Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Competitive Shooting Tanfoglio/EEA guys…what are these?

A little help with some ID:

Clearly, the stainless one is a Stock, but the trigger guard is rounded, so its throwing me off. Also the grip corners are rounded. Can’t nail down the specific model.

The black one looks to be a Limited, but I’m not seeing them in black with a solid slide.

Any help is appreciated.

The silver one is am early Stock II before they added II to the slide. And its actually hard chrome and not stainless. I wish Tanfoglio would make a stainless model. They are great cz75 copies. I own several with the 10mm ones being my personal favorites.

Outstanding. Thanks for that. It was very elusive in the search.

A wild guess on the black one: It looks to be a Limited Pro with the short dust cover, but it has the scope-mounting holes in the dust cover that I’ve only found on the Limited and the Limited Custom, which have a full-length dust covers.

I have Armalite AR24 in 9mm that is based on the Tanfoglio CZ75 A design. The only downside is it has a steel frame that makes it a bit heavy. It shoots cheap Wolf and Tula ammo like a house on fire.

Did the Stock 2 become Witness Elite

Not that I'm tracking, I think they are two differnt models. The newest gen Stock IIs are still chrome and bull barreled but have a new style slide serrations that I am not a big fan of when compared to the older style. The Stock IIs are my personal favorite of all the I-IIIs. My dad has a few Stock Extreme 6 inchers and they are pretty sweet as well.

The top black one is single action only, The Dan Wesson DWX, the CZ Shadow and the SAR K-12 are all similar in basic operations

The "silver" is DA/SA and similar to the CZ 75, SAR group including B6, and the various Tangfolios These can be carried at half-cock which allows for easier trigger pull than directly from hammer clear back, or the safety can be flicked on which locks it in the half cock position

each company also has optic cuts for the various models but not in all across the board.

I can't remember if they offered the competition model as a complete gun or not, but you could get components. The black one is the competition frame, & there were slide options. Different lengths, with or without sights or sight cuts.

I built a long slide with a Storm Lake barrel & a 3 port compensator in 40 S&W. Had fun with it. It wasn't quite competitive with the STI's, but a heck of a lot less money.
