Chances are, if you've done your research, that you've narrowed it down to a Staccato 2011 or a Bul Armory SAS II Tac for a reliable self defense, home defense, duty, or EDC. When it comes to double stack 1911 or 2011 style pistols, these two are the best for the price. If you want the most reliable, durable, accurate, 2011 available... these are the best handguns in the category for the price. The Springfield Prodigy, Tisas MAC, Girsan, Rock Island Armory and possibly even the Kimber KDS9c don't have the reliability tack record that Bul and Staccato have. Offerings like Atlas Gunworks, Cabot, Nighthawk, Alchemy, and Infinity can just be too expensive for an "every day" kind of gun. This video compare the Bul Armory versus the Staccato so you can decide which one is the best for you. I will also go over any problems, issues, or malfunctions I may have had with the USA made Staccato semi-auto pistol or the Israel Israeli made weapon. Enjoy this in-depth comparison video from Nightwood Guns!
For my RUclips manual reviewer: I am a certified instructor and range safety officer. This was safely filmed at a private range. This is an unmodified semi-automatic pistol in its factory configuration handled by a professional. For the love of god I'm following your rules. There is no content in here that disqualifies the video as being safe for all advertisers and you know it.

I just recently purchased my first Bul. For the money, I am now and enormous fan of Bull Armory!!
Once you get a Bul, it’s hard to not want more 😂👍
@@NightwoodGuns How did you purchase it, did you have to just catch one when it was actually in stock? I’ve been trying to get one but they’re never in stock.
Owed a Bul for 3 years not one problem ever
People put on "Chinese sights" because there's actual innovation. Eotech and trijicon has came out with nothing new in decades.
Yep, just some light teasing. Holosun is so far ahead innovation-wise that they are running a solo race 😂
How many decades?
@@NightwoodGunsyeah i chuckled at that. I chose a 507C for my Staccato P cause the window and reticle and other innovations
Bought the XC, decided to go Trijicon cause its American. Funny though, it has less features but i still like it more 😂
Thanks for the video; your final conclusion is correct yes for both!
Sage dynamics does a lot of drop testing and tracks info from LEOs. I use Holosun for range use but I'd encourage checking his PDFs for your primary option. The RMR doesn't change for a reason
As someone who owns a Staccato XS a Staccato CS and a Bul Armory UL SASII, I can honestly say that this is the best comparison I have seen regarding these two manufacturers. All of your points are right on. Both are great guns however; my SAS had a better trigger out of the box and a much better, more easily deactivated grip safety. I had to have Staccato retune the grip safety on my CS as I was not able to reliably activate it unless my grip was either PERFECT, or really bad. Staccato retuned it and it now is fine. You are also absolutely correct regarding the sharp points on the SAS, after the first 250 rounds a sharp edge on the grip provided a good deal of discomfort. Overall. I am glad I have guns from both manufacturers.
Nice, thanks for sharing! Good to know that someone else who owns both had the same experiences 👍
Good to see reviews from what appears to be a everyday guy not wearing combat gear and straight to the facts without any perceived loyalty to a brand. Honest stuff
That’s exactly what this channel is about. I’m glad it’s translating well 👍
The most detailed comparison I’ve seen. Not even Humble Marksman went into so much detail with the beaver tail and trigger-feel.
Glad you enjoyed the vid 😎👍
Top notch stuff as always, man. Appreciate the attention to finer details like the grip safety tuning, not something everyone would notice.
I’m glad you enjoyed, man! 😎👍
The content here is well thought out and executed.
Frankly all weapons are effective with the right user with actual combat experience. They just adapt to what they have in the field at any given moment. Most here are just deer in headlights when it comes to it and are blowing smoke. As usual, a lot of people who haven’t done it, have a lot to say.
The rest I just give to marketing and the nature of conspicuous consumption - Dr. Alan Greenspan.
I agree with both comments.
Well said 👍
Great video, as a guys that has both, Mt vote is Staccato all day
If I could only have one 2011, it would be the XC no question 👍
Remarkably detailed and critical unbiased review. So many other gun youtubers play neutral and don't take any sides and don't criticize likely because they are shills.
