FF112173 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Forgive me for being a complete newb when it comes to Tanfoglio and all my questions. I have magazines from a Gold Custom, 38 Super, V8 model. When I tried them in my new Gold Witness 2017 ERIC, also 38 Super, they are very tight and stick. Is this small frame vs large frame? Where can I get magazines for the 2017 Eric? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeBurgess Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 nope, Large frame mags will not go into small frame guns at all. Your old mags are likely slightly bulged, you can probably give them a squeeze in a vice and get them to fit the new frame nicely, this will also likely help hose mags feed and function better.

shabodah Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 PS there is no such thing as a small frame 38 super. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check for any little burrs in the grip of the new gun and check it’s not the grips rubbing on the mags (easy to check by just removing the grips). Also check the mag catch and the mags themselves for any bulging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
