ATLDave Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 26 minutes ago, Yondering said: It seems that you're really just looking to argue about something instead of responding to what I actually said. Your repeated contention is that the slide weight of the G40, as compared to a Tanfo', makes it suited to 10mm. This obviously raises the question as to whether the G20 and G29 - both of which have shorter, lighter slides than a G40 - are unsuited to 10mm. My feelings are unhurt. I am also un-bothered by anyone's brand preferences. I do wonder what malady you contend my 10mm Tanfoglios are due to suffer from... what, exactly, is it that you contend the too-light slide of my Match or Limited is going to inflict?

TonyRumore Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 (edited) FWIW, Wolff makes heavy Glock recoil springs up to 24 pounds and up to 28 pounds for the 1911, but only up to 20 pounds for the Tanfoglio. However, we have a booster spring and guide rod that adds another 8 pounds for the Tanfo's. It makes it a dual spring setup like the Compact models. It may not be needed for 10mm, but I prefer to bump to 28 pounds when I'm shooting 9x25 Dillon, 9mm Super, and 40 Super.

TanfoglioTom Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Hello folks! I love my Tanfoglio but, I have 5 magazines and with less than 100 rounds through it the mags drop out of the frame under recoil with any Ammo I use in it. I’ve called and emailed EAA and Tanfoglio, left messages and neither will return my calls or emails. Can o get some advice on who to contact and send the gun to for repair? I’d think it would have to be the Mag Release button is too short or out of spec… Thx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry2021 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I came across this forum thread today in 2021 after the zombie apocalypse came. Can y'all point me to the places to order a 10mm conversion kit for a 9mm large frame Tanfoglio witness compact? Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endall Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 T-Tom, sounds like the mag release is either not seating correctly or out of spec. I would use Patriot Defense to sort it out. We are on our own with these guns. Henry, EAA was the only source for conversion slides. But availability was terrible, and sometimes they would ship what they had and not what you need. You might get a Hunter slide for your Compact and then reply that you should order the correct part to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
