chance to shoot the Czechmate .   It feels really good, even with my small hands."  He said,  "You're welcome anytime."  He said he hasn't looaded any major loads yet, so I told him, who might help him out.

I also suggested three bullets that should run nicely with major Pf -- one was the Berry's  124gr HBRN TP, that I've been testing in minor loads for future major loads---if / when.  The Berry's will let him load LOOooong, without reeming his chamber.

SHEESH!!! ;D ;D O0

Great. I have only held it at a friend's home (different city!). Loved it from the word go. Has an excellent grip and reach, not much different than a cz75 standard grip, in fact, the reach could actually be better due to a more rearward positioning of trigger (at least I observed that part).

I hope you enjoy plenty of 'major' generosity..
Life is too short to waste on a bad trigger pull
