With the success of the kits, Para-Ordnance began manufacturing complete M1911 pistols of its own in 1990. [1] In 1999, the double-action-only LDA modification, was introduced. [1] The P14-45 (later 14.45) is the standard model, and as its name hints, it is chambered in .45 ACP and has a magazine capacity of 14.
Para-Ordnance was the originator of a high capacity magazine M1911-style pistol. Para-Ordnance was also the manufacturer of the first double-action-only 1911-style pistol. The company has created a true double-stack 1911 pistol, in addition to single- and double-stack pistols in .45 ACP, .40 S&W, 9 mm Parabellum, and .38 Super calibers.
RIA (Rock Island Armory) 1911s are derivatives of the US Military G.I. M1911-A1, the standard issue US Service pistol from 1911 to 1985. [3] Most RIA models are targeted at the low-end price point of the 1911 pistol market and are basic entry-level MIL-SPEC versions of the 1911. [4] However, some models offer additional higher-end features.

The A-10 engines were initially susceptible to flameout when subjected to gases generated in the firing of the gun. When the GAU-8 is being fired, the smoke from the gun can make the engines stop, and this did occur during initial flight testing. [4] Gun exhaust is essentially oxygen-free, and is capable of causing flameouts of gas turbines ...
Many A-10s also had a false canopy painted in dark gray on the underside of the aircraft, just behind the gun. This form of automimicry is an attempt to confuse the enemy as to aircraft attitude and maneuver direction. [87] [88] Many A-10s feature nose art, such as shark mouth or warthog head features.

A dual pistol mount and stock was also developed that converted two M1912/P16s into a (double pistol) submachine gun such weapon known as the Doppelpistole M1912. A wooden carrying case, similar to that issued with the Villar Perosa, was also made for the Doppelpistole, the idea seems to have been experimental and never came into wide issue.
