EAA WITNESS 10MM COMPACT- any experiences? - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

I had a friend point this pistol out to me and the price seems a bit too good to be true but he says only good things about his experiences. Anyone else got any experiences with this firearm?

I almost bought that exact gun in wonder finish a year or so ago for 325 exactly, so I wouldnt be surpirsed if the price was that low.

I have a full-size blued Witness 10mm. I bought it NIB for less than $350. The older versions of the 10mm have some sight problems, like recoil makes them fly off. The new ones have set screws. A little pushing and JB Weld will do the trick on the old ones. You will also need to upgrade the factory recoil spring, if your friend hasn't already, to a 20 or 22 pounder. This does not really affect the felt recoil, only the wear and tear. Here's a great forum devoted exclusively to this gun: http://p201.ezboard.com/fczechpistols82792frm35

Hope this helps and I would buy the gun.
