This is a great review! I have this custom pistol and I love it. I put the standard rubber grips from the CZ shop on and it’s my favorite gun, the smooth action is second to none, I’m so glad I got one, it will stay in the family forever. And again great review, I’ve never been able to find any good reviews, idk why this hasn’t popped up sooner due to the amount of research I do on RUclips. But it’s the best review I’ve found by far. Well done and thank you 🙏🏼
Back in Christmas, I had received a CZ-75 Shadow 2 Blue, and when I picked it up it melted into my hand like shaking hands with an old friend. I prefer the Shadow 2 ergonomics (with the extended safety) over the SP-01 Shadow but not by a gigantic amount. The trigger on the Shadow 1 Target 2 however did make me incredibly jealous, so I decided to order a Cajun Gun Works Pro-Package for my S2 with the T5 disconnector, CZ Custom hammer, and a polished hammer strut to go with a reduced power trigger return spring, 13lbs mainspring, and 11lbs recoil spring. After matching my Shadow 2 to the SP-01 Shadow 1 Target 2’s trigger specs (different custom shop parts), I have to say that I agree.. That trigger is THE best trigger I’ve ever felt my entire life… The pre-travel is almost non existent, the trigger poundage is perfect, the double action is like butter smooth, and the reset is 1911 short… CZ Custom and Cajun Gun Works make phenomenal parts to turn already decent pistols into the Top 5 of all time maybe!
I live relatively close to CZ Custom and just picked one up last night. Can’t wait to take it to the range! I might use it for home defense after it proves reliable since it has a rail.
Awesome review! I had bought the Shadow 2 and while my background check was being run, the dealer brought the CZ Custom Target II out. I immediately fell in love and came back the following week to purchase it. Thanks again!
I was lucky enough to find one of these used at Sportsmans Warehouse and I don't believe they knew what they had because the price was $950 and it looked unused. Actually I also had no idea what it was, but I tried the trigger and knew something was special about it. I also noticed the CZ Custom stamp on the right side so I bought it.
Love my SP01 (I put the 85 Combat trigger in mine, LOK palm-swell grips and changed the main/recoil springs to a 12#/15# combo I believe) would LOVE to have a Shadow Target. Awesome review.
beautiful ergonomics,design an style....understated...flashy firearms don't do it for me.....ive been researching for sumtime now for my 1st time acquisition,an I'm constantly drawn to thr CZ RANGE......as a newby to sidearms I'm impressed ,even with my limited knowledge al, lack of expertise an experience....im hoping with advice from methods. Can make a good choice for my 1st aquisition...obviously i wld hope to make a purchase that is a lifetime investment......
AWESOME and beautiful firearm!! Definitely is one of those on my list!! I have several other CZ’s now and absolutely love each one of them!!👍🏻👍🏻 Great review as always!!
Your Performance Model is no longer available, only the base line Model with a saftey switch or decocker Model are available . Now it's called a convertible , I've seen guy's say the opposite parts from the way it was shipped were included, that's no longer available either. You get it the way it comes only .
The word considerably can have different meanings to different people. But I can tell you that for me, I am sure he shooting it better than the S2. Thank you for watching.
@@MDpolo just ordered a shadow target 2 as well! I can't wait to compare them. I've had factory cz hand guns before but nothing tuned from cz custom in Mesa.
@@MDpolo absolutely, you put out great content. I plan on picking up a CZ Shadow 2 orange in the coming weeks. I’m in love with CZ. They own the competition market. For now, tomorrow I’m buying a Staccato P duo, I’m pretty stoked about it.
Wanted to to tell you. I finally found one at a great price and picked it up. I'm very happy with the decision. Thank you for the information and the suggestion.👍
+Simpson Rd Larry - good eye, yes they are. The grip geometry of the SP01 Target 2 is different. It allows for a more natural hold of the pistol and your hand can go deeper and higher into the grip.
Can anyone give some suggestions for the shadow target ii model please? I have been having a hard time finding a good fit. I do also use Safariland els belt but willing to switch my rig belt out if needed. Appreciate any help or suggestions for some holster options.
I really love th dainty look of the standard trigger . delicate an sensitive as opposed to allot of other trigger configurations..really good
I just shot this gun the first time today and i've to say its amazing.
Your right about the grips getting hot, but this gun can be carried safely in DA.
thank for getting right to it. too many YTers just talk to hear themselves talk.
+tim kenney Thank you for watching!
I enjoyed watching this video again. One of my favorite CZs, so I'm going to shoot it this week.
It is an awesome shooter. I appreciate you watching it again.

They are fantastic handguns. Thank you very much for sharing your set up and for stopping by.

Congratulations on your purchase! Please let me know what you think of it once you get a chance to shoot it. Thank you very much for watching!

Two fantastic pistols. Thank you for watching! I appreciate the kind words.
@@MDpolo you’re welcome. Your reviews are some of my favorites!
I appreciate that very much.