Yep, 100% 😂 I’m glad you enjoyed 👍
“MIM is bad” - if you’ve shot a Glock, you’ve used MIM parts. If you’ve shot a polymer-framed Sig, you’ve used MIM parts. If you’ve used Magpul’s steel iron sights, you’ve used MIM parts. MIM is the next step up over investment casting and is totally fine for most parts.
Agreed. The HK USP is mostly MIM parts for goodness sake 😂
I run a Holosun 508T x2 Titanium with the green dot on my bul Armory SAS ll TAC 4.25 and I love it...!
Very nice! 😎🙌
I love this channel. Just bought a Tisas BD9 DS Duty. Got there magwell which is a nice steel, got talons grip tape cut for the prodigy and it fit perfectly. Got a 407k and Holosun PID light on it. Put 600 rounds through it and not one malfunction. Went right into my carry bag.
I went back and forth on these 2 guns and the staccato won out. Bul Armory does use MIM parts where staccato doesn't and the availability of bul armory is terrible. Staccato has outstanding customer service and bul armory is very difficult to get a hold of.
Fair enough 😎👍
Here in CZ the Staccato P is closer to $6k while the Bul Tac coming in at $5k. Effing madness. I really like the idea to own them, but I'd be a fool to pay those prices, especially when you can get CZ S2C for about $1.8k.
@@wezzla I agree 💯
The Bul magazines aren’t proprietary to Bul, they are the Para pattern mags that are the same as Rock Island uses making them very plentiful and cheap
Do they lock in? I was under the impression it was the same/similar magazine body but the hole pattern was different. I could absolutely be wrong, though.
But remember that Bul mags are $55 V.S. $100+ for Staccato.
You are incorrect. Bul does not fit in TAC Ultra FS HC 9MM 17rd, and RIA doesn't fit in UR-F. Just tried it.
@@yuriynycyou can get staccato 20 round magazines for $69.99. $15 difference in prices is negligible.
@m4rvinmartian mine did and slide does lock open after last shot
Amen to your last part about Stacatto and fit and finish. I'm overall happy with my Bul but I've got Goon tape over a big offset from frame to grip module. It's a palm grater
Man bro, this video is so good. Truly enjoy your vids.
Glad you enjoyed the vid, man! 🙌
Great video
Basically answered all my questions as I have a Bul now and considering a Staccato
😎👍
The comedy in this video was on point. Well done and a great comparison.
Haha! I’m glad you enjoyed! I was wondering if anybody even noticed…
Subtle yet effective lol. You may have just got tens of thousands with that circle😄
@@yamyzf2002r1 My junior-high past self would be so proud 🤣👍
🤣
Good review but I think you were a little too nice about MIM parts in this platform. MIM + 1 year warranty tells me all I need to know about what I would be spending.
Wow nice call out. I didn’t know they only offered 1 year. That’s pretty terrible.
I like the new TRP lineup just dropped but they also went pretty MIM heavy too.
A quality firearm really only needs a one year warranty. I personally believe if a company has great quality control, that's all you need. If it doesn't break in the first year, it never will. A lifetime warranty tells me there may be problems down the road, possibly. Just saying
@@Lewismotorsports that’s a cope. If that were true then the company should have no worries about slapping a life time warranty tag on it bc they would have nothing to worry about with that logic.
@@ncgearguy05this is the way
Nothing is wrong with Holosun. They are badass, combat proven optics.
507 Comp is my favorite pistol optic. I’m just teasing.
Oh yeah, I thought the "star" on the Staccato looked familiar; indeed it's the Lone Star. TY
Maybe someday I’ll own a Stacatto, or an older STI, they just seem like a really good addition to any collection.
Absolutely 👍
Two things to point out MIM does produced with plastic infused metal and it shrinks 16% all around through two separate process, much harder to control the quality. DLC is a form of PVD and the functionality only begin to excel with certain thickness, 2 micron plus. Finally, I do agree with you that both gun are well worth the money.
