Before anyone says that the trigger has a lot of take up Before you hit the wall put on winter gloves and realize the geographical location of where the cold war era of the pistol design was made
Just picked up SP01 Tactical! Thanks for the review, any thoughts on the CGW parts for it? Are they worth it, feel a difference? I literally got everything that can be changed haha Spring kit, trigger, guide rod etc
I swapped out the hammer spring and recoil spring on my Shadow 2 with springs from CGW and overall I have been impressed. I kept the mods very minor and just wanted a slightly softer trigger pull and a lighter recoil spring. These guys know what they are doing. Just be sure to do your research before you go and make any major changes to the gun.
Fremont Nebraska here. Love my PCR and 74B Omega. How is the trigger break on that one? I love the recoil impulse on these and how they fit in the hand. Id want a better trigger break though. Let me know how this tactical trigger is in your opinion.
It is a very smooth double action trigger pull. The reset is fairly short and is not gritty. Has good weight to it when you pull the trigger. It is an awesome pistol. Thanks for watching!
I gotta ask: how does it feel in the left hand? Are the grips out of the box symmetrical or asymmetrical to fit a righty? I’ve been looking for a solid-steel pistol with a rail that’s not entirely unbearable to use left-handed. Slide release I’m used to with my Glock and I believe the mag release can be swapped over as well. Great review
It is symmetrical with an ambi slide stop/slide release and the mag release is reversible. It also has a few back straps that come with it. You may have to contact Walther about a mounting plate for your optic if you decide to go that route.
@@travisp11 thanks for the prompt reply! Was the tactical variant on the lower end of the price range the website shows? Website shows 820-900 bucks and I’m curious why the wide gap?
@@justinsane11 Oh crap! I saw the tiny thumbnail on my phone and thought this was my Walther PDP video. I am so sorry! I don't have the SP01 anymore as it was a loaner to the channel so unfortunately I dont have an answer for you.
Very well made video. However, the target distance is too short to evaluate accuracy with different bullet weights. At 7 yards everything should be in one ragged hole no matter the ammo.
This is true but the recoil impulse may be different causing the bullets to pattern differently. Also, I try a few different types of ammo to ensure that it will run function with different types of ammo.
That is a good question. I guess I was just seeing how the full reset felt. I know it's not necessary but it also allows me to feel where the "wall" kicks in before the trigger breaks, and I was also adjusting to the the overall grip if the pistol.
I was thinking the same thing watching him shoot also his support hand thumb is not resting on the frame while pressing a tiny bit of force thats why your shots when pulling the trigger are hitting low left.
@@travisp11 I'll Tell You Man The Shadow 2 is worth every penny but if you buy the spo1 you're getting just as fine of a gun for a lot less price not trying to talk you out of the Shadow 2 by any means but for the money if you're concerned about blowing the bank the spo1 is a great choice
