USED Para USA Expert 1911 .45 ACP 5" – Model 96746 – 8 Round

The Para USA Expert 1911 is a full-size, traditional single-stack 1911 chambered in .45 ACP. This example is model 96746 and uses the classic Government-size configuration with a 5-inch barrel, single-action trigger, manual thumb safety and grip safety. It offers the familiar handling characteristics of the 1911 platform with several practical factory upgrades.

This Expert features a black finish, three-hole aluminum trigger, extended beavertail grip safety, skeletonized hammer, fiber-optic front sight, extended magazine base pad and Hogue-style wraparound finger-groove grips. The pistol also comes with its original checkered grip panels, an 8-round magazine, factory Para hard case, paperwork and accessories shown in the photos.

The pistol appears to be in excellent used condition with only minor evidence of previous handling. The stainless-colored barrel contrasts nicely with the black slide and frame. With Para USA pistols no longer in current production, clean examples with their original case and accessories have additional appeal to shooters and collectors looking for a well-equipped traditional .45 ACP 1911.
