wiley · 02-23-2004, 06:10 PM

I'm looking for imformation about the high capacity blue/black 10mm frame Para made in the early 90's. Pro and cons and how common they are.

Thanks

wiley,
If it's just the frame you're looking for, the current gunsmith kit frame will handle 10mm. I have one in the works now and I have 5 16rd mags for the P-16.40 that will handle 10mm just fine. Many people do 10mm conversions to the Para .40 already. I know this doesn't answer your question well, but I hope it helps. I never knew there was a 10mm specific frame built by Para.

Respectfully,
Jim Keeney

I had bought one of the smith kits in the early 90's and included with the frame was a 15rd 10MM magazine. Base plate is steel and marked with Para Ordnance Inc and 10MM. I had bought 4 extra magazines a long with it. I had the intention of making a 10MM PO to shoot in IPSC/USPSA but since PO didn't make a production gun in that caliber, I used the frame to make a gun in 45ACP. I think at the time, there was no P-16s.
