I would expect them to be compatible too if they use the same tooling to make the Para Ords. It only makes sense that they do, though. I highly doubt Remington would have the funds to come up with a new double stack 1911 for mass production.
I didn't know Remington and Para Ord are part of the same group. That's interesting. This makes a whole lot more sense now.

Re: Remington - new double stack 1911
I love my double stack 1911s. Yeah, they're heavy at 57 oz loaded. Yes they're stupidly thick. I don't care that only Mec Gar makes mags for it. I just love 'em. I'm curious how the Remington version is going to hold up. I think a visit to a LGS is in order after release.
I don't see this really helping them get themselves out of bankruptcy, though. Double stacks aren't exactly in high demand. Both Springfield and Wilson have tried their hand in the past without much success. On the bright side, Remington isn't exactly in a crowded corner. Outside of competition guns, only RIA and Para Ord make double stack 1911s. So there's that.
