Mossad/Tanfoglio 9mm Compact

[037Leo]

Ok so I just won action for one of thesehttp://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=225463431 for around $220 rubber grips not as in as good condition . Late night impulse purchase.   My question is which magazines does it use ? I know these were not used by Mossad but by Israeli police/ civilians but cold not resist

Nice Series 88 Tanfoglio 9mm Compact!   

Magazines may be a problem here as CDNN states on their website that the Witness Small Frame 13 round 9mm Magazines will not work with it. I would buy regular Small Frame 9mm Full Size 15/16 round Magazines for it.  The Full Size Magazines may require "Surgery" if you want them to fit flush.

Well i got a CZ75B will try those.  Wonder if  mechgar mags for cz75 compact will work

[tekarra]

It is worth a try.  Sometimes they fit.

CZ75B Magazines should work.  CZ P01 magazines also.  Can't speak to the CZ75 Compact Magazines, but they would be worth a look.

the gunbroker listing says "
This is a recent import by C.A.I. Very few compact models were brought in and we have three of them."

is this the case, as they look identical to the canik guns, and they are current imports?? cool i like them alot. now if these are recent imports, and they look identical to the canik 55, are there some CAI imports that look like jericho's??

what do you think JWC007?

[jwc007]

While these "Mossad" Compacts are current imports, they were made back in the late 1980's.  It is possible that the Canik 55 Magazines would work, but the only way to be sure is to try them. 

So far as we know, the Canik models are an un-authorized Tanfoglio Copy, so dimensions and tolerances could be somewhat different.

Yeah, these are vintage pistols that are being surplussed.
