I have found out that is a clone of the CZ-75, this one is in very nice shape, stainless steel - Made in Italy on the frame. My dad is looking to buy it from a friend and I dont know much about them, looking online they seem pretty good just want your honest feedback. I know its worth what someone pays for it but realistically what you pay for this firearm. Thinking $300+? Case and one magazine. Serial number G158XX. Appreciate your feedback.

Great little pistols, as noted a near clone of CZ, cast frame as opposed to forged. This one is an earlier model and there were some irregularities from time to time. Test shoot it before buying if you can. Pay attention to the frame, sometimes they will crack but that is typically 45 and 10mm but has been seen in 9s.
Replace all springs. Most EAA Witness parts will interchange I believe.
Incredibly great value and if it is a good one, they are awesome pistols. My kid just picked up a poly frame compact 45 and I just grabbed a 45 Elite Match for a screaming deal. The Elite is incredibly tight but smooth with a very crisp trigger.
300.00 is a fair deal.
Haven't shot them yet(need a need front sight) but looking forward to it.

I used to have a full size steel Witness in 9x19mm and with a second .40 S&W topend. I regret selling it as it was a good reliable shooter. They were made by Tanfoglio for EAA.

The Tanfoglio branded and built pistols come with a variety of different safety configurations, so not all are exact clones of the original CZ 75 set up.
