This all-new compact carry model furthers Staccato’s mission to deliver duty-proven, precision-built pistols trusted by professionals and responsibly armed citizens alike.

The Staccato HD C4X joins the brand’s lineup as one of the most shootable, precise, and versatile pistols, delivering the unrivaled performance and features of the Staccato HD line in a compact platform.

The Staccato HD C4X will be available in three configurations, with an MSRP starting at $3,499, and will be offered through authorized Staccato dealers and on www.staccato2011.com beginning February 16th. “The Staccato HD line continues to evolve based on real-world use and direct feedback from professionals and customers,” said Paul Smith, Vice President of Product at Staccato. “With the Staccato HD C4X, we set out to create a compact and extremely versatile pistol that can confidently be carried on duty, for personal protection, or both. This platform reflects our commitment to giving customers a high-performance option they can trust in any situation.”

The brand also introduced the Staccato Training Group (STG), an elite training program with a mission to elevate shooting and tactical proficiency for professionals and tactical enthusiasts through comprehensive live and online education. STG brings together some of the mostexperienced, respected, and decorated shooting and tactical instructors in the United States to provide real-world, performance-driven instruction rooted in proven experience.

STG will be led by Staccato’s newly appointed Vice President of Training and Competition, Max Michel, one of the world’s top pistol shooters for nearly three decades. Joining Michel in creating and leading STG’s program will be a distinguished team of world-renowned instructors, including KC Eusebio, Randy Tweedy, Chris Palmer, Erik Wollen, and a select group of elite

STG will launch a professional certification program in spring 2026 to certify U.S.-based professional and tactical instructors under a unified standard.