Great points, thanks for clarifying 👍
Properly manufactured MIM parts are stronger than their milled and forged counterparts due to the ability to optimally orient crystalline grain structure within the material.
The one other thing to consider with Bul Armory is for $2,250 you can get a Tac Pro with a ported barrel that is more comparable to the XC than the P for more than $2,000 less than the XC and even several hunder less than an otherwise comparably spec'd P, between a Tac Pro and a P at the price the Bul Armory is the clear winner IMO.
Interesting point. I have one of the new 5” Tac Pros on the way so I can actually see how it compares to the XC 👍
I have the bul 3.25 great gun
They make great pistols 👍
Excellent review of two excellent 2011's.
😎👍
Yeah, I see what you did there at 2:00.
LOL.
@@GratitudeAndProsperity 😅👍
Dang it, you got me at 1:58, good thing you're not sitting in my living room with me to hit me...
😂👍
To be fair Trijicon is only assembled in the U.S. but has Chinese parts. No matter what you’re buying you’re still supporting China and they make great things too.
I only run Trijicon and AimPoint optics because I like to get my emotional needs met by making fun of those who don’t.❤🎉
Exactly! Finally someone else gets it! 🙌🤣
@@NightwoodGuns ha! Love it! 💯❤️
Would love your views one the platypus compared to these (I’m sure I’m not the only one)
No you aren't! Want to see the platypus and oracle 2311..... Those have been strangely quite.
Here is a view.
Platypus is no better than a RIA Armscor DS TAC FS.
They are basically the same thing. But Platypus costs a lot more.
If you want a "STI/2011", the Platypus is NOT. It is a Double-Stack, ONE-PIECE frame.
The Springfield Prodigy would be the level of Platypus, but in a "2011" two-piece frame.
I definitely want to get a Platypus and an Oracle 2311 for the channel. 👍 Part of me has been waiting for them to iron their stuff out before I invest. I saw that they just introduced a bull barrel and better texture for the Platy. So the time may be near…
The Holosun on the 2011 comment is hilarious and true
😂👍
My CPL will be coming in the mail soon so I started testing EDC firearms at the range. Made the mistake of trying a CS and a C2… I’m about $5K poorer now because I couldn’t just get one!
For context, I fired a total of 800 rounds across:
Walther PDP (favorite non 1911/2011)
Shield Plus
P365XL
Glock 43X
G19
MR920
Prodigy
Learned that I shoot far better with a 2011 as well!
Excellent review!
😎👍
So WRT the grip safety travel issue, the travel required on my XC matches your assessment-it does appear to require half-again as much travel as the BUL you demonstrated. Does it matter? Very probably not, from my POV. Reasonable people can of course disagree. I did some one-hand dry-fire testing with my weapon, with my M-L right hand, and found that gripping in a variety of ways that still allowed my index finger to reach the trigger, however loosely, the trigger was able to fire the gun. In order to loosen to the point of grip safety engagement, I had to find the worst possible purchase on the gun, to the point where the gun was just short falling out of my hand. In a struggle, or lying on the ground, I would deem any such grip combat-ineffective, and I would probably lose the gun on recoil if I did get a shot off. No way I’d be able to aim safely and effectively. Bottom line, my opinion is that there is no effective grip position on either gun that would not include grip safety disengagement. But if it wows you in the store, by all means do what makes you happy.
I agree with you 👍 Some people just enjoy seeing the differences in the details.
have an XC, I had a PHeritage and sold it as it wasn't worth the extra $1000 over a used P DPO.. have a UL and it's amazing. Ended up Vporting via DSC Gunworks and it's amazing. Staccato as discussed feels like a better build for the extra $1000 over where I got the UL used for.
I've been on the 4.25 Pro list for 6 months now.. waiting but about to break. Bul is shooting itself in the foot by not ramping US production, in the US. They need to move US production to Texas or FLA.
