I was at a gun shop (CRAFM) last week-end and held in hands and manipulated a couple of Tanfos. I was impressed with the built quality, trigger, tightness and feel in my hands. I am a former CZ Shadow owner and am not fond of the Shadow 2 looks. I prefer the Tanfo Stock 3. Any quality or reliability or other issues that I should be aware of ?

Thanks
 
I have an all-steel Witness in 10mm and the thing is a tank. I haven't shot it a lot, and I've done some spring replacements to help it hold up to full-house loads, and it functions flawlessly. There are lots of Youtube reviews...
 
An aussi length Stock 2 with aluminum grips (black or silver) is about as ###y as a CZ variant can get imo. The prices of the Tanfoglios have not gone up at the same rate as many other brands over the last couple years either, so good value I think.

Not mine but wish it was.

I love my Tanfo. I shoot the Match. Great quality they run great. Unlike my Pardini this Italian Stalion Tanfo actually works.
 
I have 2 tanfos now. Unfortunately i haven't fired either one yet. Lol. One thing i don't like about the stock 3 is the black front sight. Fiber optics is the way to go. And i highly recommend the xtreme front sight over the henning. The fit is better.
 
Have a Limited Custom 40 with extreme parts that I use for IPSC Standard division.
One of the best handguns I've owned, very accurate, all steel, fits my hand perfectly, easy to get a great grip.
Round count is sort of unknown, bought it used of the EE. My guess, last owner prob put through 10-15K, I've put through another 25K.
Only breakage from owning it was the extractor (just last month), and a few recoil spring swaps because they just lost their spring.

Overall, excellent pistol, would buy another and my experience has been it's as reliable as my old G34
Fairly easy to work on, but not like taking apart a Glock, lol.
