This is an update to my previous 1-star post. I'm now giving the gun a 4-star rating not based on the entire experience, but on how it performed since being repaired.

I called Para Customer Service, explained the problem, and the rep asked me to return the gun on their nickel so they can make it right. He thought it might be an ejector problem, but it was just his guess. He didn't seem confident that he knew what might be causing the problem. Because of their workload, he thought it may be 3 weeks or so before the gun comes home.

I got back the LTC Tac from Para after only 11 days total time. Beat my expectations by at least 10 days. Before I took it to the range, I ran the action through with each magazine and it seemed to be a little looser (but NOT loose) and smoother. Everything seemed to work right, so I had a pretty good feeling about it. The paperwork that came back with the gun detailed the work performed as: "installed extractor / polished barrel hood, breechface, feed ramp / test fired 5 mags and functions at 100%".

I took it to the indoor range and fired 50 rounds. I first loaded 2 rounds in each mag for a total of 10 rounds and the gun operated flawlessly. Next I loaded 8 rounds in each mag with the balance of the 50 round box (MagTech). The first 41 rounds were flawless. The 42nd round didn't chamber properly. I racked the slide, the round chambered, and I fired it. I put the last mag in and all 8 rounds fired flawlessly. So, not 100%, but 98%.

I was pulling the trigger as fast as I could get the sight back on target. I was pressed for time and wanted to go through 50 rounds. This considered, still a very nice group.

I'm very satisfied. Really nice shooting gun. Not sorry I bought it. I still don't understand how they can send out a new gun in that condition, but cudos to Para's customer service.

The break in period is 500 rounds, so I'm hoping for 100% reliability by then.