I am a I BUY USA.. but Bul / Israel is the only time I break that and it's not for religious reasons, as I'm not a member of tribe, it's for I SUPPORT ISRAEL (beacon of light) purposes and for the quality guns they produce, including IWI/ IMI etc.
lately they got more stuff on their site plus many guns are available for purchace. I just recently got Bil Armoty SAS II AIR. amazing gun
Very nice! And yeah, I feel ya on Bul. I’m actually suspecting that they are working on new models with how long it’s been since the last drop. 🤔
Subscribed because of the list. Accidental Freddy Krueger 😅
I appreciated your comments on the warranties of the guns. I am shopping for my first 1911 pistol and I really like some of the offerings from Bul Armory. However, the 1-year warranty vs. the lifetime warranty available from competitors such as Springfield Armory and Kimber just doesn't inspire confidence.
Bul Armory is definitely a better gun than Kimber or Springfield, but I completely understand your feelings on the warranty situation 👍
HEY! #1, I bought the Holosun because it has a green reticle and solar fail-safe backup. How many American-made optics have green reticle and solar fail-safe backup? Huh? If you know any, you be sure to give me the link!
#2. I just got the Live Free Armory Apollo 11. American made! You should check that one out. I don't see anything on it is made of MIM, and the grip is 3D printed. I got the FDE, and I want to run back to the store to buy the Black color version, too. Yeah, I like it that much. But I am doing my very best to fight the urge to buy another one just for a different color, and holding out for their 4.25". I was told they would release that after the Shot Show.
Good video; I enjoyed your comparison.
Green reticle and shake awake!
@@jaydub308 Yeah! Green reticle, solar fail-safe backup, and shake awake! and affordable too. Top that ! Kind of sad to say that, though.
@@AllenTam I've bought EPS and EPS carry and 2 AEMS. I like the other optics but the reality is now with technology you don't have to break the bank to have an operator level optic.
@@jaydub308 Yeah, I think the American Made are just selling their name brand.
@@AllenTam yeah eotech has some government contract hence the over priced because they can't sell to the government full price
Ive been a marble installer for 30 years....i definitely dont have sissy hands. In fact, My hands have more hot spots than that gun , Im sure of it, lol. Im getting that BULL Armory. It just seems like a man's man kind of gun. A gun's gun if you will, haha
A guns gun. Brilliant 😂
😂👍
I point to either of these guns when people say a stock Glock beats any 1911. Lol
Fair enough 😅👍
I have medium size hands and when shooting a Staccato my right thumb knuckle near the web of my shooting hand gets irritated from the beaver tail and recoil when riding the safety. This seams to be an issue for me when holding other 2011 style pistols. Would this likely be the same issue with the Bul or is the grip smaller? I just may not be a good candidate for a 2011 style pistol due to my size hand, your recommendation and feedback is always appreciated.
Assuming you’ve tried adjusting your hand to find a sweet spot… it would be the same with Bul. You probably need a Staccato CS or the new Staccato C. That would most likely be the best way for you to comfortably run a 2011 due to the smaller circumference grips 👍
I was just really interested in the Bul Sas Tac 4.25 Pro
BUL will be oos for a while.
PS. SA Platypus is super reliable.
Also Holosun making the 507 Comp kinda really put a hurting on the USA manufacturers. There's a reason that I see guys who have ridiculously expensive cars using Holosun.
Imo, holosun is generally is putting a hurt on US manufacturers and the optic market
Yep, some people took my joke a little too hard in the comments. Holosun is dismantling the red dot industry and making it their own. It’s hard to compete with China! 😂
“Soft-handed accountant with money to burn”
That was a surgical strike to my soul 😂
🤣 *emotional damage*
I had a really bad experience dealing with Bul Arm customer service vs Red carpet care with Staccato. I had to send a video of my bul arm SAS UL not functioning for them to do something. The slide is getting milled now because the studs will break off into the gun.
That's a shame. I work with them a lot and haven't had issues. Do you know who you were emailing with?
Yikes… As you said, Staccato has legendary customer service. When I had the magazine issue, I got a personal phone call from a gunsmith at Staccato. It was crazy. Definitely a lifetime customer after that!
