Hello From Oregon (Lots of Pics)
« on: August 12, 2014, 06:47:00 PM »
I've been lurking around here for a while now. Figured i might as well say hi and share my edc P-01 with everyone. I've had it not quite a year. i'm running #13 mainspring and a #16 recoil spring.  extended firing pin. Trigger job. grips and sights. and a few other things as well. This is my second CZ my first was a full sized 75bd really liked it but no longer have it. 

Day 1


I cant have anything stock i don't know if that is a good or a bad thing. hard to tell but its the best picture i have but new front sight, Fiber optic.



I read about problems with the stainless steel guide rods so i thought this might help. I havent had a problem with it rubbing on the frame.


Those rubber grips had to go! I wanted black aluminum but nobody had them at the time. I have to say the silver grips really have grown on me they look so sharp, and feel amazing.


Trying my had at a trigger job. Its definitely better then stock, but im sure its not as good as cgw or czc.



Cut the lanyard loop of the main spring plug, ground it down smooth and powdercoated it black.



Cerakoted the barrel i forgot to get a picture of it when it was done so there is a little ware on it now.


I really like the look of the competition hammer so i got one!


85 trigger and light weight trigger spring.


Tactical tritium sights



And this is how it looks now i'm thinking about Cerakoting the frame and slide but who knows might just leave it like this for a while.

Very nice!  Those grips give it a very unique look along with the comp hammer and tritium sights.

Really great job on those mods. I love the look of burnt bronze and always thought a burnt bronze frame and graphite black slide would be amazing! If I did cerakote, that's what I'd do.

Thanks everyone!

Really great job on those mods. I love the look of burnt bronze and always thought a burnt bronze frame and graphite black slide would be amazing! If I did cerakote, that's what I'd do.

Thanks I like the burnt bronze also, but i would do the frame and slide and do everything else graphite black. I know its been done before but it just looks so nice.

Do it! Hahaha. I'd love to see a P-01 all burnt bronze. It may inspire me to have mine done the same.

Like the pics.  I've got tritium  sights on my 1911, where did you get those for the CZ?
