Just picked up a para expert 1911 for $350 OTD at field and stream (I know, fuck dicks). They had a black ops I could have picked up for 600

Right now all para is 50% off

Was I good to fo?

Word on the street is the brand is being combined under the remington name. Is it true?

The people who own Remington bought Para after the founder of Para passed away from what I remeber reading awhile back.

The guy at field and stream said they are getting rid of the para name and manufacturing the gun now under the remington name. That's why they discounted them so much he said.

Good deal. I picked up an expert commander for $400 a little while back. I am really pleased with it. No issues yet.

I hope to experience the same. Be safe and enjoy.

That's a nice buy!  Wish I knew about that sale...  I take it Remington will be honoring the warranty if it's ever needed?

Yes Remington warrantied mine when the ambi safety broke.
Actually very good service.

I called & gave them the serial number, they had a replacement part to me in 3 days.
