I was again thinking about getting a Witness Elite Stock to replace my full-size.  Same basic gun/features, just with the Elite series goodness in the fit.

Oh. I thought you bought the Double/Single version.

    I really have to say the Elite on up Witness guns are still in my opinion about the best value in a metal 10 you can get. Unless another 10 makes it to market the only other one on my screen is a Limited.

I bought my g20c from a gander mountain for $350. It was a trade in and the previous owner said he never shot it. According the the store employee, regardless it was immaculate and functions flawlessly even after 600+ rounds

Sqlbullet,

The Compact is almost there.There are times all 12 fire and not.I think if the mags were the newer ones,black follower Mec Gar,this would be a moot issue.Im hopeing for new compact mags for the 10mm besides red follower.It's accurate as all and can handle factory rnds,STHP,hornandy etc.Darn mags stink IMO.I sent EAA an email on newer mags for this compact.I even had offers from folks who shot it and handled,im a keepin.

Have you tried the owner of Elite Ammunition? He Smith's too and is a big EAA guy having all kinds of weird setups. He offered to help with my old one, so maybe you could ship it to him and see if he sorts it out.

He has a compact and it runs Nukes!

pacapcop

I might have to give him a try.Running nukes,man that must be a handful.Ill keep her med to low end.EAA did a good job upgrading etc from that new slide issue,barrel.I got the older fixed sights,gun is accurate.

Check out my deal back in the mid 80's.

Here are your photos. Bucket was easier and it looks awesome!




What does the new rod do for operation? Henning has good stuff!

pacapcop

Well.First impression i got from the Henning Rod as opposed to the factory rod was a notable differance in how smooth,almost silk like the slide worked.My obvious intrest was the design by Henning to reduce internal damage from the factory rod hitting against metal in repeated cycling.Mind you this was based on his own firearm being damaged,and im sure the time i can dedicate to shooting to the pros is laughable.My other decision was my conversation with owner/operator himself and my intrest in what i wanted to shoot and what im shooting with.I took his advise with the rod, and with a 10mm as opposed to a .40 the pounding is obvious.Also to my knowledge,their is know one i know specializing in Tanfoglio parts outside Henning.The factory rod,by sight and touch is obviously inferior to Hennings.Well worth the $ spent.It will need some extra muscle due to the increased extention of metal,but once spring is used alot,it will ease up.But i guess the real test is time.It is IMHO,no diff than putting a steel guide rod in a Glock vs the factory except the steel rod in a Glock is just smoother running.the Henning is more for damage control and smoother.

Intercooler

Gotcha! Well I you probably cost me $40 then, since I will probably spring for one  ;)

Won't fit the Hunter though. That is a different design totally.

IMHO,I would not touch.I say save your money for the Limited Pro OR a Glock lol.
