That's like saying I'm thinner than Rosie O'Donnel, it's true, but it's still not saying much.

True, but the point still stands. By being sexier than will, the law of averages and the Pythagorean theorem state that I'll perform better than he will. It also helps that he will be at area 4.

Purdy gun!!!

Justin I will whip you from area 4. Just call me and hold the buzzer next to the phone and ill sling some rounds in from Texas.

Wish you were here, sunshine. Brandon won't shut up haha.

so... back to the original topic of how my new shadow makes me look really awesome while losing matches and shooting terribly. I managed to get out to turcotte and shoot 300 rounds through it and was really pleased. Aside from getting used to a long double action pull it grouped really well. While I prefer the short crisp 3# pull of my Springer Precision tuned XD, the CZ just points more naturally. I also like the extra weight. It's definitely a well made pistol. I don't think I've ever had a pistol that didn't rattle and shake until now.

The DA pull is around 6.2# and the single action is 3.12. When I first got it it was around 8# in DA, but a removed a few coils from the mainspring and got it down to 6#. It ran federal primers perfectly. When I get a few more spare springs I'm going to tweak the trigger return spring and mess with the mainspring a little more to see if I can get it down to 5.5/2.5.

Sweet!
