I was looking at those same ones today........I kept thinking how one of them would be a good purchase with my stimulus check. I don't think the wife would agree.

Those are neat. Sorta CZ-75-ish guns made in Italy. The Mossad used all sorts of pistols from Hi-Powers to 92 Berettas and those CZ-75 hybrids and now carry the Glock 19 (from what I have researched).

I have an FN Hi-Power that was an Isralei State Security piece, but it does not have the large "Mossad" markings. It only has "Fabrique Nationale Herstal Belguim" on one side of the slide and "9mm NATO" on the barrel. It also wears plain checkered walnut grips and a flat black bluing. Great shooter.

Those look to be really neat collectors items. I'd love to have one, but they're sorta pricey for a Tanfoglio.
