It certainly looks better with the nasty plastic grips designated to the bin and replaced by Hogue wrap around rosewood ones.

Direct replacement, no messing about, $34 from Outdoor World.

My mistake mate, they are Pachmayr wrap around grips, not Hogue (threw the packaging away long ago.....). I don't think they will ship out of the lower 48 States. I bought these the last time we were over there.

i got a Tanfoglio witness yesterday , seems a very well made gun , but my goodness it likes its gas,, ,
i get 3 mags at good power , and the 4th is to low to be very accurate .
seems best to load 4 mags with 15 in , that way get to reload 4 times .
i also like the way it strips down like to original .
all in all a very well made gun for the money .
lets hope its reliable in the long term.
does anyone know if seals and mags are available on the net anywhere ?

The witness does go through gas at a pace, however, its worth it, where else can you get so much fun?
Seals and general spares are not available, as yet, extra mags are, but I have only been able to source from Pyramid in the states.

This is an excellent pistol

Ive ordered some wood grips for mine

Spare mags are a problem in the UK at the moment. You can order them from Pyramid in the States but watch out for the high delivery costs and tax etc

I'm resealing leaky Tanfoglio Witness mags with high quality Polyurethane seals

Try MidwayUK

or the Hogue ones.

Used them a couple of times now and although the delivery can take a while (they come in from the States) the prices etc are pretty good.

My first ever BB Pistol has just died

Totally worn out it was, sadly my Walther CP 99 is now a paper weight,

My Tanfoglio 1911 should arrive at Kibby this week

[gingernut]

Bloo. Of course I cant find it now!
But it was on You Tube Polish or Russian.
Box etc same as Witness.
Cant remember which combination of words found it!
