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.
