I just received it today from prepers gunshop (first time ordering from them and they shippednoy gasg) and I'm loving it already bigchillin..matter of fact I just got this scorpion a few days ago aswell and haven't shot it yet.i have always wanted to get me a scorpion but I have always put it off and almost always ended up getting a different gun/rifle with the money..when I saw that gearhead works was coming out with this tail hook kit,that's when i stopped putting the scorpion on hold and put my search for one in overdrive..
I must say this brace is really all that and then some..i guess because it uses the actual factory stock/cheek rest..after installing it today,I was playing operator and clearing rooms in my house while my wife looked at me like I was crazy hahaha..this brace kit is damn near like the real deal stock and now that batf will not be sending us peasant to prison for shouldering it, that just makes it all the better lol..
I will stop short of recommending it because I haven't shot the gun yet but so far from the feel,fit and finish I'll give it a solid A+

My new CZ Scorpion EVO pistol
My new CZ Scorpion EVO pistol. Here's what I've done so far...
1. HB Industries Reduced Weight Trigger Pack (purchased drill bit and screw also).
2. PAKSE Pathfinder Pistol Grip (Stippled with an etcher... very light but very effective).
3. CZ Custom Shop Folding adapter.
4. Shockwave buffer tube and Blade brace (added rare earth magnet so it stays folded like the factory stock)
5. Midwest industries buffer tube sling mount.
6. Right side safety delete.
7. Thread adapter to 1/2x28 (actual barrel nut replacement with threads)
8. Extended Charging Handle (Also stippled with etcher)
9. TLR1 Weaponlight
10. Magpul handstop
11. Holosun (circle dot & solar) red dot sight with riser to use iron sights. (I've tried others... it holds zero and has never been any issue).
Upcoming modifications (more pictures coming with mods!)
1. AK style Safety levers (looked at the push button safety also)
2. CZ M-LOK Carbine Handguard (to partially shroud suppressor)
3. TLR1 door and pressure tape switch
4. CZ Barrel Cooler
5. Polymer M-LOK rail sections
6. HB Industries Duckbill Magazine Release
POSSIBLE FUTURE upgrades...
1. Possible SB Tactical SBTEVO Arm Brace (replace the blade)
2. Possible Manticore Arms Bull-Nose Transformer Foreend
3. Possible HK Diopter sights to replace factory iron sights
4. Griffen 3-Lug Muzzle Device
5. SILENCERCO OCTANE 3-LUG MOUNT
My review... Recoil is a little more than anticipated but very very manageable (I attribute it to the short barrel). I have the YetiWorks pistol grip on my Scorpion Carbine and love it... however with this build I wanted to be able to do things I wouldn't do to a $50 or $60 grip! The angle on the PAKSE Pathfinder Pistol Grip is great and it feels very similar to an AR grip. My suppressor is actually a Silencerco Octane .45 ACP suppressor and I believe its actually MORE QUIET than the 9mm on this firearm. I tried the INFORCE WML, but decided on the TLR1 because of the switch position relevant to my finger position (which will of course change with the carbine handguard, but that's why I went with the door and pressure switch replacement).
The threads for the pistol are the factory barrel nut that is threaded at 1/2x28 to receive the suppressor (So an "adapter" isn't really needed). I'm thinking about going with the Octane three lug connector on the suppressor so I have a quick detach mount. The Extended charging handle is a MUST and allows for better optic placement without smashing your knuckes on whatever you mount to the rail (though you do need to account for the handle... i.e. mounting a PEQ-15 would overlap and not allow you to stow the charging handle and hold the bolt open). Everyone knows about the safety delete and why it is a necessity... however, I don't like only being able to use one side for activating/deactivating the safety... the AK style safeties are GREAT, however, they work a little in reverse which takes some getting used to (UP is fire, down is safe). It does make it a little easy to remember because it partially interrupts your ability to put your finger in the trigger guard without flipping the safety up.
The AK Style Duckbill Magazine release allows for the factory style release but adds the tab feature for removal of the magazine in one swift motion (without the AK rock also!)
I added the midwest industries clamp-on sling mount because I like the placement of the sling near the rear of the receiver (near the castle nut) just like an AR. The folding adapter from CZ Custom shop is perfect! I don't know if it's $240 perfect... but it is amazing. the Shockwave Blade buffer tube is better than most pistol buffer tubes I've seen... there's even a mod to the screw that would enable fast collapsing/extending of the brace as needed (I opted out of this mod). The Rifle Stock utilizes the serial number plate and a magnet to hold the stock in the folded position... I JB Welded a rare earth magnet in the appropriate spot to have this same functionality with the brace, otherwise it just flaps in the wind with no holdback. Also, given that my sling point is on the folding end of the adapter, it stays folded!
I went with the Holosun mainly for the Solar and circle/cross/dot reticle (like an EOTech). I also kept the high riser so that I could use the iron sights as a backup even if the red dot is cracked or glass is unusable. Yes I thought of Co-Witnessing it... but preferred the ability to see the irons no matter what happened to the optic.
I'm still on the fence with SBR'ing it to look exactly like the Carbine (markings on the suppressor are even the same!)
I hope this helps anyone thinking of these upgrades or purchasing a scorpion. If you have any questions, just ask! I will post more pictures as I perform any future modifications.

Just FYI... the carbine handguard comes with the carbine barrel nut. However, you will need a specific socket that is about 12 inches long. Also, the existing barrel nut (pistol) can be taken off with a crescent wrench.

I’m putting my pictures of my 1917 production 1911 model of US Army back up sense I closed out my photobucket account and am in the process of moving everything to imgur.com, better people.
I’ve been looking to retire my 1917production 1911 model of US Army for some time. I really didn’t want a new Colt or one of the overpriced copies out there. So in 2000 I bought a Sig P220-45 from a friend of mine who had a FFL but has sense moved out of state. I was thinking it would replace my 1911, but it didn’t nothing like my 1911. In 2016 still looking for a 45acp pistol to replace my 1917-1911 with, I came across the SAR K2-45. The price was right, so I bought one. It’s a 14+1 rounder, 14 in the mag plus 1 in the pipe. That I liked. After I liberated it from my LGS I hit my back yard range. I loaded all five mages, the one that came with it and the four extras I had bought. I loaded them with a mix of HB and JHP to see how it worked. Now this thing is nice. Started out at 50yds and walked in to 20ft, not one miss, not one FTF or FTE. The SAR K2-45 is a CZ-97 clone. Now this has replaced my 1911.
I primarily OC so these are my OC holsters.

This 20 shoots so sweet now!
(New slide work and stippling)
Super flat.
Well balanced with extended mag base plate (2 extra rounds).
Super tacky with new stippling!
Off hand, Shooters ledges is a great addition (shouldn't have stippled that entire ledge, my off hand thumb isn't happy with me)
Makes my 19 look like a 43, lol....

Nice collection!
Based on that patch is LSC a new IPSC/USPSA club or something?
You need more glocks!
If I had Facebook I would join LSC, but unfortunately no Fb for me
