Tanfoglio MOSSAD compact...
« on: December 29, 2020, 06:35:28 PM »
Very cool little TZ75 compact(I think). It's been dolled up by it's previous owner, and I really like it...




Any tribal knowledge on these?

Cool looking pistol. I always planned to get one of them when they were easy to find and affordable. The ones I've seen lately are higher priced and not anywhere near as nice as yours.
I've always heard they were good shooters.
I've found that growing up in the sixties was a lot more fun than being in my sixties.

JWC, is there any way to date this pistol? It doesn't have the typical two letter in a square stamping...

Unfortunately, the only way to date this Pistol is to email Tanfoglio with the Serial Number.
I would guesstimate it's production to be in the early 1990's.

Agreed, definitely pre 95’.
