The CS v3 configuration pairs a compact 2011 platform with a 3.5-inch stainless bull barrel and a Dawson Precision 3.5-inch tool-less captive recoil system. The result is a short, rigid barrel assembly with a maintenance-friendly recoil setup.
The slide is finished matte black with front and rear angled cocking serrations and dovetailed sights. Sight picture is fast and uncluttered thanks to a fiber-optic front (red rod) and a plain black rear.
The frame is machined from 7075 aluminum alloy and includes an accessory rail with a single cross-slot. Controls include an ambidextrous thumb safety, a beavertail grip safety with memory pad, a left-side magazine release, and a skeletonized commander-style hammer.
The trigger is a skeletonized, curved aluminum unit with three lightening holes. The textured polymer grip module carries the Staccato star logo, contributing to secure handling while maintaining the compact form factor.
Approximate dimensions include a 7.1 in overall length, ~5.6 in height, ~1.2 in width (about 1.45 in across the ambidextrous safeties), and an empty weight of ~22.7 oz. Capacity is 16+1. Markings include STACCATO CS on the right slide, 20★11 on the left slide, STACCATO CS v3 and FLORENCE, TX USA on the underside of the dust cover, and 9x19 on the barrel, with a small U.S. flag motif on the frame. Barrel and frame display matching serial markings.
