Another witness for the safe, EA9B, small frame

[jd1]

Oops. You said slide, not mag. Sorry about that.

Thanks. Maybe someone else will know about the slide release.

Ok. I grabbed my SP-01 which as the extended slide release and popped it in the EA9B. It fit and functions.  Interestingly, the extended CZ slide release lever is maybe only 1/8" longer than the stock Tanfo lever. Any gains would be negligible.

Thank you, sir!

CZ75 rubber grips are  installed on mine now. Not a perfect fit around the edges but better than the hard plastic ones that came with it by a long shot. I wish we could get factory rubber grips for these. 

Also, the Fobus SG21 paddle holster will work for this pistol. It's ever so close to being a perfect fit.

I bought a set of old ugly TZ-75/TA-90 factory wood grips on eBay for $16 and refinished them. They turned out nicely.

Mr. HH, those look great.  Thanks a lot, now you got me thinking of doing the same thing!!  lol

Okay, so I picked this up yesterday and shot it right after.  The sku is 999111 and the box says EA9B as the model. 

I am planning on ordering one of these while they are still cheap.  I have a question though, has Tanfoglio changed the hardening process on the sear yet?  I mean, will I be able to do a trigger job/polish without fearing about losing the hardness of the sear?  I heard they used to only surface harden these parts.

  Well the video got me wanting one. I have the small frame P-S and think it's the best gun for the money to be had right now. When I started looking only Bud's had any and only for Bud's Team Members. I wasn't about to pay them $40 just for the privilege of buying a gun from them. I checked Classic Firearms and they were out of stock so I asked to be notified if they got any in.

  Wednesday morning I got an email from them and ordered one for $319.99 shipped. I came in at my local FFL this afternoon, super fast.  I cleaned it up and will take it out early Saturday morning.

$320 is a good deal.  Congratulations.

Sweet Deal, Oreocat!    Congratulations and enjoy it!

I did the first 100 rounds early this morning and as a first outing I think I shoot this pistol as well if not better than anything I have. I have 38 other hand guns and for me I would put this one up against my Beretta M9 and APX, also my CZ75 BD. I'm really liking this one.

Congrats on the purchase oreocat, 320 is the cheapest I've seen these.  sounds like you're shooting good with it too!
