so i recently bought a para ordinance s16-40 limited. pretty pricy gun but i wanted a really high quality .40 cal 1911 for target shooting. what i got was a jam-o-matic. the only gun ive seen jam more was a taurus pt 111 my friend had. i can NOT believe this. not only does it double feed (see title of this post) but it will also jam on the way to battery, (round sorta crooked and stuck on its way in) and also i got one stovepipe. today it jammed 4 times in 50 rounds (all double feeds), which for me, for a 1300 dollar gun, is totally outrageous.
im really frustrated that para's claim to fame the "power extractor" seems to be the problem. what else causes double feeds? i thoroughly cleaned and properly oiled the gun too.
i guess monday ill call para and start the whole process of sending it back, i hope it doesnt take forever.
no real point to this post other than to complain about my expensive junky gun, and to see if anyone else has had problems with para's. or if youve had any experience with their customer satisfaction.
