Storz Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 I am picking up a used small frame EAA/Tangfolio Witness tonight. Comes with 6 mags, original box etc. Seller says he bought it new in 2007. Anything I should know? These guns more closely resemble the CZ75 than the current production of large frame Witness' correct? Do CZ75 grips work? Holsters work? Thanks!

kneelingatlas Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 CZ 75 grips work for the most of the time, same with mags/holsters CZ triggers/hammers/discos have smaller pins but can be modified to fit.

Nealio Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 2007 would be the large frame, and it looks large to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storz Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 2007 would be the large frame, and it looks large to me It's a small frame. Produced in 2002, previous owner called EAA about the serial number to verify. Must have been leftover stock. Will these fit a cz75b holster.

kneelingatlas Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Produced in 2002 I was just about to say it looks older than 2007... That looks like a small frame to me, Nealio must not have his glasses on It might be a little tight in some holsters made for the CZ75 since the dust cover of the CZ is thinner and the muzzle is tapered. It'll fit in an SP01 holster for sure (I have one I use for pretty much all my CZ75 pattern pistols). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storz Posted October 28, 2013 Author Share Posted October 28, 2013 I have an Alien Gear hybrid holster and they offer free kydex body replacement. They offer a shell for the 75b or SP01 Phantom, which would you recommend? Www.aliengearholsters.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 The Phantom is a poly which has a wider frame so it would be loose. The 75B will either be a hair tight or fit like a glove, so that gets my vote; if it's Kydex you could always heat it up and stretch it (a lot easier than you can shrink it!).

Storz Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 Do the thin aluminum grips from CZC work on the small frame Witness? http://czcustom.com/CZ_75-thin-blue-grips-long.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 I think so, but send cjfung10 a PM to confirm, he has the CZC thin grips and a small frame Witness like yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storz Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 Well I picked up the Tanfoglio last night and I have to say its an impressive feeling gun. Slide to frame fit is perfect, the trigger is amazing and I like it comes with steel sights, though it appears the front sight is going to require a gunsmith to change. I've had Glocks, M&Ps, XDs etc etc but I think I've drank the kool-aide now on CZ pattern guns. Couple more pics from the previous owner, I'll snap some of my own tonight.

Storz Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 Just strapped it on for the first time. IWB in a cheapie nylon holster (until my alien gear gets here) and I have to say it carries better than my P07. Has to be the narrower slide profile.
