Well Good people, I have two para's. I have a P-12-45 that I use as my carry gun and I have a P-16-40 that I use in USPSA matches. I bought the P-16-40 back in the 1990's and still have the org. barrel link and pin set up and probably shot well over 150,000 rounds and still competeing with the same gun And never had a problem not once. Still seems to be shooting fine although I did start feeling a little trigger freeze. I think it has to do with the sear spring. I just ordered all new springs for this gun since I never have changed them for the life of the gun. Springs do seem to wear and lose their tension after so many rounds. Just like mag springs have to be replaced sometimes. All my springs have come in except the one I think I need, the sear spring. When it arrives I will replace all of them and check the function of my gun and see if this solves my small problem. If not, to the gunsmith for the first time since I bought the gun in 1995. BTW, I shoot every Sunday since 1995, and when I don't compete in local matches I usually go to the range and practice. Thanks for letting me vent here on your subject of the Para Ordnance.
