I did not received anything at this point...
I have heard about the longslide from a French gunsmith which has received an email directly from the factory...
-
someone has received his new modified V12 after the problem with shaving lugs ?
Because it seems that it will have now a long slide instead of the short one !
-
Does someone has received their new V12 upper from italy ?
I 've heard that there will have some modification on the slide lenght...
-
Good news for the V12.....i am waiting a new one since 5 month........
I hope this time it will run perfectly !
-
If you do buy one, I would send it to a gunsmith to have the gun
checked for proper barrel fitting!!Make sure the gunsmith fires a major load then check the gun.
Buy the gun only in 38 super. Beautiful blaster!
Does the wrong barrel/slide luggs fitting has been solved on the V12 ?
Yes! according to Eric Grauffel and Henning Wallgreen, they have made changes at the factory in Italy.
One must be careful in the U.S as some must be repaired. You wont know until you really
shoot the gun and inspect it. I would order one from Italy to get the good ones.
Good new, they finally find the problem...i am very curious about what they've changed !

I was very surprise by the dot bounce with the factory setup.......i thank that is was a ery flat shooting pistol, but in reality, the dot bounce for me is far less with a STI grandmaster for example.
I will try the Sprinco when it will be availiable.

I've just tested my new setup today, and most of the time, the slide don't chamber the last ammo...What should i do ??
is it not stripping it at all? a little more description would be good.. what spring and follower are you using?
Leo
Look at the subject 38SA mag for My tanfoglio gold custom
The slide lock back as if the mag is empty....but there is still one cartrigue !

Grauffel is working on sprinco recoil reducer that will be available in his website by Dec.
that will help 50% reduction on the dot bounce. I have tried 10lbs recoil spring and cut 2 coils.
it soften the recoil a bit. You can google up the conversion of the factory springs from kg to lbs.
I did not find the data for the factory spring...
Why did you cut 2 coils on the 10lbs spring ?
-
hi,
do you know what is the weight of the recoil spring from the factory ?
I feel my gun has a very soft straight back recoil, but the dot bounce is important.....Do you think it will shoot flater with a 10lbs Wolff spring ???
I am a little bit worry to damaged the pistol with a softer spring....(i shoot 168-170 PF).
Thank

Hi,
i actually use N105 with my Tanfoglio hybrid V12 pistol at 169 PF
Do you think the pistol will shoot flatter with 3N38 powder ?
Thank you
-
I 've taked out the extractor of my pistol in order to do the prep...
But it seems than the "deep" is already more or less 0.045" ?? Does it make sense ?
It is written 9 on it.....Does it means that it is for 9mm ammo ?
Thank for your help
-
The quality check at the factory seems really poor !
-
Not a V12 but I saw on the IPSC forum that serval folks were talking about it happening on their non-V12s so figured I would pipe in.
Yes that's right.
Now i am little worried about ordering one....and it seems that there is no clear response from tanfoglio's dealer about this issue !
-
Not on mine with about 5k rounds on it.
You own the V12 shorty ?
-
Have you ever experienced this problem ?
-
I have also read, that the ambi safety is better suited for large hand & long fonger.....Why ? is the design really different ?
-
Ok
eric say to use 9mm extractor for 38 rimless. What do you think ?
My mags will come from factory (i live in europe)...What do you think about using Grams follower with spring in factory magazine ?
Thank
-
Hi,
i will receive my tanfoglio eric 2007 gold custom in few week.
What are the necessary upgrade to do it very reliable ?
Furthermore, i will shoot 38 super comp.....Do i need to change the extractor ?
Thank

What can I say? I have large large hands with short fingers. Recently recieved my Tanfoglio Gold Team Eric Model from Mr. Wallgren and can only say that the rest of the Open shooters don't know what they are misssing shooting the STI/SVI/Caspian?Para models. This gun is exactly what is promised OUT-OF-THE-BOX Open go to the Range and shoot gun. I added one of Henning's scope mounts + C-More with his 140mm 24 rd and 170mm 29 rounders and shot the shit out of this gun. It has a 3 1/2 lb trigger pull and fits your hand like a glove!!! You use 38 TJ brass and YOU WILL SHOOT 100% RELIABLE!!! The blast from the new V-12 configuration is HUGE but the gun tracks like a light saber. 1" groups are yours to have with smaller to come with practice! $ for $, it can't be beat and really does draw attention at the range.
I think i will buy the same pistol....What do you think about muzzle flip compare to other STI/SVI/2011 ?
-
Do you think tanfo witness handgun are best suited for small hand than large ones ?
-
It will be for IPSC rules.
Yes, it will be my first open.
The gunsmith recommend me to drill 2 holes (Trubor T-2 barrel) for flatter shooting.....for him, the STI comp is not very effective to reduce muzzle flip.
Honestly, i think i would prefer a barrel without hole...but it's only a subjective as i can't compare both
-
Hello,
I am going to order a custom open pistol with the main spec of the STI grandmaster.
I would like to put some holes in the barrel for flat shooting.
How many holes do you advise me ? Which size ?
I was thinking 2 or 3......
Thank

I am agree with you.....but, you buy a short open, and after warranty issue, they give you back a long one......Very astonishing !
