I personally don't like the Para Ordnance. My brother owns a .45 Para Ordnance handgun and I'm not impressed. It jams every now and again because the magazines are not very good quality.

What do you intend to use the pistol for? Concealed carry? Home defense?

You can't go wrong buying a Glock, Sig Sauer or Heckler and Koch. My next handgun purchase may be a Colt .45 Defender 90 series. I have heard good reviews about the .45 Colt Defender 90 Series. It holds 7 or 8 + 1 rounds of .45 ACP ammunition and it is very light and good for concealed carry.

I am also a fan of the Glock 30 and Glock 23. Both are also great handguns.

I like the model of the Colt but I have to say one thing about those rubber grips. I had a set like that on my Springfield Ultra-Compact and after carrying the thing for a couple of hours against my skin on a hot day, I was having some problems with my skin. The checkering was sawing away at my side. After I took the grips off, I noticed a lot of corrosion. I replaced the grips with some smooth "ivory" grips and stopped the problem of my side and the salt accumulation.

I found that to be true when I used after-market magazines. Never had a problem with Para mags though.

Anyone have any experience with a CZ 75 or similar CZ models?
