I know we have a few "gun men" on here. Hoping you could shed some light...TIA - JKE

I cannot speak directly to the .40, but I own two PO's (P-12, P-14), and have nothing but good to say about the fit / finish / performance / reliability / accuracy of their weapons -

--I kinda wish I had bought the P-16 rather than the -14...

I got the chance to shoot Dieseldude4X4's Para .45 with the LDA trigger setup yesterday at the Chapter 7 "Appliance Recyling" Meet & Eat.
I must say I was very impressed.
VERY light takeup which ***** the hammer, and a nice crisp 'break'. Pretty darn accurate too.

I was suspicious of the LDA...Pretty nice huh? - JKE

I was suspicious too.

I was impressed.

See if a local range will lets you test fire or at the least slip in a "Snap-Cap" and dry fire it.

What Ed says, it's real sweet.

you married to the .40cal? it's a pretty pricey round... very good stopping power, but if I'm dropping coin on a high dollar round, I'm going 357sig

Shovelhead

I'd hafta agree.
Any reason you're not going with the .45?

My 1/2 cent worth of an opinion-
Buy a Springfield XD. You can get it in .40 s&w, .357 Sig and the .45 Gap-
The 40's now come with 12 round mags, thanks to the AWB sunset. They shoot as good or better than any Glock I have owned and cost less.
Check out http://www.hs2000talk.com/index.php for some great info.
By the way- the Para is O.K also....

JKE

I am no collector by any means. However, I have begun to get an intrest.

Not married to the 40. want to broaden my cal selection. 357 and 40 are next. already got the P220 Sig 45. still eyeballing the entire sig line up. just curious about the Para. I know sig is good ...and there will be rounds a-plenty.

Any other suggestions? - JKE
