God dammit!! I should not do these things.

So unrelated question, how does one start a go fund me?

It’s the P01A1, so to speak, I’ve always wanted. Good trigger, not amazing in DA but good. Single action was very nice. Grips and checkering felt great in the hand. Good useable stock sights even if you throw an optic on. Just a good old DA/SA metal pistol and I want one dammit.

Unrelated medical question. What happens to the body if running on only one kidney?

That's the new variant with a firing pin block and a decocker, right? Factory milled for the RMSc footprint? Seems they fixed every issue I had with the original Shadow 2 Compact. If you find somebody who will pay you for a kidney, ask him if he needs another and give him my number lol.

Yes. Specifically having the decocker and FPBS are selling points for me.

The trigger on the Compact is almost imperceptibly better than the Carry but the Carry is what I wanted when I bought the Compact. The optics mount area is different also so I can’t throw my EOTech red dot on the Carry. It direct fits the Holosun 407/507k, Vortex Defender CCW, etc. I’m really glad they came out with the Carry but now I am just selling the Compact.

I got one couple of weeks ago. Mounted a Holosun EPS carry. Felt great in my hand. Ordered a holster specifically for the Shadow 2 carry. I am hoping it will be here in couple of weeks. Purchased an extra CZ75 Compact magazine made by Mecgar locally. Now I have 3 mags. I also purchased a 19-round CZ 75 magazine from our very own Greg last week.

I had few FTF when I initially took it to the range, approximately 20 rounds out of the 300 rounds I fired. . I was using 115 grain MagTech (brass case). I did not clean the pistol prior to the first range trip. I only oiled the slide and rails. I field stripped, cleaned and lubed the pistol after my first range trip. I am ready for the second trip and will be using 124 grain. I will also bring around 300 rounds of my preferred hollow point. Once I get this pistol running 100%, this will be my new carry pistol.

I have a couple of Sphinx handguns, one is a Compact and those 15 rd mags work in the Compact and carry CZ’s. Also, I have a OWB and IWB holster made for the CZ Shadow 2 Compact and Carry made by G-Code that are excellent.

10x,, which specific G-code holster do you have for for the Compact and Carry? I went to G-Code website and did not find anything specifically designed for the CZ Shadow 2 "Carry" model. I saw one for CZ Shadow 2 "Compact" model. If you have the "Compact" G-Code holster, did the "Carry" pistol fit in the same holster? I am worried about the de-cocker on the Carry model pistol not properly fitting the "Compact" model holster.

I already have an OWB holster on order. Still looking for an IWB.

Thanks

I finger banged one. It’s not quite Sphinx level (the DA you referenced isn’t as good, and neither is the reset IMO) but it’s pretty damn good. Thank God I don’t carry metal framed pistols (Polymer DA/SA) anymore or I’d be damn tempted myself.

Ador, I bought two holsters for the Shadows. The holster I bought for the Compact fits the Carry. The IWB was Phenom and the OWB was the OSH. Again, get the Compact version and it’ll fit the Carry. I was worried it wouldn’t because of the decocker but it works. Hope that helps.

My S2 Compact fits my S2 holsters. Blade Tech and LS Holsters for competition.

JM Kydex has models for the S2 compact, I have an AIWB holster with the molding for extended safety on the S2C, which should be great for the decocker model.

I bought the S2C for an IDPA gun not carry.

As an aside, Milt Sparks makes a Summer Special II for the P0-1.

cslinger - aka one of my beloved sigforum enablers - has introduced me to a gun I had no idea I "needed". Man that thing looks great, I will be checking out my local shops to handle one in person.

Happy I could……ummm help I guess

He’s done the same thing to me a few times. Me must be stopped!

Hey just because I have the impulse control of Hunter Biden and the financial sense of an NFL first round draft pick at a strip club doesn’t mean you have to as well.

I don’t have the money to pick one of these up right now so you are all on your own for now.

Man, I was just getting content with where my gun collection was at, and actually starting to downsize a bit. And I had written the Shadow compact off as pointless (why go compact for the range when you can have a full-size, and no FPB or decocker makes it unsuitable for carry), but then they had to go and make this, and you just had to go and show it to us!

I've got a P229 project I need to get done first, but I'll be darned if you don't have me jonesing for one of these...

Well, I also have no will power. I walked into a pawn shop today and the first thing I see is a like new Shadow 2 Compact with a Holosun sight,5 factory mags, LOK grip panels, a holster and CGW pro kit installed. Wonderful trigger. I never have seen one for sale before this. Yes, I did leave with it. Thanks a lot cslinger!!

I am not even going to ask how much you paid for that package. Seems like a great package you got there. I am currently looking at the same LOK magwell and a different LOK grip panel. I emailed LOK about fitment question on their magwell and my Springer Precision +4 base plate. They cannot confirm.

Can I ask for a favor? Can you please add some pics of the magazine base plate that came with your pistol? I just want to see the contour of those base plates and compare them with my Springer Precision base plates. I want to make sure my base plates will work with that EXACT LOK magwell. Thanks.
