Tanfoglio model designations P19, P21 etc.

[Wayward_Angel]

Hi!

I have a question about all the Tanfoglio models. I always see P19, P19L, P21, P21L, T95F etc. thrown around when browsing parts yet Tanfoglio does not list any of their models/frames using those designations.
For example - does a P19 magazine fit a Tanfoglio Ultra Match? Is there any way to know?

Thanks!

One of the problems with Tanfoglio Pistols has been identifying the different models as designations seem to change depending upon who is importing them and where.

The only guidance I can give you is to be cognizant of the size of frame of the Pistol you are dealing with.  There are two basic frame sizes.
The small 9mm/.40 frame and the Large 10mm/.45/.38 Super Frame.  Note that the Large Frame Pistols can also be had in 9mm and .40.

Probably keeps Magazine Vendors up at night.

In the USA, Tanfoglio Pistols have been imported under the following designations:

Importer.......Model Name

FIE..................Tz75

Excam.............TA90

EAA.................Witness

Tanfoglio.........Force

IFG..................Defiant