I’ve had bad customer experience with bul also, TAC II slide was catching on the barrel and had to send a video, lots of phone tag, long response time from emails, no real updates of the work being done. 6 weeks to get the gun back
@@JeffGoat213 6 weeks is normal turnaround. Springfield is taking that long with Prodigy's... and they are in the U.S. and aren't a small family company.
The rest of the back and forth should not have happened though.
Both great pistols and would be happy with either. However, Staccato is my dream pistol and that xc🙌
😎👍
Can't comment on Staccato but I do have a cpl Bul armory 1911 and no problem or complaints for the price
Very nice 👍
Sonny Boy, your great-uncle Sydney called and asked me to ask you how on earth you were able to get your Bul Armory SASII? Uncle Sydney has been unable to make the purchase. Of course Uncle Sydney admits that it’s probably because the Warden frowms on firearms at the prison. Well, anyway, Uncle Syd says hello, and ask that you write soon. And send some cigarettes……
🤣🤣🤣 Obtaining a Bul Armory requires much patience. Uncle Sydney is gonna have to find some more cigarettes in prison to pass the time!
@@NightwoodGuns Well, he was hoping for a parole, but that little dust up with the Deputy Warden put the kibosh on that hope.
@@surfingonmars8979 😂😢
Great video.
Any thoughts on why the XC's grip safety tuning is inferior to the Bul which costs less than half? You think it's because Staccato doesn't care and can get away with it simply because they can? Since they've marketed their brand so well and are able to charge what they want? Is it a shame on Staccato or is Staccato fine/average in this gunsmithing aspect and Bul simply has gone above and beyond?
Also, I read an article from Massad Ayoob talking about series 70 1911s not being drop safe when the gun is dropped muzzle-down (as you already know and also from the Stoeger XC drop video) but he also says discharges "may also occur if the pistol is dropped on the rear of its slide or receiver, the spur of its hammer, etc." Any idea how this could happen, technically speaking? Is the firing pin somehow rebounding off its tail end and able to still travel far enough to hit the primer? Have you ever heard of this? I think something like this may have happened with a dropped CZ and it ended up killing a USPSA range officer.
I have a BUL SAS II UL and my buddy has a Staccato XC. Both are fantastic guns and I love my BUL, but will concede that I've never felt a slide as frictionless as when I first tried that Staccato. My only issue I have with my SAS II is that I wish BUL had gone with the same aggressive gripping on the UL as they did on the TAC. Would make more sense to put more grip on the compact EDC pistol as opposed to the full size.
Agreed 100% 👍
New model coming out fixes that issue, and I'm sure they'll offer the grip module in the future
I have the CS and the SAS ll. Both are incredible. Save your money and purchase these quality pistol’s. Forget the so called budget friendly ones.
Agreed 100% 👍 Buy once, cry once
Still waiting for the Bul to be back in stock on their website. Seen a lot of videos about them, but have never been able to find one, on their site or otherwise.
I’m hoping they’ll restock shortly after SHOT Show. I’m also hoping they’ve been holding off because they are making revisions/upgrades.
I was about to purchase a bull armor tac and added to my cart. When i called a gunstore I always deal with for ffl for the info, they asked me the kind of gun i am buying?They told me to save money and buy the staccato. Their gunsmith mentioned, too many issues with bull armory. It was later confirmed by another gunsmith I spoke to and also recommended to buy a staccato vs bull armory because of reliability issues they experienced. I already own 2 staccatos and not 1 failure with over 10k rounds. Just my 2 cents, buy once, cry once.
Nothing wrong with that. I can only speak to my own experiences. I’ve only ever owned and shot the Bul TAC and I’m over 2k rounds with no issues. I currently own 2 Staccatos and only ever had the one mag issue over 8k rounds between the two. You definitely can’t go wrong with Staccato. Especially with the lifetime warranty and excellent customer service.
Yeah really tempted to buy the tac 5, the ported one. BTW really liked the videos! Awesome job, keep up the good work! I already subscribed.
