shred Posted February 25, 2023 Share Posted February 25, 2023 ...at least the factory ones are. STI frames were available with no ramp cuts and gunsmiths would do whichever they wanted on them. Pretty easy to tell by popping off the slide and looking at the frame-- if the rearmost part where the bottom barrel lug goes is rounded, it's a Clark/Para. Squared off, Wilson/Nowlin. Every now and then someone will try to change a W/N to C/P, but it's rare. Top is C/P with the 'bowtie', bottom W/N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
