Para Warthog

[MXD]

Does anyone have any real world experience with one of these? I'm saving up for a new compact carry gun and this caught my eye.

Yes,

I have a friend who has an older Warthog and loves it but buyer be ware
I have been told and also seen first hand at a shop, The newer model has some issues. I can honestly say they shoot nice and are pretty accurate for the size but I did see 4 units that had been returned to one shop all for the same type of extractor issue including one that had broken after only 5 YES 5 rounds were fired.

you probably won't like what you read about Para O on this forum.

i had one for a while, it was a great shooter, but I sold to fund other projects...

for a MA Hole, you are better off w / Smith & Wesson or a used one. check Collectors in Stoneham, MA, they always have 1911's there for decent prices

good luck

A search of the NES firearms forum yields much about the warthog.

Stay away, stay very far away.

It is probably the most hated handgun on NES.

Too bad about the reliability... I really like the look of it.

I owned one. I certainly would not trust my life to one.

That's only because most of these kids never tried a Jennings. (^_^)

na, it's not THAT bad, he can get it, sign up for a membership at a gun club in Woburn or Bedord and post a range report.

Para's quality control is poor and their customer service is worse. I will never buy another one. I had the LDA Carry Modedl in .45.
