I thought you were blaming me, after all you went in there just after I left with a C2…On the way home from Churchmouse's memorial, I stopped in at Indiana Gun Club. Spent about 40 minutes fondling Staccatos and talking shop with an awesome employee named Gordon. Now my wife is trying to process why I wantandneed a $2500 handgun.
I may have to redact my previous statement about not even considering spending Staccato money. Might have to take a damn hard look in the safe for some stuff that I could live without.
I'm blaming @Dean Crail for this.....
This is now the unofficially official 2011 thread IMHO , not that I am biased.
After shooting my C2 at the FGE you will find something to sell….Sadly, my dreams of getting a Staccato or even a Prodigy are quickly dwindling. Not finding anything in the safe to sell and the gun fund is on backorder, lol.
Did you decide on an optic?After shooting my C2 at the FGE you will find something to sell….
Love to get a Delta Point Pro. Like to find a used one. They are a direct mount without a plate. Just takes a rear sight kit from Staccato for $49.Did you decide on an optic?
Some place I read that the C&H plates sit lower than the Dawson plates from Staccato....but I am just repeating internet speak so verify before purchase.Love to get a Delta Point Pro.

That’s why I like the DPP. No plate needed.Some place I read that the C&H plates sit lower than the Dawson plates from Staccato....but I am just repeating internet speak so verify before purchase.
You need a direct mount with the DPP, the rear of that thing is so tall, rear sights can still barely clear!That’s why I like the DPP. No plate needed.
The C&H plates are legitimately lower than the Dawson's.Some place I read that the C&H plates sit lower than the Dawson plates from Staccato....but I am just repeating internet speak so verify before purchase.
Gordon is a good dude and a friend of mine (bar/pool hangout) and is good friends with Phil the owner. I picked up my TRP from IGC. Their inventory is usually pretty nice. I have drooled over the "high end' case where the WIlsons, LeBear's, etc are kept.On the way home from Churchmouse's memorial, I stopped in at Indiana Gun Club.

The lust is deep today.....
It is a Direct Mount on the Staccato. Dawson makes the rear sight just for the DPP that takes that into account.You need a direct mount with the DPP, the rear of that thing is so tall, rear sights can still barely clear!
I know it's direct mount, i'm saying if it wasn't it'd be even worse since that sight is so ridiculously tall in the back. It does have that big clear window though.It is a Direct Mount on the Staccato. Dawson makes the rear sight just for the DPP that takes that into account.
I totally agree with you.I know it's direct mount, i'm saying if it wasn't it'd be even worse since that sight is so ridiculously tall in the back. It does have that big clear window though.
I gave in to the dark side a couple weeks ago, and went with this foreign low-budget model, just to test the waters with a high-cap 1911. Ordered it on a Thursday at lunchtime, and my FFL called me it was in Friday afternoon. One day, I think from Arizona!
Initial impressions are good, but I havn't shot it yet. Slide to frame fit is tight. Recoil spring feels light, maybe too light. Trigger feels good, reset good, safety feels good. I'm not a fan of the plastic grip module, would prefer aluminum. Grip texture is rather abrasive - might have to do some smoothing there. Trigger needs de-burred - very sharp edges.
I know this thread is about the Prodigy, but there's been plenty of Staccato talk, so I thought I'd post this one up. Hopefully get to shoot it soon. If I like the format, I'll be looking at the blued-steel version of this one with the optic cut, or the Prodigy, or a Staccato.
I didn't clean this up before the pics. It came plenty wet with oil.
