awesome...great video, great information. I just got this pistol and my first thought was, "this might be a great pistol for competition, I wonder if anyone is running with it", thus, perfect timing for me. Thanks for providing so much R&D. And good luck! Thanks again!!!
Awesome in depth content thanks! Good luck at the match hope you mop up with your sexy CZ!!! Hope you keep this type of long build content coming as well as updates.
I really want to take a factory Shadow 2 compact to the range for a few mags and see how it is. I did get to put one in my hands a few days ago and it felt pretty darn good in the hands! And that trigger!! I barely have 7-800 rounds through my 365 Legion and a local FFL gets the CZ in for the same price as the 365 Legion I just purchased a couple months back at $1299. To say I haven't been thinking about the CZ before I lay down at night I'd be lying. I feel another payment plan if it sits around there long enough! 😜 I'll say it's a Christmas present. 🤔
Great video as well as seeing you at State in May. Got an injury (getting old) during the match and been taking it kinda easy since then. Looking forward to seeing you at a match again soon. Take care Paul.
@@TheGentlemanGunner Thanks friend. Had a hip replacement 12 years ago and the match beat the hell out of me. Lol. My surgeon just gave me the okay 5 days ago to run and gun again. Question: when you shoot matches with irons do you go fiber front and blacked out rear? Hard to see in the video.
Have you had a chance to experience the DWX Compact? I am thinking about giving CCP a go over the Winter and was curious to see if it’s better to go with the modded Shadow or stock DWX?
If they would have gone to a decocker on the s2 compact i would definitely get one. They just made it a worse competition gun rather than a performance carry option
@@liverpool6380 I think I’ve done it enough times to say that it’s easy… so I layout like this… You have to remove the entire trigger group starting with the Main Spring (assuming you’ve already field stripped it)… 1) Remove your Grip Panels 2) Pull the Pin retaining the mainspring 3) remove the Mainspring 4) Mag Brake shouldn’t be in the way… but just in case… Remove the top pin holding the Mag Brake and pull out the Mag Brake 5) Remove the Safety (pull up the seat spring and should pop out) 6) Remove the Sear Cage/Group (don’t disassemble) 7) Be careful of both of your Safety detents don’t fall out or just remove them. 8) Remove the Retaining pin holding the pin in for the Hammer/Strut/Disconnector. Then pull all that out 9) Pull the pin holing the trigger bar and shoe in place… then remove the trigger bar and shoe. Watch out for flying return springs! 10) Push out the pin holding the trigger shoe and that’s it! Then do all this in reverse Sorry, I just wanted to see if I could do it from memory… Saturday antics 😂

the right ammo, and spring combo can really make a gun feel entirely different.
Any recommendations?
It was a pleasure to shoot your setup man. So much passion poured into this project!
@@vmanshooting yes I agree passion… there was a lot of passion when you were drilling those targets 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

@@LVbibby I never realized how much content I did on this gun until I was updating my website yesterday 😂
Congratulations on the bump to CCP Master!!
Great video good luck at the match!
Favorite firearm right now, keep the content coming!!
I knew those stages looked familiar! Mission 160 is awesome.
Always a pleasure, great gun conversations
Great information, thanks
Not going to modify internals on my S2C at this time for carry drop safety, but that EamannTech trigger looks exactly like what i wanted. Thanks!

@@jknewb6276 nice 😂
Some people would like the compact chrome plated and recoil like a 22 using light hand pressure.
Great Video Brother!

@@TexasEskimo yeah sure do… I like that setup because it reminds of shooting an RDS
I’d really love to find a set of tritium night sights for my Shadow 2 Compact, especially with an adjustable rear sight.
@@tomahawk5118 Dawson doesn’t have any?
Chadow 2 compact imconparable
How much length did the mag well add to the gun? Did you have to remove any material from the underside to fit into the box?
@@matroberts17 no, length/height was fine.
@@TheGentlemanGunner thank you so much! I just ordered one for my IDPA setup.
Have you had a chance to experience the DWX Compact? I am thinking about giving CCP a go over the Winter and was curious to see if it’s better to go with the modded Shadow or stock DWX?
I’d put money on a DWX compact… fits in the box easier than an S2C and 2011 trigger. I (and my hands) just hate thumb safeties
If they would have gone to a decocker on the s2 compact i would definitely get one. They just made it a worse competition gun rather than a performance carry option
DPM will sell you a set of 4 lighter springs for $1. That is what I run with my CCP load.
How a the new P09C? A lot cheaper.
@@Platoon_Guide I just ordered a P09F Nocturne… but for review and possibly a practice gun only
Try making your own Silicone Carbide grips. GAME CHANGER.
That is an art and I’ve seen some awesome molded “palm swell” setups turn out nice
I love my S2C
I need to upgrade like you did
Is it hard to install the trigger shoe?
@@liverpool6380 I think I’ve done it enough times to say that it’s easy… so I layout like this…
You have to remove the entire trigger group starting with the Main Spring (assuming you’ve already field stripped it)…
1) Remove your Grip Panels
2) Pull the Pin retaining the mainspring
3) remove the Mainspring
4) Mag Brake shouldn’t be in the way… but just in case… Remove the top pin holding the Mag Brake and pull out the Mag Brake
5) Remove the Safety (pull up the seat spring and should pop out)
6) Remove the Sear Cage/Group (don’t disassemble)
7) Be careful of both of your Safety detents don’t fall out or just remove them.

What magwell are you using? I didn’t get a good look of it.
@@strategic-werks that is the LOK magwell (specifically for the S2C)
@@TheGentlemanGunner Ok, I see. I just went over to your website. Thanks!
Does the compact have a short chamber as well? How short of an oal are you loading it?
@@kennethdaguro121 it seems to not be picky with other ammo with higher OAL. But we landed at 1.13 for this one with a 147

@@Gun_Dork stop giving me good ideas 😂
@@TheGentlemanGunner come onnn. Just get one.
Can you please please please do a comparison video with the shadow 2 compact and Dan Wesson dwx compact optics ready
Well it sucks because i really want the pistol but its a competition gun not carry and this cements that.
Hopefully they revamp the p01. Make it or and change up the slide serrations
My problem was the trigger had no wall and was super light so I got ND so no way I could carry it but cool gun
