Staccato new release 2026

SL66

Professional
Got an email from Staccato saying they will have a new release to be revealed at the range day on January 19 as well as Shot Show 2026.
Did not say what it will be, but from the looks of it I would guess HD P4.0 with island comp like the one on the XC. I arrived at that by the location of front sight compared to muzzle end (comped) and the number of Pic rail slots (4.0).
Thoughts or opinions?

I bought a new Staccato C 2024 on 25 Sep 25.

Then this, posted on Staccato’s site shortly thereafter - “Please note: We will discontinue the Staccato C starting Nov 21, 2025, to focus on future innovation. Limited inventory remains — available while supplies last.”

Fortunately, I am the type that gets the number of magazines I want quickly after acquiring a firearm and I was able to find a source for replacement recoil springs (didn’t seem to be sold by Staccato).

I can see absolutely nothing a comp would do for me in the “C”, so not sure what it would help in an HD 4” barrel gun…but I’m sure some will.

I have been eyeing an HD C 3.6, but just can’t quite seem to follow through. I’ve already acquired 8 additional magazines (my initial thoughts were the.preferred package, which comes with 3 magazines, so 11 total, 10 for range (150 preload for range) and one for EDC that remains loaded). I’ve also acquired the HOST plate for a Trijicon RMR HD (which I have on the C and intend to replace with a different optic), and a holster from TTGunleather is about halfway done). Not a lot invested, but a few hundred dollars. And I just can’t quite get past how fast they dropped the C and CS.

I am hoping during/after SHOT 2026 they (Staccato) will somehow indicate their intention to keep supporting the HDs, including the 3.6, for more than a couple of years.

As far as a compensator, I would rather add one as needed, not have one permanently affixed. Not to mention the threaded barrel I would use for that use case also allows for a suppressor if I’d want one. But as I said above, some folks will like it, and I don’t fault them for their preferences.
 
I have a Staccato C that was a good chunk of change. It’s a nice gun, but not really Wilson EDCX9 or other similar guns nice (I’m sure others make guns equivalent to Wilsons X9s, but I’m not aware of them). And adding a barrel comp to any of them is not worth $1,000 “to me”. At $3,499 for the lowest version of this new Staccato model and then going up (and we know unless you qualify for the HEROES program, they are always MSRP), I will spend my gun dollars on other things.

Heck, even with my HEROES discount, it would still be $3408.90 after tax. At least it looks like they include the $70 compact magwell.

I’ve been saving for the HD C3.6 and amassing parts for it - magazines, HOST plate, holster, with the plan of picking one up sometime this year. I hope they don’t raise the price to make this new one’s price palatable. Currently $2502.84 after discount, tax and with the compact magwell (whenever it’s back in stock).

BUT…I think I’m 99.99% leaning to next gun being a rifle, so future Staccato’s will have to wait 😃.
 
Always remember a 1911 platform is just that. The “basics” are then built upon. The difference between a $500 1911 and a $3500 1911 are fit/ finish and higher quality internals (and achieving that level of fit/finish require time, which equals $$$. Good friend is a gunsmith. He got an old, badly worn Norinco, played with it in his spare time and using quality guts and I’ll dare say it will shoot with Anybody’s 1911. (He left the exterior basically alone with the exception of sights), so here is this kinda ratty looking 1911 with a poor looking and worn finish that shoots like a house afire👍. When you buy a high end 1911 you’re paying for the man hours that went into it.

I get all that, but are you thinking Staccato is going to spend more time to fit the C4X better than the P4 or HD3.6 to justify the much higher consumer cost? I’m thinking they will produce it in quantities like they do all their models.
