After years considering a 3" 1911 style pistol, I finally bit the bullet on the Para USA Elite Carry. I must say, after 100 rounds (only had it 1 day) I am impressed, so far. With the 2 Check-Mate 6- round mags it comes with, this thing chambered, fired and ejected every round with no trouble whatsoever, locking open upon the last case ejecting. I was shooting my 200 gr. hand loads, and expected the recoil to be greater, but it is softer shooting than a G36. The finish on the gun is superb, it is built tight, and the only criticism (albeit minor) I have, is that the trigger has just a little more take up than I'd prefer, and just a bit of creep, which in all fairness, may get better with more rounds downrange. The trigger is still certainly very serviceable, especially considering the role it was designed for. On a target, offhand at 21', I was keeping most rounds in a 3-4" circle, although it was duplicating lots of holes. If you are on the fence about the U.S.A. made Para Elite Carry, rest easy, the quality is there, and with the exception of the minor trigger gripe, it is on par with my Kimber Pro Carry. If it keeps up the good work, and i dont doubt it will, it will definitely be getting a (looong) turn in the permanent carry rotation. Buds delivered in just a couple days and the transaction with them and my local FFL was seamless and pleasant.
