Started out about 18 months ago shooting Production with about 20,000 other beginners! Have shot, practiced and learned a lot over that time, but Production seems overly crowded. I'm still not sure what other classes a stock CZ SP-01 would qualify to shoot in, or what the advantages and drawbacks of the other classes might be.

At age 59, I'm shooting strictly to improve skills, not for money or prizes. Any insights or suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

The CZ makes a great production gun. That said, you could shoot it in Limit 10 (minor). Load the magazines to capacity and shoot Limited (minor). Heck, you could shoot the gun in Open with the 26 round magazines Angus sells. The only divisions you can't shoot the gun in are Single Stack and Revolver. I'd probably just stick with Production or shoot Limited (minor) and load my mags to capacity.

+1 limited minor is alot of fun.

Limited and Limited 10 are a lot of fun with an SP01. You will give up some on points, but that really doesn't matter. its all fun.

If you shoot L10..you change nothing..if you shoot Limited..you can add some inexpensive basepads and get 23 or so rounds into your mags..

Don't forget: for L or L-10 you get to start SA

for IPSC or USPSA?

for IPSC, as stated, it is a perfect gun for Production. however you could shot it in minor in Standard (Limited USPSA) or Open Division.

+1 to shooting it in anything but SS and Revolver.

P.S. guns are by divisions, shooters are by class. R,
