Description
There are pistols you shoot without a second thought, and then there are pistols you pause to admire before even picking them up. The Delta AR TG 15S is absolutely one of those. Made in Italy by Delta AR S.R.L., it’s a firearm that blurs the line between machinery and sculpture. All stainless steel, mirror-polished, and unapologetically bold it looks like someone built it just to prove metal could have personality.
This particular piece is in outstanding condition, complete with its original factory case, the rare CD-style owner’s manual, and two extra magazines. The hardwood grips have that chunky, old-school heft with deep checkering that bites in just right. The rear slide serrations are cut deep, the rear sight is fully adjustable because yes, it’s pretty, but it’s also meant to perform. Chambered in 9x21mm IMI, it’s a fascinating slice of 1990s firearm history explicitly designed to skirt Italy’s restriction on military calibers. A clever workaround that gave collectors something rare and a little rebellious.
And when you shoot it? It’s heavy in the best way. The weight tames recoil, the wide grip anchors your hand, and the low bore axis makes follow-up shots feel like second nature. The contrast between the polished frame and blued small parts, trigger, slide stop, and mag release adds rhythm to the design, like notes in a song. If you’re drawn to precision steel with attitude, the TG 15S deserves a spot in your collection. It’s not just a pistol, it’s a conversation piece with a pulse.
