    It may catch at half cock but the real test is once it's there and the trigger is pulled on with substantial pressure will it drop. It may be fine as it is but I believe that's how it is tested for full function.

     

    it appears EAA do not have captive half-cock notches

  2. What are your thoughts on pre travel of the trigger? Is it a good idea to remove as much as possible? I finished putting a BOLO disconnector in a Tanfoglio and am wondering if I should take more material off to create more pre travel or if this is fine / safe? Thanks

     

     

     

  3. if you buy a Tanfoglio and have any problems people will blame the design and that you should have got a 2011 even though there are threads in this section about 2011's with similar problems

     

    if you plan on competing with it you will have to work twice as hard to get half the respect as a 2011 or Czechmate

     

  4. Tanfoglio has 38 super / comp option if that is your likening 

     

    It doesn't have the small safety detent and springs like CZ when taking the gun apart

     

    It is possible to limit all pre travel in a Tanfoglio - I never seen a Czechmate hammer with a disconnector hole

    The X5 rod may work, but it’ll probably stick out of the slide and shorten the slides stroke. There is an option to modify for regular full size slide on the springer rods. 

     

    ok nice - i didnt read the fine print after the 'x5' headline

     

    I also just found one on thesigarmorer website too

    Hello: You can drill and tap a hole in the bottom of a comp for a set screw and that will stop it from indexing if you countersink slightly into the barrel. Like I said you can lighten a bull barrel on the sides and bottom. Cone comp having 360 degree contact surface is not true in a 1911. Thanks, Eric

     

    does a supported guide rod plug make a difference

    Typically you would measure where your finger rest on the trigger with a normal grip, right at the center point or just below center.

     

    i noticed that on this forum but every one have different areas

    Hello: Where are you testing the trigger pull from? Thanks, Eric

     

     

    Where are you supposed to measure from?

     

    Cars are rated at max horsepower usually at the highest rpm but you dont drive around on the rev limiter

    We're completely speculating here. Or at least I am. But I'd ask, why didn't he shoot a tanfo in open or limited?  Again, pure speculation here but I'd bet the Beretta will be more like the cz/tanfos.  

     

    I'll be honest, I can't give a good reason why or what specifically it is that makes the 2011 seem to be better than the other options. I think(feel is probably more correct) the 2011 does everything better. More accurate, flatter, reloads are better. I mention the too guys because it makes sense to me that the top level of every type of competition, gravitate towards the equipment they feel is the best for their scores. I'm not recommending just blindly following the leader but that kinda makes more sense than blindly following the internet forum guy. 

     

    Again, all this is just my opinion and how things make sense to me. 

     

    look up what JJ won limited uspsa nationals with last year - almost positive it was a tanfoglio

    My only issue with Tanfoglios (and I have a few) is the factory barrel comp setup is sub optimal for 9mm major and unnecessarily loud, they are probably better in IPSC with 160 PF major in open, and if you don't like the factory offering there are very few options to get something you may like better. I ended up making my own cone comp to get something that works the way I want. 

     

     

     

    Have you tried the Tanfoglio Domina

  11. it is true Tanfoglios dont have as much aftermarket items as 2011 if your looking to have a custom gun

    but:

     

    2011 grip is held on with 2 and a half screws (STI even has 2 fake screws on their plastic grip)

     

    I think my Tanfoglio trigger is better than 2011

     

    I like Tanfoglio assembly/disassembly better than 2011

     

    2011 is a 1911 with 20 different grip/frame options to make it double stack

     

    you can follow the top level sponsored shooters but only one person can win a match

    Comps. Not in order of preference. Just explained.

     

    V12 - pros. Flat and short. Points fast. Light.

    Cons. More powder, loud, hand hit.

    Durso - pros. Soft, less powder, less hand hit.

    Cons. Some may not like length. Heavier. Recoil wobbles (ymmv)

    V4 (V12 minus 8 popple holes)

    Pros. fairly flat. Light. Less powder. less hand hit. Tracked well with no wobbles. Works well in conjuction with limited slide

    Cons. ?

    V10 with straight 5/32 holes

    Pros. Flattest, short, point fast. Less hand hit than v12 

    Cons. Powder comparable to v12. Custom and not factory.

    3 port- to be continued...one is on order. 

     

    which three port comp do you have on order - the v8 version?

    I was trying to get Atlas mount, but they are not shipping overseas. All my RTS2's have failed around 6k so I am looking for alternatives during wintertime. Trijicon SRO is very interesting but at the pricepoint of 800 EUR you can buy two 510c and I already have one at PCC, which I really like.

     

    try speedshooters - i think they ship overseas under $100 for Atlas 510c mount
