Does anyone know how to fix Tanfoglio Open Gun Issues?
Earthpig replied to Earthpig's topic in Tanfoglio (EAA / IFG)
Yes after looking at the sear cage ejector the height of the rear of the Xtreme ejector was was significantly different than the 9mm sear cage ejector on all my other tanfos and it was slightly bent to towards the ejector port. Thus wis where the nose of the bullet would get stuck towards. I changed it and will test this afternoon. Fingers crossed -

Does the ejector matter? I figured they are mostly the same on all tanfos. I mean I have 7 and all sear cages look alike only difference are the Xtreme hard chromed ones -

No. It’s an entire 9mm Domina upper. No .40 parts on it -

Ok Just to Clarify. it is a Limited Custom Extreme Frame and an Exclusive nature domina 9mm upper assembly. Not a .40 slide converted or anything. It’s a legit tanfoglio domina 9mm upper Slide barrel spring guide rod and slide racker assembled. From IFG -

Brother, thanks for the response. ok so I have already replaced the extractor Spring with an extra power spring. whats the usual OAL folks are using on these guns. I see 1.140 to 1.160. The gun seemed to work fine when loading at 1.60 but the nose of the bullet started striking either the top of the barrel hood or the side by the extractor. Now that you mention it maybe stroking the slide may solve the issue is this a common practice? thanks -
So, I put together a X-Treme limited custom Frame from a .40 cal limited gun and a Domina upper slide and barrel. The gun was working fine for the first few months. This is what is doing. -Feeds first round from the magazine perfectly. - JAM! the nose of the bullet gets stuck on the right-hand side of the barrel chamber during rapid fire. - JAM the nose of the bullet get stuck on the upper lip of the chamber. Im running: -8LB recoil spring. - 8.1 HS6 under 124 gr RN bullets at 1.160 OAL. - MBX, Factory K9s with extensions, Factory 170mm 25 rounders MAGS same issues with all mags. -Tried 1.164 the problem was worst. -the past two matches have been terrible. I compete with Tanfoglio in CO, Production, and Limited. those guns never had these issues. can anyone HELP. thanks.

Update. thanks for the advise. finally got the gun at final stages. -MBX mags work great as long as you close the front portion of the feedlips. -Mecgar Mags with TF basepads and grams followers are also working well. - Final recoil spring rate 9lbs with 172 PF loads. -very accurate gun and returns great. - Get the Tony System Comp. It makes the gun shoot way softer. so far so good -

Well, so far so good. Ran it on my first Match. The gun ran well but the Tanfoglio 170 mags had some issues. I used the K9 Mags with TF basepads and they worked well the rest of the match. -

However, call them and make sure they will fit the small frames. No experience with that since all my Tanfos are LF -
Question on Cajun Floating Trigger Pin and Trigger Spring
Earthpig replied to DenC's topic in Tanfoglio (EAA / IFG)
I use them on all my tanfos it makes it easy to change out springs. about breakage. I usually replace every 6 months considering the use in dryfire and when the trigger feels too light. Only had breakage a few breakages over 4 yrs of using Stock 2s, 3s and Lim Customs. -
I second the PD grips

Im currently running a buddy’s CK in 9 major with MBX Mags and no issues. The main thing is I know some guys run the Tanfos and just want to see what h setup so no major cash is waisted on bad mags. However I can attest the MBX are awesome for 2011s -
