    Thanks. Great information. I will say my favorite part was when you said, "We're going to rack that slide three times." as you racked it ten times. I liked it because that's pretty much how I count to three also.

    I have to say.
    The DLC makes cleaning very easy.
    Any decent lube, 6 q tips, a rag, and bore snake, you are gtg.
    Carbon just wipes away, maybe a brush on the breech face, q tips in the tight spaces, I put a drop of oil on the hammer hooks, barrel lugs, rails, and the tip of the disconnector.
    I lock the slide back and set the toolless guide rod, then pull the slide stop, and slide, but Tony's way works fine as well.
    So much easier than wrestling a barrel bushing, and recoil system.
    Love my P, and clean after each range trip.
    It only takes 5 or so minutes.

I think I slipped and put slide stop in at wrong position and jammed slide. Sent back to get slide stop pin back out. May be able to just push on slide stop hard with punch to get back out. Warranty repair very fast next day mail paid by staccato wow thanks also for installing and zero my delta point pro. Well worth the money for me safety apendex carry LAS holster. Thumb stop safety helps with recoil and training is so natural to use it. With this gun it is almost impossible to have a accidental discharge when holster gun. Love my new Staccato!

    27 years LEO. last 15+ with a Kimber 1911, TLR2, only problems were when my magazine spring were old. Recently purchased at 2011, my gift to me as I enter the last 5 years of my career. I cleaned and lubed as described and then carried it. During a class for red dots all I had was problems on the first day. To the point I started to distrust the gun. Failure to extract, failed to lock back. Could not complete a string of fire without a problem. Took it home cleaned it and the next day ran it wet. Literally had oil coming dripping. Ran with no problems. I’m going to go back to grease, if you use this gun for duty oil the …. out of it.

    I am shooting a factory 1911. Is the recoil master system a vast improvement in absorbing the felt recoil of the slide cycle compared to the traditional 1911 system? What are the improvements you see overall?

    • @thefrogking481
      @thefrogking481 2 года назад +2

      Many things play a part in felt recoil. The biggest change to me is proper recoil spring weight. Lighter springs will allow for faster travel and can increase felt recoil. Too heavy of a spring will cause a faster return to battery and noticeable "dip" on return. It's a balancing act. This is also load dependant.
      There is really no true way to reduce physical recoil, but "felt recoil" can be managed. You can always tune your springs to your load. Most factory springs are designed to shoot a wide variety of loadings for reliability. Tuning or adjusting your springs can cause issues, depending on load. Major class springs 18 pound plus (heavier) will slam the return. (With minor loads PF) causing dip. Minor springs (less than 16 pounds) can cause loading and ejection issues with factory loads.
      The recoil master or tool less system will not fit all models of 1911's, it really depends on make and model.
      The only reason I gave my 2 cents is because nobody else seemed to address your question.
      Hopefully I was a little help. I've been running 1911/2011 pistols for 30 plus years professionally, personally and when I competed.

  • @christopherjohnson2171
    @christopherjohnson2171 3 года назад

    I find the C2 really hard to reassemble, the guide rod always wants to pop down when putting the slide back on. With the P/XC/XL I don't have any issue there because though it wants to do the same I keep the spring captured and the guide rod as far forward as possible. Then when its all lined up I just bring the slide to the rear fully which releases the part that captures the spring and voila.

    • @JohnZ556
      @JohnZ556 3 года назад +1

      Same here, got constantly holding it during takedown and reassembly so it doesn't pop out. Not a big deal tho, just have to remember to hold it.

      Trust the trigger STI installed, they've been doing this a long time. If a flat face had any advantage the boys in Texas would've installed it initially. The new Staccatos are designed more for duty/performance, and they do it extremely well.

Let us know if you have any additional questions. Always happy to answer! Our customer service email is: customerservice@staccato2011.com

    STI made it much easier than their origional models, no more "L" shaped paperclips!
    Yeah, been using them since Virgil built my first one many years ago. Nowadays their not nearly as finicky and much more reliable and my EDC is a C2 DPO....only suggestion is that STI would do like their neighbors building Glock Clones (Shadow Systems) and mill a direct mount, no plates.
    With that said nothing ( including my Nighthawk) shoots as well to me as my STI's.
    To me they'll always be STI.

      The DPO system is a direct mount for a leupold DPP/shield RMS/Sig romeo standard. I bet many would prefer the trijicon RMR as a direct mill, but I think they're being smart going with what's going to be the mount used by the military with the P320.

      Prob won't hurt besides leaking out during storage and range session. Sometimes it's a good idea to over-lube it for the first big range session to ensure a smooth brake-in period.

      I prefer the well made, proven CLPs for gun care; Ballistol 🇩🇪, Froglube Extreme 🐸, Slip 2000 EWL. It's good to use a CLP that's non toxic, no fumes 🤭, easy to apply. I recently got Slip 2000 EWL & it's a great product for cleaning, lubricating. Avoid WD40 or products which may harm or damage your firearm. If you keep the gun loaded or load spare magazines, inspect those & the ammunition often. Sometimes; lint, crud, CLP or dust may seep into the mags. I also leave a round or 2 off a carry/duty magazine to reduce the tension on the pistol magazine spring.