Staccato doesn’t have a transferable warranty. I bought a never shot P limited from my gun range and found that out after purchase. I probably won’t need it but still not cool
Your face on the pic at the beginning so good
😂👍
I have the Bul Axe C Hatchet……I like the Bul products. My Glock friends are always wanting to shoot it. Lol
Very nice 😎👍
I currently have a Bul SAS TAC 4.25 and I want to remove the Magwell for EDC what size pin do I need to order, also can I DIY and skip the Gun Smith!!
It’s a somewhat easy DIY 👍 The correct pin is on Bul’s website. When you pop it out just make sure you have upward pressure on the mainspring housing (backstrap) or it will slip down and you’ll have to realign it. I’m sure someone on YT has a video 👍
Never seen a Staccato Run without problems vs Bul Armory they just run Eat Everthing dirty or not they are made to Work not to be worked on !
Interesting what other people’s experiences are. Both have run great for me 👍
Top review as allways love your Chanel,I use bull sas pro 4.5 and I love him like one of me kids%)
Also prove thet we isreals can make epic pistols
Glad you enjoyed the video! Bul Armory is great! 😎🙌
Amazing review. Which grip module is better for smaller hands? I've felt an XC and will shoot it soon and it felt great in my hands. Does the SAS Tac pro have thicker grips similar to a Staccato C2?
The Bul might be a little thicker, but just barely. Nearly imperceptible. The Staccato CS and the upcoming Staccato C are the best options for small hands, though 👍
Country of origin is big if you need warranty service that can only be had by the manufacturer. I have several Staccatos but would like to get my hands on a Bul SAS II ultralight.
Fair enough 👍
Pretty sure BUL handles warranty work here in the states for the last couple years. Haven't needed it but then again, I pretty much void every warrantee regardless of how long! I like to tune my stuff...
How did you purchase your Bul Armory?
People are buying second hand Bul Armory for 500-600 over msrp right now
Wow, that’s crazy
Oh, I love this comparison as well. It seems like a very natural comparison, I saw another channel compare the Staccato to the 320 Legion of whatever variety, which seemed like too much of a difference in price for a good comp. I wonder about the Tac Pro vs the Staccato P, since it's a lot closer in price.
I don’t care where they are made, that includes the gun. Holosun 4 life
Fair enough 👍 Holosun is blowing everyone out of the water. The race is over and they won by a landslide.
This is a really good comparison. I had been looking at (relatively) affordable 2011’s and many compare these two. You covered some great points, info I hadn’t heard before, and some really good personal experiences. Thanks! Also still not sure I want to jump into the 2011 market, so for the price I am seriously considering a Sig P226 Legion SAO. Feels GREAT in the hand, including the safety which is not always the case on 2011’s. Have you had any experience with one?
I’m glad you enjoyed the vid! The Sig P226 Legion SAO is great, it’s just a different animal. 100% boils down to personal preference.
Great video!
😎👍
How many people don’t do anything to their staccato that won’t void the warranty? Sounds like if you do anything at all, tough 💩. If that’s true, lifetime warranty means nothing.
Fair enough. Like I said, they will normally still take care of you as long as you don’t do anything crazy. (Stippling for example is usually overlooked) But they reserve the right to tell you to pound sand on paper. Something to consider.
Great videos my guy.
I got the XC and the Bul SAS Tac ii light 4.25in (no optic). From my end, the XC is a much better gun. I wish someone could compare my Bul SAS Tac ii light vs. Your Bul SAS Tac ii :)
😎👍
Anyone has info on where to get the Bul Armory? Their site shows sold out and haven’t heard back from their customer service.
Make sure you are on their official U.S. Store site. There are scam sites out there. Then you have to get on the email notification list and wait. Or get lucky on G Broker
Please keep up the pro content!!!!
😎👍
1800 bucks for the Bul SAS II tac is crazy cheap… in northern europe the cheapest SAS II is 3300 USD 😂
Yikes! 😅
Funny this video auto played right after I asked in a previous comment
😂👍
Thanks for this wonderful video! I'm looking to purchase my first handgun this year. I'm in NYC and I'm expecting my fingerprinting in May in couple of months.
