I hope to join your club soon. I should have a CZ52 in the mail from SOG today. I will post pictures when I can find a camera to steal.

Uh huh. Drag raced for several years, built several small blocks (355-406's), got 30wt flowing in my veins. Got the trophys to prove it

sweet. in response to the last two posts.

schmeky · December 3, 2008, 07:17 PM

SteveH52,

Good grief, that thing is freakin' gorgeous. CZ's got to be best looking pistols around, and that Phantom proves it. WOW.

Deer Hunter · December 3, 2008, 10:33 PM

If it only had a manual safety...

My contribution:

Still stock but already bought it a present - 3 more Mec-Gars from Midway. I plan on a set of wood grips, and a lot of ammo.

Deer Hunter · December 6, 2008, 12:08 AM

Hm, anyone have a link on how to put the comp hammer into a stock CZ?

I assume just punch out the pins, but I don't want to mess anything up.

burningsquirrels · December 6, 2008, 12:11 AM

yeah. once you take out the hammer pin, the strut and hammer stuff comes out. then drive the pin holding the hammer to the strut out, and place the new hammer in. IIRC, i used two pieces of wood to elevate the hammer up while i hammered the pin down.

this may help

Thanks BS.

Eerw,

I used that thread to give my CZ a slight trigger job. It's a great resource!

Deer Hunter · December 6, 2008, 01:15 AM

Aw hell...

I just broke my punch I was using to push out those pesky little pins.

I'm not going to try to mess with it until I can get another punch.

burningsquirrels · December 6, 2008, 07:17 AM

wait, what? on what did you break it?

Deer Hunter · December 6, 2008, 10:12 AM

Trying to remove one of the pins holding the hammer assembly together.

It was an old, cheap punch. I got it partway out, still stuck a little on one side. Havn't messed with the second pin.

I'll pick up a new punch today.

Here are my guns including a SS CZ 75B in 9mm, a CZ 75 SP-01 Tactical in .40S&W an EAA Witness Elite Match in 10mm.

Deer Hunter · December 6, 2008, 05:20 PM

Alright guys, a little guidance.

What part do I need to fool with to get my safety working again?

I replaced everything that needed to be replaced (and damnit if my hammer pins weren't in their tight), and it feels great. But I'd like my safety to work.

burningsquirrels · December 6, 2008, 05:33 PM

ok, with the slide out.... try pushing up on the safety. then, you'll see what's blocking it. it's one of the legs of the sear as shown in my sear guide.

burningsquirrels · December 6, 2008, 05:37 PM

burningsquirrels · December 6, 2008, 05:38 PM

safety engaging the sear.

ParaElite · December 6, 2008, 05:39 PM

Talk about a hijacked thread!

burningsquirrels · December 6, 2008, 05:40 PM

^^ lol...

Deer Hunter · December 6, 2008, 06:21 PM

Aw hell guys... I boo-booed.

Looks like I took a little too much off of the sear. Now the safety wont work.

Anyone know where I can get a new one?

I feel like an idiot for that. I didn't think I took that much off, and I followed the diagrams. Oh well.

eerw · December 6, 2008, 06:24 PM

so when the hammer is back and the safety is on..if you pull the trigger.. the sear moves and the hammer drops??

how much is off?? if just a little..you could try peening the arms of the safety to move a little bit of metal..sometimes this works..

otherwise CZ-USA or Ghostholster may have sears

Deer Hunter · December 6, 2008, 06:28 PM

I took off too much to try peening the arms of the safety. This makes me feel very stupid.

I send an email to Ghost holster, and am checking CZ-USA now.
