Proud daddy of a new (slightly new) Para Ord P12-45.

Let me know what y'all think...

Peace,

Great guns when they work.

Let us know how you like it after you've put a few hundred rounds thru it.

I love the trigger on mine - and like the accuracy and feel ... BUT - sorry to say - reliability is a bum deal. I have yet to follow some ideas given by Teddy Jacobson, which included uprated mag springs. Most probs seem to boil down to feed.

I rarely have to complain badly about a gun but - sadly my particular P12-45 is not high on my list of complements!

Ordinanance Notice they are only Para now? I think too many people were misspelling Ordnance... :)

I had one for carry. Too heavy for me, but I'm a wimp. Great guns when they work. The accuracy of the 1245 LDA gun was very good. So was my P13. With Para's it's hit and miss. I've had several and they are either very accurate or not. They either run or they don't. I'd suggest looking over it in person real good. I ordered a few and that was a mistake. I had 2 9mm versions I kind of wish I never sold. With the AWB over, 22+1 rounds was kind of cool. Especially with Wally world cheap ammo!

BTW, a bit off topic: I once say a guy shoot one of those with 22+1 9mm at pins. He used all his ammo and knocked over 4 pins. One still sitting on the table. :cuss:

Let us know how yours functions.

I've got one that has had all sorts of reliability problems: brass in the head, stovepiping, nose diving rounds, and that was AFTER sending it back to the factory for service.

I've got a new set of wolf springs for the mags I own, but haven't gotten around to messing with it. Haven't been in the mood to fool with it. I sure was disappointed. Turned me off from trying any other Para products, and I was interested in a couple of LDA models. Fortunately those feelings have passed.

Like P95Carry said, I like the feel alright, and accuracy was just fine. But reliability was a real downer.

Please let us know how yours works.

My wife has a Tac Four bought NIB. I had to change out the mag springs. It had problems with FTF. Wolff springs fixed it. NIce pistol. I have a C7.45, really lilke it.

seem like most of the issues that i read about the P12 is originating from the MAGAZINE... which i kind of noticed.

i've shot one through the other night, seems fine, but still not enough to determine... i will let you know how it does in the range.

although it gets snagged a bit on the ramp to the chamber when you first rack or pull the slide using hollow points... fmj's goes in much smoother. thats all.
