Witness Polymer frame compatibility.
« on: March 23, 2018, 08:57:08 PM »
Will the extended Witness slides with the 4.75" barrels fit on the polymer Tanfoglio Witness Polymer frames?

A question you should probably ask the EAA gunsmith.

I would rather not talk to an EAA gunsmith. Requiring me to send my gun in to replace a spring from the sight falling apart is not great customer service.

I don't know for sure and I don't know how accurate an indicator the following is, but the EAA website asks for a serial number before you add a part to your cart. It allowed me to add the 9MM Conversion Kit Longslide W/Super Sight, Blue #300024 and proceed to the checkout page. The serial number I used was that of my poly compact. http://eaacorp.com/gun_accessories/index.php/9mm-conversion-kit-longslide-w-super-sight-blue-300024.html

FWIW, I already have a full size slide (4 3/8" barrel) on my compact.


I do think giving them a call is sound advice..... maybe they will redeem themselves in your eyes.
Regards,
Greg

I am fairly certain that EAA is currently as helpful as they were with the K2 45 a few years ago(which isn't much since sarcasm can be difficult to convey at times). The EAA serial number doohickey thing on their website keeps showing error messages while I am looking up which magazines to buy for my Polymer Compact. I have sent them 2 emails over the last 2 weeks with no response.

I guess I will just have to wait for the Witness full size polymer that I picked up on gunbroker to see for myself.

Yes if the Full Sized polymer frame.  Labeled ?PF? on the bottom of the grip.  No if ?PC?.

I was told that slides are incompatible between polymer and steel frames. I can't test this theory though since I only have large steel frames and small polymer frames ATM.
