All CZ Custom has to do is convince CZ-USA to add it to their web site with the other competition models. Sell some through the dealer network. Have CZ-USA confirm that 2000 have been produced. True or not they will not ask CZ for proof of the production numbers. It's not what the Accu-Shadow is. It's who sells the Accu-Shadow.
All that has been done, see my analysis and conclusion below:
From the IDPA rulebook, this is the only definition of what an OEM (original equipment manufacturer) pistol is:
"...With respect to slide machining, SSP, ESP and CDP, Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) firearms with extensive slide machining are approved for use in IDPA if they meet all other
requirements for their respective Divisions. For slide machining,
an OEM product is defined as a complete firearm product, with specific model part numbers or skus catalogued as stock items by the manufacturer and have a minimum annual production of 2,000 units for that specific model."
Let's review if the Accushadow meets the definition of an OEM product......
1) A complete firearm product - Why yes, when you buy the Accushadow you get a pistol, not a box of parts or add-ons
2) With specific model part numbers or skus catalogued as stock items by the manufactuer - Why yes, SKU 91730 right from CZ-USA's website:
http://cz-usa.com/product/cz-75-sp-01-accu-shadow-9mm-black-3x18-rd-mags-by-cz-custom/3) Have a minimum production run of 2000 units for that specific model: Why yes, if the Accushadow did not meet the 2000 pc minimum it would not be approved by USPSA as a Production gun
So the AccuShadow meets the OEM product definition, but IDPA rules it illegal on some other arbitrary definition, while they let slide all the S&W Performance Center and PRO Series pistols.
It wouldn't have anything to do with all the money S&W pours into IDPA?
