A pig with lipstick is still a pig.. Their record of customer service, or lack thereof, speaks volumes.

x2 to that...I once had a GI Expert that never ran from day one.I later discovered the feed ramp wasen't completely finished and out of spec which caused the rounds to jam 50% of the time...There are many other better choices out there for the same money...
 
Their president gave me a tour through their factory in Scarborough about 15 yrs ago. He even offered to let me try out their guns in their on site range..but I never took him up on it..wasnt into handguns...still not..

Shame they left Canada with their jobs..and I dont know why they did....maybe anti gun Mayor Miller?

I know they had a big internal theft issue ten yrs ago....lots of Paras were showing up on the streets..no serial numbers on them...turned out employees were stealing some part by part.
 
Comrade Miller forced them out... just like all of the gun clubs in Toronto

Not really true. They were doing most of their sales in the U.S. anyways, and the decision to move south had been made long before Miller came to office.

Hopefully they get their QC issues sorted out one day.
 
I don't know about today's QC on Paras but the video does give a hint on today's marketing. Call a gun "Black Ops", stamp the name on the slide along with a tactical styleized version of a pigeon (aka as the purchaser), and the couch commando crowd has an instant wet dream. Dropping the gun out of a helicopter (couch commandos dream about getting a ride in a hopty copter). run over the gun with a military style truck (truck should be painted sand colour due to Aftghan conflict is still in couch commandoes minds), and kick sand over the gun - see truck style and you have a mean ass gun worthy of any couch Commandoes foot locker.

LOL true but if they end up selling a bunch to these people, it's still a smart move on their part haha
