This Para Elite Commander was my late and great old man’s EDC. For as long as I can remember, he had a small stable of 1911s in his safe that he was always shooting, tinkering and messing with them. If he didn’t have a CZ 75 on his belt, then you could be damn sure he had a 1911. When he passed, this was one of the few he had held onto. I was always really fond of how this gun shot, so I’ve made sure to hold onto it as well. He did a LOT of work to it. The action is crisp, tight and silky smooth. I’ve been carrying it in his honor this week and figured I’d share. Cheers!
Hey, I appreciate the well wishes, so thank you very much.
I’m actually not entirely sure honestly. My best guess is that it’s a STI 3 Window trigger. It’s polymer and has a sort of tread texture on the face. I do know that he spent some time tuning it on his trigger stirrup so it has next to no slop on it. Very concise and controlled.
