A difference of opinion, maybe it's the same magazine for both.
If either can use it, please PM me with your mailing info.
Same pistols. The Tangfolio Titan 25acp was a popular import before 68 through EIG. Then after the ban on iddy biddy pocket autos FIE out of Florida made USA frame from Zamak and imported the parts kits for assembly in the USA to get around restrictions. Tallbell is also right in that there were different names associated with these FIE, Targa, Excam etc. Tanfoglio has had lots of importers through the years.
The pistols themselves are pretty decent while they last. Not as durable as something like a Raven. The Zamak frames on the Tanfoglios have a couple weak points and like to crack at the barrel pin holes (two pins hold the barrel to the frame). Unlike the Raven (or other raven copied designs) the Tanfoglio has slide rails in the frame and the Steel slide on the Zamak slide rails tend to eat the rails so some stoning on the steel rails (roughly machined) is good practice if you are going to shoot them a lot. The steel used on the Titans is also pretty soft so you have to watch out for peening in some areas. Titans are kind of the budget guns of Italy. The 32 and 380 titans also have most of these issues. The 380s in particular (which have steel frames) also like to crack (around the barrel pin holes) and can peen.
Not bad little guns if you can get around all the quirkiness though and use them in the shoot a little and carry mode. They are reliable with ball ammo. I have carried them on occasion. Pretty thin and just big enough to fire and manipulate under stress. Safety wise they are not to bad. Single action with a half cock. I never carry one with a round in the chamber but some do (useing the half cock as a safety). The manual safety is the Beretta 1934 style which just blocks the trigger....I wouldnt depend on something like that with a small pocket pistol. Not sure how prone they would be to going off if dropped and landing on the hammer. There is no firing pin safety block on these.
They are what they are. For me the Raven is a better design which sounds kind of silly. The Ravens dont have slide rails to eat away not are the barrels pinned to the frame. There are also no thin zamak areas on the raven (thin and Zamak dont get along well). The ravens are a little bigger and fatter though. Ravens also have a better extraction system (if thats important to you on a blowback 25acp). The success of the Raven and the numbers produced and sold is largely a result of that 1968 ban. People still wanted pocket guns but the imports stopped coming in. Resulting in a bunch of American pistol manufacturers opening up shop and producing innexpensive Zamak pocket guns for the common man/woman to have an option for self protection. They were $50 pistols for a long time. Seemed like everyone had a little raven 25 back in the 80s and 90s. I got turned onto them by my FFL/machinist/gunsmith/builder who was anything but a gun snob. He carried Colts and Berettas but would also praise a lot of these innexpensive pistols as being excellent and well thought out designs regardless of any of the negativity that surrounded them (mostly political bait people fell for back then).
