I have been a CZ75 afficianado since the time everyone else didn't know what they were missing. This was back when the only ones you would ever see were the ones that returning GI's would bring back from Rod & Gun clubs and then would end up in a lgs or pawn shop. They couldn't be imported from Czechoslovakia as that country was still communist but were imported from other countries in limited quantities. I prize my made in Czechoslovakia models more than the Czech Republic models. The last CZ's that I bought were a 75D and a RAMI. Just wasn't the same and down the road they went. I'm still looking to add one more and that would be what I call a first variation CZ75.

I've had two of those CG bushings, one on a PCR that David had built. The other I bought and installed on a 75B.
The one I installed did not seem all that much tighter than the original. I could not tell the difference by feel, but if I put it barrel in both and let it hang, you could see the difference.
This 75B was always quite accurate, enough so that I occasionally shot bullseye with it. The new bushing did not improve my scores. But I don't see how it could hurt, and it's still on the gun! That gun was also more accurate than the PCR.

I love CG's parts, and have converted over half a dozen guns, mostly for friends, with no disappointments.

another thing CZ people do is use o-rings to keep the hammer from hitting the firing pin. you will hear just about everyone who does this say "and remember to take the o-ring out or you will get a click instead of a bang, don't ask me how I know"

I have been using caster-bands, they are used for de-nutting and you can find them in a live stock supply or of course online.
I have never broke one, they are very tough and I simply slide them over the hammer. it does not effect the trigger pull and keeps the hammer a long way from the firing pin.
They are very easy to see and I have yet to forget taking it off, so no click here.

The 75 D PCR is on clearance @PSA if you want one, good pricing.

Sure you did

just ordered a Shadow 2 compact...,

I cry every night I miss my PCR so bad, can not wait to get it back from CGW. The closer it gets to receiving it back from them the slower time goes.

I never did write a range report for my CZ 75 Compact. It performed well but we were shooting so many guns that day I didn't make any notes or keep any targets. Maybe next time.

BUT! I was sufficiently satisfied with its performance that I carried it a couple of nights ago whilst meeting a group of friends in what I consider to be a "hinky" part of town. I concealed it under a loose "Aloha shirt".

David at GCW made this the most unbelievable double action I’ve ever shot. Yeah it’s heavy, but between the CGW package and putting a green fiber sight on it it’s near perfect. These are great guns; never a single failure since I’ve owned it.

For the record, when enemies call for a day of rage it gets my attention. This is what I carried last Saturday:



That CZ is an excellent shooter!!!

I admit that I do lower that hammer on a loaded chamber in the most gentle manner possible. Fortunately, I learned how to do that a looooong time ago!!!

I was late to the game with CZ pistols, but I bought these two that had already been modified by CGW. The 75BD Police is an amazing gun, but the 97BD is on a whole different level. It has what CGW called their "E" conversion plus the 1911 bushing. Two nice guns that were greatly improved with mods.

I was advised that they cannot modify my CZ model.

I'm surprised to hear that.

Is that because it's pre-B? (No firing pin block)
Did they tell you it can't be done or that they wouldn't do it?

They list some parts for the pre-B, not specifically for the compact but I don't think it matters. Even if you can't get a full kit that includes a new hammer it would probably still be improved by the reach reduction/short reset kit, combat trigger, and lighter mainspring with extended firing pin.

I have a Rami and I love it. It is compact, reliable and accurate and durable.

I almost bought one 15 years ago. It was all good . . . except the DA trigger pull felt like it was 3 inches.

Is the trigger good in single action?

You've got to do a comparison on these. Also where are the grips from and did you need to custom shape them?

They are cheap G-10 grips from Coolhand grips for CZ 75 Compacts. I did have to do a little file work on the backside of the Shadow 2 grips to get the screw holes to line up. No biggie....

Love the 75 design. I'm luck to have a Shadow 2 SA and Tanfo 10mm. Surprisingly the Tanfo is the better shooter and the Shadow is no slouch.

They didn't say why, just that they could not modify it.

Could be. I'll think on it but it's unlikely, I generally don't tinker with my guns, I'm kind of a Luddite that way. I've done it but rarely.
