    CZ SP-01 Shadow Breech Face dent

    Question is, what might have caused this dent - same dent in all photos, just different angles and then circled in red. Can definitiely feel a drop in to the dent. Has anyone seen something like this before? Is it a safety issue? Haven't fired it yet. Any guidance appreciated. Name:  IMG_2939.jpeg

    I suspect it is nothing more than a slight milling cutter 'wobble' when the breech face was machined and shouldn't have any impact on the operation of the pistol. The range of pistols based on the old CZ75 have proven themselves to be solid, reliable pistols. I got one in 1975, and today I still use a Tanfoglio clone which never misses a beat. Unless the gun is giving reliability problems I wouldn't worry about that small blemish, just enjoy shooting it!

    Thanks @gundoc appreciate the check! I’m looking forward to taking this out on Sunday and seeing how it goes. As long as it’s reliable I’ll be happy, parts seem to be easy enough to come by.
