I'd like to own a Staccato P https://staccato2011.com/handguns/staccato-p/

... but I'm a little put off by the price of the gun, the price of mags, and the odd-ness of the slide/frame that makes them somewhat non-1911ish when searching for holsters.

... as you've strayed from only 1911/2011 in subsequent posts (though a 1911/Glock guy probably won't like this one)

For a metal gun, I'd probably choose a Beretta 92X 92X Full Size Pistol | Beretta

... lower cost gun, lower cost (and known reliable) mags, though the 92X does have its' own holster issues.

And in all honesty, one look at Wilson’s, Nighthawks, or some of the boutique 2011s really deadens the blow for the price of a Staccato.

The price of the gun is the thing that bothers me the least of the concerns I brought up.

Admittedly, I don't follow double stack 1911/2011 mags as much as I do single stack 1911 mags, even though we have a thread like this ...

Best 1911 Mag?

Which is the best and most reliable 8 round 1911 mag?

... I feel significantly more confident in the reliable options for single stack 1911 mags than I do for the options available for 2011's. If my $35 CMC PowerMag doesn't work, I probably have four or five other solid options in $20 - $40 price range I could try out. If my $70 Staccato mags don't work, I'm not sure what my options would be.

Regarding mags and my Beretta 92 comment above - pretty much all Beretta 92 mags are pretty good, and they are readily available, and not very expensive.
