Taking the CZ Tactical Pistol to a new level of Precision Accuracy.
I just want to say from Day 1 of shooting my Bro's CZ, I absolutely hated the stupid hook trigger that wraps around your finger from factory. Worst trigger design I have ever felt.
Installing the Cajun Gun Works trigger kit.
Installation Instructions - Cajun Gun Works
Before installing the kit, I did some trigger testing. and here were the results. If you don't feel confident in doing this job, take it to a gunsmith. Trigger upgrades on Pistols are more complex and more difficult than doing it on a rifle. Many little pieces you need to be aware of and careful not to lose. During this whole process I would save all parts in case you ever decide to go back to original configuration.
Single Action Starting Results
Both results have plenty of room for improvement.
Tool kit provided with kit, but I still used some of my tools.
The factory grip screws were T20. Cajun Kit included replacement Flat head screws but I reused the originals. I see no reason to replace good and proper screws for the gun.
I am using a Real Avid gunsmithing block.
Here I am working to remove the Hammer spring retainer pin.
Holding with my thumb the bottom so parts don't go flying.
I slowly let the tension off to carefully not lose anything.
Mag well tension plate is removed next.
The De-cocker was next. There is a video on this process.
I would advise to take many pictures during this process. Next is to remove the sear block out of the pistol.
Very carefully knock out the pin here be sure to hold the springs in place
Once pin is removed you will ever so carefully pulle the block out with all the little parts togother.
from here you may want to put a tooth pick down through where the pin was to keep everything aligned and together.
Next will be the removal the the Hammer assembly.
There is a small cross pin that retains the hammer pin. This small pin was held in place the Sear block.
When the sear block is removed you need to take care and be careful not to lose this little pin.
Here is a good view of the pin and this will just slide upward to be removed. Once this is out of the way the hammer pin will slide out.
Once pin is pulled whole assembly can freely be pulled.
Now would be a great time to thoroughly clean the pistol.
Laying out the replacement parts.
Removing the trigger, be careful here because the trigger spring will go flying if you don't protect the hole with something. Your hand or a piece of tape across the top.
The kit replaces the original spring with a reduced tension spring, but it's always wise to hold onto original parts.
I'm not going to lie, this is where I should have placed my hand above the top opening of the gun or a piece of take. after the punch was pulled that spring went flying to never be seen again. It ricocheted somewhere.
During this project we were also changing to the Race Hammer and lengthier firing pin.
We also installed the short reset system. Reach Reduction Kit (hybrid) was also istalled.
Much better floating trigger pins were also used. Polished disconnector.
Used a piece of tape to hold the hammer spring bar in place till i could get the slightly oversized pins started.
This kit will come with 2 different Hammer spings the Firmer of the 2 is the blue. I opted to go with the black to test everything and if we have problems we can go back to the blue. This spring is one of the easier components to swap out.
Remember that reassembly. The Hammer retention pin and the vertical lock pin.
This particular model has no spring holding that vertical tiny pin like some models have, so be careful not to lose it and keep upright.
Another view of that small Pin. Rear of gun towards left of hammer if looking down the barrel in hand.
Next after swapping
Cajun says you need to use a slave pin here. No, you don't. I used a toothpick just fine lol.
I pushed the toothpick through with original pin.
Reinstalling the de-cocker button was simple enough.
Just everything else is assembled as it was pulled apart.
Slide the mag well retention spring first into groove at bottom of gun.
I used my thumb on the bottom to push up against spring retainer piece and installed pin.
Here is a close up to the original trigger that drags on my finger, and I always hated the feel of.
The original trigger always felt unnatural to me.
The new Trigger is far better and cleaner looking to me.
New Trigger pull test results.
Well worth the few hundred dollars spent in parts.
This is the Single action pull.
Believe it or not that 6 lb 12.9oz is the double action pull. Crazy improvement over stock.
This pistol is officially FAFO approved.
