The ambi slide catch looks pretty similar to what Oracle is using on the 2311. I wonder if it will be captured or removable once the main piece is removed.

Is the slide cut for the Holosun K footprint? It certainly seems like it won't be DPO plate compatible.

I assume this is a P augment or eventual replacement.

 

I'd assume some sort of ambi or reversible mag release will be part of this.

 

As a lefty, this looks great. Don't care about ambi mag catch because I use my trigger finger for all autos, but a right side slide catch is very nice to have.

Wonder if it will be sold as drop in..

 

as a left handed shooter I approve this message

 

They're taking care of the wrong handers.

 

welcome to 2025 equality for all-handers

 

Lefties (handed) getting their justice

 

I sure hope this is a left handed version. the OA2311 is ass ugly.

 

What are the odds they make it double action?

 

Its not already? Coulda sworn I read that here someplace.

 

Rumor on another forum is that Staccato will introduce a Glock magazine pistol at SHOT. Anything is possible I suppose.

 

I am new to the 2011 platform and don't own a staccato, but this does interest me as I think that a significant percentage of 2011 failures over the years are the direct result of poor magazine design. I do acknowledge that Mags have come a long way in the past decade, but are simply not to the reliability levels of say a Glock or AR mag.

I have a Prodigy that I really like but have shot a platypus and it's a cool gun, I would pick one up. the only criticism I have is the one piece lower precludes the option of swapping out grip modules at a later date.

 

Couple more weeks! Keep the guesses comin! If I remember right, they will reveal 1 week prior to shot.

 

Too many rumors about it taking Glock mags. Think it’s true? I wouldn’t mind since I have so many. Probably more reliable.

 

Platypus took a nice bite out of the reasonably-priced 2011 market. LE agencies likely have a lot of Glock magazines laying around. They’re cheap and you can run a variety of sizes depending on grip module length. It could be a smart move. Or total flop.

 

As unlikely as it seems to me maybe there is something to the Glock mag rumors. Note the drawing of the slide stop.

 

when a PD changes sidearms i was under the impression that they traded in the existing guns and accessories. my LGS buys a lot of those trade ins and accessories.

 

could be, but remains the fact that they're still cheap, available, and easy to find.

 

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say there is a 0% chance of a Glock mag staccato after they released their own proprietary v3 mags.

 

I am happy to see this, however I am going to wait and see if it makes it onto the XC model. I frankly have little interest in the other lines at this point

 

Found this picture on social media. Looks interesting

 

Redesign your pistol just to take some other manufacturer's mag design??? Why would you do such a thing when you just introduced your own new-and-improved mag design, developed your newest pistols to take said mags, and you can charge a pretty penny for them because people keep buying your little black pistols for $2,500+???

If someone wants to use Glock mags, let them buy a Glock.

 

I would not look at it as another manufactures mag design so much as making a variant that is compatible with most common mag on the planet.

Every new 5.56 rifle on the planet is based around the AR mag. its common, its reliable, affordable, and it simply works. Thats not the case with 2011 mags. are 2011 mags better now than 10 years ago, of course, but mags are still the weak link in the 2011 platform.

the mag issue kept me on the sideline for a while, its currently keeping at least two glock shooting friends on the sideline despite liking how 2011's shoot.

i have a prodigy that I like, would I buy a P, probably not, would I but a glock compatible variant, maybe.

 

I don't see Staccato moving to a generic mag platform and losing magazine revenue from industry and commercial customers....

 

Those pictures look like an ambi-slide stop. It makes no sense for Staccato to spend time and money with the new V3 mags and grips just to turn around and use Glock mags… Now if you just want something to talk about in fantasy land… Yep, Glock mags!

 

if they use glock mags they could possibly have more product margin in the firearm itself. perhaps this is a financial decision if true. more revenue possibly with the firearm and no worry on making anything on the magazines. some people will pay a little more to have a Glock mag 2011 with a big boy name.

i would buy an OA2311 just because i like the 320 mags, they are plentiful and reliable. but the firearm itself is so ugly i just can’t do it...Yet

 

This.

I like 2011's

I have a Prodigy, IMO, the P does not offer such an increase in performance that it would warrant me taking a hit diverging myself of my Prodigy and Atlas mags. With that being said. Having a common mag variant is interesting.

I have NEVER seen an Atlas, or Staccatto mag in a local gun shop or sporting good store like bass pro or sportsmans warehouse and while i have no issues ordering online, the normies out there may see this barrier to entry.

options are good a good thing.

 

External extractor too, so continuing to build on their C/CS platform? A move away from the new mag they just introduced would be an interesting twist.

 

Looking at the pictures and the videos, I don't see a hammer. Could this be an internal hammer like Smith's ez line? Or are is it Striker fired?

 

A striker fired pistol, with a comfortable 2011 style, metal grip module would be interesting.

I have a friend considering getting a 700-dollar metal grip for his 320.

 

Looks like it is possibly going to take the new Aimpoint sight being introduced for the Glock on the 8th of Jan.

 

My initial thought is they are simply expanding the lineup using the new, slimmer mags and grip with a few tweaks. But who knows. SHOT isn't that far away, so won't be long now.

 

LoL... Its going to be something that has some relation to glock.

 

Striker fired steel frame with 1911 trigger and grip angle that takes their new mags? Competes with glock and the H9 conceptually, though probably not on cost.
