The Witness Compact has the same measurements but a lighter weight of 1.75 pounds. It weighs in at 1.9 pounds and has a very affordable list price of $476. 380, 9mm and 40SW, with a round capacity of 13 +1. The Pavona measures 7.3” end to end and is 4.5” in height. I approach this review naturally as a woman and will compare the Pavona, which is promoted specifically as a woman’s gun, with the standard gun, the Witness Compact, from a woman’s perspective. I received both the Witness Pavona Polymer Compact, chambered in 9mm, and the Witness Compact 9mm to compare. This is critical because it signals the beginning of a give-and-take relationship with women shooters that hasn’t existed in the gun-manufacturing world before.
It’s so refreshing to see a company with such determination to ‘get it right’, and produce a gun that truly does work for women, rather than just slapping some color on a man’s model and marketing to women because it’s the trendy (and profitable!) thing to do. It’s interesting to note that EAA/Tanfoglio refers to this gun as an “evolutionary project”, meaning they see it as a work in progress, and are committed to making modifications and improvements to the firearm, based on the feedback of its women customers. The Pavona semi-automatic pistol is specifically engineered with their issues in mind, and addresses many of the common problems women have with guns. The creative team included Sharon Lacy, who did extensive research on the needs of women shooters, including gathering direct feedback from women gun owners of all ages and experience levels. Designed by and for women, this pistol is more than just a pretty face. Enter the EAA Witness Pavona, built in Italy by Tangfolio.
