The Tanfoglio Pugio pistol, imported by the Italian Firearms Group, modernizes the classic 1911 for concealed carry. With a fiberglass-reinforced polymer frame, polygonal bull barrel, and chambered in 9×19, it offers precision, lightweight design, and durability. Features include interchangeable sights and a Picatinny rail for accessories, shipping with two magazines and a case.
Italian Firearms Group states “Imported exclusively by the Italian Firearms Group, the new Tanfoglio Pugio pistol is a modern take on the classic 1911, engineered for concealed carry and self-defense. Drawing inspiration from the ancient Pugio dagger—a favored weapon of Roman soldiers for its precision and ease of carry—this compact powerhouse delivers the same attributes in a sleek, lightweight, and highly accurate design.
The Tanfoglio Pugio stands out for its fiberglass-reinforced polymer frame and precision-engineered polygonal bull barrel, CNC-machined from a Lothar Walther tube. Chambered in 9×19, this versatile everyday carry solution combines strength and reduced weight with exceptional accuracy and reliability.
A double steel chassis reinforces the lightweight polymer frame for added durability, while the lightweight steel slide features rear serrations for fast and easy manipulation. The one-piece steel guide rod enhances performance and ensures long-lasting reliability.
For added versatility, interchangeable front sights offer adaptability to meet the needs of precision shooters, while an integrated Picatinny rail allows for seamless attachment of tactical accessories. An optics-ready version is available, utilizing the popular RMS footprint for red dot optics.
The Tanfoglio Pugio embodies precision engineering for superior handling and performance. Just like its Roman predecessor, it is light, easy to carry, and crafted for reliability in high-stakes situations. Whether you prioritize self-defense or seek a compact firearm for everyday carry, the Pugio is a standout choice.
The pistol ships with two 10-round magazines, a cleaning kit, and a hard plastic case, making it ready for action straight out of the box.”
