set out to pick up a keltec 9mm from a pawn shop in town but it was gone when i got there, so i drove over to the other one across town and started looking around. they had a smith (i dont know the model) 9mm which i handled and was thinking about getting, they there was this other thing stitting next to it. It was a Tanfoglio BTA 90 subcompact 9mm. where the smith was double action only with a realy long stiff triggerpull, this little guy could be fired single or double action like a 911. the smith's frame was i believe polimer, but in any case the bottom half of the thing was lighter than the top half and it just didnt feel well ballanced. the tanfoglio is all steel, no plastic or polimer anywhere, well ballanced in the hand with some weight to it, especialy with a full mag. the mag that came with it was designed for the full sized pistols so it sticks out of the bottom of mine a bit, but honestly i like it because it gives me a place to rest my pinkey, wich cant fit on the little handle, and it holds 17 rounds. all in all i REALY like this little gun. only problem is that its a little hard to find a whole lot of info on this particular model. oh also, its supposedly a cz clone. iv never handled a cz though, so i couldnt tell you just how closley they match.
here are som pics of the internet. mine is the exact same as these, but i have nice polished wood grips.
also if someone has had any experience with this thing or has any info on it at all, good or bad, id love to hear about it.
