zx9rt1 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Well this is a little concerning. I have a couple of their higher end pistols. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritinUSA Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Is it IFG now? I think they have a distribution center in Texas : http://www.italianfirearmsgroup.com/ftitalia/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they have a distribution center in Texas : http://www.italianfirearmsgroup.com/ftitalia/ IFG was also importing them but they offered different models than EAA. Closest to a Stock II that IFG has is a Stock Defiant which is a bit of a mash up. Dimensions and rail of a Stock III with a bull-barrel like a Stock II.

N7VY Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 I wouldn’t look forward to having a warranty from EAA. If you change a spring they won’t “honor” the warranty. Sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

attakmint Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 I contacted IFG on Instagram and they're working on importing the EAA models like the Stock II (and presumably Stock III, the Xtremes, the Gold Cup, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbu Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 I had heard by jungle drums, that EAA and tanfo had a disagreement that... escalated. The result being EAA took their marbles and stomped off to cry at home. (<- some literary license there). Honestly, the tanfo basics have always been decent, but needed a bit of "love". The 4 part Memphismechanic youtube vid showed all that was needed. The folks at IFG are good, so im not worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N7VY Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 I’m not selling nor have any interest in this but there’s a guy on a major gun selling site that has been selling used Tanfos. He has more for sale than all the others selling theirs. Well maybe not really. There in Scottsdale, AZ. Maybe he bought all of eaa’s stock?

If slide stays on it is good to ship. Losing EAA is good. I have gotten the wrong parts from them multiple times. They ALWAYS replied I ordered the wrong parts. Once when I sent a photo of what they shipped they said it was not their part. What I had sent a picture of was not a Tangfoglio part. Took a month of back and forth to return for correct part. Waited a year once and when part came it was wrong. Still have it. Cost over 200.00. Does not fit any of my guns. They told if I order wrong part it is on me. Stupid, crooked, or both. I will never order one of those Turkish wonders they now carry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnappi Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I'd been a Tanfoglio / EAA fan since the early 90's and back in the day, EAA had great service with knowledgeable employees. The past couple of years they had difficulties with their website and on hand stock confusion and added to that a complete re-design of the website made it all worse. Oh well... The great thing about Tanfo is all of the factory made models, upgrades / options. I can't think of another maker that has such an extensive array of guns from carry to fully tricked out models. I hope IFG can at the very least get up to where EAA was at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endall Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I hope so too. I was mad at EAA/Tanfoglio and would not order a Hunter. Felt I had given them too much patience and money. Wanted a Hunter. Now I cannot get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N7VY Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 There are several “Hunter” models on a popular gun purchasing website that ends in *******oker.com . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least from their website, all the new guns will have the new serrations. Hopefully they import a good number of large frame pistols. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerS Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 I'm not one to wish ill on anyone, but I'm glad tanfoglio has moved on to another importer, hopefully it will be good news for Tanfo fans...thanks for the updates! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most I've seen were blah finished. This one was dark black, I even had a spare set of black aluminum grips and mag well for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My experience with IFG was less than promising. To me, the best advice I can give anyone, is not to buy any Tanfo that you can not either lay hands on prior to sale or buy used from a seller you trust. Nice guns, marginal quality control, good luck with any warranty issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
