Two, one has the Crimson Trace laser sight grips on it, but those stay here!!!!! I have a Walther P-99QA with the green and black frame in .40cal. I could let it go if you are interested.

Dang :) I'm gonna save up and guy a Para-Ord LDA P14 one day, I hear they still have 14 rd. preban mags available. What did they do, manufacture the HECK out of them and stockpile rooms full of them, just before the manufacturing ban?

Thats exactly what happens. Preban stuff goes for an arm and a leg. I have a Para Ord. P10 Limited, it is a VERY nice piece but it is only good for self defense. It is so compact that it almost jumps out of your hand when fired. My friend came down this weekend and brought his new toy, The new S&W 500mag revolver. That thing is a BULL!!!! I would compare the p-10 recoil to it anyday.

Where'd you get/order your Paraord from? After browsing their site, I believe I'd want the tac-four due to the shaved hammer and beavertail, that thing looks schweeeeeeeeet.

The P-10 Ltd was a gift from my grandfather. If I was in the market for a new pistol, I would probably go with Kimber. They have several nice setups.

Wow, kickass, I didn't know Kimber made hi-cap 1911's... I like 'em. Looks like MSRP is same as Paraord though, in the $1k range :( ouch!

You might also want to check out some Sigs. Out of all my pistols my Sig Sauer P239 is by far my favorite. Very easy to shoot and extremely accurate. It is just an all around nice pistol that is very fun to shoot.

One word of caution about high capacity firearms, THEY ARE HEAVY (when loaded)! This is something you might want to consider before purchasing one. I just buy a couple of extra clips for all my pistols. This seems to work for me.

No pun intended, but Sigs look to "foriegn". Somebody here at work is selling a Sig P220 for $200, but they just look... odd... and I don't like the "passive" safety they use, as compared to a 1911's safety's.
