The Gentleman Gunner

The Gentleman Gunner

This channel was made to be more than your typical “Guntuber” … this is a Shooter’s Channel. All the content I produce is for the lens of the gentleman shooter who wants to be more than entertained, but informed as well.

I actively shoot Action Pistol primarily in IDPA & USPSA. I’ve done over 300 plus matches and shot 100k plus rounds… so I’m addicted. I genuinely enjoy creating content because I learn something new as well as get better in some manner… and it’s fun to interact with people who love this hobby/sport.

    MUCH safer way to decock- take your thumb and jam it in between the face of the hammer and back of the slide. When you pull the trigger, you will feel the hammer release just slightly. BEFORE removing your thumb, release the trigger. Now slowly remove your thumb and let the hammer slowly fall. You will notice with the trigger no longer pulled, the hammer will only fall to the half cock position. CZs with decockers actually dont fully decock- they fall to the half cock position and that is how you are supposed to carry the gun. Point being, super safe way to decock and carry. There are several videos out there that show this technique of decocking the Shadow 2 compact. Amazing gun!

    I hear what you’re saying. But for the record per CZ… “A half-cock safety notch is on the hammer so as to prevent it from striking the firing pin when the hammer is manually cocked, and a thumb could slip. When the hammer is on the safety stop, it is not leaning against the firing pin stop, but its position is further back.” The design of that function was not to have another safety option to carry the gun. One other note, I’ve seen 3 instances where people’s hand/thumb slips (usually because it’s either really cold or they’re sweaty) that “half-cock” not catch it and bang 😬

    Great review. I picked this one up last December. Probably my favorite current hammer gun. Not sure it will ever be a carry gun for me but one day maybe. Only issue I ran into was the recoil spring broke after various 500 rounds. I’ve seen the same breakage on at least another S2C. Thankfully a cheap fix thanks to CGW.

    Quickly from this video I caught speed shooting! Terran tac all about speed from what I've seen on his videos. First was his quad loads on the benelli m4 TT model. Super fast reloads and accurate shooting. I held a viper being a by far rookie gun enthusiasts, but terran can make the best speed shooting guns around. Out of all you can actually air rack the viper as Wick did and that tells you proper weight, speed and accuracy matters being how many people constantly trying to hunt Wick. Main features you need for competition shooting. Speed and accuracy!

    I’m currently running it with 11lb recoil and 11.5lb hammer springs. It feels great with “gamer loads” … also have brass grips on it and it doesn’t really do that much other than I like the shape of it (palm swell). I felt the full-size S2 needed brass grips to balance it out (and it does)… but the S2C doesn’t have a ton of weight out front like its big brother.

    Fair enough I find the stock springs feel good to me, but bet the trigger is bonkers with the reduced springs!

    Got mine awhile ago. It took just one magazine to convince me that it is a fantastic shooter. I went from all over the target to shooting the center out of it at legal use range. The sights and trigger even allowed me to speed up and still have accuracy. I’m 70 with a heart condition and meds that affect my shooting but this pistol is awesome. It seems forgiving while still shooting accurately. Soon; very soon I will be using it as my EDC. I hope the popularity doesn’t drive the price up as I would consider a second for my family legacy.

    I own and carry all 3 of these guns and love each one for different reasons. The CZ S2C is a fantastic accurate and pleasant shooting gun with all the ergos of the S2 in a smaller lighter package. I’d compete with it if my main went down any day. It carries easily though a larger than the AXG. It can be a bit finicky with ammo and prefers nickel primers but I have 2, one tuned by CZ Custom and it’s competition ready with a light DA and a godly SA. The AXG Legion is a soft shooter with the integrated comp and is the thinnest of the bunch and therefore carries the smallest. Cleaning is easy and quick and thank God because it gets dirty. Really dirty quickly. Trigger is good for a stricker but no comparison to the other 2. Lastly, the PX4 is far and away the most reliable, not that the others are unreliable, just that Beretta made this mistake to work always and in 3,000 rounds I have never had a single failure. It is thicker than the other 2 and more expensive. The PX4 has a decker which I prefer though both the S2C and the PX4 are SA/DA again, my preference in a carry gun. The shooting experience with the PX4 is the most unique because of the rotating barrel but the S2C is great to shoot as well because of its low bore axis. You won’t go wrong with any of them.
