It seems EAA has made many more great guns than lemons
Just to clarify, EAA is an importer. The company has never manufactured a firearm. They have brought in Saiga products, Sarzilmas, Zastava and a host of other European makes.
The Witness series pistols, made by Tanfoglio of Italy, are what EAA is best known for. Tanfoglio has been making guns for quite some times, and is a well known brand all over the world. Top competetive pistol shooters like Eric Grauffel use Tanfoglio pistols. The Tanfoglios have been imported by other companies in the past under different model names, such as the TZ-75 and TA-90. I believe EAA has been the exclusive USA importer since 1998.
If you ever have to deal with EAA, just be courteous and polite when you call. I think a lot of people hear about the "horrible CS" and enter into the phone call with a crappy attitude, which is reflected back by the recipient of said call at EAA. I have never had a problem, though I've only ever called to order magazines, springs, sights and other accessories.
