My gunsmith said the single action trigger pull is about 3.5 to 4 lbs. I've got the full size version of the 10mm. It's a gorgeous gun, and very well constructed. It's a supposed CZ 75 clone, but actually the safety operation is totally different (I have a CZ 75 Carry), the hammer is also much easier to pull back than the CZ, the slide release pin is also much easier to push out by hand. On my CZ 75 I have to push the pin with the magazine or on a wooden surface. Also, the full size ships with 1 14+1 magazine, although if you jam in a 14th round the magazine expands and doesn't as easily fit into the handle, so I recommend using 13+1 to prevent a feed malfunction. Overall, I am very pleased with this firearm. I chose it over the Glock 20 because of the full steel frame, and overall feel of more quality in the tolerances in manufacturing of it. An important question to many is weight. Well, it weighs about 8 oz's more than a G20.
Great video! Thanks for sharing. I was looking into buying a 10mm and I had my eye on this compact tanfoglio for a while. Almost bought it but I found a good deal on a S&W 1006 that I couldn't turn down. They seem like really cool guns though. Maybe someday I'll buy one!
a lot of gun owners do not realize its a single double which means you have to carry it cocked and locked you have double action in case of a bad primer
have this w red lok grips.. it's striking.. have the IFG Stock Master in 10mm also. amazing- Tan(silent G)foglio guns.. some of the best CZ clones made.
Great video DM. One correction starting with the 10mm or 45acp you can go anything smaller in caliber but with a 9mm can't be upgraded to 45acp or 10mm. How does it shoot?
I thought it shot well until the recoil spring broke. The recoil springs aren't heavy enough but going to a heavier spring makes it harder to rack with the slide being set into the frame. There is less to grab. It's been sitting in my safe waiting for EAA to send me a replacement spring. I've been loving on my G20 in the meanwhile.
What are your "Lava" grips, & who makes them ? I have an older model with a different type rubber / plastic (?) grips than yours I'd like to change out. Can ya help me please ?
Hello, what did you use to clean off the goop as you called it? Newbie here and I've never purchased a weapon with I'm assuming it's cosmoline oil, good video, TY
Ive been wanting a 10mm for a few years. I think ill get a tanfoglio. But im not sure which model i want yet. I have heard of frames and slides cracking on older models. I hope the new ones are good to go. You should do an update video after 2000 rounds and let us know how u like it after its been broken-in
I'm probably going to do an update video next week. I had the recoil spring break. I'm going to test a stronger spring and see how it does. Thanks for watching and commenting!
2000 rounds?! Who does that? Who could afford it?! About 200 rds through my full size 5" barrel, 14 rd mag 10 mm, and it's probably my favorite (of the 3 pistols I own).
@@bradmack4098 It’s not uncommon at all, plenty of people shoot their guns regularly and it’s not hard to hit 2000 going through boxes of 50 or whatever.
Looking for some “wisdom”. I have the full size version of this pistol. Having trouble with the “Underwood Extreme” series of ammo. Getting light primer strikes and “on occasion” the pistol won’t seat into battery when cycling. Using EAA mags. It runs regular 10/MM FMJs with no issues. Help 😭😭😭
Finally found a recent review...could you tell me if this gun will stand up to most if not all of the 10mm loadings that are available? I love this gun but don't really know enough about its workings in 10mm. Thanks so much for your anticipated response and very informative video!
Thank you! I've only put Sig Sauer full metal jacket through it. It should be able to handle any commercially available ammunition. Eventually I'll switch to Minuteman Ammunition hollow points. It's a little stronger than fmj.
Don’t know if you still have it but I had the full size , good gun but under sprung like a lot of 10’s and had to go up a few lbs. didn’t know about the finish needing to be treated like blue but years ago they would come with spots on them that looked like oil spots ( I assumed it was Matt nickel) and at the time the 45’s came with a 22 upper for $350 as a package! my friends had those but I wanted the 10mm and wish I still had it. 🤭🤷♀️

As a Badger myself, I've heard it both ways. Not sure which is correct, and don't even care because this is my favorite gun that I own. It is pretty heavy, but also as/mote accurate as anything I own.
@Tripleblade 82 so my that logic why. Are 357 magnums a thing?( im not even goingbto dignify your " you cant find 10mm right now" argument. You cant find 9mm right now either.or 40.. Move on. Sadly your proposed tgeory that 10mms only " justification" for existance is bear protection falls apart under the slightest scruitiny. Yes 10mm has found popularity as bear defense, but that was NEVER what it was intended for. People also need to stop acting like 10mm is a punishing round to shoot based on their limmited experience with firearms that cannot handle the round. Yeah 10mm in a small polymer pistol is AWFUL. But in reality so is 40 s&w. Put a 10mm in a steel framed full size handgun and then judge its preformance vs precieved recoil. Yeah glocks are great, but let them be great at what they can handle, and leave the heavy lifting to. The proper platforms. The fact is that if not for the fbi and their poor training practices no body would have EVER bothered... And i used to be a 40 guy... Until i shot a ten. It has ALL THE DRAWBACKS that come with 1cm pistols. Heavy bullet, high preasure round, that only really preforms well in a full-size steel or aluminum pistol, with limited firearms designed to shoot the round in qustion and not just what amounts to an aftermarket conversion done in the factory by swapping a barrel and a heavier recoil spring. I mean its the same as 9mm vs 380... Except 380 you get a few " benifits" along with very little " given up" with modern offerings. ex. It becomes so low presure you can make guns much simpler and smaller, all most all chamberings are inherently subsonic and supress VERY well. It can use super light projectiles AND powder loads making it good for people that are recoil sensitive and what do you give up? Marginal penetration in sterile test scenarios? What is a 3/4" in gelitan? Dont get me wrong 9mm is by no means a bad choice either... But at least you can give a reason to justify 380. 40 is just stupid. 10mm can fill any role a .40 can and THEN ALSO, everything 10mm is known for. Saying that no one " needs" a 10mm because they are " to powerful" is the most pathetic thing ive ever heard... Not to mention completly incorrect. NO pistol round is a good option. They at absolute best a " fair comprimise". Even hot 10mm is not considered a gauranteed 1 shot stop. And it shouldn't be. And it compares favorably to .357 magnum. Which is one of the few handgun chamberings with a common loading that IS considered safe to asume will be . if youve cucked yourself into believing you are better of with a quantifiably inferior chamering, think 10mms has no purpose outside of " bear attacks" or that using something instead of 10mm is some kind of " statement of intent" on your part i advise you to stop carrying your firearm and go take a few classes as to the civilian use of deadly force in self defence classes.

Someone should have warned CZ these are cheap knockoff garbage before they bought Tanfoglio frames to start the production of the P07 (Tanfoglio was making their polymer-framed gus since 1997), or before they used Tanfoglio .45 magazines for the CZ97.
Are you using the stock springs? Your gun has the newer stronger slide, but I would still refrain from shooting hot loads with the stock springs. These guns are severley undersprung fom the factory. Unfortunately you're gonna have to cut the springs yourself because nobody makes them for this discontinued model. If you need help mail me and I'll help ya
I tried a couple different aftermarket springs but they didn't work out. I ended up trading it for a CZ 75 compact and bought a Glock 20 to replace it.
