I'm glad to hear yours is still running great. I'll post up pics and my own opinion of the gun once it comes in.

i just bought one from the gun show in richmond va yesterday. the first time i saw it i fell in love immediately! i am now waiting for it to be transfered as north carolina only allows transfers from out of state to a dealer who has the ffl. i expect to get it by friday.

my question is can i get a 9mm slide and barrel kit so i can shoot 9 too? if so, do you know of any resource?

thanks a lot.

Wish my P16 would have worked out that well. It was an absolute POS until I dumped about as much as I paid for it in gunsmithing fees and aftermarket parts. Between trips to the factory for warranty service and the time it spent at the gunsmith, I had it for about 5 months before it was usable for anything but a paperweight.

I have heard of other guys having trouble with the P series guns as well, especially the aluminum frame models. My two Para's are still running great, although with the shortage of primers, I am shooting less pistol than I used to.