Sounds like an awesome SP01 - congratulations! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
I’ve got thousands of rounds through mine not one issue it’s a beast , I’ll take it over any 2011 !!!!
Yes, they are pretty sweet. Thank you very much for stopping by.
Nice review!I have the same one, love the way it shoots!
Thank you. Yes, it is amazing. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. I appreciate it.
Love the Shadow target. Wish the price wasn't so high.
Amazing pistol! Thanks. Also, I usually don't care for the two-tone look for a pistol, but that Shadow 2 looks super.
Thank you very much for your comments and for taking the time to watch. I appreciate it!
@@MDpolo You're welcome. My pleasure.
I would love to see a showdown between this gun and the sig p226 legion!!
Good idea!

My Shadow 2 came with the large safety and the normal flush FIT safety yes the Shadow 2 weighs 46 Oz compared to spo1 Shadow Target 2 at 41 Oz
+MountainMan 99 thank you for watching and for taking the time to comment.
IDPA legal..! 👍
AWESOME and beautiful firearm!! Definitely is one of those on my list!! I have several other CZ’s now and absolutely love each one of them!!👍🏻👍🏻 Great review as always!!
+Simpson Rd Larry - thank you for your kind words. This CZ is amazing. Stay tuned, I have another special CZ review coming up...
Your Performance Model is no longer available, only the base line Model with a saftey switch or decocker Model are available . Now it's called a convertible , I've seen guy's say the opposite parts from the way it was shipped were included, that's no longer available either. You get it the way it comes only .
What's the difference between the shadow target 2 and the accu shadow?
CZ The Best
This Shadow Target sure is nice. Thank you for watching.
Is it considerably better than the Shadow 2 ?
The word considerably can have different meanings to different people. But I can tell you that for me, I am sure he shooting it better than the S2. Thank you for watching.
You should try the Grand Power k100 or x caliber. Best trigger for the money by far!
I would love to. Just haven’t been able to get my hands on one to review. Thank you for watching!
@@MDpolo on sale at global ordnance right now! Less than $400 for the k100 and $599 for the x caliber! I bought a few more at that price.
@@MDpolo just ordered a shadow target 2 as well! I can't wait to compare them. I've had factory cz hand guns before but nothing tuned from cz custom in Mesa.
@@Strange84 thank you. I’ll take a look.
@@Strange84 they are pretty awesome.
I recently bought a p10c. Now I want this too. Any difference between this gun and the CZ 75 sp-01 shadow?
Yes, quite a bit of difference. But you actually need to feel it for yourself. Hard to explain over a video. Thank you very much for watching.
Complimenti ottimo video.
Grazie mille.
Awesome video
Thank you very much. I appreciate you taking the time to comment.
@@MDpolo absolutely, you put out great content. I plan on picking up a CZ Shadow 2 orange in the coming weeks. I’m in love with CZ. They own the competition market. For now, tomorrow I’m buying a Staccato P duo, I’m pretty stoked about it.
Very good choices. I’d love to know how you like them after you get them.
@@MDpolo will do, thank you for your insights and input surrounding these fine pistols. Great channel 💪🏼
The shadow 2 or the shadow target 2 which Do you prefer?
The target. But in this category, the Phoenix Redback. Hands down. Thank you very much for your question and for taking the time to stop by.
Thank you for the reply
Wanted to to tell you. I finally found one at a great price and picked it up. I'm very happy with the decision. Thank you for the information and the suggestion.👍
@@fishthis that’s awesome! You are very welcome. Have you shot it yet? Let me know what your experience is.
@@MDpolo not yet. And I will when I do.
Are the grips and the grip frame of the gun different from the regular Shadow 2? In the video it almost looks like they are different profiles.
+Simpson Rd Larry - good eye, yes they are. The grip geometry of the SP01 Target 2 is different. It allows for a more natural hold of the pistol and your hand can go deeper and higher into the grip.
Hot grips in the sun? Why would you ever put this beauty down?
Well, sometimes we go to the range with more than one pistol. It happens. Thank you very much for watching!
Can anyone give some suggestions for the shadow target ii model please? I have been having a hard time finding a good fit. I do also use Safariland els belt but willing to switch my rig belt out if needed. Appreciate any help or suggestions for some holster options.
I assume you looking for a competition set up?
Does it come with the front accu bushing?
I don’t remember. Got rid of it a few months ago. Thank you for watching!
Ima buy all 3 f it
Lovely firearm amazing firearm yet the Phillips screw head on the grip is a truly horrendous aesthetic blunder however small....😢
Non of those SP01's have original grips
1600 bucks and the grips don't fit right, those are clearly grips for a CZ 75b frame not the spo1 frame.
Sp01 shadow is absolutely far the best gun chambered in 9mm para!!
It’s a good one for sure!
Is it idpa ssp legal ?
@@karaesek69 I don't know propositions and limits for IDPA...
Goddamn that thing is nice 👌👌👌
+mach 6 yes it is. Have you seen my two videos on the CZC A01-LD?... Thanks for watching.
Why do you keep saying ZC?
Must be my accent. Thanks for watching.
We dont care what you like.
We want legit evalulations.
I do my absolute best to bring you objective reviews that are honest and as thorough as I can make them.
