Tanfoglio Stock 3

HI Sean,...if you get a chance, on the GV,.. EriC Grauffel posted a PDF file indicating the parts available for the stock/stock2, stock3...etc/ production legal parts. base pads, springs, etc. fyi
 
I got to try one of these guns a couple weeks ago and I must say I was quite impressed. There had been some minor polishing work done and the mainspring replaced with a lighter than factory (13lb?). Trigger broke clean and light and D/A stroke was smooth and soft. Nice grips, checkering, adjustable sights, long sight radius, integral mag well and a smokin' hot trigger. A VERY shootable gun.

From experience I can attest that with some polishing and correct spring tuning the Tanfoglio triggers can be adjusted for any kind of pull varying from stiff to scary-light, depending on what you like. I experimented with pulls as low as 1 lb but found that closer to 2 lbs was better for proper feedback. YMMV.
 
I like the stock3 trigger kit that Sean installed in my newer stock2 (3500rds thru it is still new to me). That kit combined with the deburring /minor detailing makes it a very decent trigger. I like it so much that I am soon replacing my old stock2 9mm (67,000rds+) trigger with the stock3 kit. It is a smarter sear set up.
The stock3 trigger sear is a better trigger set up....period. With the list of Tanfoglio production parts, you can customize your stock 2 or stock 3 into a CZ Shadow fighter. Eric Grauffel is shooting production at the next Worlds with either a Stock2 or Stock3.....Look out!
 
So what parts should a person buy if they have a Stock 3/Stock 3 kit if they want to lighten the trigger? The Shadow has plenty to research but I find the Stock 3 not so much to go on. I'd like to know how close I can get the trigger to my tuned Shadow before spending the coin on a new set up.

The Delta Hammer for a Stock III will help a bit, but other than that - Tanfoglio supplies it's best competition parts with the Stock III. The next step would be contacting an experienced "de-burrer / polisher" to tune up the innards.
 
Any ideas on where I can find schematics for the Stock 3?

More so what is the best way to remove the ambi safety when working on internals
 
there are videos on Youtube that show the removal of parts...take down...etc.

a small punch would do it...or a small picture hanging nail...with the tip removed.
 
sounds good, just need to confirm that it is an unthreaded pin as well I take it i can just push it down (or either end)

Thanks for your help :)
