  1. And fava beans. Glad your situation was taken care of
  2. This is an image from LOK grips that shows the different frame sizes for Tanfoglio pistols. Since yours is a 9mm, it's probably a small frame, long length. Verify with the image below.

    Mag Surface Rust

    You can use one of the thermoset resins that are available like KG Gunkote or Norrell's MolyResin to coat them. If properly applied they can withstand 1000 hours in a salt spray test. Alternatively you can send them off to a place like Mahovsky's Metalife and have them plated with Nickel Boron or hard chrome.
  4. Just in case someone is interested in a Tanfoglio 9mm match conversion, there's one over on the AK files that seems to be a pretty good deal for $250 with a single mag. Additional mags are available. I was considering it for my elite match 10mm, but I really don't need another 9mm. Here's a link... https://www.akfiles.com/forums/showthread.php?t=402540&highlight=9mm+conversion I have no affiliation with the seller other than I inquired about it and decided not to purchase. If this is against the rules I apologize.
  5. Wolff springs go all the way up to 22lb for the full size Tanfo pistols. The Witness pistols have a different slide profile, more rounded and had a tendency to crack. Compare the Witness slide to the higher end Match pistol slides and they have more material in this area.
  6. I also purchased the LOK grips for my 10mm Elite match and they did not fit. Same fit as the EGD grips. I went with the Henning grips as well and they fit great.
  7. Are they actually color anodized or are they coated with a paint. If anodized maybe they did not seal them properly. Typically color anodizing is a dye that penetrates into the surface then it is sealed in a metal salt bath.
  8. There are some aftermarket ones that are urethane castings of the factory wood grips and that looks like them. Ebay has them.
  9. They definitely do not fit the Elite Match. Ask me how I know... LOK needs to tell people what it fits. They will definitely NOT fit the Elite Match or the Witness Large frame models. It WILL fit the square trigger guard models. I was told it would fit mine. I am now running Henning's smooth grips with some traction tape on them.
  10. I have a P1 standard and the only thing I would do is add the FO front sight which I believe the Ultra has. Plus the ultra has the nicer target rear sight as well. Mine is regulated at at 6 o'clock hold.
  11. Good deal. I would try to contact LPA directly and tell them of your woe's and see if they could cough up a few spare screws. I would include some of your pics. I'm sure someone there speaks English. info@lpasights.com If not you could try the US distributor http://www.fusionfirearms.com
  12. Did you stay with the stock front sight or did you switch it out? Thanks.
  13. I have an Elite Match that has the LPA MPS2TA30 adjustable sight on it. I am wondering who would be a good smith to have the slide modified to add a Supersight or a BoMar style sight? Any recommendations for an adjustable sight or should I go with the Henning fixed target sight? I would like to add the FO front but I don't think it will work with the stock LPA sight because it is taller and I may run out of elevation adjustment. Thanks.
  14. I would be interested. Will this be a drop in to work with the factory front or will a new front sight be required? Looks like it would be a lot taller than the factory.
  15. That's nice. If you run out of ammo you can stab them with the beaver tail. WOW! If you run out of ammo you can stab them with the beaver tail. Just curious if it does anything for recoil. Is that one of those Israeli police trades?
  16. I always keep my boxes. Should you happen to fall out of love with it or trade it off for something better it always increases the value, especially if it is something collectable.
  17. Definitely upgrade the springs if you will be shooting stout loads. Do the trigger job too.
  18. If that is the factory sight on your Q5, call Walther. Your pistol has a lifetime warranty and they will probably send you a complete rear sight assembly. 479-242-8500 EXT. 507 or email customerservice@waltherarms.com Be sure to include the pictures you show here.
  19. Talon does not make any grip tape for Grand Power pistols. Not sure why not but they don't. Hence the reference to Traction Grips and Springer Precision.
  20. As mentioned, Anodizing is for aluminum. The colors obtained are by dying the anodizing then sealing the finish. Best option is to probably a plating but not many are red. It will eventually wear through probably.
  21. EGW makes one that is integral with the plunger tube. It would require removal of the plunger tube and the grip would need to be inlet.
  22. I still got my Century Imported P1 Mk7. Works great. Bought a bunch of mags when J&G had them for cheap. Looking to put a FO front sight on it, just haven't decided which one.
