YES! I actually just got one yesterday and had it at the range today. It is sweeet. The only thing I really had to do to it was narrow the feed lips on the mags a bit. The rounds were feeding into the top of the barrel or the slide, but the last 50 rounds I had went with no problems.
I'm looking forward to many long hours at the range.

I've shot a fairly old and very well used ex IPSC Custom or Limited Custom that is at my local indoor Rent-A-Gun range. After who knows how many 10's of thousands of rounds through it the thing is still solid as a good battleship, accurate enough to make me look good even to myself and has a trigger to die for. If you get it and it fits your hands well you have a winner. If I choose to go Standard class at some point I know what I'll be getting for sure.
to make it more reliable.....use some Henning parts,..like firing pin, hammer and sear, Guide rod,.etc...
THere are parts you can polish to slick up the action. This is not altogether necessary, but since this is a hobby, it is nice to supe up the pistola! If you want thinner grips, than go with the OEM aluminum (Sean at Freedom Ventures sells them), or Henning grips. Hennings sells tons of aftermarket cool stuff for the tanfoglios
here is me using the Limited Custom .40 at a match in NS;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNMTOU-8V7I
I use a Limited Custom .40 in standard division, and the only tuning I had to do was the mentioned mag lips spreading, and trimmed the slide release.
I use a Stock2 9mm (basically double action no magwell version of the Limited) in production division.

The two things these guns need most is a hardened firing pin (Henning or EGW) and a hardened sear properly fitted to the gun. The hammers are fine out of the box with a little tweaking if you want the trigger really nice, or not if you don't care. The stock sears are surface hardened, and some are better than others. If you get a good one, it can last a long time, but if not you will have to replace it. Not a big deal though, and the EGW will last forever. The rest of the after market goodies are very nice but not necessary, though most people will benefit from aluminum grips as the standard wood grip panels look really nice but are too large for most hands.
