Here is a good little .25 Automatic, and one of the best that FIE Corporation ever marketed, the Titan series. Numbered model on this variant was E27B. Until 1966, this pistol’s ancestors were manufactured by Fratelli Tanfoglio S.N.C. of Gardone Val Trompa, Italy. Principal importer was Eig Cutlery of Miami, reorganized as FIE, Firearms Import and Export Corp, the direct ancestor to EAA, in December of 1966. FIE anticipated the size restrictions of the 1968 Gun Control Act and proceeded uninterrupted while small handguns like the Baby Brownings and Berettas got canned. FIE was already producing their own frames with fitted Tanfoglio parts. From this specimen’s A09000 range serial number, it was produced in 1967, the first year of domestic US Production for the Titan.

This is, after all, a pocket pistol, and that’s where its owner carried it. We rate it as only Good, 65 percent vicinity by our estimate, but photos ought to suffice for our distinguished shoppers to judge finish grade for themselves. Bore, chamber, and mechanism are all bright and clean. We do not believe this pistol has been fired more than 200 times.
