Not to mention the most recent Tanfos, with the redesigned slide serrations, are ugly AF.
-
Shame about the goofy slide cuts and back serrations the more recent Tanfos have gone to. It's disappointing to me as a fan of Italian design. Looks like a great CO tool, otherwise.

I've always shot CZs and Tanfos. I usually carry a Grand Power p11 Mk12 when I can wear a cover garment. It's just a good in between size yet shoots like a larger gun, with 13 rounds at the ready. Walther PPS M2 when it's super hot and just in a t-shirt. Winter-time and have a coat, a CZ PCR with a 16 round mag+ sp-01 basepad.

Sounds like you might have the over-travel screw too tight, not enough free play.

How reliable are colt mag guns?
pivoproseem replied to MemphisMechanic's topic in Pistol Caliber Carbine
Metalform/PSA mags are better than the ASC mags. The springs are a bit too stiff in the ASCs, and they are more roughly made. No issues with with metalforms in my BCP lower, Faxon bolt, Vltor upper, and Ballistic Advantage barrel. I need practice doing mag changes. -
This has the battery accessible through the side. https://kalinkaoptics.com/rifle-scopes/red-dot/kobra-gen-3-red-dot-weaver-screw.html

new Limited Customs small frame arrive in Europe
pivoproseem replied to Fasthenk65's topic in Tanfoglio (EAA / IFG)
Those new slide cuts are terrible looking. -
I run an 8-moa click, also bought on Amazon a few years ago -$$cheap$$-I think it's the perfect size. I'm some what interested in trying out a Russian made Kobra sight. It has 4 different reticles and easy to zero than a C-more. They make one powered by a CR2 lithium battery which should last a long time. I've used one on a AK years ago.

Geez, Tanfoglio needs to keep their polymer gun designer away from the steel guns.
-
I had issues with a Limited and had to re-profile the mag catch.

Quality-wise, the TS will be superior to the Tanfo. You can never tell what will be wrong with a Tanfo until you get it and examine it closely and tear it down.Some parts of the Tanfo are just ..rough. I went from a .40 Match (old style, non-rail dust cover with Supersight cut) to a Limited, to a TS, then to CZ Standard IPSC (deal I couldn't refuse, was just going to shoot the .40 Match again) then back to a Limited. The Limited fits my hand better than the TS, which has a wider beaver-tail. The Limited is closer to an SP-01 grip. The TS has a superior trigger.
-
If you put thin grips on it, you may want to chop the mag release button as it will be too tall. You'll be accidentally dropping mags constantly.
-
It shouldn't bind. Are you checking it unassembled, out of the gun?
-
Mag catch is fubar, most likely, You're going to need to take it out and trim it.

Ramshot Competition??

I bought a P11 Mk12 back in the winter. I've run a few hundred rounds through it, no issues. My first GP, and I was impressed by the quality. Shoots like a larger gun. The only things I don't like about it is the shape of the trigger, it's slightly odd, and the safety is a bit hard to swipe. I shot mine in ESP one match and did pretty well considering I'd only put about 50 rounds through the gun. It comes with different height front sights and I needed to put the +1 on my gun. I had a local guy make a pancake holster for it, RLN Custom Gear.

Dark blue like Henning used to offer, not electric blue like Frenchy or SSI makes.

Tanfo Limited similarity to CZ TS?
pivoproseem replied to Rudukai13's topic in Tanfoglio (EAA / IFG)
I've had both. The Limited is closer to how an SP-01 feels. The TS has a wider beavertail and doesn't fit my hand as well. The TS trigger is awesome though. I'm shooting a Limited with old style Henning grips now. -
New Tanfo's announced HiT Show Italy!
pivoproseem replied to Fasthenk65's topic in Tanfoglio (EAA / IFG)
The Stock 1 is fugly. That beavertail is ridiculous and who ordered finger grooves? -
SPS Pantera! 9mm Budget conscious 2011 clone
pivoproseem replied to P.E. Kelley's topic in 1911-style Pistols
I thought SPS was made in Spain, not Philippines. -
I can shoot both fairly well. The Limited has the nicer grip,especially when paired with original style Henning grips. The thing I do not like about the TS is the width of the beaver tail. It just doesn't fit my hand like a Tanfo, or an SP-01. The stock trigger is incredible on the TS, though. If you have small hands, I don't think the TS will work without grip reduction.

CZ sight cuts on the newest models, I didn't know until after I got my sight from Dawson, since they don't show a photo of the FO sight that shows the bottom of the sight. The cross pin isn't in the exact location, but it will work with mods.
