Hello, i have a .41 AE Tanfoglio, and i was wonderoing if i can convert it to 9mm only changing the bore and spring, or if i have to buy all the upper part. My question is because there is almost no information about this gun, and ive read a couple of posts where people refer to an old"small" frame, and to a new "big" frame, and i just dont know where this pistol fits. Thanks advance.

    You've got the old "small" frame Witness, and European American Armory *DOES* have 9mm upper conversions in stock right now. (At least they did about 2 weeks ago when I asked them this exact question).

    You can give them a call and they can confirm this by checking the serial # of your gun.

    Since the .41AE was designed as a deliberate drop in replacement to 9mm luger (the cartridge has a rebated rim) you should be able to get away with just a new 9mm barrel and a magazine.

    9mm luger CZ-75 magazines should also work and might be a little easier to find.

    That's exactly what I meant.[8D]
