  1. When i switched to .40 call for single stack i bought 2 of these. I changed the guts and added a flat trigger, personal preference, And had some machine work to get it under 43 oz for USPSA. Have been great guns, Well worth the price and might pick up a third if I can find one for with a rebate.

     

     

  2. I have 3 that my Para's will be running with for Limited Nationals this year

    How old are your mags? I just bought 2 and their are some differences in the one I bought last year.

  3. After installing new sear, disconnector, hammer, trigger, main spring, tj shim and fitted an extra safety i had laying around and some stoning this is the result. Clean break, no creep, nice reset can't wait to run it through a practice. Waiting on an EGW magwell to show up.9763a25387ff7ab073e6e4e1af0269f9.jpg1f8dab6a7f02562badeaa6536feeb2d9.jpg

  4. Considering all the tinkering you have to do to get it "right" wouldn't you be better off with an STI? From what I remember Paras weren't that great to begin with.
    Glad to see Remington taking a chance on a gun focused on our market/sport but...
    I already have a Para and Remington makes sense due to mags and rig already set up for it. I have less in 2 guns (With the mods I have done) then some people have in their STI's.

    I have bought some parts that will start coming in this week and the replacing and fitting will begin.

  5. The gun has arrived I have disassembled it and started changing it.

    It is a renamed Para as I Thought. The rear sight even says Para Ord. The stock trigger brakes at 5lbs. The recoil spring was so tight I could not get it off the guide rod. I destroyed it taking it off since it was going to be changed any way.

    Vz grips that it comes with are the same as I have on my para so that is cool. Trigger is a little sloppy but I will be changing that also.

    I stoned the sear and hammer hooks and disconnected. But in a 17lb main spring and the trigger went to 4.2 lbs. I will be ordering a TJ shim and trigger, and hammer and mag release tonight.

    I checked the .40 ammo I used in my para, 200 gr BBI loaded at 1.185 it dropped right in.

    Tomorrow I will put some rounds through it and see how it feels.f74bc1d3f94a0a45fe1c5d1332460790.jpgc329af820420a31448b939e0f39cea6d.jpg105099e24e8a5f0c5ec57fe6661d5e1f.jpg2abd758618d73e90cd1635403a75fcbf.jpgcf030be698387fe79ecd3b811281fadd.jpg38fff7281054cdad66c729fd7979de9f.jpg

  6. I’m interested to hear. I haven’t had any trouble with my Para Pro Custom, but I have yet to even see a Remington double stack. 
    Mine gets delivered tomorrow. I won't pic it up till Wednesday though. I am going to try swapping some things on it to see what fits.

  7. I bought my PSA upper around december and had the short chamber issue. I sent mine back and the rebarreled it. I have ran a mixture of loads through it and mo issues now. 115s, 124s, and 147s. I dont remember the lengths I just grabbed a mix and started shooting. even mixed the ammo together to try and make it malfuction. So I am happy with my results.

    Published load data for WST doesn't exist, well it's not published any longer but in the past it has been provided by Winchester.  To that end, I ran 3.6gr of WST at 1.135 under a Bayou 147 in 9mm, giving me 128PF.

    I am running 3.7 under a 124/5 sns coated for 132pf out of a CZ
