The CZ Shadow 2 Orange is the enhanced variant of the Shadow 2 series, built for precision and consistency. This 2021 example features a hand-fitted slide and frame with a fitted barrel bushing, a cold hammer-forged barrel, and an all-steel, full-length dust cover frame with an integral accessory rail. It comes with seven factory magazines and a complete factory kit, and is marked with matching serials and 2021 proof code.
Controls and ergonomics are competition-focused, including a tuned DA/SA trigger with short reset and over-travel adjustment, an extended and adjustable magazine release, and aggressive checkering on the front and backstrap. The sights are fast and precise: a red fiber-optic front in a dovetail paired with a HAJO-style click-adjustable rear. Orange-anodized checkered aluminum grips marked "ORANGE" complete the package.

The Shadow 2 Orange build emphasizes tight, repeatable lockup and smooth cycling. It uses a short-recoil, tilting-barrel operating system, with a cold hammer-forged barrel and a hand-fitted slide and frame. A fitted barrel bushing further refines barrel alignment. The steel frame and slide carry a nitride/polycoat finish, and the full-length dust cover with integral rail adds stability.
Controls are tailored for speed and consistency. The DA/SA, hammer-fired system features a curved trigger with an over-travel adjustment screw, tuned pull, and a short reset. The extended, adjustable magazine release aids rapid reloads. Safety features include a manual thumb safety and a half-cock notch.
The sighting system is competition-oriented: a red fiber-optic front sight in a dovetail and a HAJO-style serrated rear that is click-adjustable for elevation and drift-adjustable. The slide includes front and rear cocking serrations and an anti-glare top rib for confident manipulation and sight focus.
Ergonomics and handling are supported by checkering on both the front strap and backstrap, and orange-anodized checkered aluminum grips marked "ORANGE" with CZ medallions. This pistol bears importer and origin marks (CZ-USA, Kansas City, KS; MADE IN CZECH REPUBLIC), a 2021 proof/year code on the slide, and matching serial numbers on the slide, frame, and barrel hood.
Dimensions and capacity support its full-size role: a 4.89 in barrel, 8.53 in overall length, 46.5 oz weight, and a 19+1 capacity. The package includes seven factory magazines and the original CZ case with accessories, offering a complete setup.
