I certainly learned a lot about my 1911 from this video. Thank you for putting it together.

Hi, will your slide stop fit a Dan Wesson Gaurdian 45acp commander without any fitting? Please let me know, thank you, al

My staccato has a 15 round mag but they made an indention in it which makes it only hold 10.

Thank you sir, really enjoy and appreciate your content, objective, deliberate and comprehensive evaluations and professional editing. I’ve seen your other DW reviews and similar outcomes particularly concerning the barrel feedramp issues. Not knowing what you paid for the gun ( it appears you don’t do loaner guns), I’ve always considered DW belonging to an affordable “custom “ genre, and as such I’m surprised you’ve had so many functional problems. Common production ( MIM) 1911s, from$500-2000 range are now consistently reliable. Just leaves me scratching my head that DW went off the beaten path with the integrated barrel feedramp. I can only think it’s to cut costs. “Custom”, higher dollar, should guarantee reliability at least on par with production guns.

Just curious what gloves are you wearing during this video? Thanks

Here is my experience with the PMM comp for my Glock 45, this is verbatim what I wrote to customer service. First installation used the supplied red locktite, had to use one of all three shims in order to time it correctly. Waited 24 hours, went shooting with 2 other pistols and rotated firing the, so all guns cooled during shooting. Comp came out of time after 4 mags, second attempt, luckily I bought the extra shim kit, followed instruction to the T but used rockset this time, and again the comp came out of time, tried it once more with supplied locktit and it came out of time, there is no magic whatsoever in the installation and I really wanted to love this product, PMM just asked a bunch of questions that I answered if they would have referred to the very first email, then they wanted me to send the whole slide to them for god know how long, I eventually fixed the problem, I installed the radian afterburner like I should have from the beginning. The afterburner is a far superior product and is bomb proof. Take it far what it’s worth, this was my experience.

Im confused are full length guide rods good or bad?

Great overview. Appreciate the level-headed assessment.

Undeniable logic

Not optic cutting it was crazy, Most were waiting for it and they fell short but I also hope they do a full size optic cut not a compact optic cut like the new sig 1911

Cool 😎

Good content. I like your channel. Does the Springfield operator have any MIM parts in it?

Just a quick follow up: what did you settle on? Did you stick with the 9 lb spring or go to 10 lbs? I'm going to pick up a XC and am trying to avoid beating the snot out of the frame with the factory 7 lb spring, so I was thinking 10 lbs vs 9 lbs. My buddy recommended 12 lbs, a la the P, but that seems to be overkill based on this video. Much appreciated

Wish it had an industry standard “slim” footprint (RMSc/RMRcc/Holosun-K) instead of a plate system. Otherwise the specialist is my favorite 1911 under $3K Now when is the optic ready 10mm coming out?!🔫

You put Chinese junk Holosun on a premium USA made 1911.......makes no sense to me👀

The staccato c that you did the review on is this the compact or the one with the longer grip? And due you prefer this one better then you’re staccato p model?

Thank you for such n outstanding and detailed review. I ordered my TRP yesterday. You can be sure I will emulate your testing protocol to put my TRP through its paces and make it my carry pistol. Thanks again Hilton. Keep the videos coming. Your experience and your disposition to teach from it are very commendable. I will listen intently and pass it on in my classes. Marcos

Will these also fit mbx mags?

I want a version like my XC but with a carry magwell and 80 series drop safe trigger and pinned grip safety

Can we see a comparison in split times etc between a G19 and the Staccato C? Im curious what we get for the difference in price.

I have over 1200 rounds through my 4.25” and I stopped having malfunctions after about 300 rounds of Hot Load Ammunition and constantly cleaning the firearm…after I got to 700 rounds I did….Triarc Extended Slide Stop, Wilson Combat BP Single Side safety, Wilson Combat BP Disconnector, Wilson Combat BP Extractor, Wilson Combat Firing Pin Stop, EGW Extended Firing Pin, Extra power Firing Pin Spring, EGW Keyed Reverse Plug (.332), EGW Tungsten Guide Rod, 8 LB Recoil Spring, 17LB Mainspring, Atlas Match Ignition, Red Dirt Solid Flat F2 Trigger, 10-8 Magazine Catch, and then last but not least I filed in a Disconnector Ramp (Marvel Cut) into the slide/polished it….now it’s as smooth as butter and the lock up is just as good as my buddys Atlas and that’s saying a lot for this platform that’s being fully upgraded that is….

I must have got lucky and got mine made on a Wednesday. Slide stop functions and so far no issues with the safety or magwell. I did your function tests and extractor tests and it passed no issues with Gold Dot, HST and WC Barnes TacXP's. Only have 400 rounds in it so far though but it's been great. I do however have a 10mm 2023 Specialist that has all those issues that took a lot of TLC to fix it.

What is your opinion on 10mm 1911’s?

That “flush fit” magazine doesnt seem very flush fit. I get making it slimmer, but it seems longer for the same capacity. Will need to see side by sides to see if it is worth it to switch out my current C2. Also, could they have made that naming convention more confusing?? Just call it something different- I mean, there are 23 other letters in the alphabet they could have used LOL!

Thanks, very helpful video.

My set of used p220 mags on their at from eBay!!! Now u have me worried 😂 well I can send em back if they don’t work properly. I got 10 rd blued i should probably got 8 rd stainless for only 10$ more

Good info

Cool video 😎👍

Cool info 👍

✔️✅️

Great video, when and where will I be able to obtain the performance 10-8 armorers block. Been looking everywhere for one to no avail, I need one badly . Please help!!!! Thank you

Has anyone made a video comparing the C and the C2? Would be nice to see them discussed and compared. Especially for those who have the C2 currently and are thinking of buying the C.

Thoughts on lack of drop safety

Great review. Appreciate the no-BS content.

I have been on the fence on which model to get. I think this is it.

First time I've seen your videos. Great quality and content!

Wish I could afford a Staccato 😢

That thing was snapping like hell

Seems oversprung

Have you shot the C against the P?

I've never done a slow feed test but good idea. I can only see my Ruger 57 having an issue lol

“Not released at the time of filming” flex 😂

I'll be getting one of these as well. How long is the full size vs this compact grip? Say is the compact G19 length or longer? That's what I can't really decide on.

is the trigger reach shorter compare to the c2 ?

I am surprised you described the CS as so tiring to shoot?

I just wish that Staccato still made their P model in 45 ACP.

I really like your review format, subscribed.

When they first announced this they said it was going to be 16 or 18 mag sizes. Have you heard as to why they dropped in size. Was it unreliable? My cs hasn’t had problems with the 16 rounders

Solid! I probably won’t be getting one, but I appreciate your insight on this.
