It would be in open. CO guns cannot be single action and must be on the production gun list. As for it being competitive, It would be in the right hands. Shane Coley has won a lot of limited and open championships with a Glock.Is the Stacatto P Duo legal for carry optics in USPSA? I know magwell are permitted and I don’t know how if the Stacatto’s Magwell bumps it to open class or if it’s removable. I’m also curious how well the Stacatto would compete against the more expensive pistols in STI’s lineup for competition use only

2 Questions
1.How much is the Chambers cut for an optic?
2. Do you think it would be worth doing a Chambers cut for an RMR or ACRO vs getting the DUO system?
1. Check his website for the exact pricing. Plate was $125, milling was $165 IIRC. He is selling the plate not doing the milling. He has 2 shops that he is using to mill the slide for the plate, you pick which shop you want to use. I looked at Buhlers work and it looked good so that's who I went with.
The duo system has stainless steel pins for the rmr as well, and plates for the acro are in testing. The duo is cut more than 1 degree down towrds the muzzle. Just an fyi so you have the correct info. I have not used any of the other mounting systems listed.1) The chambers plate (RDSM) sits significantly lower in the slide than the DUO or the Trijicon plate. This matters for shooting as well as holster compatibilty.
2) The RDSM aligns with standard height sights.
3) The RDSM is designed to work well with ALL optics the plate is available for (currently the RMR and soon the ACRO). The STI system only works well with the DPP; everything else is "just ok."
4) The RDSM holds the optic TIGHT and has significant, stainless steel recoil bosses. Think of it as the difference in fit between a generic RMR cut and an ATEI custom cut. I don't know how tight an STI or Trjicon plate is, but I'm willing to bet the RDSM is more secure. What's holding the RMR from moving front and back in the mount on an STI plate? Nothing but the screws.
5) The RDSM is mounted at 1degree angle to align with the barrel of a 1911/2011. This makes presentation quicker. The STI plate is also at this angle; I don't know about the trijicon but it probably isn't.
6) You can't get a trijicon plate without tritium. Personal preference but it seems like a lot of people are picking up on the very very narrow window of tritium usefulness and moving away from it. I don't have that problem with the RDSM; flat black irons that do their job well and don't interfere with the optic.
7) RDSM is not cost prohibitive; total cost is on par with everything else out there.
If you're mounting an optic on a 1911/2011 type pistol I think the RDSM is the way to go.
We didnt make it for competition, so I have no idea if it meets the rules or not.Is the Stacatto P Duo legal for carry optics in USPSA?
