I'm 4K deep into my Staccato but to be honest it was worth the wait, I do shoot other handguns really well that are far less expensive but when I saw my son's face and the group he shot with the Staccato that has no price.I bought the 4.25” model and it will be delivered to my FFL Tuesday. I had been wanting a Staccato P until this came out. By the time you add an RMR, light, and extra mags you are well over $3k for the Staccato. This will scratch my 2011 itch for less money.
I was hoping that SA would be a less expensive source of mags but after watching several videos seems like magazine at the moment are not good, so if you have to buy Staccato mags to run the SA it kind defeats the purpose.There was a reason it took Staccato a second to make a 5 inch gun, slide velocities at that point are an issue. Apparently Staccato mags work better than the SA ones too.
Also any pistol that requires a "break in" period should be put in the garbage pile where it belongs.

If it was only 250.00 yeah maybe save up a bit more for the Staccato but even with Mil discount there's still a 500.00 difference right now and that's paying right at MSRP for a Prodigy.By the time you factor in cost of optics plates and the optic itself does $30 a mag price difference really matter that much? To use the age old argument "I could buy almost 4 Glock 19's for that " . But I can't really say much I got my Staccato for a steal , if given the opportunity who would not pay $250 more for a Staccato over a SA.
Dean had mentioned he got a really good deal on his so maybe that was his point of reference.I'm not following the math.
For example, an optic-ready Staccato C2 is 2299 while a Prodigy is 1499. Add in a the cost of a $60 plate for the Prodigy and the difference is $740 - or $791 with tax. Using the Mil discount may bring it down to $500 - but how do you get the difference to $250?

Dean - don't be stingy - tell us where we can buy Staccatos at discount, please! I'm in the buy once/cry once camp, but even with the Hero Program a P DPO would cost me $800 more than the DS (at Springer's IOP price). I'd MUCH rather have the Staccato, but my stingy side has trouble swallowing the price difference.
So who carries these in stock?Honestly I got very lucky , I purchased mine right as the STI / Staccato rebrand was occuring and the guns were just not that popular yet. They had yet to overcome the "expensive race gun that is problematic" reputation. This timeframe was also coincidentally right at the end of the gun "salad days" during the tail end of the Trump Slump in gun sales right before COVID hit. Even the mags were cheaper then at $55 a piece.
Now with demand being through the roof and people paying extra to fast track guns I don't see the "good customer" discount exceeding $200 off MSRP now.

Again Staccato very strictly enforces their MSRP pricing online , go to the gun shop buy a few things and make some friends.
Yes Sir I was in there yesterday to pick up a pistol and saw the StaccatosGun Club usually has some , have not been in a while however. Their Benelli shotguns are too tempting
Yep, was just showing him they were in stock there.Yeah, those are at pretty much MSRP pricing.
