Does it run good? 9mm or .45?

Not trying to buy it, just curious why you dont like it.

I'm guessing 45 if it's 14rd. The 40SW doublestacks are usually 16rd flush, and the 9mm's are 18rd.

I assume some Para parts like mags/triggers fit

IIRC it will be polymer, or mostly polymer, perhaps made by someone else.  Para has been doing it for a long time and their doublestacks don't really bring top dollar.  I wouldn't expect a Springer to, either.

The Kimber ones were polymer (BUL) and pretty good. I remember the Springfield ones and think they bragged up the "forged" part. But they didn't catch on apparently. I only remember seeing the double stack Springfield in a "mil spec" level of features.

Polymer?  Huh?

The Springfield was a Para clone but even more blocky and uncomfortable.  I only ever saw them in GI trim as well, which makes you wonder what they were thinking.

Someone here, I think either Derek45 or GregoryK, had two different frames crack on him when he was trying to compete with it.
