SAR is from a different company in Turkey not Italy. The SAR is based on the Tanfoglio design. In fact it can use some Witness small frame parts. It is also forged instead of cast. I have all three.Tex1961 wrote: Wed Mar 16, 2022 11:14 am EAA, Tanfoglio. SAR, pretty much all the same and all pretty well respected for being CZ clones. If the price is right I would have no problems with getting it.
I have a stainless SAR just like that Tanfoglio.AndyC1911 wrote: Wed Mar 23, 2022 1:07 pm I had this model Tanfoglio in the early 90s in South Africa:
Absolutely reliable, accurate - I shot it in competition and carried it on duty when I was working armed response (used it in a gunfight with AK-wielding oafs trying to burglarize a clothing factory at night, which was fun - not). The main functional difference between the Tanfog and a CZ75 was that I could still retract the Tanfog slide even when cocked-n-locked.
Would I buy one again? Yep.
