Sniperboy Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Thanks for posting the review. Wow that is a GREAT trigger out of the box, almost unbelievable. My Stock 2 had a 5+lb SA, and at times the DA would max out my trigger pull scale! LOL : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My take on it: The Stock 1 is the same size as a Stock II. But overall, what is, is a shortened Stock III Finish: It is more of a matte finish ....it is not shiny like the Stock III It has a unique front strap and back strap grip pattern, that I found works for me....I like it. (but the front grip will grab cloth like the rear slide serrations) It does not have a over travel screw like the Stock III It does not have a ambi safety and the safety has been trimmed down. I am pretty sure this is to make it fit in the IDPA box. I like the front and rear serrations both make it easy to manipulate the slide. The hammer is the same hammer as the Stock II. The rear sight is interesting....being used to the Tanfoglio Super Sight that is on the Stock II and Stock III, I found the Stock I sight to be unusual. I plan to upgrade it to a fiber optic front sight and see how it goes. The SA trigger is very nice (IMO) and very comparable to what the Stock III and Stock II are out of the box. The DA trigger to me seems a little lighter than the Stock III and Stock II out of the box. It is smooth and stacks up at the end before it breaks. (I got a 5 pull average of 7lbs 4oz...but it feels a little heavier than that to me.) Overall I LOVE this gun. I am considering putting a Vortex Viper on it and running it in Carry Optic. In a nutshell.....to me it is a Stock III with a fashion upgrade and shortened by 1/2 with the goal to make weight and fit in the box of IDPA. And hopefully make weight for USPSA Carry Optic without any mods to make it lighter. Definitely worth the money. (please do not critique my 3 shot group picture...I am blind in one eye and can't see out the other) Great write up! Thanks for the info! I am considering getting one of these for a IDPA legal back up gun to my limited pro (since they are now hard to come by) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DenverDave Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Tell me what you want for pictures....I am assuming ejection port on the Stock 1 vs Stock III ? Tell me what you want and I will pull them out of the safe and take some pics. (My whole point of this post is.......I had to buy one sight unseen.....I am just trying to get the info out there everyone wants on this gun....just let me know how I can help) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alderleet Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 The stock 1 is large frame, correct? What is the finish like, hows does it feel? Does it seem durable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it seem durable? Yes it is large frame, I think it feels very similar to the stock 3, the finger grooves are very subtle and the "checkering" is less aggressive. It seems just as durable as the other tanfos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MemphisMechanic Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Bolo Titan hammer single-piece sear dawson front sight Guide rod a bunch of springs more polishing and fitting than you might beleive. The Stock 1/2/3 is an easy gun to make sexy when you toss a box of Patriot goodies at it, and a couple of evenings worth of time. The recipe is very “tried and true” at this point.

Hi, If you want the "smaller" ejection port opening and full utilization of all the locking lugs you have to specify that you want a small frame Tanfoglio.
