Looks for Match

Looks for Match (2/11)

  1. How are the ends finished? Crimped or rolled?
  2. Thanks. I do have a couple of MBXs that came with the Para. They don't do slidelock either. I'll learn to adjust. It's a shame, though. 1911-style guns are the only ones that slidelock for me. Everything else, I tend to ride the slide-release with my thumb (as if it were a safety).
  3. Oh...... the rest of my mags work fine on this gun, and only this one has a measurably low catch hole. I'm too cheap to throw it away. The silly thing is that I’m willing to do work to fiddle with it, but not willing to do the work to send it back.
  4. Thank you. I considered taking it to a muffler shop and having it welded. I'm sure they know how to handle thin steel. But.... grinding it smooth on the inside after that would be a challenge.
  5. I bought a couple Remington R1 mags to test out in my Para 16.40. They both feed rounds, but one hangs just a bit too low. It rattles a bit, and gives no slidelock. It was a $50 magazine, and it works, but I’d like to get it to sit a bit higher into the gun. Are there any options for getting this done? I’m considering cutting a slot just above the catch hole and bending the metal down. Then fill my hole with carbon fiber/epoxy.
  6. Thanks very much. I just picked up a Para P-16 Limited. I like Paras, but the mag thing will be cumbersome.
  7. Necro-thread.... it’s years later. What are good magazine options that exist for the P16? I don’t care about max round-count. I’d like reliable, last-round-slidelock, and works with a magwell. With the death of Para and Remington.... what options exist these days?
  8. I thought I might be the only person who still has a 45ACP Para Ord. i can’t identify your base pads, though. Is that a locking screw in the corner?
  9. kcult. It's junk. But I like you, so I will send you $300 and take it off your hands!
  10. Do what I do.... - Bend over allowing gun to fall on floor.... - Take care of business..... - Call R.O. over to pick up gun off bathroom floor NO D.Q.!
  11. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=96807 Build up what you need underneath, then wrap like a bicycle handlebar. Sticks to itself insanely well, yet it's grippy but not sticky to hold onto.
  12. That would be a bigger deal to you, if you lived here. Signed, NY resident.
  13. If something isn't expressly forbidden (or required) by the rules, it is allowed. Rules are always "limiting", never "allowing". That is my opinion on all rules, in this sport, and in life. EDITED TO ADD: Even things that are 'required" by rule, are actually "forbidden" by rule (in that you are forbidden from doing anything else).
