I was thinking of getting my Para Ordnance 16.40 LDA converted to 10mm. The concern I had was with the higher pressures of 10mm, will this cause stress on the frame and shorten the life of the gun? I am concerned the Para .40 frames are not setup for 10mm and although you can do the conversion, is it wise? From what I read the Colt frames are strengthened to accept the higher pressures.
I am in a trade deal right now trading my 16.40 and money for a Colt 10mm. The guy I’m trading has several unfired Colt 10mm’s and I basically get my pick. Thing is, I will end up trading my barely fired 16.40 LDA and spending an additional $300 to $900 extra for the Colt.
But then I thought, why not just get the Para converted?
Or maybe I should just sell the LDA and get the P16 converted. Or maybe I should just get a new .45.
Any comments are appreciated.
