Para Warthog

By NRA Staff (RSS)

November 19, 2012

A compact .45, Para's Warthog delivers full-size stopping power in a carry-size package. Better yet, it features the ever-popular 1911 design.

With its small size, ample stopping power and generous capacity, the Warthog is one that conceal carry practitioners will certainly want to take a look at—and a fine addition to the Gun of the Week series.

Featured here is the stainless steel edition of the Warthog.

Capacity: 10+1
Barrel: 3"
Weight: 31 oz.
Length: 6.5"
Height: 4.5"
Hammer: Spurred
Sights: Fiber-Optic Front/ 2-Dot Rear
MSRP: $1,039.00

One of the best guns I've ever owned I put grip tape on grips I carry it daily so im not that worried about wear but it still looks new and I've had mine for 3yr now going on 4.

Looks nice but to rich for my blood. I'll have to stick with the old Star PD.

Too pricy to be of serious interest.

I have the Para P12 and it shoots awesome. This one seems to be the little brother.

It looks nice but pricey, I have the XDs 45 and it is smaller with 7 rds. Love it and not as heavy to carry.

Nice looking gun. I didn't see how thick it is,but look's like it would conceal well enough. Interesting.

Fantastic weapon, but as a retired Captain at one Department as Chief of Police and in Dallas when President Kennedy was killed, I cannot afford this great weapon in this economy. My wife's health insurance cost me that much a month. To high.

This is the perfect concealed weapon. They say it has lots of stopping power? With a name like warthog, so it should. I hope it lives up to its namesake, just like the A-10 Warthog tank killer. Be responsible with your weapon people.

Looks like it might be too much gun for the grip you get.

I've used a variation of this gun as my daily carry gun since 2005. No dissapointments, no failures. A handful, but worth it!

Really is a spectacular example of 'big-boy' carry! I love 1911's but this might be more of a distraction in a time of 'stress' than a useful weapon, but it sure would fun to mess around with!

FIRST! Looks pretty sweet, must be dbl stack to get 10+1.

Looks like something worth investigating, but the beavertail and fat grip may make it unwieldy as a compact. My Detonics was likely better designed.
