She is my first... what a wonderful feeling!!!

[genesis563]

Well here she is, my brand new CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow Line. This is my first firearm and i have to say she's a beaut. I've been waiting on her for just over a month but it was so worth the wait. Special thanks to silverfoxdj for the sound advice and suggestions. I'm going to the range tomorrow so I'll update with a report as soon as possible. Hope you all enjoy the photos and if you have any questions ask away.

Congrats! Nice pistol!

Congrats, my first was a Shadow also. Liked it very much.

 

[triplepete]

Very nice, great choice. You may feel disappointed when you try other guns - the Shadows are hard to beat.

 

[tekarra]

A great choice for your first pistol, however after shooting it, another cZ will be on the way.

Swap out the stock 18lb mainspring for a 13 lb one, and you'll think you're in heaven... Easy peasy and cheap, too.

Wow..my my... love the grip!!! Is it the new stock grip panel?

I have a CZ 85 Combat and it's a heck of a good 9mm. I know you'll love this new 75. Thanks for the tip on the spring Stevebc. I think I'll try that one out.

The grips are (as far as i know) special to the Shadow Line. They are thin aluminum grips and they have a great texture. I got to compare them today with someone at the range who had the regular Shadow with rubber grips, and while both feel nice, i much prefer the aluminum grips. Other than that, i got to shoot 100 rounds through her today and she ran flawlessly, however, the gun revealed that i am an absolutely horrible shot . I guess I'll just have to buy lots and lots of ammo and shoot a lot ... FML

The grips are only on the "Shadow Line" pistols. The original CZ Shadow does not come with them.

Nice pistol! I like the grips

I found that I need a combination of the thin aggressive checker grips and the original rubber, like so:







When I put both thin grips on, there was a gap on the right side that didn't feel right. I admit, this looks a tad odd, but it works for me.

Congrats and welcome to the club. Let us know how she performs when you get to sling some lead.

What are those grips and where can I get a set?

Sorry for taking so long to reply- those are made by CZ Custom, and are called Thin Aggressive Checker, but they haven't made any for a while. (Or hadn't when I tried to order some from their website.) I asked around the forum and someone had a set for sale, so I snatched them up.
