Want Specific Israeli Variant of Tanfoglio TA-90
308OTC
Member Posts: 4 ✭✭
I want to purchase a very specific variant of a used Israeli import of the Tanfoglio model TA-90 9x19mm Luger Parabellum pistol. I'm willing to pay a fair price IF it is in very good to excellent condition. However, it MUST meet the following specifications -- no exceptions, so don't bother to ask if yours doesn't meet these specs. I've seen this specific variant for sale on GunBroker and elsewhere before, but each time someone else beat me to it.
(1) Blued finish; reasonable amount of wear for used pistol okay;
no chrome, no parkerized, no cerakote, or any other refinishes.
(2) True Rowell hammer (as seen on Springfield Armory P9 pistols).
(3) Extended strong-side safety -- ON THE FRAME right where God and
John Browning intended it; safeties don't belong on the slide.
(4) Model TA-90 markings on the left side of the slide.
(5) COMBAT SHOOTING COHAI marking on the left side of the frame.
(6) Israel Shooting Association logo on the right side of the frame.
(7) ABSOLUTELY NO LANYARD STUD MOD OF ANY KIND ON THE GRIP FRAME
UNLESS IT CAN BE EASILY REMOVED WITHOUT DAMAGING THE FRAME.
(8) If the grips are in good shape, fine; if not, no big deal
because I'll most likely want to replace the grips anyway.
(9) I'd much prefer the rounded contour trigger guard variant, but
it's not a show-stopper if yours has the "hooked" style trigger
guard because I'll have the hook ground off before refinishing.
(10) I'd much prefer the fixed 3-dot sights in good condition, but
that's not really a show-stopper either if yours has otherwise
because I'm assuming that I'll likely need to install new sights
anyway. These pistols frequently came into the country with
dinged up sights -- especially in the case of the rear sights.
If you have this particular variant of an Israeli imported Tanfoglio model TA-90 pistol and you're willing to sell it for a reasonable price (depending on overall condition), let me know. I'm a collector of pistols based on the CZ 75 design and a serious buyer with an excellent track record on GunBroker. Thanks.
