    Wink need help/review of EAA Witness 45 acp

    I just picked up new to me 45 acp. Its a full size Witness steel frame handgun. Blued finish,hard rubber grip panels. Basic three dot sites. I came with nice hard case and 2 14 round mags.

    I am looking for a "fun" gun in 45 acp. Not really looking for racegun,target,carry,etc,etc... But I want to hit what I am aiming at with in reason(lol). I want it to function with out giving me a head ache.

    I googled this gun but really only found the "plastic" model.

    Thanks Koz

    Try searching "Witness Classic", I've got one in 9mm. Great range toy, too heavy to carry & I'm not keen on cocked & locked without a grip safety.
    Tact is just not saying true stuff. I'll pass.

    There is no problem with cocked and locked ,pistol can also be shot decocked in DA mode. Right now your best deal would be a Sar K2 45 acp 14 round mags from BudsGunshop.com were $398 yesterday its a EAA clone . I have one great shooter one of my favorites , heavy pistol that soaks up the recoil.

    Witness pistols are very nice my son shoots his match 9mm in IDPA . Very accurate never has it malfunctioned . The match 9mm and Match 45 models sell at Buds for a little under $600 --$569.00 I believe. If you want DA/ SA get the standard steel or steel poly frame versions $400 range they all shoot great.

    My Witness Classic does not have a decocker, the older BTA 90 models did. I don't think Tanfoglio currently makes a decock model Witness. To decock mine you would have to lower the hammer revolver style, not the safest thing to do imo.
