Why Competition Shooters Choose the TS 2 Orange
Having run this pistol through 3,000+ rounds at our Spring TX test range, the hand-fitted slide-to-frame fit stands out immediately. The single-action trigger breaks like glass at 1.8 lbs on our test sample – lighter than most 1911 race guns. The extended beavertail and undercut trigger guard give you a grip that locks into your hand like it was molded there.

Who Should Buy This Pistol
Buy it if: You compete in IPSC Standard or USPSA Limited division and want a ready-to-race pistol. The TS 2 Orange comes pre-tuned with features that would cost $500+ to add to a Shadow 2.
Skip it if: You need a concealed carry pistol (consider the CZ P-01) or want to save money on a practice gun (the CZ Shadow 2 offers 90% of the performance for less).
