I'm a new member here, but have been reading this forum for quite some time.
SO far its been a great source of info, opinions and viewpoints.
I will be getting my CCW permit soon, and had just about decided on the Sig p232, stainless, with Nills wood grips. I just LOVE the looks of a shiny, all-metal gun with wood... and the p232 in particular. But I kind of wish it had a manual safety instead of a decocker..
I know someone will suggest the PPK, saying that it LOOKS just like a p232, but has a manual safety. Well, I just don't care for the PPK... looks kind of funny to me... and the safety is BACKWARDS IMHO, all safeties should go DOWN to fire, not up
Then I saw the Para LDA, 3.5" 7+1 cap .45. Black slide, OD frame and gorgeous wood stocks
Anyone have experience with the Para in question? Sorry, I can't post a pic.
Is it easily concealable, reliable?
How about other metal frame pistols with a manual safety... I know they're out there. The 1911 is obvious, but I don't care for the hammer raised over a live round.
