[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 2289347, member: 9374"] I've got a Para and a Springfield. Both have been ridiculously reliable, without a single problem I can remember. The Springfield is a V-10 Champion commander-length, meaning it's ported to reduce muzzle rise. My(ex)wife could shoot good groups with it when she couldn't shoot polymer-frame .40 S&W guns. Made a big difference to her. Personally I like my Para LDA better in the hand, but it isn't quite as accurate from the few hundred rounds I've put through each. Not sure if the porting in the Springfield is the cause of that, but being that the V-10 grip safety starts really digging into my hand after a hundred rounds or so, I think I am going to look into changing that out. I've been really dying to get my hands on a Sig Nightmare or even better, a Sig Scorpion. :D And I'm hooked on the commander-length. I just don't care for the larger GI size. Haven't tried an officer's model, but I'm very comfortable with the ones I have. I don't think you can go wrong with 1911s, there are so many things you can do with them, from swapping for higher-end parts or having a gunsmith customize/optimize them... so many options. I love 'em! [/QUOTE]