I'm split between these two guns. I really like the Staccato for the life time warranty.
Staccato C2 with compensator and the Bul Armory SAS II 4.25 Tactical with the compensator. Reading the forums the optics and flashlight is going to be the same. What would you all recommend for a newbie like me.
So far none of the videos I looked at didn't cover how well these guns fire 50 yards, 100 yards and more... Both guns are very accurate from what I've researched up to about 50 yards.
I’m glad you enjoyed the video and congrats on your first upcoming handgun purchase! 🙌
If I were you, I’d invest in the Staccato. Being in NYC, if you have any issues with the gun in your lifetime it’ll be much easier to warranty. For a flashlight I recommend the SureFire X300 and for a dot I recommend the Holosun 507 Comp.
The main reason no one covers accuracy is because most modern auto loaders are far more accurate than anyone can be freehand shooting. Both of these guns will shot one-hole groups from a vice with quality ammunition.
Thanks man! Really appreciate your videos, I'm going to take heart about your recommendations. I'll keep you posted when I get it and make a comment on one of your future videos!
@@DaoistMonkey Right on! Keep me posted! 😎👍
The optics remark was silly but it’s fits you perfectly, put whatever you want on your weapon if you want to, didn’t know you get cool points for having a certain name brand on your weapon smh the foolish people and their thinking
Just some light teasing. I don’t judge anyone until we get down to the Amazon or wish dot com optics on nice pistols 😂
It’s spot on though. No holding back on buying the pistol but going budget on optics and lights.
Where did you get your bul armory? I have wanted one and finding it has been impossible.
I have to be careful as not to bring down the wrath of the YT gods’ A.I. for saying anything about acquiring something in this category… but if you can’t get one on their website, you have to get lucky on g-broker, a-list, or used at a local shop.
I’d like to see your opinion on a Stealth Arms Platypus comparison with these two.
Coming right up! Stay tuned! 😎👍
Thank you for your video! I inially looked at the Sig Sauer P226 MK25. However, I learned that I cannot configure the MK25 with a Holosun or better green dot and flashlight. Then, I looked at the Springfield DS Prodigy, Dan Wesson DWX/DWX-C, Beretta M9A1 and A4, and the bul Armory SAS II. I really liked the DWX full-size. However, I may not appreciate its weight. My only issue with the Bul Armory is the ported barrels. The last thing I want is debris, flash, or gases blinding me when I have to discharge my pistol.
Whatever pistol I choose, the pistol must have a trigger safey, a beaver tail and grip to fit my large hands, and easy to clean and maintain. What is your thoughts?
Thank you.
JP
The DWX is a great shooter! Have you looked at the CZ Shadow 2 or the Shadow 2 Compact? And btw, you can get the Bul Armory without the ported barrel 👍
@@NightwoodGuns - I only watched a few RUclips videos on the CZ Shadow 2. Which pistol do you recommend, the Bul SAS II Tac, CZ Shadow, or DWX? Thank you!
@@johnpeterka8355 You honestly can’t make a bad decision with those options! 👍 What do you want to do with it? Carry, range, home defense, competition , etc?
I might pick up the SAS2
Great choice! Especially with the new models inbound
Staccato gives you all the plate when you buy a XC. Then in mid 2023 (I think) they would send you the plate for the dot you are going to mount on your model P.
Good to know! 👍 I’m glad they are changing things!
You should also include some reviews of the amine and comics you own, make more money
I’ll probably create a separate channel for that once I hit 100k over here 👍
Maybe you could use an old toothbrush now and then to lessen dead skin cell build up on the grips.
I’m in AZ is there any shops out here that carries the Bul sas tac?
Nope, only can be ordered from Bul
@@NightwoodGuns thanks bro 🙏🏾
😎👍
Love my SAS II UL
😎👍
*I am not having anything to do with new Staccato, now that they are licking the taint of LEOs.*
Graphic, but that's how I feel about that.
