  • We review a 1911 with a double-stack magazine reminiscent of Para Ordnance A.K.A. Para USA. Take a look at a .45 ACP 1911 that you can't put down for low capacity.

    Of my 50 something handguns, one of the ones I was most delighted with is my Rock Island Armory Pro Ultra Match "Big Rock". 6 inch barrel, 16 round capacity, and 10mm.
    Puts all the full sized 9mm handguns to shame.

    I have a Para P14 Expert. It's also a double stack, 14 round .45acp 1911. It's a fantastic gun!

    I built my custom pistol off a Para-Ordnance frame in .45ACP. Managed to get lucky and snag a bunch of Remington R1 magazines where after they bought Para-Ordnance, they upgraded the magazine from 14 rounds to 15 rounds. They're also compatible with Taylor Freelance extensions that boost the capacity another 3 to 18 rounds, which is a lot of firepower in .45ACP. Usual carry setup for me now is the flush fit magazine concealed with 1 in the chamber (16 rounds total) and two 18 round extended magazines on backup (36 rounds total), totaling 52 rounds of .45ACP.
    The 14 round magazines should also be compatible with the Taylor Freelance extensions, just boosting to 17 rounds rather than 18. I would caution that the Mec Gar magazines with the "anti-friction coating" seems to have nosedive issues when I tried them. Don't know if it's due to the magazine body shape or the coating. The blued magazines from Armscor directly should work perfectly fine from my limited testing with my 10mm RIA 1911, though.

    I bought one about two months ago. As the manual said it takes about 500 rounds to get it broke in. The feed ramp needed a little polishing. Early problems with failures to feed. But now after 1000 rounds of hardball it is very reliable and very accurate. It is not light fully loaded but very stable. I love mine❤ !

    The nice thing about .45 ACP is, they don't require as many rounds to get the job done,.

    Great review. I own several brands of pistols. From H&K to RIA. I own 7 RIAs. This one is becoming one of my favorites. I was very impressed with the accuracy out of the box. I disagree with the price being a con. I think a sub-1k double stack .45 that is as quality as the Tac Ultra is quite a bargain. It is a heavy sumbitch. My biggest con regarding this pistol is that it only comes with one dang magazine! Keep up the great reviews.

    It's a sweet, pistol. I'm looking forward to adding this one to my collection. It's going to be home defense. I don't think I'll be adding this one to EDC. at 3 lbs fully loaded. Lol. But! Home defense and range day. Hell yea!😎🤘👌

    I've always loved my p14 45. Para Ordinance made a beautiful limited addition. Used to win pistol competitions with it. Of course during the magazine lies the gov tried to sell made reloads hell to find. Para gave certificates for 2 extra magazines you could purchase. Id buy the Rock Island if it came in long slide. However that one is a prime candidate for 460 Roland upgrade.

    • @alexskillz45
      @alexskillz45 Рік тому +1

      As long as there are threaded barrels made for it, it can be converted. All it takes is the addition of a compensator and getting the chamber reamed an extra 1/16" to fit the case. I would prefer to leave the chamber alone an handload 45super cases up to 45000psi, it would be more reliable.

    I like this, and I do not consider 48-oz 249 Oz weight a particularly heavy firearm. I am 6 ft tall and have never weighed more than 205 pounds, I currently weigh 175. I've carried super Blackhawks. A pair of them for a while. I carry a 1911 full-size regularly. What's a while I carry my CC variant in 40 Smith. It weighs 46 + OZ. I'm thinking of converting it to 357 Sig because I do like the night mm bullet. But it's really hard to get 1350 out of a 9 mm. Especially when the bullet doesn't even function properly until he gets to 1275, at least.
    But I find this absolutely superb, and none of the loads that you talked about are even warm loads. 185 grain Speer Gold Dot pumped up to about 1150 to 1200 feet per second will get the job done all day long.

    G. K. U.S.A. wouldn't a 6" 460 Rowland be nice, especially in bear country? This would be the answer to the 10mm, also in 6" barrel.

    Well, the FNX .45 has an absolute garbage trigger and I can squeeze the grip by the mag well with just a little hand pressure. Flimsy af.
    Last time I ever buy before I try. Couldn't get rid of it fast enough. So for me, the extra cost of the RIA is 100% worth it.
