towards the end of the cold war in the nineties, at that point in time, you know, you've got baby Glocks and, and car arms is, is, is, is on the market.

You know, uh, uh, the Walther hasn't quite released the PPS yet.

Uh,

But the Smith & Wesson Chief Special, semi-autos, they were surpassed with technology.

But because James Bond carried it, I think that its reputation continued to live on.

Yeah.

And so it's kind of like the M1 Garand.

The M1 Garand was a fantastic gun in its time period.

As time has gone on, no.

Would a modern soldier take an M1 Garand in a battle?

Not if he had another choice.

You know, say they go, I'm carrying a 1911 right now, but that is mostly because of magazine limitations.

And while I have said the 2011s have essentially revitalized that gun and really kind of brought it forward into competing with other stuff, especially since actually Dan from Alaska just mentioned to me, I hadn't even seen that because I hadn't looked at all the specs.

But he noted that the staccatos are actually now made with lightweight aluminum frames.

And so the staccato, which one is this?

Yeah, the staccato CS, that's the 3.5-inch barrel.

And it weighs 23 ounces.

And then the C, which is a four inch gun, because he was saying, actually, it's, you know, he's like, isn't the staccato roughly the same size and weight as the Glock?

I'm like, well, it's Glock 19.

I'm like, well, it's definitely the same size, give or take.