For a second I panicked because I thought *I* typed this comment and let the intrusive thoughts win. 😮💨
@@NightwoodGuns ROFL
Question to Nightwood Guns about accessories: What best closed-emitter sight and gunlight would you put on the Staccato XC? What best closed-emitter sight and gunlight would you put on the Bul Armory SAS II TAC 4.25?
No budget constraints? Trijicon RCR and a SureFire X300 👍 The Holosun 509T is also great and the Holosun EPS is a solid choice if you want lightweight/low profile. I’d still stick with the X300ub though 😎
@@NightwoodGuns thank you!!
@@nate2B1 😎👍
I like your JoJo background. Good video
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed 👍
Honestly, who the hell actually appendix-carries full-size 2011s? Other than those on RUclips, I don’t know anyone that does. Maybe I’m wrong, but it’s a RUclips fad that will be replaced with another ridiculous fad.
That said, I would pick the Stacatto due to higher quality and ability to customize. Good review!
Honestly, I hate being lumped in with the fad crowd. I grew up shooting 1911s and I competed in single stack as a teenager before switching to STI 2011s. I always said that I didn’t carry a 1911 because of capacity, but I would carry a 2011 the second they made them reliable enough for serious use. And I put my money where my mouth was once STI became Staccato and made their Gen 2 guns 👍 Glad you enjoyed the review 😎
@@NightwoodGuns I did enjoy it! Hey, whatever works for you, that’s an individual’s decision on what/how to carry. I’m very physically fit, it just isn’t for me.
Do you recommend BUL SAS ultralight for EDC?
I have not personally tested it, so I cannot make a recommendation.
Ngl kinda concerning how well you did that zesty voice 💀💀💀
👀🤣
Both is the only way to go
Agreed 😂👍
Great review! You think you can review some of the m&p compact lineup too?
I’d love to, I just need more of them 😅👍
Do you know if Staccato would void the warranty if I added a comp to it myself? That's the only thing I would plan on doing to it. They sell it with a threaded barrel, so I wouldn't think attaching anything to it would void it, but who knows?
I wouldn't have thought FN would void the SCAR warranty for using a suppressor, but it turns out they do.
That should be fine. Unless you get the comp stuck on there with Rocksett and send it in 😂
I’d ask staccato
What optics are on both?
So tempted to order an XC.
Great vid! Is the removal of the magwell on the BUL affect anything? Like magazine sticking out or something?
Nope, you just need a shorter MSH pin for the swap 👍
Many thanks!@@NightwoodGuns
Sorry apples to oranges comparison. XC all day!
Well, yeah! Thats why I had a disclaimer that basically said “pretend this is a comparable Staccato P” 😂👍 The XC beats everything!
hi from Tucson Arizona.
Howdy neighbor! 👋🤠
Sup brett lol QUESTION! what would you recommend for a "first time expensive gun buy" as far as handguns go? I got $2300 to spend.
I’d say an LTT Beretta. If you can squeeze some more cash, I’d go Staccato. A Stealth Arms Platypus would be a fun option. If you want to go with a striker gun, you can always build out a great customized piece like a Glock with a Radian Ramjet or an M&P done up by Monsoon Tactical or Floyd’s Custom Shop.
Cz tso. Runs faster than my 2011s.
Bul Armory are impossible to find. I have looked for months. I emailed Bul Armory USA and this was the response I got back "At this time, we currently do not work with any dealers, distributors or wholesalers. We are direct to customers and all online only." That concerns me and should concern anyone. If it's that impossible to find one in stock and there are no dealers or distributors in the USA, we are stuck with anecdotal reviews (not knocking you) and ridiculous overpriced aftermarket pricing on these.
It boils down to the fact that they can’t make enough to send out to distributors. They refuse to sacrifice quality to pump out higher volume and they sell out instantly online when they are in stock. It’s understandable that right now they don’t go through dealers because they don’t need the middle men at the moment. Everyone just signs up for the in stock notification on their US site and then it’s a race to buy what they have before they sell out in minutes. I wish it wasn’t that way, but high demand and low supply isn’t the worst place to be for a company.
