Everyday carry (EDC) pistols demand a balance of concealability, controllability, and capacity. For shooters who prioritize speed and precision without sacrificing magazine count, a purpose-built compact semi-automatic can be the deciding factor between a confident carry setup and compromise.

STACCATO CS delivers an ultra-compact package built on Staccato’s 2011 lineage. Precision engineered for maximum performance, the Staccato is the pistol of choice where speed, reliability and accuracy matter. Combining the venerable 1911 platform with the double-stacked capacity of modern pistol designs, this model brings full-size handling to a compact footprint. Shop this product

Design and handling

The STACCATO CS pairs an aluminum frame with a slim, ultra-compact slide to minimize weight while preserving a solid grip and recoil management. Its 2011 platform architecture gives users a double-stacked capacity and improved ergonomics over single-stack 1911s, making follow-up shots faster and muzzle rise more manageable in the compact class.

Sights, trigger, and optics

Factory-equipped with full-size fiber optic sights, the CS improves sight acquisition in varied light conditions — an advantage for rapid target alignment. The flat-faced aluminum trigger offers a clean, consistent break that many competitors and tactical professionals prefer for precise shot control. The slide is optic-ready and accepts Dawson Precision adapter plates, allowing quick mounting of miniature red dots for enhanced speed and sight picture customization.

Capacity and carry

Despite its compact dimensions, the STACCATO CS comes with two 16-round magazines, giving EDC users substantial capacity without resorting to a full-size pistol. That blend of concealability and capacity is the tactical edge many responsible carriers seek. Price is set at $2626.99, reflecting the machining, materials, and performance-oriented features built into the platform. View product details and pricing

Accessories and setup

Optic-ready slides and compatibility with Dawson Precision plates open a broad range of sight choices. Consider matching holsters and magazine carriers designed for 2011 footprints to maximize concealment and retention. Verify caliber options on the product page before purchase, as specific chamberings and local regulations may influence selection.

For those who demand compact concealability without sacrificing handling and magazine capacity, the STACCATO CS is a standout option. Check current availability and reserve your unit through the shop page where purchase details and retailer checkout are provided. Check availability
