I have to admit , I've always been a traditional 1911 guy , and any variation from the original was blastimy ... Especially one in 9mm ...... But. This Staccato P Duo , has been lurking in the back of my mind like a splinter.... Very intrigued. After the holidays , I think I'm going for it .....

Great review, fun channel.... SUBBED! I did the academy with a Sig P226, then shot matched with it for a year, made my first master card with it. About that time my single stack 1911 in .45ACP showed up. In spite of the increase in recoil, I shot better with it IMMEDATELY. Better than the gun I had used for matches, practice and carry for over a year! I went on to a bunch more 1911 / 2011 guns and I'm still in love. They are the light of Zartha.

Great stuff on the thorough review and I am glad to hear about all the positive feedback on this weapon. I also chose my first double stacked 2011 platform as the Duo P and I am literally waiting for the delivery and looking forward to the hands-on experience.

Great review man, your analysis is well done.

Really appreciate your comments, especially the ease of shooting the staccato well. Thanks.

Thanks for the thorough review. Thinking about one as my next purchase. I'm a CZ and Walther guy. Kinda want to give a 2011 a try as well.

Love the video, good job

Very nice review. I have the standard version. Kinda wish I got the optic version but love the firearm.

Super well done video!

Love mine, only other platforms I enjoy and could compair shootability is 1911, CZ SP01 or Jericho 941. After shooting Glock, Sigs, HKs, CZ, IWI, S&W, Springfield, Colts, the Staccato P with be my keeper and go to along with my ccw carry Springfield Armory 9mm Officer 1911.

The thing to watch on a lot of the less expensive options are MIM parts and lack of hand fitting. I've yet to see one of the more affordable options that hasn't had one of those two things. The trigger isn't hard to change on these I've done 4 now and can knock em out in about 2 hours each. Hardest part is getting the safeties off and figuring out where to shave on the trigger bar. Thanks for the feedback, hopefully one of these companies can figure out to bring the cost down. It's not impossible, but it'll eat in to their margins.

Very cool

The XC is a beast. I have the 2020 P DUO and the XC and the XC makes the P DUO feel like a Glock. Haha. It’s definitely my range toy though as the trigger pulls less than 2 lbs. pick up the chwps plate for your PDUO and that rmr will sit super low in the slide. Deep enough it looks milled even with a plate and cowitness perfectly with the new Dawson .190 fiber sight. Also which safariland is that?

I feel your pain (literally) on the beaver tail. I have the P and the C2 and they are punishing if I don’t get my grip just right when shooting. If I really bear down on my grip, it definitely feels better than when I don’t. Usually feel a little tender at the base of my left thumb (lefty shooter) for a day or two after shooting.

Staccato offers a steel frame or aluminum frame which one is better

This might sound dickish, but shooting and dry firing the gun more will build up the snakebite callus on the web of your thumb. You should really check out the grip service that Extreme Shooters does to reduce and improve the texture on it. Did it to my Staccato P and it's an incredible difference. I have about 4000 rounds through mine and love it. I seriously feel like I'm cheating at the range when I shoot it. Such an incredible pistol.

Wasn't an option when I ordered. I like the contrast but if the DLC gives me extra barrel life, count me in.

My duty firearm is Glock 17 Gen 5 MOS with RMR & X300U setup. I never shot it well enough to my liking and was never a fan of them. On the other hand, I shot well with Sig. But in the academy they told us these are easy to use and accessories are easy to get and pretty much a brick. So most of the class bought these. I also carry it off-duty EDC OWB holster with no issues. I am thinking about purchasing a Staccato C2 for duty since it will be easy to carry off-duty as well. But I am keep coming back to P and am confused which one to pick. I don't like the magwell thickness in the new P version. I wish some of the local ranges had these in stock to shoot before I can order it.

The magwell should be removable you just need a shorter pin for it. If your in Florida I'd be happy to host you in the central Florida area. I'm a bigger guy so don't have issues concealing a bigger gun but I get it. The staccato is like cheating, if I couldn't use it I'd go M&P 2.0 with apex trigger and barrel. It comes close but still no staccato with the recoil impulse. The P will be softer shooting than the c2 but I'm splitting hairs here. Up to you though, pros and cons to everything. I will say, you will notice the weight difference carrying it over the glock but if you don't walk many miles then it's really not an issue.

I think I can see where you interpreted me stating the XC dips. Let me add additional context to clarify my position. What I was referring to was the legacy STI pistols ive shot that were 5 inch and ive also experienced the same on Glock34s. This was not a dig at the xc in anyway, as I mentioned, I've never shot it. To further clarify, I wouldn't apply that same logic to the xc because it's not technically the same as a traditional 5 inch slide. The slide is a 4. Something plus a non reciprocating comp to equal 5 inches overall. To summarize, the more reciprocating mass the more spring you need to send that mass forward which usually results in that dip. Again, I don't hold this logic to the xc because i don't consider that a traditional 5 inch gun, just like my roland special doesn't track that way either but a 34 does, they are the same length overall, but they're different.
