I have a P-10C that is my farm gun. It’s always on my hip, never gets cleaned and is constantly covered in mud, dirt and s#!t. It’s been 100% reliable and I trust it completely. My only complaint is the chamber is incredibly short (worse than my Shadow 2). So I have to load my rounds very short with it being the limiting factor as it’s the shortest chamber of all my 9mms.

GB is so inflated right now, I don’t know how anyone buys from there.

What is going on with Stock 2 & 3 prices ?
Elcidaviator replied to IHAVEGAS's topic in Tanfoglio (EAA / IFG)
No they are a great company to deal with. I’ve bought a few pistols from them without issue. -

Elcidaviator replied to IHAVEGAS's topic in Tanfoglio (EAA / IFG)
I just picked up a Stock 2 $860 new. Deals can be had if you can wait. -
Gents, I feel your pain. I left Comifornia last month. I must say it felt great seeing that “Welcome to Nevada” sign and knowing that I’ll never have to deal with that ridiculousness again. keep up the good fight gents

I’ve ended up selling most of my plastic guns for all steel guns. They just tend to be more fun to shoot on the range and in my eyes they’re more attractive. There’s nothing like seeing a lineup of a CZ, Jericho and Tangfolio. With that said, I still have a few plastic firearms that serve very practical purposes that my all steel guns cannot.

What’s the difference in the width between the two hammers. I thought the Stock III was a little wider. please report back after you’ve tested this out. I’m very interested in your results.

So my pistol will come in on Saturday. I don’t know if I’ll do a restoration, resurface it with either cold blue or brown it or just do some trigger work and cerekote it. Before I start the process does anyone have a good place to buy Tangfolio small frame parts? I’ve been browsing Ben Stoeger’s website, but I can’t determine what parts are small/large frame and what parts are interchangeable.
-
I thought about using it as a fun production gun (backup to my S2), bit I don’t know if it’s legal since it’s an 941F, SAO. Converting it to SA/DA I don’t think it would be on the production list. I may be wrong, I need to read in the rule book/production list.
-
I’m picking one of these up today. I’d like to keep it SAO, but I’d like to change the trigger to make it a Master Model B look-a-like. Craig, you seem to be the Jericho SME on the model 941F. Will all Tanfo triggers work in the Jericho? Do the parts have to be for a small frame? Thanks in advance for the help. I’m a newb in the Tanfo world.

If you want something comparable in the same price range I’d look into both the Stock 3 Extreme and Walther Q5 Match SF. I think you’d be happy with any one of those guns. If your trying to save some coin for mags, belt, holster, mag pouches etc. I’d look into the Shadow 2 or Eaa stock 2/3 or even the Q5. I’ve only shot Walthers and CZ in USPSA. I enjoyed them both for different reasons.

Buy tons of mags for all the reloads! Definitely a fun division. Makes you think like one of the wheel gun guys and really puts an emphasis on stage planning and making your shots count.

RIA pro match ultra 40 vs STI Edge for limited
Elcidaviator replied to BamaShooter88's topic in 1911-style Pistols
I’d go with a used STI or a CZ TSO. The advantage to the TSO is you can buy a 9mm upper for 600ish and the. Have a nice 3 gun pistol as well. I’ve never shot the RIA because I never see them. That might tell you something. Just my $.02 -
I don’t like using a dremel for undercutting trigger guards. I don’t think they come out as nice and tend to be uneven. I prefer to use a dowel rod with sand paper or emery cloth wrapped around it. It doesn’t take to long and you’ll get a nice countored undercut.
-
It looks beautiful, but I can’t figure out the intended use. Do they expect to sell enough to get on the production list? I think the real market for a production gun is a pistol that Can be shot in production and carry optics by swapping a slide. This is way to heavy for that.
-
FWIW, my amateur polishing on an SP-01 with cajunized interals has a much better trigger than my Shadow 2. However, I think the Shadow 2 has more potential with better ergonomics.
-
Throw a bull upper on it and convert to single action.
-
Are you only interested in 2011s? Any reason the CZ TSO is not on your list? Not pushing that way, just curious.

Please teach me your gypsy magic.

Thanks brother! That makes it easy.

Here’s the other side. I can’t get the forum to accept my URLs for my photos so you have to follow the links...sorry. https://photos.app.goo.gl/OPUbgC57dwPdVirx1

So since I’ve decided to hot blu the pistol, I have to take it to a mirror finish. This is a lot more metal work, but will look beautiful once it’s blued. Here’s so photos from today. The frame is almost done. The trigger is high cut, the beaver tail is reshaped, and the magwell is blended. I even slapped on the grips I got to see how it will look when finished. https://photos.app.goo.gl/QSNx2aiy58X83SJf1

Does anyone know if they are going to sell just the upper? I’d like to know sooner than later, just to keep an eye out on a cheap 75 (or even surplus).
-
It’s been enjoyable. I wish I was better about posting the progress here. It’s far from those last pics. It’s such a pain resizing photos to upload, Its hard to find time to do so.
-
I found some grips thanks to a member on here. if anyone has some sights laying around PM me. I think I’m going to have to go to a fiber optic front sight just because my dad can’t see very well.
