Staccato C2 DUO 1000 Round Review

Full review of the Staccato C2 Duo after more than 1000 rounds over many range sessions, competitions, and many hours conceal carrying this finely crafted pistol.
The Staccato has proven itself for both competitive shooting and range use along with defensive purposes where your life and other's lives depend on it. Staccato pistols are top performers and the C2 has excelled at every task I've applied it to. In this review I tell you about the gun and the company that makes it, I cover all of its features while showing plenty of range footage that demonstrates the Staccato's many strengths.

    Customer service at this company is top notch. Sent my pistol in for a few minor issues, (from what I was experiencing) and they are sending me a new gun. While it was there for repairs, I called them and asked if they could do the RMR cut and they said they were going to replace my firearm with a new one that already had the RMR cut for no extra cost.

    I had a similar, I was able to get a used C2. I had a few concerns, and when I called they offered to take it back and inspect it. When I talked to them, they said the found the DLC applied to the frame was flaking. They went ahead and gave me a brand new one in its place. When you call, you get a person quite quickly. Top notch.

    Just picked up my C2 Duo yesterday and I was so excited I had to get to the range right away and boy howdy does this sucker run and you're a 100 percent right brother, it's a tack driver. I also LOVE that it's got the ability to add an optic, I ordered the plate for the RMRcc last night and I think that will be a really good fit for this pistol. I can confirm the top round in the mag falling out or being forward when you drop the mag, happens every time for the most part. I was a bit disappointed that they did not included plates. I paid 2570 out the door with taxes and fees so some friggin' plates should be in the bag, they used to be with the DPO and that's the one I bought. I sold my Sig MPX to get this pistol because I know it's the pinnacle of carry options and my MPX just sat in my backpack whereas this will get used A LOT.

Wish Staccato took a little more time designing this. To me, that's a major flaw. Beautiful pistol though
