About the Gun

C-Series Single-Stack Model. In 1999, Para-Ordnance introduced their LDA (Light Double Action) trigger system. The LDA was touted first truly successful double-action 1911 pistol, every shot actually being double-action only with an extremely light trigger pull. This eliminated the need for cocked and locked carry, common with 1911 style pistols.

About the Cartridge

This cartridge was developed by John Browning and was adopted by the United States Ordnance Department along with the Colt-Browning automatic pistol in 1911. It has also been made the official military handgun chambering by several other governments, notably Argentina, Mexico and Norway. The 45 Automatic is the most powerful military handgun cartridge in use today. This is a heavy and powerful sub-sonic round. Although its muzzle energy can exceed 400 ft-lbs, its velocity and bullet weight creates a steep trajectory curve that limits its effective range to self-defense distances.
