The C V3 DPO combines Staccato’s 2011 platform with a compact, carryable footprint. Its 3.9-inch bull barrel and aluminum-alloy frame balance shootability and weight, while the steel slide provides durability and smooth cycling.
The DPO slide comes optics-ready from the factory and ships here with the Dawson Precision cover plate installed. Front and rear cocking serrations and lightening cuts near the muzzle aid manipulation and reduce slide mass. Iron sights consist of a Dawson fiber-optic front and a black rear on the DPO plate.
V3 enhancements include a 9mm-focused magazine system with slimmer grip geometry and an external extractor. The textured 2011-pattern double-stack grip with Staccato star logos, flared magazine well, and 17+1 capacity support quick reloads and confident control.
Controls include an ambidextrous thumb safety and a beavertail grip safety, paired with a straight-profile, skeletonized single-action trigger. The dust-cover rail offers a true mounting surface for lights or accessories, and the pistol is marked FLORENCE, TX USA.
