I's been a busy day at casa de Marzy.

I have had my eye on a target gun for some time now. I wanted the CZ Czhechmate Parrot terribly, but the $3500+ price tag keeps me away as I don't professionally compete. This will keep me happy.

It came with 5 magazines, but none of the +2 mag caps.

I got it on consignment from someone who bought it and hated the SAO trigger, but I LOVE 1911's so it fits my shooting style.

The trigger is better than any 1911 I have ever shot. It's just apply pressure and it just breaks.

So for $900 out the door, I got a $1300 target gun to be enjoyed at the next SigShoot. A quarter of the cost of the Parrot.

Nice find Mars.I have the da/sa Shadow 2 Orange and love it, a very easy gun to shoot fast.
If your Sa trigger is anything like the one in my TSO its scary light and crisp.
Hope you enjoy it.

This one came with all the parts to put the large safety lever over to the ejection side and the flat to the opposite.

There are also no holes for a douche pedal, nor slide milling for a tumor sight.

Did the orange come with two safeties?

This thing has the absolute best trigger of any production gun I've ever touched out of the box!

I spent a big wad of cash on my 1911 race gun/bullseye gun to get that kind of trigger.

The slide is super slick.

The whole thing seems to be a merger of the P210, 92F and High Power.

A very nice score, Marzy.
SAO is the way to go. Just something about ‘em.
Shoot the shit out of that CZ.

I have the Green one and it cost double what you paid. You made a great deal. The single action is great but the gas pedal is baloney. I will take it off and be happier.

You’re talking two different guns

My Orange only came with 1 safety-the wide one.
Have been hunting online for the narrow one for the left side but no luck yet everyone shows out of stock.

This thing is super slick.
I can't build a 9mm 1911 to match this for what one costs. Out of the box, it's ready to go.
The trigger is light and crisp.
The ONLY thing I'd want is a threaded barrel and a screw on compensator.

Threaded barrels for CZ 75 series pistols are as common as hens' teeth. I had one for a 75 compact, and I sold it like a dummy. Frown

Came across a CZ SA Blue recently. The trigger pull is smooth. Seems like it got even better after shooting a bit.
