Why not? I hate BUYING bullets, so I enjoy my hobby of casting them> I see no reason not to use my home cast powder coated projectiles in my newest fun toy, the CZ Scorpion EVO S-1 pistol?
It started out stock, with the only thing I did was moving the hand stop back for a different feel on the grip.

That was very strange but fun to shoot, with one teeny problem.

See where the safety digs into the trigger finger knuckle? That was painful, very uncomfortable. I ended up not waiting for the now ubiquitous Safety Delete from CZ-USA that solves that problem neatly - no, I removed it with a HACKSAW! Bubba strikes again. I played with the CZ supplied single point sling - this thing has so many adjustments, buckles and such that it was almost impossible to figure out. See, we never had slings like this when I was in the service 30 years ago. :) It did work out.
