    Uh oh. The LGS has a Para Hawg 9 for cheap. Maybe I should pick it up as a collector.

    What you you think of the modern Para's? I have only heard complaints about the "Power Extractor," is really all bad?

    I had and loved a Para P-14 .45acp. I still curse the day I sold it!

    But didn't they buy Bushmaster and resurrected the company after it was doomed for bankruptcy?

    They also bought DakotaArms in Sturgis and I have heard no troubles.

    True. I was just pointing out the fact that Soros isn't connected with them.

    Soros is not involved in Freedom and will never be. The princpals of Freedom are all gun nuts with extensive collections of guns that are shot frequently.

    Dan Quayle (a noted defense expert) is on the board.

    The people involved in Freedom are the good guys.
