Tanfoglio Slide Cut

Good day! just a noob question. I'm new to optics. I have a non OR stock 2 xtreme and I just mount it with dovetail plate made from a local gun smith. It works great but its kinda high. I want to cut the slide and mill it to make it lower. If I do this it will affect the firing safety pin? just making sure before I send it to the gunsmith. And ipsc match inspect tanfos firing safty pin.

Compatibility question

When my father passed away, I inherited his Witness-P-S 9mm. I'm looking for simple additions like more clips and a holster. Will I need to specifically buy Tanfoglio clips or is there another type of handgun clip that would be compatible? I've heard that this model is based on a Sig Sauer design and was wondering if there could be possible interchange? Any knowledge anybody can give would be greatly appreciated.

WooHoo! Slide is back from Patriot Defense where it got milled for the 507 Comp. Grips (Palm Swell) from Patriot Defense as well. I love this platform!!!!!! Picked up some spare mags from Greg Cote and we are all set!

Question for the committee: I'm new to the Tanfoglio platform and have picked up a Limited Master in 9mm. It's at Patriot Defense being milled for an optic now. I read somewhere the frame is from the Stock 3. I'm looking for competition holsters that will work in USPSA. Any suggestions?

Im left handed. Help me out. Do i choose stock 3 p or witness p Pro match?

I saw the tanfoglio stock 3 P and fell in love with it a first sight. Gotta have one….. then i found out they don’t ship with ambi safeties.

I have discovered that there is a witness p Pro match as well and they are very similar. It appears that it comes with an ambi safety.

If they are nearly identical physically, what makes them different? Why is the stock 3 p $200-$300 more? Is there a better trigger or something in it?

Would it be wise to get the witness p and with the money saved, get a red dot and mount?

Im new here, be kind hahha

Edit: i already have a steel frame 2011. Don’t need another steel frame pistol in the collection. I really really want a polymer frame for the purpose of low maintenance and weight reduction.

Witness Hunter vs Gold Match guide rod

I just picked up my Gold Match in 10mm today and was surprised when the guide rod was aluminum. Obviously there isn't a ton of information out there on these but I was expecting steel. Just wanted to know if the witness Hunter guide is steel and if it's possible to find one somewhere. They do seem to be the only ones that have the shelf instead of divot to index the barrel.

Tanfoglio Stock 2 OR vs CZ Shadow 2 OR? In-depth comparison

Hi there,

next year I get my permit and I am planning my first purchase(s).

I shoot the Stock 3 since march and I shot the Shadow 2 once. And liked it. But it was not enough to get a good comparison. It makes sense to stick to Tanfoglio ... but if I can get a "better" gun, I would switch.

I want to IPSC my gun(s) because shooting guns stationary is boring.

Normally I would go for the gun most people (and a bunch in my club) own/recommend.

When I went to the range on Monday a buddy of mine told me, that the frame of the Tanfos are not casted (does the S2 have the same 7075 Aluminum like the compact?). I can't find anything about the frame material of the Tanfos at all. Can someone tell me the exact material used? The informations of my buddy made me google a bit deeper and found out (I am open for corrections):

  • Since I want OR I need to stick to the Stock 2.
  • Due to the bull barrel the gun can shoot even the cheapest ammunition precisely.

The S2 has a longer/heavier slide/barrel and a traditional rifled barrel. Is the accuracy of the Stock 2 compatible with the S2 (orange?) without bushing?

  • It seems to be better to have more weight on the barrel (Tanfo) vs the slide (S2) > less mass = faster getting back on the target.

Is this assumption in this comparison correct?

  • Tanfos have a pin stop. CZs does not.
  • Aftermarket support is equally good (I live in the EU).
  • Tanfos have a smoother action but the S2 has the better trigger (in parts due to the lack of a pin stop).

How difficult is it to bring the Tanfos to the S2 level (and beyond with xtreme triggers)?

  • I read that tuning Tanfos is more difficult than CZs (S2). Is that true?
  • I saw pictures of the S2 finish peeling off the slide due to the use of holster. Is that an "old" problem?

In summery: I am full aware that I Tanfo-biased people, but I want to give the S2 the benefit of a doubt 😁 If the general characteristics of the gun (balancing, smoothness) is better and a trigger tuning brings the Tanfo on a S2 level, it seems to be a no-brainer to get a Tanfo Stock 2 OR, right?

Down right un-American

I took the metric mafia to the range today.

Tanfoglio Xtreme and MAC were first time shoots and both ran fantastically OOTB.

I got the zero perfect on the MAC without any shots by laser bore sighting it for 15 yards. I had done HareTr!gger custom upgrade of the MAC and it paid off. 2.5# trigger lightened recoil to 12#, mainspring 17#, SS FLGR polished ignition, installed red dirt Cheely C3 in blue, 1.5mm overtravel and reset. Lower recoil than the Bul Tac pro and $1,500 less even with my upgrades.

Bul was a tad off zero now it’s dead bang, and taking nothing away from it. It is a fine pistol.

Tanfoglio Gumar 10mm excellent as always though edged out by her little brother the Bomb Pop Xtreme, also 10mm.

500 rounds between all and was BEautiful northeast day to shoot, 70 and breezeless fall day.

New (to me) Tanfoglio Stock III Xtreme in 9x19mm

Hi guys, hope you're doing well. Today's a big day for me, I tured 18 this year and, since I live in France, I can legally buy a handgun. Since I had no point to get a CCW since you can't carry in France, I choose to get a IPSC gun, a guy at my local range had a Sock 3 Xtreme in sale. Yesterday, I asked him to try it. Was one of the best guns I've ever shot. I was interested in why did he get a Tanfo over a CZ, he answered me just like that : "Eric Grauffel is a close friend of mine and he sold my this pistol when I started Production IPSC." Not to say how stunted I was, I then asked him why is he selling it, he told me : "well, just upgraded to a Domina Xtreme." I was like : okay, when can I buy the Stock III, about 2 hours ago it was finally mine. I ordered Ghost Civilian 3G holster (only one available) + drop belt system and 3 Ghost mag pouches. Gonna start IPSC soon and, see you then guys, farewell

Brought home a 1st Place ESP in Sharp Shooter this weekend!

Very surprised I did as well as I did. I was staff, and shot both matches in one day. This was the second match after a lackluster performance for the optics match. I’ll share that video later.

4th ESP out of 32.

14th overall out of 92.

Holster for Gold Match

I bought a Tanfoglio Gold Match OR in 10 mm and am having a terrible time finding any holsters online. No one has any locally that would fit it either. It seems this gun is pretty uncommon and none of the big names online have any holsters for it. Anyone know where I could find one, or will I need to get someone to make it custom?
