It's scary the stuff I do when I have a spare moment of silence


ETA: I guess it works I had a few light strikes so I'm gonna go to a heavier hammer spring.

I figured this may require some explanation The SP-01 comes DA/SA I basically made an SP-01 into a SA only and added some goodies that are used on the Shadow
I did this without even looking at an exploded view  but I did have to check the sear cage to make sure it would work.
ETA: Did this answer your query?
If you're asking me to explain why I did it? Well then I can only respond with a question to ponder...
Why does a dog lick his nuts

I'd take that thing over a 1911 in the same price range any day.   Great work, and you have a one of a kind gun there.

Now I understand why they don't let you work on the airplanes. They would never pass FAA inspection. (speedfreak955 voice: "The plane doesn't need this part to fly" (rip.......clang - as the part falls to the ground on the hanger floor) "Turn her over, she will fly real good now")

Any interest in selling the small parts and trigger you took out?

Thanks for the responses guys. I 've kinda needed a boost  more than normal lately, but i won't get into it...  Yup its me: as far as the small parts I'll keep them as everything I did can be reversed. The only parts you'll have a time finding are those safeties. if you have an SP-01 it should simply be a matter of changing the trigger and removing the disconnector. If you retain the safeties your sear block should stay the same.
ETA: To address the light strikes. I've got a 14lb hammer spring in it Hence the light strikes. But I cleaned the firing pin channel anyway and I'll go to a 16 that should get it.

Do you reload? If so, keep the 14 or even drop to a 13lb spring and use Federal small pistol primers.......light strikes will go away with the feds.

My business partner is the CZ owner, and I am buddies with a couple of guys that shoot CZ's in USPSA.  He and I have discussed that he wants a set of guts to play with to do his own trigger work on and mess up if he goes wrong.  I am working on making a different set of grips, ones that are really thin.  I know a lot of the comp guys swap out the stock rubber grips for the thin aluminum ones.... so I am playing with some stuff on a new set of grips.  

What thread pitch are the grip screws?  I havent looked that far into things yet but know that the factory grip heads stick out way too far with the grips I am working on. I need something with a very slim profile head.

Looks like Camcar textron is not making the 3.5mm x .6 thread pitch screws in torx head anymore that I can find The cust part# was 62254. I've only got about 30 left.  I'd trust that if you find a source for allen heads you'd share as well
