Yes sir!! Last year it was 4-6 seconds! This year I’m at 2-3. Next year hoping to be on pace with the top guys and or trailing 1-2 behind!

if youre buying them, id rule that brand completely out until you get your barrel reamed!. if the OAL (Overall Length) of the round is even a hair too long, it gets stuck in the euro chambering. most all of us (Competitively) have had our barrels reamed so they accept most rounds. that's what I would suggest you do and it should solve your problem regardless of the brand! I have ran 3K of 147 @supervel as well as 3,000 Brass Monkey CD 147's (I loaded), and 1,000 Berrys 147's (I Loaded). not a single malfunction during that time on any of my logs. But I got my barrel reamed at 2,000 rounds. it is now around 32,000.

I personally wouldn't shoot steel ammo in general out of anything more than a $500 gun that I don't care about. Especially not a shadow 2. European barrel chambering is extremely tightly toleranced. For those of us who use them regularly, we ALL have our barrels reamed because of such. Premium brands usually prefer premium rated ammo. aka. NO crap, Cheap, ammo. shadow does shoot most things, but I would stay away from steel, get the barrel reamed, and you should be all good my friend!

@@ATexCatejust shot another 300 rounds of brass thru it. Maybe had another 5-6 FTE. It seemed like when the empty case didn’t clear the chamber , like the extractor missed it kinda or didn’t grab it well. But I’m gonna bring it back to the gun store I bought it from and let there gun smith take a look. As far as reaming , you mean like making it bigger or polishing the feed ramps ?

It’s how dirty the steel case ammo is… So your chamber is gunking up. The fixes I talk about in my video are FOR the problem you’re having. Which is also why I say avoid steel case ammo. Clean your chamber, it’s getting stuck on the grit on the sides during extraction. Not all brass is created equal, especially after detonation. Like I said about tight chamber tolerances. Clean it. Polish it. Stop using steel case. And do not bring it back to the shop you bought it from, it is not their fault. Or their responsibility. It’s the ammunition you’re running through it. And a dirty un reamed chamber having the worst type of ammo ran through it. If they have a gunsmith, pay him to ream and polish your chamber.

@@ATexCate I gotcha. Yes they do have a gun smith. I deff will stay away from the steel cased ammo for sure. Now as far as what you did to the extractor to make it bite a bit more. What did you use to do it ? & is this reaming the barrel something that has to be done all the time or just keep up with maintenance cleaning the gun often

Harder and harder to find, and more and more people are keeping them once they do! Congrats my friend! That’s a great choice! Cajunized everything CZ 👌

Absolutely 0. And I have even competed with it in carry matches.

Install it correctly as defined by the manufacturer

One off. Not available to the open market.

It’s a 147! A 147 is a 147, a 150 is a 150. I would refer to the Hornady Reloading book for load information. How many grains of powder is determined by the type of powder you use.

That’s frustrating. I made it much further than that before issues. Have you done the things I’ve suggested? Or had done?

Local range expert says “lets try Fiochi 124 G only” for a while. I will polish the chamber today, that sounds very promising. Thanks for the video!

yes? no? maybe

They’re horrible. You definitely should.

I can tell you I’m not. I went blind, it shot directly into my eye 😂🤝

Both are Insta360 Hat: Go2 3rd Person: X4 360

Thanks for watching man! Yeah I absolutely love it. SOLID choice my friend 👌

Those were 147gr! I use 4.1 TG for my 124’s!

100%

They did not hold up well to testing. The pin design wasn’t going to work for longevity so we went with a different design entirely that’s dropping very soon. They look great, but they didn’t work as well as they look.

@@ATexCate very exciting. Gonna follow so I can stay up to date. Great video!

Thanks for watching Dave! Nice finish by the way! Yeah I figure full transparency on the channel so when I get where I’m going, the history of my growth will always be here!

They’re the new storm trooper brass monkeys yes but this coating comes in multiple weights. These were 137’s.

A 1 off baseplate on a stock magazine and follower that will never see the market unfortunately.

I literally dropped the magazine in shock… then PICKED IT UP instead of grabbing a new one 😂 You hear Pat go “stick it back in”

Yeah when she runs it’s a lot of fun to shoot! But yeah the QC was just something they apparently didn’t budget for in the production process it would seem! Glad you got yours running good man!

That’s hilarious! Glad you ended up Finding one though!

Yup that was one thing the owner told me after I had him call them Following the filming of this video. They said their typo is causing all kinds of problems. But the screws they provide correlated with the typo with this one particularly. So the screws they gave with the gun, like with yours were the wrong screws to begin with! All the threads are garbage as it is anyway. These Gen 1’s are a little rough

That she is

Hell yeah great work man! I had 2nd Overall behind Mullins who laid down a sick run

Please Do!! Glad you liked it man, welcome and thanks for subscribing!

im simply someone who's focused on a particular skill for a long time, with intentions of mastery. no different than someone great at golf, or pickleball! But appreciate it anyway

Hell yeah!! Enjoy my friend!

Full size would be the same as SP-01/Shadow 2 (Full Size) . Full size has nothing to do with capacity, its strictly the length of the tube itself. they come in everything from a 10 and up. The basepad, spring, and follower will determine capacity past that. for example; my full size shadow runs a full size tube (I have some marked on the side at 15 and some at 17). but with my rune springs/followers and Lok Basepads. I get 23 rounds. but the tube is still simply a "full size" tube/magazine.

So, I see his link for the baseplate but I am still confused about which full size mag to buy. Can you enter a link to a correct full size vz shadow 2 magazine to order? Thanks.

Staccato is cool but it's no Infinity/Atlas/MPA/Akai/Voodoo/D2 etc.

Find myself reaching for my DWX over my Staccatos.

Agree, dwx/cz aren't marketing companies that happen to make guns lol

Thank you Chiren

Appreciate it Bill! The match was not a failure, rather it was a huge lesson. I’ve ran few majors that taught me as much as I learned this weekend about every aspect of my game! I’m very very excited to work through all of the mistakes. Sometimes it’s harder to find mistakes, I’m fortunate that I recognize them in a way to improve, rather than belittle myself for making them!

Yes.

Amen

Thank you very much for the insight! Always looking for everyone’s opinions and perspectives!

They come in that color, it’s raw brass. The tarnishing and white is from chalk and use.

CZ (Czech Group) Owns Colt, and Dan Wesson. Thanks for coming to my TedTalk!

Yeah I’ve got the grips hollowed out. The weight in the rear gets it to cycle with 0 pop with the trade off of that sluggish movement. After this last match I switched back to aluminum myself as well
