Actually, it's not a conversion kit at all. It's a straight-up 22 cal, out-of-the-box CZ pistol; frame was never anything but a 22. That's the real unicorn factor.
That's really cool. What threw me off was the frame and the box. I'm not sure when CZ updated their rollmark from, 'Made In Czechoslovakia' to 'Made In Czech Republic' but I think it was during the early 90's after the wall came down? Same with the box. I'm not sure when they updated from the cardboard box over the Styrofoam insert to the more familiar plastic box with the CZ logo on it. Either way, it's a great piece of CZ history.
I also like the 82/83 when some refinishing work is done. They look so much better afterwards.
Just for the sake of completeness, for those who might be interested, the box illustrated contained the familiar plastic box, no styro.
CZC Bull Shadow 2
The Bull Shadow 2 fits a CZ Custom Bull Shadow upper to a CZ Shadow 2 lower. This particular example has been converted to SAO and fitted with a CZ Custom flat aluminum trigger, had a trigger job performed with extra tweaking for SAO, and among other goodies, a competition hammer and a short reset disconnector.
Not exactly sure what it is about this pistol that makes recovery time between shots seem like there isn't any (at all) but, I didn't even bother turning-on the Venom's red dot and yet had no problem consistently hitting steel targets at 10-12 yards. Only had time for 100 rounds today but, it was very impressive to put it mildly.
Yeah great color combo!

I'm in love

+1 That Shadow looks great!
That’s pretty.
I want to do something like that to my P-01. My eyes aren't what they used to be.
Hadn't seen a new matte stainless 75 for sale in quite a while. One of these days I'll know to stay away from Engage. Too many cool toys!
That is gorgeous. If I tripped over one of these with a decocker in a shop it would be hard to go home without it.
Sadly, CZ builds the stainless 75 only with manual, ambidextrous thumb safeties. It would be nice, though, to see them come out with either a stainless SP-01 or a 75 Compact.
I think a Stainless SP-01 would be awesome!
Zzzzz_man, you just saved me a lot of money!
