Fo0 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Either will be 38 super comp Either with cmore slide ride 2011 I was wanting to try the KKM 5" hybrid threaded barrel EAA Gold Team I was wanting to use the minor pf barrel and drill out the second port on the comp and the four pre-drilled holes in the comp and no barrel ports I have a 2011 open gun in 9mm but I want to try a 38 sc gun - Never shot a Tanfoglio. Not worried about the backup gun complications at this point Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acsr Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 If your in the USA I would go with the 2011 just off the pure support side, personally have no experience with a tangfo but i think the 2011 is a proven and better design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fo0 Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 2011 has more support but for what I am trying to build parts are out of stock or on pre-order. with what doesn't come with EAA Gold Team there are aftermarket support and I am close to Patriot Defense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niroth81 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 With Hennings range of products I would say you can build a competitive gun either way. I have run a couple 38SC Tanfogs and now use a 2011 with a CK E2 grip (for the thinner dimensions) and prefer it. You can get a really good trigger on a tanfog; but I don't think it will ever compare to a 2011 with its setup. Here in OZ there is better support for 2011 aftermarket parts; that said I don't think I'll ever get rid of the Tanfog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeBurgess Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I have a Gold Team with a custom non ported barrel and comp and a Caspian high cap open gun, both in 9mm, both with no popple holes, both with mid length barrels. Firing the same ammo, the Caspian is a little bit softer shooting and feels just a bit smoother, it could be entirely because the Caspian is 10oz heavier, but I prefer the feel of it. My wife on the other hand loves the feel of the Tanfoglio grip and large safety so thats her pick. The recoil difference with my 2 guns is small and both feel like minor 9mm guns in the hand, once you get past the loud bang. one thing in the 2011 + column is you will get 1 or 2 more rounds in your big sticks, the tanfo mbx holds 28 sometimes you can cram in a 29th but its tight.
