Key Features
- Traditionally Rifled Cylindrical Barrel – This barrel design provides consistent accuracy shot after shot, which matters when every tenth of a second counts on the clock.
- Serrated Slide – The aggressive serrations give you a sure grip when racking the slide under stress or with sweaty hands, so you never fumble a reload.
- Beavertail-Style Frame – It locks your hand high and tight, reducing felt recoil and keeping the muzzle on target for faster follow-up shots.
- Railed Dust Cover – Mount a light or laser for low-light stages without adding bulk, keeping the balance point right where you want it.
- Double / Single Action Trigger – The first shot is a smooth DA pull, then crisp SA breaks for the rest, giving you control and speed in equal measure.
Who It’s For
This pistol is for the competitive shooter who values precision and controllability over pure flash. If you shoot USPSA, IPSC, or local steel matches and want a 10mm that tames the cartridge without sacrificing speed, the Stock I fits the bill. It’s also a fine choice for the handloader who enjoys pushing 10mm to its full potential on the range.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Excellent build quality from Tanfoglio; accurate barrel; 13+1 capacity gives you plenty of firepower; DA/SA trigger is versatile for competition starts.
- Cons: The factory fixed sights are adequate but not adjustable – you may want to swap them for fiber optics if you shoot in varied light conditions. Also, the 10mm recoil is stout for newer shooters, though the beavertail frame helps manage it.

The Zev OZ9 is a striker-fired custom build with higher capacity in 9mm but at a steeper price. The Agency Arms G20 is a Glock-based 10mm with a polymer frame and striker action, offering a lighter carry option but less refined trigger for competition. The Tanfoglio Stock I splits the difference with a steel frame and DA/SA trigger, giving you a dedicated competition platform in 10mm at a mid-range price.
