At the SHOT Show in January one of the Remington people told me they would be coming out with "improved" versions of some former Para-Ordnance models. They changed something for sure, because he told me that the magazines will be different, and may or may not interchange with Para magazines. (Really? You make them, and you don't know if they interchange?)
My view is, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Para-Ordnance built good guns. I've owned half a dozen or more of them over the years, shot two of them in competition without ever encountering a stoppage, and I still have a couple that are in my carry rotation. Considering all the problems Remington had when they came out with the R1 (I mean, the 1911 design is over 100 years old, all they had to do was follow the blueprints! How hard is that?), I can't see how it would be smart to take a chance on a new Remington double stack. Maybe after they've been on the market for a couple or three years, IF they don't have reported issues, but not right after introduction.
