| I bought a stainless expert maybe 3-4yrs ago now. First thing you should do before you leave the gunshop is throw the factory mags in the trash and buy chips for it before you leave. My factory mags fail to feed on the last round 90% of the time. The gun has been 100% with chip mags. Has eaten any ammo I've fed it in chip mags. |
Stay thirsty my friends.

I can't believe it took a few months to finally get my new GI Expert out to the range. The wife asked me to take her to the range today and I thought it would be a good opportunity to put the Expert through the paces. First off the pistol fired 100 rounds of 230 gr Blazer FMJ without a hiccup. I then ran a few magazines of Gold Dot Hollowpoint to make sure it would feed. The gun ran without any problems.
I really liked the front green fiber optic sight with black rear sight. At 7 yards and in I was able to put rounds on top of one another. At 25 yards I put most of the rounds in the black a few were a few inches left of black. For a $299 1911 I can be happier! I hope everyone else has had a good experience with theirs! |
| I got one last year. Have shot it multiple times, and never had a failure. The biggest drawbacks are that it comes with plastic grips and trigger, but that's why it is so cheap, so can't complain. Of course, it costs about a hundred dollars to add a new trigger and cocobolo grips. |

I just bought an Expert Commander. Reviews and a few conversation indicated that it is/has been one of Para's more reliable products.
Cant wait till I get back to my home in FL next week and take a trip over to my dealer to pick it up. Price was real good. Once it is broken in I can always throw some funds at it for upgrades if I want. |
