  • I have had time on all 3 of these pistols. Each has some unique features. Huge shout out to Taran Tactical for sending me out a brand new Sand Viper to T&E, Same goes for Nighthawk Customs for sending out the TRS comp, these pistols are in very high demand, and NHC sent out a TRS comp with all the upgrades one could as for. The staccato is one of my personal daily blasters.

      Glad I could help. Just remember is you choose to a active retention holster like one of our rds holsters or a black hawk holster. The SRO will be an issue due to its length. If you go with any other Reddot. (Which I recommend) your holster options are endless.

      No the dot makes a huge difference. For a shooter who is at a non master level. It’s very difficult to rat hole a target at 25yds. Same application goes a scoped rifle. If the weapon set is not 100% dialed does not matter how good the shooter is.

      And the performance long term. And the craftsmanship when it comes to brands like Nighthawk, Cabot, Wilson combat, Alchemy etc. those brands and pistols will hold their value far longer than a Staccato will. And their performance will still be there simply due to the craftsmanship in the pistol from the start.

    Being that 2011s are flat as fuuu already - You should do a short and have Crispy get some slow mo shots of comp'd vs some do not have a comp. I can't imagine seeing/feeling the benefit of a comp'd gun - but easily could be just my experience level. The more I see the XC and handle it, the more I am liking the thought of having one as an option for range/training class 2011. I thought your points on cadence and distance were great points! Another great video guys - a completely diff angle and discussion here.👏

    Finally !!! I like your channel but you kinda talk down the staccato XC in my opinion. You finally gave it some props. It’s ok to like what you like but when you say the XC is a good 3200 gun but say nothing about the 5-7 k guns value or cost it just felt like you had a bias against staccato. Again , like your content , but noticed some bias. ✌🏻

    • @rdrgear
      @rdrgear  Год назад +4

      Appreciate the feedback. I do not believe the Stacatto’s are priced proportionally to what you get. In regards to features and parts. Once you get to the 5500+ mark. Those guns often have options, finishes, cuts grip modules etc. So I try not to get too deep on price because it can vary. But you make a solid observation. That I can definitely work on with all my reviews. Thank you.

      False the XC with a comp will not outshoot a custom prodigy with a comp or slide comp period. The prodigy already shoots softer adding the comp and internals makes it insanely soft and accurate. And, it only costs $800 bucks total for the upgrades so you are maybe spending 2100 to 2400 total and that is stretching it.

      1. Is there a budget? With 2011’s in general. I feel it’s wise to have one. It will help you in what you look at.
      2. Purpose. Example. Are you more a Tactical pistol shooter/student. Do you take classes? Or are you a match shooter. If so, how many matches a month. Uspsa, 2 gun, 3 gun outlaw etc. This will help you determine the style of pistol and what features you may want out the box.
      3. Gear, if you got a budget. Add 1k to it. For belt, holster and additional magazines. The 1k will cover you pretty much any direction. And may leave a few bucks for additional mags.
      With these 3 questions, I can give you my honest answer, more importantly WHY I am saying what I am saying. And I can give you some alternates. That I have shot but not had the opportunity to review on the channel.

How they were the tones who trained Keanu Reeves for John Wick "gunplay"...the character was an "assassin" not a 3-Gun competitor :)) Why they didn't send Keanu to a "combat focused" trainer, ex-SPEC OPS man...shrug.....
