CZ Shadow 2 questions

[venenoindy]

I'm looking into buying a CZ shadow 2 but my goal is to have it SAO, I have found a great deal for a base CZ Shadow 2 brand new for $1000.00 or the SAO for $1350.00. the question is what would be better to buy?, either way I think both will need a trigger job to really take it to the next level. I plan to but the Cajun gun works parts as I do really enjoy a good trigger. more than anything I'm looking for a tactical set up rather than competition to replace my absent Staccato P.

If your goal is "next level" buy a base model and go all in with Cajun parts and a Wizard trigger job.

Might have a little more in it but it will be next level.

Sign up for palmetto state armory emails they’re running sales on shadow 2’s last Friday they were 899 with free shipping!

When they were clearing out the shadow 2 single action earlier this year they were as low as 700 I think! (That’s 1/2 what I paid for mine!)

And fyi highest on my want list is the shadow 2 compact!, if I got it I’d put a Cajun single action conversion in it! Perfect idpa gun! (After I put a delta point pro on it!)

I had a Shadow 2 for years. It’s a great gun, but it is heavy. The trigger on my sa/da was “heavy” in da, but smooth and quick reset in sa. I never liked either safety that came with it. One was too smooth and the other felt too blocky. It’s a pretty big difference than a 1911/2011 safety (imho).

You say you want this for tactical and it is to replace your Staccato. If you’re already use to SAO, then personally, I would stay that way.

If you’re looking at just saving money, then sa/da is usually the cheaper route, but may not live up to your expectations and what you are used to in a SAO.

You can convert to SAO easily. The only part you need is a SAO trigger and then remove the disconnector!

Ive seen the deals through PSA on these. They had the shadow 2 compact yesterday for 1299 down from 1999. Definitely some deals to be had if youre in the market for these.

I saw the SAO for 699 as well.
