Tanfoglio reliability and general quality.
I am a fan of 10mm handguns and currently have 3, all of which are polymer. I like them, all 3 shoot really good (Glock 20.4, 40mos & FN 510T) but I have an itch for an all metal offering.
My very first 10mm was a RIA double stack 1911 which turned out to be a turd. Tuat experience along with reading a lot of people's posts on forums over the years have turned me off to 1911s chambered in 10mm. Don't get me wrong, I like my 1911s, but I just feel like they do best in 45auto.
That basically leaves Sig p220 and Tanfoglio for non polymer offerings and I like the capacity and variety in finishes/styles of the tanfoglios better than Sig.
I know the tanfoglios had an issue with frame cracking a long time ago that has been resolved. Amy ne with one care to enlighten me with your thoughts on how good of quality they are and their reliability?
