When You Need More than a Para Ordnance Frame for Sale, Sarco, Inc. Is the Answe

In the event you have stumbled across this article and have never heard of the term Para Ordnance before, that wouldn’t be entirely too bizarre. It might also mean you’re looking for information on Para Ordnance instead of a Para Ordnance frame for sale. Here’s something you have heard of before - the 1911 or the M1911, known widely by the popularity and huge number of variants it has spawned.

The original 1911 and all of the offshoots that have come about as a result of it, is a basic model that is one of the most popular handgun platforms ever designed. The original M1911 was developed over a hundred years ago to replace the aging double-action .38 caliber revolvers that U.S. troops were using at the turn of the last century.

The new M1911 not only had a better capacity and was capable of a high rate of fire, it was chambered in a cartridge that has become as famous today as the 1911 is: the .45 ACP cartridge, which represented a significant improvement over the smaller, lighter revolver round.

These things probably need no introduction, however; if you haven’t heard of Para Ordnance, it is that that needs the introduction. Para Ordnance was a Canadian company that, though relatively young in comparison to the M1911, was a specialist in creating 1911-style pistols. In the years since, it was rolled over into a new U.S. based company by the name of Para USA.

For over 20 years, Para Ordnance and Para USA developed some very popular 1911 style pistols. They were tough and reliable, but what people really liked about them was the cost. Para Ordnance has become well known for producing a much cheaper version of 1911 than one would be able to get elsewhere; it would save a buyer a lot over a Colt, for example.

Although they were not without their criticisms, Para Ordnance Pistols had a loyal following and some shooters still hang onto their old Para Ordnance 1911s because, let’s face it; some things refuse to die, and quality is good where you can get it. Unfortunately, because both Para Ordnance and Para USA are defunct, getting parts for these pistols can be somewhat of a trial without some background knowledge on where to look.

Therefore, if you did stumble upon this article in search of a Para Ordnance frame for sale (or some other parts) instead of a brief history and defense of the organization, you’re in luck. You probably didn’t need the ceremonious intro, anyway.

What you need is a place where you can reliably source all sorts of Para Ordnance parts to make repairs, replacements, upgrades, and modifications, and that source is Sarco, Inch. They offer up a ton of Para Ordnance accessories and parts including frames, slides, scales, parts kits, barrels, and much more. Looking for something specific, like a double stack mag?

M1 Bayonet Might Not Mean What You Think It Does

Image
When you type M1 bayonet into the search bar, are you looking for information about the bayonets paired with the M1 Garand? Or are you looking, specifically, for the model the United States termed the “M1 bayonet”? Because there are multiple bayonets that were compatible with the M1 Garand rifle, and the M1 bayonet (proper) is only one of them. Let’s start, well, where it all started - with the M1905. This is a sword-style bayonet that was actually designed for the M1903 Springfield Rifle and was predominantly produced between 1906 and 1922. It has a 16” blade with a fuller, a crossguard, and grips of walnut wood. Although it was produced for the M1903, it is also compatible with the M1 Garand. By 1943, the changing nature of warfare indicated a change in weaponry was also necessary, and the United States shortened the M1905 bayonet’s 16” blade to 10”. This new model was called the M1 bayonet, and it is also compatible with the Garand. The...
