I did not pre-order with anyone. Got my Blue/black one from a small shop in Southern Alberta yesterday. Feels like CZ is more to blame then anyone here but still weird how I got mine before everyone else on a pre-order list for the blue/black.
Looks like I was a good boy after all! Got an email from Santa that mine has finally arrived!!!
I tried changing the hammer spring with a lighter one I had for my shadow, but the shadow 2's is shorter and though it will work, the lighter spring felt the same as the shorter stock spring. It would help if I cut it, but then I'd no longer be IPSC production legal. No one would know but me, but I would know and that's reason enough for me. If anyone finds a source for lower power springs let me know!
