Manual

With law enforcement officers and competitive shooters
in mind, Para-Ordnance’s P-Series pistols offer unique
features along with the durability and reliability of a
time-proven design.
The P-Series semi-automatic pistols are quite similar in
appearance while they all function in the same manner.
Among themselves, the pistols vary in caliber, size, weight,
barrel/barrel bushing configuration, surface finish, and
in the type of metal used for their respective receivers
(steel or stainless steel).
While this manual uses the P13•45 and P14•45 Limited for
its illustrations, the directions also apply to the P12•45,
P16•40, P18•9 both in the Performance Plus and Limited
models, unless otherwise noted.
