Anyone pick up one of these single stacks? Get to handle one? Pricey but I'm curious. 50. for an 8 round magazine is steep as well. Reviews are all good. Supposed to be wicked accurate.

My LGS has a few of them. They are nice for sure, but I am not as big of a fan of the grip as I thought I would be. I much prefer the tree bark texture on the double stack Staccato P. Trouble is now the P is coming with the C grip style.
If the C feels good to you though, get it. Reviews are pretty good from what I’ve seen.
I have a STI Staccato C its a very fine shooting pistol. It will take the Wilson mags they are cheaper.
I will be swift in my attack. My venom is packed with enough pride and gun powder to take down any adversary that attempts to tread on my freedom. You've been warned, but if you still want to test me, take a step forward.

I looked at the double stack version and I was turned off by how sloppy the thumb safety was. It was so bad I would be surprised if it would stay on SAFE while carried. I noticed the same thing years ago with a single stack STI I looked at. My old Eagle 5.0 is fine, but I'd certainly want to look at one personally before I purchased. I think STIs are otherwise great guns.
In addition to the optic-ready DUO guns, Pierson said they have also made a carry version of the same pistol that was non-optic bearing, by request. “So basically, we took a Staccato P and we put a shorter carry grip on it,” he said.
They also made threaded barrel versions for some agency.
I shot my brother's Staccato P and it's a fine gun.

That’s good to know. When I order my C2 I will definitely order more spare mags and use them in both guns. They’re decently priced through the mil/le program.
